I have repeatedly offered in the past that we go there in person (and with heavy armor vehicles) to sort things out. Whether basses or territories with German speaking minorities, the Czechs never hand anything over voluntarily. But apparently they do good work.

Good thing BaCH isn't located in Poland! :mrgreen:
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
All my pictures of you

BaCH is located in Hodonin. I think that may have been in the Sudetenland.  :o

Yikes, what a coincidence!  Either way, I can't believe they've got a pile of completed Birds and can't get off their butts and sell them to us!!!!  And people think American workers aren't productive!  Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!  If this were Gibson or Fender, the invoice would have gone out before the paint was dry.

You guys have to realize production takes time. I have waited a year for my Lakland Decade which is in, but delayed again due to missing control covers, delays from Korea etc..

Nothing ever goes as planned

I don't think production time is the issue at all.

I'm with Dave.  The impression we have been given is they are finished and we're waiting for invoices so we can begin purchasing them.  Business must be good over there!

You can contact them through their website to ask about how much to buy it direct, and shipping, etc.  They are looking for shipping quotes now apparently.

Here's what I got in my email today:

Hi Rob ,
 
I am sorry for my silence but I am off my office very often these days.
I have asked our Invoice clerk to send You a proforma Invoice.
They will send it tomorrow.
 
Once again take my sorry.

I tapped into the feed from the spycam strategically positioned at the Invoice Clerk's desk inside BaCH headquarters.  I believe I have found the problem:

If he would only lean forward a wee bit, his forehead would likely slam down on the enter key and our invoices would get sent!
