Delays on the DARE Lion Daki (updated)
3 years ago
Update! I just got word that two of the 9 boxes he has coming arrived and many are my daki so they will start shipping tomorrow.
Hey all,
Just a quick update as I'm sure lots of you are wondering why you don't have that daki yet you pre-ordered. I've been in talks with InkedFur, and they said the lot of dakis just cleared customs in the US and they should have it in a few days. They also showed me the tracking number so it has indeed cleared customs. At that point, it will start shipping out so if you preordered it by December 15th or so, expect it on your doorstep in the next two weeks or less (if you're in the US). They will send tracking numbers to your email once they ship it.
I spoke with them about the absurd delay and they showed me documentation showing these were ordered months ago just they were delayed at the Hong Kong shipping port because they were backed up due to COVID. How it works is goods that can expire go first and then larger orders ($100k+) go out and then finally the other orders. Once the Lunar new year passes, this issue should be gone as everything should be caught up by then. So if you still want one, feel free to order one and the wait should be two months or less.
I spoke with another dakimakura manufacturer at BLFC and they are having the same issues so please don't be too hard on InkedFur. It's affecting all US businesses that have to get products from across the pond. It just depends what they had in stock prior to COVID.
Stay safe and stay well and get vaxxed <3

Oh man, the logistical issues are a nightmare for every business. I work for a shoe manufacturer and it's absolutely nuts. Best wishes in stuff getting to you soon!

Thank you so much! He's dealing with a lot of anger right now, and I wish him the best too.
