[StoneChucker]

I can't resist, or pass up on this offer. I'll read through everything and give you exact details, but I'll be after a 2 piece, with CE armour (knees, elbows and shoulders) and Non-Ce(back and thighs), any KB patches that are on offer.

Hmm, I'm also going to have to buy it with a future size in mind, I'm currently under renovation

Oh hell, I'm going to have to juggle the books a bit

I would like to get 1x the B1122 with all the armours and knee sliders. So that will be $320 + shipping right?

What would the silver and white colour combination look like for B1122? Also, I take it all the one piece suits are the same quality, the only difference is the style?

I'm unsure of the size though, I'm thinking ill be a medium though? I'm 175cm tall, weigh 60kg and have a small build. Any body with similar dimensions?

Thanks

Total extra price for armour + knee sliders: 1 and 2 Piece (EUR$12 +EUR$2) = NZD$25

Cheers

All look pretty good, mate, good luck!! So its EUR$2 extra for knee sliders? Can i order just some knee sliders, like about 5 pairs maybe??

This sounds great, and i hate to be the voice of paranoia but someone's got to I think.
This guy is a new member!
Do any of the senior members know him? Where he lives (if he lives in NZ at all).
Lets face it 50 x $50 is not a bad little scam eh.
I'd hate to see 50 fellow members ripped off.
I'm sorry Wildcat, this is by no means a personal attack, maybe if you could make yourself known to one of our respected members.
Sorry if I've missed something and he is known and trusted.

Hey SuperDave,

$320 would be shipped to NZ, so unless you want them couriered around NZ...to say Stuart Island then that should be the final price. And yep that would include CE armour and knee sliders.

To be honest I'm not really sure what the silver/white combination would look like, you could have a play around with colours on a computer package like Adobe photoshop or something I suppose? Black or Grey and white would look quite nice, I believe the silver might be a shiny almost metallic colour?

Sizing is always difficult...if you know what size (or can go to a shop and try several sizes) then you can order in UK or EUR sizing (ie like Teknic size their gear 40/50). Just make sure you make it clear which sizing it is, don't want to order a UK40 when it should have been a EUR40

Same quality, but the 2-piece suits are just more time consuming to make etc and so are more expensive...plus there is no import duty on the 1-piece.

Hope this helps.

Hey gav,

Yeah its EUR$2 extra for knee sliders on a suit, but they want EUR$5 (NZD$10) if your buying them seperately...go figure It seems even half-way across the world manufacturers/sellers are still the same, cheaper when buying sets, more if seperate.

Sorry to disappoint, althougth I suppose $10 each is still pretty good

Cheers,

Hey Chris,

yeah I was wondering if this would come up again, if you want you can read the previous thread (BRAND NEW Leathers) and see what was said there...or you could PM TonyB (who also asked last time, and we have been in communication since then sorting out details)...

But wait there's more...: I am planning/hoping to meet with the AKL KB's early next week (Tues I think suits best) and iron out any questions/fears/etc the usual. One of the KB's has offered his place for about 20ish people (just a couple of mins north of the bridge). I will confirm hopefully with him tomorrow and will post on the site.

I'm not trying to scam anyone (for peace of mind PM TonyB) and am just looking to get a set for me and bring the shipping costs down by getting a group together, that way we all save.

Hope to see you Tues night,

Cheers,

[TonyB]

I had the same concerns originally, but though I haven't met wildcat, I believe he is genuine. As my wife works for a clothing importer and she and her workmates have a vast amount of knowledge about this sort of thing, I have offering wilcat some advice. We have been communicating via email and I am convinced that his intentions are completely honest. I have seen the references he received (they are very positive) and wildcat has been keeping me informed of what he is doing, asking for advice etc. He has already put in a huge amount of work to get to this stage, and has a lot more to do yet, but he is not asking for any compensation. The Auckland members will have the chance to meet him for themselves on Tuesday.

You have to appreciate that wildcat is taking a risk here too, if the leathers are of a poor standard he is going to be stuck with them, that is one of the reasons why he is looking at having them quality checked by an independant company before they are shipped. The LC is another safety check. But at the end of the day the references he recieved are the best indication that it will all go well. My advice to wildcat is that he doesn't even open the shipment without well known members there with him, then he can't be accused of foul play if it all goes pear shaped despite his best efforts...

My advice to wildcat at the moment is that he needs to leave himself the oppertunity to set himself up as the NZ distributor for these leathers after this initial order. If the quality is good, then more people will want them. It would be ridiculous to expect him to keep putting in all this effort and not get some compensation. But at this stage all he wants to do is help out a few KBers by helping you get leathers at cost.

And thats another risk, we need to get this underway before someone else dicovers it and sets themselves up as the NZ distributor. It's already happened with the boots... so lets get on with it!

Cheers
Tony
