Ok, here is the update...
Bought skirts Last week on Monday, instead of normal 210punds price with is writen on the WEB page, there are aditional fees of shipment to UK (20 punds), VAT (+17,5%) and some Seller fees for the packing and etc... In the End - i payed 277 punds + 30$ ( about 520$ in total) for the bank transfare... Seler recieved money on Friday, and Shipped Skirts out on Monday to my given Address... Thusday (next week) I got the Email from seller telling em what i HAVE to get the skirts (In UK address) today (wednesday, DEC 13)... The day vent on and my friend AINT got skirts even if he spend whole day at home... Same happend Wednesday... So i wrote Seller Email, and got Tracking number, and saw what it says what: 13 Dec 2005 13:06 Sittingbourne Unable to deliver, premises could not be located. From the Wednesday i was contacting seller and trying to find OUT WHY the hell it wasnt delivered... Either the address i given to shippers was writen wrong or somthing... Cuz i Confirmed address 2 times and i know what it is RIGHT for sure.. Seller at the end gave out and told me to Contact shipping company my self.... From Wednesday i was Calling my friend in UK asking him to find out what is wrong on the shipping company HOT LINE, tryed my self calling about 10 times a day (1 min of call costs about 1$ for me...) All we get is stupid Online oparator saying what all lines are busy... TODAY (friday, Dec 16) i had to HAVE the skirts at my UK address cuz today was the day when my friend Truck leaves to Lithuania, and skirts needed to be in this truck to avoid Shipping fees... BUT. as you see what happend... I found out address of the Depod in with Skirts are located now, and called them, but it seems either Working hours are over or again stupid hotlines aint work... Gave full address to my friend, tomorow he is gonna try to go to the office to collect the packadge (about 40 miles away from him)... BUt it will take another week or so to find out another way to deliver them to me, cuz i will need to wait for another truck... (cuz packadge is about 2 meter long, and weights about 15 Kg) To resume everything - im trying as best as i can to make this happen as fast as i can, i already spend MORE when i predicted, not even starting the production... And i can guaranty, what this WOUNT give me any profit at all in the first 7 pairs of skirts - not even 0 profit, but a total loss, the only profit will be what i will have mold made, and will be able to sell them later.. So how can i lower the price, when it is even so low right now? Shipping alone costs 130$ so you want to get these skirts for 100$?? Sorry people, but those who jumped in this GB first, will get these for the same price as i wrote NO MATTER what else will happend... And i will do my best to get them on the promised DATE.Later these skirts will definantly be availible for MORE then 320$ shipped. Thanks for understandng, Romas p.s. Once i will solve all the shipping noncense - i will update ASAP.

Now that the skirts have been procured from the vendor, I am accepting the $227 balance owed from each of you. I don't really care when you get the rest of the money to me as long as its before Romas is ready to ship them to me. Not to be a jerk or anything, but everyone has had plenty of time to gather funds for this group buy. It would be very unfair to others and Romas if you lag in getting the balance to me.
If you need me to send my paypal address (or, in the case of the 1900Watt, my real address) to you again, just pm me. P.S. The $100 from Eurotoyotacelica is being given to Romas. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |
