===========
I also had problems with Lonestar.  I waited two or three years for the
pelts to come back.  Communication was poor.  The finished pelts are very
nice; except one has a small rodent hole in it.  This damage was done at
the tannery because there were finely chewed pieces of hide around the
hole, probably from the hide stored somewhere for a long period of time. 
If you do send them something, don't send your best pelts.

I just received two sheepskins from Sterns Tanning.  They did a very good
job and it took about 6 months.  Never had rodent damage from any of the
other tanneries.
