Well, after weeks of waiting, I give up. I purchased a skin from Morgan for my M2 but have never received it. Is he the only game in town or can someone direct me to another site? He once apologized for taking so long in responding..said it would be out by next week (3 wks. ago) but now I just give up. :bang:
 
Morgan can be slow, but he will deliver the goods eventually. Aki Asahi is faster but Cameraleather's options are more exotic and varied. Now that you have paid Cameraleather I would just keep trying to contact Morgan. I had a long wait once from Morgan, but the product was worth it. I have ordered 4 or 5 coverings from Morgan; they all did arrive, some more timely than others.
 
My order took 2-3 months to arrive. A couple of weeks of that was the international shipping. The quality is worth the wait, in my opinion.

Mine was for a TLR - maybe they're not kept pre-cut in stock? I imagine my order joined the queue for cutting.

It took a couple of emails to chase it up, but no real bother. I'd happily order again.
 
My first from Morgan made it to the UK inside a week. My second has not arrived after a month. It's a shame that variable delivery spoils what is, otherwise, a great service
 
I know, my first skin (a few years back) arrived in no time. I cannot fully enjoy my M2 without it's proper skin! :D
 
Hi Stefan,

I´m looking for a covering for my M4-P, close to your Ralph Gibson MP:cool:. Can´t decide between Red Seal Grain and Indian Red - wish Griptac was available in red.

Regards,

I got it from Morgan in 10 days. And I live in Romania! Fastest shipping I ever got for a purchase from America.
 
Indian red skin is the one that come close to Ralph Gibson MP's vulcanite.
I used from cameraleather a deep jade green leatherette to cover my button rewind M2. Which I got for under 400Euro from Germany.
Now I have two funny looking cameras, a green and a dark red one. No one take me for real on the streets. :)
 
I received a kit for my Rolleiflex a while back. Quite complicated, lots of pieces but after I removed the old covering I had the thing recovered in less than an hour and it all fit perfectly.

It was a wait however and I was a little concerned but eventually it arrived and I'll do it again.
 
My experience of ordering from Cameraleather was as frustrating as others - I would be told that the skin was being sent, but when it didn't arrive and I queried it, it turned out not to have been sent at all. I tried patience, impatience and resignment - the skin did eventually turn up and what a lovely item it is too. Slate blue kidskin goes very well with a chrome M2, giving a smart look without being gimmicky.

I've oredered over 35 coverings from Morgan and delivery has been sporadic, but he is 100% honest and you WILL your order. Coverings is not his only source of sustenance.
 
I ordered a grey griptac covering for new-to-me Yashica FX-7. Only took a week to get the covering. $16 was a bargain for someone like me who doesn't want to cut their own. Actual covering job was easy. I recommend Morgan highly.
 
I cut my own, so the only thing I have ever ordered from him was sheet leatherette. There were no problems there, and I'd always get it within a week. Maybe that was because he didn't need to cut it.
 
Just like to add that I recently ordered a Griptac M4 kit from Cameraleather and received it in under a week. No issues.
