Has anyone else had problems getting stuff from the HAWGSMOKE snacko? I got the patches I ordered quick enough, but the t-shirt, mug and polished GAU-8 round I ordered a month ago still haven't arrived. I've tried emailing a few of the guys involved with the competition to no avail. I hate to file a complaint through PayPal, but if I don't hear anything soon I am afraid that will be my only course of action. If anyone can provide any help, I would be grateful.

Cheers! M2

Let me know if you get sorted, I have paid for the signed print and patch and whilst the money has been taken - nothing!! Been a while too!

Anyone know anything?

Here's what I got last Friday:

Got my mug, t-shirt and a few extras today, the polished round will be sent seperately. Beef is getting caught up, just be patient and everything will arrive shortly.

Cheers! M2

Yeah, be patient, guys. I think it took the better part of 3 months after I ordered the polished round to receive it. Even got the email saying it would "be sent out next week", but still took several to get it. So they are a little on the slow side, especially the polished round, but I did get it, and it was very good stuff!!! <img src=newicons/bounce.gif border=0 align=middle>

We know. But with all the orders they do have to fill, didn't want one to fall through the crack. The PE patch is stuck on my cube wall (looks strangely familiar, dice!<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>), the mug was christened with a Guinness last night.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Beef did email me last Wednesday, but for some reason his email went into the wrong folder (Bulk). He wrote"

<i>The bullets were delayed because the manufacturer ran out of shells and I had to ship him some more. Sorry for the delay the 65 hour work weeks have been kicking my ass.</i>

Fair enough. It was, as Goose so elequantly put it, "antz" on my part to get this cool stuff. Can't wait for the polished round to show up, but I will...

Cheers! M2

Beef must've just thrown it in as a sorry-it-took-so-long gimme. I didn't order it.

O' I know what you mean now. I gave "Mumbles" ( Lockheed Martin markting) the right to make some patches from my design...he must have given some to support Hawgsmoke 2006.

So is this patch different from the other two runs that you had done?

Cheers! M2

M2, slightly but, he did use my design. Looking at the patch it has small changes in color on a few items and other small changes like the laser beam is thicker but, the over-all design is the same.
