I run a retail disc golf store in Atlanta. We have contacted Him about these bags and I can tell you this, It's not cost effective the way He wants to do wholesale pricing on these bags. I doubt you will see a Grip bag in a retail shop for a very long time.

.... until they're released and I go pick one up off the shelf in Austin

FTFY.

just got this email from j@ after I asked him for updates

Hi rick,
I'm waiting on some news. Supposed to hear something today. Hopefully conclusive enough to share with everyone. Last I heard, they were still trying to get everything ready. Still hopeful to have them shipped out by Christmas, but can't be sure just yet. It's so close I can taste it!

I'll be letting everyone know when I have solid intel to share.

Thanks booter,
J@

Whoever they are, I don't like 'em.

 

[rooster]

What do you know, the post on FB with all the pissed off replies has been deleted. Is anyone on here starting to get pissed like me?

 

[juju1]

Yeah. Starting to regret giving this clown money.

im disappointed with the wait but lets not turn this thread into the DGCR version

 

[rooster]

I agree wholeheartedly about this not turning into mere a bitchfest. I can promise you once I get my bag any Grip logo that is on there is either being unstitched or covered with a patch as I refuse to give this company any type of advertising. I can't honestly tell you I know anyone that is going to buy one once they are released(if they ever are) for fear of never getting it. I feel like J@ has already run Grip Eq. into the ground before it ever took off. Sad really, as the bag looks to be awesome.

J@ took a risk the same way that anyone who pre-ordered a bag took a risk. I'm not justifying the long wait and very poor communication, but I think people have to be realistic. Their expectations were not met, now they have to wait and hope this thing pans out. No amount of bad mouthing, de"labeling" or threats is going to change anything.

It's easy for me to say that because I didn't take the RISK on this bag

 

[mobster]

I really hope I have this bag before the ice bowls and whatnot in January....

 

[rooster]

Apparently they are in production now. So prolly 2-3 weeks is a safe estimate though I'm not holding my breath.

Supposedly they have been in production for a couple days, China should have em whipped out any day now......hopefully they ship quick

I'm a glass half full type of guy. I expect them to be here late July, early August 2011. He needs to hire a PR firm before these go into regular production. Lifetime warranty??? How long is a replacement bag gonna take. I kid, I kid...wipe the sand off....
