I got lucky getting 2 from SaddleUp. Soon after that I hear stories on how he ghosted a lot of people who paid and did not receive goods.

Which is exactly why i wouldn’t collect a dime until it’s ready to ship.

I could agree with that if it is for a standard size you planned to offer. If it was a custom design, I would at least ask for a down payment to cover some time/materials if they decide to walk. At least on a standard SKU you could simply sell it to the next customer wanting that style.

I agree with all you’re saying….but this is a potential side gig to pay for hobbies. U less I get real serious, it’s going to be simple.

How is the fit for the bronco? My covers would be top quality materials and last a long time….but those prices are ridiculous cheap.

If you are into sewing, I would be interested in a high-end bikini top that utilizes nicer materials than my Bestop made, vinyl type bikini top.
