Sounds like you should just cancel your order and move on.Dalton916 - I think they have been cut plenty of slack already - actually I think waiting almost 4 months is being extremely patient. And like you said - you have no dog in this fight so you can't really relate to what we are feeling.....If I had to only wait 6 weeks for a saddle like you are then I would have had my saddle at least a month before my season began and all would be well and I would be happy with that....
My main problem with this situation, and really the root of all the problems that I see with tethrd, is simply that saddles are not being manufactured with any - or very little - emphasis on order date. I understand they need to 'tool up' and do batches of saddles based on sizes, but Its just hard for me to believe the manufacturer is determining which sizes they do first and tethrd has no input into that. If that is the case then tethrd did a really bad job of setting that process up. If tethrd does have input into that process - and I have to believe they do - then they are doing a really bad job of setting the order in which saddle sizes are being manufactured.
Either way it all goes back to tethrd is doing a bad job of getting the saddles to us based on when orders were placed - and we, the pre-order customers, and others who have ordered since the pre-order period and not received their saddles, who ordered in good faith and trusted tethrd to do their part, are being negatively impacted.
Tethrd originally said they would be shipping out the orders based on when they were placed but that just has not happened. Here is a quote from the News page of their website on 09-06-2018: "We’ll still be shipping based on order of purchase, however, that will be phased by size as well." Well evidently the 'phased by size' process is not being done properly because 'order of purchase' seems to have little or no impact on when saddles are being shipped.....
Some have said that tethrd was overwhelmed with orders - more than they expected. I say that has nothing to do with manufacturing and shipping based on order date. You still complete the orders based on when ordered as we were originally led to believe would happen.
Tethrd is not the victim in this, we the customers are.
Any impact to the tethrd company was brought on by decisions they have made and they are responsible for the outcome. We, the customers, did our part and placed orders in good faith, allowed our credit cards to be charged before saddles were manufactured to help tethrd get started, with expectations of a reasonable delivery period. Tethrd has failed us and that is a sad statement of fact.....
I still have not heard anything about my order as well. Anyone have any updates or Info on shipments ????woke up this morning no shipping update
I didn't receive any updates on shipping orders last week. Did anyone else receive any shipping updates?I still have not heard anything about my order as well. Anyone have any updates or Info on shipments ????

Having a great Monday!!
BumpThis site used to be and hopefully will still be about putting together saddle hunting solutions. A lot of DIY sharing. I’ve only been here for a couple years and I’ve seen it change a whole bunch with the “I’ve got a secret” thread. Suddenly there was a saddle hunting system! It out all the pieces together for us. It used to take years to put a system together as it evolved. Now many who never had to experience all that see a system and don’t know why they have to wait for it. Those old school guys on here built out of patience. A page some of the younger guys could take from their book.
Too much reading on here now. Not enough learning. I’m out. See some of you on some more interesting threads.

Amen. Its changed on here just in the few months I have been on here. I am on here just to learn about saddles and hunting in general. I live to hunt and knowledge is power. This place is starting to get more like facebook ( i dont have facebook i am just going off my idea of what facebook is) and less about just hunting. For those complaining about tethrd I get it. I got my saddle just waiting on other stuff. It would be nice just to get an update on where things stand. I dont think thats too much to ask. We have time to post videos of Eberhart in a vehicle that take longer than it would to send out a status of where things are. I think when they did that a lot of updates the complaining on here went down. This site was also used to promote tethrd so I think its only fair if people are allowed to speak their mind on them within reason. I think that @redsquirrel has done a good job of letting people vent without just deleting posts. In full disclosure I have good things to say about tethrds customer service as well. I got a saddle I thought was wrong. Started a thread on here and asked around and @Erniepower contacted me and gave me a cell number to send pictures too. Within seconds of sending pictures I got a response back. I asked him a question back and he called me and we talked for several minutes. To those waiting I hope you heed the advice of others and just wait it out. I think its worth it. For me it was worth it to see the look on my buddies face when I pulled it out and put it on and gave him a demo. That was one confused individual.Bump

The 10-3 update said they would be COMPLETELY caught up in a couple of weeks but they haven't processed 4 days worth of orders in the last week so how can that be caught up anytime soon.....I'm sure G2 and Ernie are good guys but they sure have led us down a rocky and painful road full of promises but short on delivery....
