LOL Small skates do not maketh skating a fun activity!! Instead it maketh your feet red and bruised and blistered and very very sore!

I also hate it when people say you've not been waiting long (however short or long the wait may have been) because basically they are being condescending and implying that your wait does not constitute anything deserved...

Moral of the story : Be honest. Tell people upfront what the wait will be.

As for the distributors - still no reply from them on that front!!

You have been waiting for quite a while now. Lets hope they turn up soon.

I did not feel a need to PM you for that information I gave you. Nor would the two ladies mind me giving you their names (I have known them for over 10 years) Just trying to help you avoid the 'snake pit' as the coffee shop is affectionately called LOL

What brand of skates did you order?

Firstly, I just felt it was way off topic for this conversation, which in general around these boards, I've found gets told to "take it to PM"... :shrug:

I am aware of the fond name for the coffee shop and in general I take everything I hear at that rink with a grain of salt. I ask for advice from people who have been skating for a long time but in general if it's something I deem to be important then I ask my daughters coach.

And the skates I ordered are Jacksons.

let us know when you finally get your skates.

this is exactly why I always get everything in writing when i order skates or dresses...with a signature.

Ever since a custom dress was made a week late and i had nothing for a competition, i always confirm my orders date when i will get the item on paper with a signature.
