: : : He seemed like a really cool down to earth guy. Very talkative! I found out that the Raiders jacket was his number one seller last year (no kidding!) and it broke all previous records for Wested by selling over 600 of them! Well I contributed to his 2000 jackets as I finally ordered my lambskin Raiders jacket! Yay! Anyone else in Ontario Canada order one before? How long to get it here? Did you send it slow mail or courier?

: : Greeting from sunny Ontario, Canada:
: : I ordered my Wested about 1 1/2 years ago and had a similar experience with Peter. The jacket arrived quickly and in good order, but be aware that there was a $130 customs charge on top of the cost of the jacket. I was pretty upset by this, but THEN I put the jacket on. Who needs money when you've got Indy's jacket, right? Enjoy the weather here! You're gonna need that jacket.
: : Cheers,

: US customs on the jacket is about $18 US, plus a fee from the USPS for a total of about $22 US. If I recall, $130 Canadian is running about $85 US? Again, wow.

: Cheers!

It cost me $40 to pick mine up from the post office here in Tennessee, so the rates are different according to your proximity to an international airport, according to the postal folks. Regards. Michaelson
