Customer feedback, some ebay, some private:


Saul,


I am amazed at the quality of the knob and the key fob. They truly are works of art to be treasured. I am a bit afraid to used the key fob as I might get it scratched a bit.


The contours of the knob truly make for a "fits like a glove" feeling. Actually better than the factory knob. Ones' hand just falls into place around the curves you instituted.

Hi Saul,

You are very welcome and I hope all is well with you I just nipped down to Home Depot and according to their display the thread is 5/16 #18.

The new wood trim/ski slope for the XJS that you made for me about 15 years ago still looks like new by the way.

Looking forward to getting the new gear knob. I’ve been working on the old car for about a month on and off fixing all sorts of bits and bobs so the new knob is my present to myself.

 

All The Best

I have to admit... I once ordered from the Canadian supplier, but the quality was not as high as yours (especially after I compared it in person with the one I purchased from you).  The craftsmanship of your work is of the highest order.  Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference in eBay photos, but when you compare the actual work, there's a tremendous difference. 

For example, the lacquer on the Canadian item seemed to have fine dust particles suspended in it.  This was particularly noticeable under lights or in sunshine.  Also, the "leaper" badge was not centered in its cavity and the cavity into which the badge was embedded was much larger than the badge itself, leaving a lot of unsightly space around it.  Your badge fits right on the money, with no extra spaces anywhere.  The lacquer is also perfectly clear.

There have been times when I've not had very good luck with eBay purchases, but I 've never been disappointed with any of my purchases from you.  Your work is of superior quality, and, just as important, you are a trustworthy seller."

Beautifully done. Well worth the price! Quick shipment. Great seller!

"My shift knob came in – it is fantastic!  Much better quality than I thought I may get.  Jaguar should hire you!!!"

"Just wanted to tell you that I think you hit a home run with this one. I love it. Only thing is, I wonder how long before your competition tries to copy you like they have done your other stuff? No matter, your quality is so far beyond theirs that they aren't even in the same league. As soon as you come out with one of these that will look good with my Anthracite/Tan XJR or my wife's White/Ivory Vanden Plas, I'll be buying them and selling the burl/mother of pearl ones I bought from you. They still look brand new. Congrats on a great looking knob. "

"My Dad received the shifter knob and was blown away. He was going to sell his “perfect” 1999 for $15K to one of my older brothers. This, he said, may change his mind. Thanks so much for the trouble I caused, your quality workmanship and being that rare person that actually does what he says he’s going to do and does it right!"

"I received the walnut shift knob today (ebay), and I wanted to let you know that it is truly incredible. And thank you for the extra pin, that was quite a surprise.
 
I will be sending you my XJ ashtray shortly.  It looks like it will fit in the same box you shipped the knob. Thank you again. I will definitely recommend your services to others."

"I received my Jaguar Gear Shift Knob on Thursday and want to thank you for exceeding my expectations. It has now replaced the ‘stock’ XK8 knob and it matches the surrounding veneer perfectly. It punctuates the elegant beauty of this car and I of course, had to take the car out for a long ride to make sure it had the feel as well. It did. When I drive this car, I’m surrounded in beauty and the experience is quite gratifying. I commend you on your craftsmanship and thank you again."

Thanks again,

W. "
