Progress...
Got eh final cost for the repro pixie winter tank suits from a vendor in Pakistan. cost for a made t- measure suit with hood - US$ 190. rough estimated cost to ship via DHL to the US is US$ 60 Rough cost to ship to Europe is US$80 More than one suit to the same address would be cheaper than just $60 x 3+$180. They had a major holiday there and Irfan expects to ship my second prototype next week. His DHL delivery for a few past items has been less than three days. This prototype is to use all the correct fabrics, zippers, and buckles, and include the waterproofing material in the upper chest/back and arms. The first prototype was to check for construction. I sent him pics of side-by-side changes with an original suit as a reference. ( such things as changing a square pocket corner to an angles one. No holes in the waistbelt, etc. The second prototype should be based on my size - measured over my BD jacket and trousers. I hope to see how that relates to my provided measurements so you all can send in the right numbers. If the repro fits well and the rest looks like a good repro, then I will post pics of all the details and how to order. I am not a dealer. I don't want to - can't afford to - buy a shipment and then resell them. I will try to set up a plan so that you each can send Ifan your measurements, addresses and PayPal your payments directly to him. He may set up a "batch period" where he needs a minimum order before setting up his shop for production work. Your order may or may not have a deposit required. I would imagine then, that final payment would be sent after the batch is complete and he can begin delivery. So... I am the guinea pig and fronted the development costs... you and Irfan will be customer and merchant. Usual buyer seller arrangements apply. |
