what i find frustrating is just not knowing what is going on. when i had a mandolin made for me i noticed on site it said the waiting list was 5 years for a mandolin to be made by this maker. another maker of instruments said you send in a deposit and then just wait, he said you just have to wait but he wouldn’t commit to a timeframe. also the person that told me he was ill was Beverly not Barbara, i got the names mixed up, i must have had Barbara in mind since i have seen her name on this site several times. my mistake.
here’s another experience, my wait time is now over a year. i was told to send another payment to begin the dying process so i did and now i still have nothing, i did not get a receipt. i was told the wait time for the dying process was about 3 weeks, that was almost 6 or more weeks ago. i did get the email from Barbara Dixon and i was told Chris was very ill but was getting better, so i thought i would hear something from him shortly, but nothing. so now i do not know anything about any harp being made for me and i’m out 600.00 also. now there is also the problem with cases so if i did have the harp how will i transport it. i also wanted to add more sharping levers, but because there is no communication going on i can see that would be pointless. i feel at this time i will not send any more money, i just wish now i had not ordered anything.
thanks a lot, i know what you say is true, and it is too bad i have to do anything like that. did the student ever get her harp. i will keep checking back to see what is going on with these instruments.
I too have not received anything either after sending a large amount of money to start the dying process and still have not gotten any email from Chris, only from Barbara Dixon. I have no idea what is going on and i have to say I too wish i did not order anything now. I was looking forward to this harp for months but I just don’t know what is going on. I keep checking my emails but nothing. I will keep looking at this thread though to see what has been happening with everyone else.
i heard from Barbara that Chris has been quite ill, and no i do not have my harp yet either and i do not know when it will be done, the last i heard was that it was ready to be dyed, but i have not heard anything since about a week ago when Barbara emailed me and told me Chris was getting better, but has been very sick.
