There are several India based sellers - I think it is actually the same seller with multiple eBay usernames and stores - that are using my pictures to sell their items without permission.  They are using low quality, pre-dyed, thinner  leather and are not doing any line or edge work on their items.  It is also very obvious that they have not field tested their imitations to see if they work correctly or are actually functional.  I have reported these sellers
MULTIPLE
times to eBay and all they do is close the listings, pat themselves on they back and then ignore the fact that they re-open them a day or two later.
eBay seller protection is a JOKE!
It takes me an hour to file the paper work and the items are listed again in about 2 seconds....  With my listings what you see is what you get quality, color and functionality wise.  I hand cut, punch, edge, dye and seal all of my items personally.
Time Frame/Estimated Delivery Date:
eBay requires all sellers to supply an estimated "Ship after the sale" time frame and, with my custom build listings, I have them set at 30 days. Very, very rarely do I actually need the full 30 days, that time frame simply covers me during heavy traffic times and certain times of the year when orders tend to pile up. I generally require closer to two weeks with some builds being faster, some a bit longer. Please feel free to email me with any time frame questions. Thanks!
Please note: This item will be custom made for you after purchase and payment. Due to variations available, it is impossible for me to have on stock and list every possibility. Prices may vary for custom requests, please contact me with any and all questions.
The number available listed above does not represent the actual number on hand. As stated, this is a custom build auction. The number above helps keep the auction listed ;)
Thank you!
Important: From time to time I can get extremely busy and backed up. Please view the home page of my eBay store for updates and notifications. You can do this by clicking the store selection under the View Seller's Other Items area above. I keep all applicable information there and feel free to email me any time with time frame questions.
This set of cuisse is initially priced in black but can be made in other colors, the initial listing price is for black.  Just get with me and we can discuss options and prices.
This auction is for a Medieval/Fantasy Style pair of Leather Dragon's Belly Cuisse - a French word meaning thigh and pronounced "Kwis". These cuisse are made from layers of heavy 9 ounce dyed leather. I have hand cut, dyed, and sealed these greaves for weather resistance, as well as done some basic line work to give accent details.
These Cuisse can be made from 10-11 ounce leather as well upon request for a .00 upgrade.  Color work adds .00 as shown in the pics above.
The straps have been left long so they can be custom cut to length or, as I prefer to do, be folded back under and tucked under the keeper - as shown in the pics below.
This is a design I came up with, patterned and made myself. It is not some machine punched piece, produced in bulk and put together by a gaggle of half starved orphan kids.
Please ask any and all questions before the auction closes. Payment is due within 7 days of auction close. Please, if there are ANY problems before, during or after the auction, don't go all negative on me! It will be worked out if handled properly ;) Be sure to check and see if I have any other auctions running, I do combine shipping!
Thanks for looking and HAPPY BIDDING!
Due to eBay's infinite wisdom and inability to leave well enough alone, shipping insurance has now been removed as an option on items so, in order to cover myself on shipments, I am now required to revise all items and include it into the handling fees. This was explained to me by an eBay associate who did no speak clear English as the fact that the seller should cover insurance fees and not the buyer but, since the buyer will not be covered if the item is lost or damaged during shipment without insurance it can be added into the handling fees instead so that insurance fees can be included and added to items?????????? Has the entire world lost it's mind? Anyway, the handling fees now include shipping insurance fees thus, thanks to eBay, requiring insurance on all items rather than giving you, the buyer, the option.... Thank you eBay....
