Did you know that when an upholstery dude says that a fabric is "special order," that does NOT mean that he doesn't have the fabric, but he can have it in a week or two from the people who DO have it?
Did you know that it means that the factory has to f'ing WEAVE your fabric for you?
And that the upholstery dude COULD SAY, "Give me a deposit and I'll order the fabric and in two or three months, when the fabric gets here, I'll come get your chairs...but meanwhile, you can have use of them!" But he won't.
He will take your chairs in December and strip them down so that you can't use them until some time in, say, MARCH!!!
This concludes today's PSA.
Edited to add...the first round of excuses will involve blaming the weather. But the actual fabric delivery will occur during a storm called...for good reason...Titan.
(Except... where's Jackie? I have to go see if she's posted today.)
