Elite is a growing bow company. They are up to capacity + with orders. Most companies like this will expierence growing pains, but they are handling them well. The Nealy strings were HEATED to speed up the stretching process ,but it caused the fibers to break down. Elite made it right through Nealy, nuf said.
Elite's customer service is outstanding from what I can see , but I think a lot depends also on YOUR dealer to give assistance.
With that said, I'm hanging in with my order. $50.00 or not.
If your dealer is not familiar w/ the supertuning on these bows , I'll help you with that. You know Michael is tuning my bow before I get it.

Gary, I understand your cautiosness and if you change your mind...OH Well. You have a lot of bows out there to choose from.
I'll still let you shoot mine at the GTG.
