sad for me, I am #38 so I be in the waiting line... that is ok, kuz I am so NOT ready for this project!! what I really need is a windshield to cowl gasket!! How do you know what number you are on the list? I have yet to receive any confirmation as to when mine will ship. The best I got from Mia was that they will ship next week. |

How do you know what number you are on the list? You don't. People who paid on Monday get their sets from the manufacturer. Those who paid on Tuesday had their sets shipped from AA. Those that paid Wednesday and later get their sets from the manufacturer. The first 33 who paid will get their sets shipped quickly, the remaining eight will be waiting up to 10 weeks as sets are manufactured. Eric, your flairs are being shipped from the manufacturer. The sets are pressed, but final trimming is required before shipping. They seem to be getting about four sets prepared and shipped a day. Given their current rate of work, yours should ship tomorrow or Friday. |

Given their current rate of work, yours should ship tomorrow or Friday. No sour grapes here, but I am about 90% happy vs. 100% happy. I think that when AA started to take orders, it was first come first serve instead of allowing those who committed early (the first 30) to get the “in stock” stuff. I called in and ordered before the agreed upon 1/9 deadline, but ended up #36 on the list (based upon info from George). Effectively the “waitlist” even though I committed very early to the group buy. I assume that those who should have been on the waiting list got bumped up only because they happened to call earlier than others. So I did as directed, but now have to wait as long as 10 weeks as well as have the charge on my card. Still I am getting a good deal and I would prefer to wait vs. cancel. |

I just reread my post and I also just talked to George on the phone (believe he wanted me to be a happy customer). I think I came across overly critical and I didn't intend it to be that way. It was intended to just be constructive feedback vs. a complaint. So I am still a happy camper and Kudos to Greg and AA on this group buy. |
