He’s been on twice this afternoon and evening and hasn’t responded to my messages or to this thread. I’d really like to know if I’m ever going to get my cases or not here. Have any of you waiting for your case heard from him in the last few days?
I just hope Nitewalker isn’t feeling sick or anything and that he’s doing okay.
Also, I agree with this:
(Not saying anything against you though, Comrade Tao, I know you’ve been waiting a while.)
After two weeks, I just want him to at least respond. Also, to address that quote, NiteWalker has been on several times the last two weeks. He’s just avoiding communication.
PM’s answered and updates with pics sent.
Aside from the cases being finished up tomorrow I only have two others to take care of for SRK members.
No excuses, I just took on too much at once.
Every negative comment is rightful; if I was on the other end I’d feel the same way. 2+ months is feasible for a complete custom, but not for an empty case.
No one is getting scammed though; I’m just taking way too long because I had it in my head that doing multiple cases would still be efficient because there’s a lot of common factors when building my SimpleCases. In reality, it’s just not practical in my small shop (3/4’s of a one-car garage). Things go quicker and smoother doing one case at a time. Back when I was handling orders that way, I was getting them out at about one or two a week.
I’ll be happy once I get these few cases out of the way and can start handling orders singly instead. Less stress for everyone.
I’m sorry guys…

I know I bitched and moaned about my case taking long, but guys, now that I have it, I would have waited another 2 months easy cause the craftsmanship is just that superb. Your wait is not in vain :), John is a good guy from what I can tell, just getting hit with mad traffic now due to his new sexy widebody cases!
Nitewalker,
Just a suggestion, but i suggest you keep everything more transparent by posting a queue list or something…like so:
Current stick: chuu
Next stick: bad boy brazil
negotiating with: jeremy
that way people will know the lead time for their stick.
My stick is next? Nice lol But true I agree with Chuu on that.
i knew you’d like that lol…
Update regarding NiteWalker:
All items have been received, communication restored, and transaction is now considered SETTLED.
Nice dude. He’s about to finish up my as well. I will update once I have it in hands
That’s the plan once the current batch is caught up.
So Nitewalker, your cases come with the joystick mounting hardware? Does that mean I don’t need to buy the screws to attach the joystick to my case?
Yep, joystick mounting hardware, rubber feet, screws for mounting a neutrik USB connector and control panel screws are all included.
Thanks Nitewalker I can’t wait to see the pictures of my case.
You’ve saved me a lot of money by including all of this extra stuff. :tup:
Glad to hear you’re doing well NW.
I just realized I never posted the finished work in your thread:

Dude love the artwork on that where did you get it?
My case came in yesterday, so I’ll post pics as soon as I get them.
I just wanted to say, it really is an incredible case and completely worth the wait. :tup: The packaging job was very professional and the case itself seems like it came out of a factory. (In a positive way.)
You did an amazing job, Nitewalker.
Finally completed my case today!
I already posted in the ‘Check Out My Arcade Stick’ thread but I figured it would be right to post my build here too.
Poplar Case by Nite, finished and painted by yours truly.

Thanks again to Nite for a great quality case! Would not hesitate to buy another.
As I ordered my case the other day I thought I’d better start working on a stick layout :P, This is a very simple one based on a HORI design.
needs boobs…lol.
