I know this thread is old, but i just happen to come across it again, and decided to vent since I'm going through a case of waiting for delivery, and having uncertainty on when exactly it'll get delivered. And let me be clear, I don't doubt that I'm gonna get my custom, it's just a matter of when. All factors considered, this is currently the longest wait I've ever had for a custom wait, and it could go even longer.
I had a custom that was set to be shot about 3 weeks ago, but the producer got caught up in his own ideas that he wanted to do as well, and mine along with a couple other customs didn't get filmed that day. So he scheduled to have the models come back in two weeks so the remaining customs could get shot. Which was a little frustrating I'll admit, but getting them to come back in two weeks I was happy with. I've seen cases of models not coming back for months because of other already pre-planned travel dates. So they came back not this most recent Friday, but the Friday before that, which was the last Friday of July. My idea was made, and I was told that it may be about 10 days after the shoot date that the idea gets delivered, since he had another big shoot in exactly one week, which started on the first Friday of August and went into the weekend. Which was this past weekend.
Well I find out today that now the producer is even more backlogged with customs, and that he's decided to not have any big travel shoots for the entire month of August so he can get to editing and sending out customs to everyone waiting. Which is good, but he's apparently only gonna be able to edit on the weekends. And I have no idea how he's gonna send the ideas out. So my current wait, which is almost at a month if you consider the original set shoot date, could extend another 1-4 weeks. I'd hope that the customers who have been waiting since mid-July would get theirs sent out first, but I have no idea how it's gonna go. This is the drawback when you have a producer who does fetish stuff only part-time I guess.
And I'm not trying to bash this producer, he's been my main guy since 2015 and I've loved what he's produced for me over that span, I just think that at times he overbooks himself, and sometimes it results in situations like this where customs get their delivery dates pushed back and back.
