Mmmm - new shiney toys a-comin'! That was a killer deal. I have around $800 wortha OEM Trumpet stuff coming for $400. Thanks again Tom, for sharing the sale link back on 02/02.
I don't believe a month's wait is unusual among the majority of online motorcycle parts vendors.
(Not to mention it's Winter for many of us anyway.)

I hope it works out for everyone involved. I was more worried about being the one putting you guys in a bad position more so than the potential loss, thus the original caveats. Still no email for me yet and I was one of the first (at least on this site) to order. Looks like the wife will know the "jig is up" as I'm out of town again next week. Oh well, I'll deal with it next week (I hope).
Regards,
Tom

I know what you're saying. I smuggle new motorcycle items in through the cellar. The shipping evidence I leave at work.
My wife doesn't complain too awful much about my buying things, but it's tough to cry poverty with a mitt full of chrome and motorcycle gee gaws.

I got that e-mail too. Funny thing is that I had the CC company put a hold on that charge after canceling the order?

Jack,
Looks like they are filling the orders out west first I have not got any e-mails from anyone except Yahoo on this!!
I believe I was one of the first to jump in on the offer, I have the original receipt from them listing everything I purchased and my CC was charged last week, but no e-mails.

Jack & John Check your spam mail. The ups tracking numbers are comming from QuantumViewNotify@ups.com. My spam filter caught the first email. I just checked my tracking number, it left Hartford,CT this morning at 0424. Maybe I'll get my shinny new toys today! Fingers crossed. Does the first person to get their stuff get a prize or do they have to buy the first round?

Thanks for the tip I checked my spam filter I found the following:
3 ads for Viagra and cheap drugs.
1 e-mail from Betty who has been trying to get a hold of me her friend gave her my name and she is new in CT. and looking for a good time.
37 e-mails on hot stocks
5 e-mails on how to make my 'willie" bigger without surgery
102 e-mails from on-line degrees without attending college something about life expericences.
26 e-mails from people who want to give me money
2-emails for free paswords to porn sites all I have to do is give them my CC # for age verifcation.
But no e-mails on my goodies

Yeah John supposed to be a cold one tommorrow.All I order really was a set of driving lights and a T-shirt. And of cousre now I will have to surrender the t-shirt to my better half, in order to lessen my sentance. So I'll be waiting until the weekend to put the lights on supposed to get back up in the 40's by then.

Well, I have a CC dispute going with them as they haven't refunded my CC yet. They don't respond to e-mails. Well anyway, the CC company said if they don't respond to the dispute, they will automatically remove the funds from their account. What a company! May they go out of business ASAP!

And both on Sundays.
