  1. That's the sad part. I used PayPal's "send money" feature because at the time I was draining my account and couldn't afford the extra fees of using PayPal's services. And JJ said something like "you can ask around, lots of people will vouch for me." Which is funny because the more research I did about him, the more pissed off people I found.

    Paypal has two options, "Friends and Family" or "Goods and Services". If you link a debit/credit card, Friends & Family incurs a fee by the sender but no fees if you are using a PayPal balance. With Goods & Services, the fees are paid by the receiver. So, you could have used Goods and Services option, had buyer protection, and paid no fees. Not telling you this to feel bad but to help you with future purchases.

    I still recommend reaching out to the mods/leaders on FISD, they may be able to help or at least add the user to a published "beware of these vendors" list.

    Any good seller uses tracking numbers especially for higher priced items.

    Good luck!

  2. Did you get a tracking number? The mods might

    JJ completely stopped all contact when I asked for a tracking number. I believe he lied about shipping it. I current have the BBB going after him.

    Did you pay PayPal goods & services? They offer protection for 180 days.

  3. Helmet looks sweet, Todd! Been finishing up my helmet but I feel like mind is a tad small since it was before I knew where to look so I might have to go for a Darth Hair down the road. 

    This one is small too but I have seen some pilots that look like bobble heads and I wanted to avoid that look :-)

    I already had a orange flight suit from Wampa Wear:

    And one is made by Far Away Creations, but you will have to email for info:

    info@farawaycreations.com 

    But if you are the sewing type and want to do your own, here is one that could be used as a base (it is the same one I used for my AT-AT driver):

    Wampawear - currently does not have the orange flight suit on their site. 

    Far Away Creations - I know their armor takes a soooooooper long time (over a year, providing almost no communication about timing or delays) but they may have different people involved for making sewn products  

    RedKap - I have this same RedKap coverall in black for my biker scout. I can't seem to find a "Long" version vs Regular in anything smaller than a 42. Which might be ok, I think the pilot coveralls might need to fit looser than my scout - will do more research. 

  5. It appears that we will need an additional suit that we can use for donor fabric to create flight suit pockets. It definitely makes sense we all get the same supplier so the material matches and we can share. I read that one extra suit should provide enough material for 3 pilot outfits, we can probably order an XL size to get the most material.

  6. Welcome to the ISG forums, Trung. Check out some of the other recent posts, many others just got theirs as well (me included!) and there's a build day planned for Feb 6 as an overview of the project, led by our wonderful Garrison Membership Liaison!
