I received mine within a week. But I live in NY only about 2 hours away from him. On his website if your ordering a metal mouth it says allow 1 month for delivery but everything else should be there fairly quick.

I have averaged about a month per order. I always order around season time though. I think a lot of it depends on what you order.

It depends, I waited  6 weeks and several phone calls to get a crystal mistress after season.  There was a delay on getting striker material, so I was told. He cashed that check faster than he filled the order.  Good Luck to you!

If you ordered online it may be a while...I'd suggest to start trying to call now.

Hard to throw your money at someone when they never answer or call back

tell me about it.. Ive been leaving voicemails for a call maker (not halloran) that lives like 20min from me, I just want to stop by his shop, chat turkeys, run a few calls, and leave a little poorer but I don't ever get a return call.

Good luck. I will just say his customer service skills leave something to be desired.

You might try Mid West Turkey Call Supply if they have them in stock, faster than ordering direct. That's what should have done.  I will say this, the call is awesome once you get it!

I ordered a CM 05/11, and I'm still waiting.  Last email to him he said it would ship 2 weeks ago.  Still waiting.

The saga continues.  Received another email, he said it had been too wet and humid to glue.  In other words, he hadn't even started it.  Said it would ship this coming week.  I don't care how good his calls are, I'll never give him my business again.

You ordered the call 5 weeks ago. Give him some time, it is the off season. Wait till you get the call before you judge him. I ordered 2 pots from Paul Platz 4 months ago and he said it will be another 5 months before I see them and I am willing to wait to see if they are worth it.. I have a few of David's calls and they are great sounding calls.

We are always patient until the order has been made. I have waited months before putting in an order and as soon as I do it is as if it is eating at me to get it, haha.

I'm fine with waiting, that's not a problem.  If the expectation had been set that it would take x months, fine.  But I was told "putting the finishing touches on, and will be shipped next week".  Three weeks later, I was told "it's been too wet and humid to glue, will ship next week'.  All I'm asking for is honesty and a solid commitment.  That's not too much to ask, and if I don't get it, my money will be spent elsewhere.

I don't blame you there. I hate being told one thing if it's not the truth. Nd if something comes up a notification would be nice.

I was recently alerted to these posts by a very good customer of mine. I don't frequent forums as to be very honest I simply don't have the time. I wish I could as I know a lot of good guys that are on this one and several others. I don't approve of the one sided bashing that often takes place, not only on this thread but several others about a lot of good people. While this maybe your hobby this is my lively hood. I also own a very successful construction company so I understand being a business owner on many levels.

To clear up the original question, the average wait time on any of my calls is 2-3 weeks as it clearly states on the website. There will always be a few exceptions to the rule. I apologize to those of you that I was not able to personally speak with on the phone but I don't have a customer service department, when you call you get me. I do this to maintain a high quality product no matter when you place your order. Email is always the best way to communicate with me to ensure I don't miss-place your requests.

During the spring I try to maintain a large inventory of calls so that I can ship them out to people on short notice. I do everything possible to get calls out to folks on tight deadlines in time for hunts and spring trips. After all this is about killing turkeys and spending time in the great outdoors. This time of year calls are made to order, these are all truly made by me start to finish no exceptions.

For those of you who have had my back on these threads I truly appreciate it. I really do enjoy getting to speak with and meet many of you. For those of you who still have a question please email me at dhtc.orders@yahoo.com
