GOOD ART HLYWD - A Gallery

@pechelman damn.... was not expecting that at all.
now you have just unlocked a new fear for my AA size clip 8 (i use brass BLB for keys anyway but I am wearing the clip 8 as a pendant )
makes no sense that hex piece isn't soldered onto the clip body???!! is that just a way of skipping a step on manufactoring/cheapening out? Or maybe is your piece just an unlucky "faulty" piece?
-
@Kasi IMHO I don't think that is an acceptable "common problem" becasue a lot of the good art stuff uses this hex like design on the swivel part. Not just the clip 8 but the wallet chain, big eye clip etc. So if this is a design flaw, that means the same problem could happen to other pieces as well. So I do hope that it is just an one off issue with @pechelman, and that Goodart have since updated/fixed this problem from when you had the same issue back then.

Good Art has treated me right in the past when I’ve had issues. They are great at customer service when you ask…As @pechelman stated, he contacted them and I’m sure that some resolution can be reached.
Things break, it’s normal. Rant over…

I think the issue in this case is a materials one. The fracture surface looks pretty brittle and this is likely from a casting process which can have porosity that will be great places for a crack to start.
My opinion is that this might be a reasonable place to use a piece of stainless steel or something a little more durable.
Regardless, I'm not worried of this getting fixed. I am a little disappointed but I know they'll make it right. Mostly this was a PSA for anyone with clips like this.

@kaacy1721 I was thinking of adding one to use as a pendant as well …
-
Would anyone happen to have the AA curb chain and a V2 Clip they’d care to share?
Edit with the medium swing arm …
-
@Brandrea its really good as a pendant... But now I fear it might also break to my one... hopefully it was just a one off incident
-
@Brandrea selfedge shows all the product even when they are OOS btw, looks like these clip7s are actually sold out

@kaacy1721
If you so worry about things breaking. Don’t buy
