I had the vest ordered on 06.02.2013 and was already at 14.2 per GLS sent (by tracking but from Great Britain). Thus, the shipment was quite fast and inch cost came up to me and not to (the seller actually comes from China). The vest was packaged very well, inside everything was tailor designed with plastic pads.
Finally, I unpacked the vest, the arm attached (with 2 pins is plugged into the vest - but keeps Bombenfest - With the acceptance of the arm then you're doing to this difficult). Subsequently, the Glidecam get it and the first shock: The Glidecam attachment pipe is too large. But now I'm an intermediate pipe from the hardware store with the Glidecam good mood suits (plus a little Gaffer).
In practice, the vest helps immensely. Although here a lot of practice is still required, so it protects the wrist enormous. I use to diverse DSLRs (5D and 7D). Combined with a monitor, a follow focus and a Whip can achieve really good results. What a little disturbs the 2.Gelenk. This could have been theoretically omit. On the arm there is a bolt with which the spring can be adjusted in the spring arm.
The vest itself can be adjusted very well - so it fits people with Size S or even size XL. I could wear the vest comfortable even on a thick jacket. Various Velcro straps help as well. In the previous shooting but a second person was put to infect and degrade again very helpful.
Overall, the vest and spring arm is very well made and was for me so far worth the money in any case!
