I totally get your frustration. It's one if the major downsides of dealing with very busy small businesses. You love the people, consider them amazing artists and friends, and so you feel really guilty ever expressing anything negative lest people see you as a jerk. In this case, however, your worry is certainly founded since it is so close to the deadline and they agreed to rush it for that date--so don't feel bad about venting because this wasn't just a random goal date you mentioned but a service that you actually paid for. I agree that making your own tail can be a weight off the shoulders (you know how you want it and when you want it.). I know Abby and Bryn take their word very seriously, so there is still hope you will have it in time! I had some communication issues, too, so that is probably normal since they are so busy. If it doesn't make it in time I am sure they will reimburse you the rush fee at the very least, though that may not be a great comfort. I will keep my fins crossed that you get it!Originally Posted by Blaze
Well still no final pics to share yet & honestly I'm pretty frustrated at this point since my tail & top were supposed to ship Monday for my promo shoot Saturday and event Sunday.
Yes, I know the girls are awesome, yes I know there are only two of them & they are super busy but still, I'm human & being this close to my need date I'm freaking out a bit & just can't keep it to myself anymore. Especially since I paid extra for the rush and was very specific on my wear date. Communication has been minimal & confusing/contradictory at times making me all the more frazzled. I'm a control freak which is why I make my own costumes for the most part.
*sigh* I really hate being down to the wire like this.

I was just saying that I have little experience 'outsourcing' awesomeness.
