My hope for full body nyala mount got shot down today

Wow, I got an email this morning from Cuan Meredith the manager of TCI in Zimbabwe. He is offering to replace my full body nyala cape at no charge to me. That offer kinda restored my faith in mankind.
 
Sorry to hear about the original skin but also glad to hear that things are going to be taken care of.. Cant' wait to see it!
 
Man I hope if I am successful next year on my leopard hunt my cat doesn't get ruined waiting for the cities permit!

That's great news irregardless of the original cape it's still your horns and I am sure you will look back over the years with pride.
 
thanks everybody, yeah I am relieved that it is being taken care of. I guess the hard part will be waiting for the cape, it will be a little while till I get it. Thank God I am a patient man, just ask my wife she'll tell you. LOL
 
A bummer for certain! Similar thing happened to me, nyala as well. All I wanted was a nice flat skin, and the SA tanner buggered it up, shipped it anyway with no warning. I let the taxi in SA know of my displeasure. They did offer to replace it but I declined that offer since it was flat skin only. Why would I want someone else's skin? I have my other nyala in SA now for flat skin again, and I let the broker over there know what happened before and to let the tanner know it better not happen again. Different tanner this time. Hopefully you will end up with a nice mount, good luck!
 
I just had a friend of mine join AH. (Safaripete) He has a full body mount Nyala in perfect condition for sale. It might be a lot less money to get it. & swap out horns than ship. & mount one. His email is petesbearsden@yahoo.com

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
