Supreme call wait time.

I have yet to order a call (duck, goose, or turkey) that the call maker did not want the money up front...

Apparently, I have been lucky, cause I have also never had to wait more than 6 weeks for a call (and I was told up front about the wait time).

I think it is reasonable for the call-maker to request the money up-front, but I also think it is reasonable for the call-maker to give an accurate time-frame as to when the call will be finished and sent out...  If he says a year, then it is up to the customer to decide whether or not he wants to order the call.

If I ordered a call, and was told it would take a month or two, and 6 months later I had not received the call, I would want to talk to the call-maker...  If I did not get a reply to phone or emails, I would probably be a bit perturbed...  I might post my experience on a forum such as this, or I might even make a complaint to the Better Business Bureau if I thought I had been swindled.

I would be curious (as I would guess other readers are) to hear what kind of time frame Mr. Reeves claims on his calls to be finished?  If a call takes 6 months or more, I would think a responsible business owner would let his clientele know this up front.

He must be doing something right if he has so many customers that there is such a wait time, and that so many are willing to wait...
Did I do that?

Fly fishermen are born honest, but they get over it.

Having spoken to another fella that ordered from him, I don't think it's taking him that long to produce a call. Sounds more like he knows people want his calls and he's charging through the roof and taking his sweet time completing them in the process.
