Well I cant complain too much since they offer it as a free service, but even though its free its causing me a headache still. The first time when there was a problem with my order they didn't even send me a email to let me know. I would have never found out until I called in and did some investigating. Then I still dont get the parts after over a month and a half so I have to call in again and find out whats wrong this time. Im guessing there was another problem and they never sent them (again) and there lack of communication just prolongs the whole process exponentially.   :facepalm:

Captain, I think you could have learned metallurgy, created the world's greatest steel, then forged your own parts before these got to you. :D

Well the parts FINALLY came....... Big surprise.... They sent me the clip I don't need.  :facepalm: now I have 3 clips that are all the same and all just as useless to me than the others.  :rant:

Going to call them back AGAIN for the 10th time and see WTF happened.  :facepalm:

Talked to Ivy again at there customer service. I explained the issue with the clip again and she apologized. She looked and they did not have any of the clips I need to carry tip up in the right pocket, but thankfully she looked and they do have the correct clip in a black finish. I gladly accepted and would rather have the black clip anyways. She is going to send the SS (wrong clip) and the Black clip which is hopefully the correct one. Given all the waiting and bull smurf I have had to deal with, with there customer service I have to say that the woman Ivy working the phone is very nice and seemed willing to do whatever it takes to make the customer happy. She made the experience a bit more enjoyable than it could have been. Now I just cross my fingers and hope the correct clip comes.  :whistle:

Sorry, but its both funny and sad at the same time. Hope you get the right clip this time.

It wouldn't be the internet without people complaining.

Well the 4 month back and forth is finally over. They actually sent me the right clip this time. Of course the screws sent with the clip didn't even reach far enough to engage the threads, but they sent me so many different clips and screws I found some that worked. I found it kind of strange that every clip they sent me came with different screws.  :think: some longer than others, some dipped in loctite some left un dipped. Well whatever its all over now. Its in my pocket as we speak! FINALLY!!!!

It was worth it since I will make it my Hunting/Fishing knife so I don't have to worry about destroying a Spyderco.   :D
