I was invited to do some camping in three weeks. I need a full length 0* UQ. I'm not really picky about vendors. I'd prefer down but will consider synthetic. I have a 50* down Wilderness logics UQ and an EE 20* syn top quilt.
I saw that UGQ has at least a four week wait and HG seams to be very busy as well.
Without having to contact each and every vendor I was just hoping that someone might know first hand if any o the vendors are shipping within two weeks. Thanks for any info.

In my experience it has been Jacks R Better
I have ordered three down UQs so far from three different vendors. They were the only ones with it in stock when I ordered and it shipped really quick, not to mention the quality and customer service were really good too. I've also heard hammockgear has helped folks who were in a time crunch.

+1 on JacksRBetter. I have ordered 2 quilts from him and both arrived within 3 business days.
I'm sure just about any vendor can meet your deadline if you give them a call. I know HG has gotten stuff out same day or next day. if you really need it bad they can work it our for you.

Thanks for all the quick replies and advice. I spoke with Adam from HG and he was very helpful. It looks like there is a 0* Long incubator in my near future. I just can't wait to see it!
Thanks again

The cottage vendors are busy, and while some have had communication issues (incl HG), if you get in touch with them, they almost always will go way overboard to accommodate - and typically at no extra charge, though for what they do it would be worth a small fee.
But I do want to reiterate about JRB - they actually stock stuff and you can see that on their site when you order. They make great stuff, always have.

I sent them an e-mail some nights back, saying I wanted a S. Sniv with Activ- dry, and maybe an oz of overfill, claiming one of two they had on sale.
Next day I got a call from Jacks, discussing some questions and options I had. The quilt was not even made yet, just a shell that would be filled with whatever and how much I chose. By that afternoon I got an e-mail that it had shipped. Probably hard to beat that.
