ASAP or even better, sooner! It's better for you to remove the cape assuming you know more than the average customer.
I usually remove the cape when the customer leaves me a deposit $ . Seriously , you remove as soon as they bring it to you and they shouldnt be bringing it to you if it isnt tagged . I usuall freexe all of my capes until I have time to get to them . This also gives my customers that didnt leave a deposit to bring the $ or else . Rick
Always cape it out yourself, because you need accurate measurements to order the form by.-Susan
Just want to say thanks for the feedback it helped out I knew it had to be tagged just having one of those moments. The only thing that worries me around here is if you get a deer later in the evening sometimes you need to wait til morning to get it register. I mean the hunter does have his tag on it but it needs to be registered. I just hope over night doesn't hurt the capes.
Thanks again
In the refrigerator overnight. If I get one in late or several at one time, thats where they go. I wouldnt keep them in for more that 3 or 4 days.
