Recent Foxhound Questions

December 3, 2007

People have had a few questions since our pre-order announcement, so here they are with some answers!

What sizes will they be offered in?
We'll offer them in a full range of sizes, just like our other set size products.

Will they be fully lined?
Yes.

What material will it be made from?
We're still determining this. We know that it will be a durable fabric, but that's it at this stage. The first concern is if there's enough interest to justify producing it in the first place.

How much will they cost?
Between $399 and $449 CAD

Can I have a better view of what the coat will look like?
Sure. We don't have any prototypes made, but we can show you these two design sketches that were created by our designer. They show what the coat will look like if we make it. The pattern for the coat would be based on this design.

Do you ship to my country?
Unless your country doesn't accept mail or courier delivery, yes we do. We will ship to anywhere in the world.

Can I order now?
No, we're trying to determine the interest levels first. What you CAN do is email us to let us know that you would be willing to buy it at this price. In order to keep the costs down. we'll need to produce them in bulk to bring the "per item" costs down. We estimate that we need at least 100 serious buyers in order to release this.

100 people, that's a lot. What happens if you don't get that many people reply?
Well, in that case, we won't make it. We simply can't afford to pre-order a bulk shipment for a new product and not sell them. As much as we enjoy making cool stuff for fans around the world, we're also a business and we have to stay profitable so that we can continue operating.

So, how close to 100 people are you?
Sadly, not very close at all. As of today (Dec 3rd) we have had fewer than 20 people reply that they would buy a Foxhound coat at a price between $399 and $449 CAD. If more people decide to purchase, then we'll gladly produce this design. It's not looking terrific though at this stage... If you want to buy this coat and haven't told us yet, then send us an email TODAY!

AbbyShot is getting ready to produce a special pre-order only Foxhound trench coat as worn by the character Liquid Snake.

This would be a small production run, so to minimize costs for you we are looking at offering pre-orders so that we can get a bulk number of them produced. If enough people pre-order, we will offer the Foxhound Trench at a retail price of between $399 to $449.

How soon can this awesome coat be in your hands? We want to offer the pre-order and ship the coats within a two month time frame. So... The magic question is: If AbbyShot offered pre-orders at a price between $399 to $449 would you buy it?

This is a call for serious replies only. If you're ready to buy, then we want to hear from you! We've already posted in our newsletter and on fan forums to see how many people are interested in this design. We're past that stage now. We're looking for those who are ready to purchase. We're ready to move on this quickly if you are, so we'll be compiling all the responses to this email. Based on your feedback, we'll decide on a pre-order release date. We're looking forward to offering this product for you in the very near future.
