His website says " WAITING TIMES   For Anglo Concertinas: 1 year    For English Concertinas: 2.5 years".  You might want to contact him to confirm: http://suttnerconcertinas.com/contact/ .

I am amazed at that short waiting times. According to the archive.org, 10 years ago the waiting time was 4 years.

I guess that several new builders have come into the market/got established in the last 10 years.

Yes, I waited for 4 years, when I ordered my 38 buttons Suttner 22 years ago, the year 2000. I received it the 2004. The true thing is that the time passes sooner than expected, although a watcher pot never boils. 

(in spanish,  el que espera, desespera, the one who waits despair). 

When passed two years, 24 months, I was happy thinking that I would have the concertina soon. Before reading again well the web page and assumed that was 48 months, 4 years. 

(confusing the 24 hours a day and the 12 months a year).

Despite what it says on the website a wait of three to four years is not uncommon, and I have heard this from more than one source.
