Purchasing his most excellent fiberglass shell was something I never thought I'd get a chance to do since I live in Canada. After a quick exchange of PM's, turns out he was only reluctant to sell them outside the US because he felt bad about the high shipping costs involved to the buyer! Talk about caring for the customer! Once that was made a non-issue, Chris kept me informed of the entire process and answered the many questions I had regarding the shell. He was even nice enough to send me measurements I needed in order to facilitate the construction of aluminum parts I was ordering through Freeky Geeky.
Chris sent me a message with tracking info the moment he mailed off my shell and it arrived here in less than a week!
Once it arrived I was impressed by how well it was packed - a large cardboard box lined with Styrofoam, triple wrapped with bubble wrap and nestled in more Styrofoam peanuts. Nothing short of it getting crushed by a truck was going to damage this shell and mobo.
Unwrapping the shell was like Christmas in July. Seriously. I had the stupidest grin on my face the entire time. Turns out, all the wrapping was probably unnecessary (though I'm glad Chris did it) because that shell is SOLID. What a work of art. Beautifully crafted, professionally finished and the details - oh, the details. It's one thing to look at pictures of art online, but when you're able to look at it in person, up close and touch it... oh man.
A pause while I compose myself.
But seriously, what a fantastic experience. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone in the community. His work speaks for itself: his shells are the Rolls Royce of shells out there. Add to this Chris' reliability, excellent communication skills and quickness of his responses, it really is a no-brainer.
You won't regret it.
I know I didn't.
I just hope I can do his shell justice when I put together my GB1 Hero pack.
