OT: Hams and payment - Rose's experiences

[Ken G Kopp]

I pretty much agree with Don on the honesty of Hams.

I always prefer PayPal as a method of payment, either
direction and my rating is 100% for almost 300 transactions.

That being said ... most of you know that "Rose" (N7HKW)
of Elecraft Cases and Covers is my Lady.  She's sewn
several thousand cases and dust covers since 2008.
Only five customers have taken advantage of her, and
all are regulars here on the Elecraft reflector.

Two are in the UK and refused delivery of completed
cases, which were returned (cost free) via the British
Postal system. Took months!  Apparently neither was
aware of the import duty and refused their orders.

One was a case for a lawyer in Atlanta who claims to
have paid, but can't / won't show any evidence of doing
so.

One is a well-known California DX'er and the other is
an almost daily poster here on the reflector.  He ordered
a KX3 case and refuses to pay for it.  She uses both as
displays on her convention display table. (;-)

Because of the above, she requests payment when she's
ready to sew an order, and the order isn't shipped until
payment has been received.  The customer always gets
a preview photo of the order, BTW.

73!

To prospective Rose's Cases purchasers:

I have purchased several of Rose's products and let me tell you: they
are tough as nails!  My KX3 bag has traveled thousands of miles and
hikes and is no worse for the wear.  She communicates quickly if there
are any questions, and her products are custom, beautiful, and extremely
well crafted.  Her cases are a very good value in this day of disposable
cheap imports.

I am a very happy Rose's Cases customer.

The K2 case Rose custom made for me [with space for batteries, paddle,
log, audio amp, and headphones for field operation] is perfect, just
what I wanted, and as Howie says, "tough as nails." Mine's been to a
number of summits, it fits very cleanly into my pack with room for the
AlexLoop, and shows no wear at all.  Very well padded, K2 shows no wear
either.   Nicely embroidered too.  I'm also a very happy customer.
