Is 33 days too long to wait for something you sent money for from a regular on this board? What's a good waiting period before the name goes up here?

Is this person building them and then having them chromed? If that is the case then you should expect the headers shortly. Can you contact him?

If you have the tracking number, go to the shipper's website(FedEX (http://www.fedex.com/us/))(UPS (http://www.ups.com/WebTracking/track?loc=en_US&WT.svl=SubNav)) and figure out exactly where the package is. It'll even tell you what day to expect it to arrive.

Thats ridiculous IMO. No more than 7 days to get cross country unless caught up in a snow blizzard or something. Which coincidently has been happening lately in the northern states...Thats just horrible service.

Finally got the package today. The plate is fine, but the two left feet leave a little something to be desired.
Thanks again Squeezing Spectra, it's been a real blast doing business with you.

Boy, that is some kind of rough handling by the shipper............j/k...IMO, you should get a FULL refund and keep the pieces that are usable!! I have some of those angle deals kicking around, I'll dig them out and see if they are the ones you need and if they are, I'LL GIVE THEM TO YOU, although after you get your money back, you can pay the shipping........Fair?.........MP
Now, squizin, do you have an explanation? I, for one, would like to hear it....

I don't care about the feet, although a simple-there's only 1 side of good feet- wouldn't of hurt. I didn't look hard at the pile of feet to see that half were broke in half.
Today is 36 days from when I paid. I'm sitting on an oil pan that I should have shipped yesterday but I'm waiting for another one coming in tomorrow so I can use the same box and I feel guilty so I'm gonna send an e-mail to the guy to explain why I'm 2 days late.
I bought a hat on ebay from England and I was wearing it in 3 or 4 days for Christs sake......

The time it took was silly. It should have taken a week at most.
I am going to play devils advocate and I don't know anyone involved. Well, I think I shook SS's hand at the desert one night but thats about it.
The description was for the plate only.
Granted the picture was of everything but even in the picture posted in the spam thread you can clearly see one of the broken peices.

Look at this pic and tell me the feet weren't strategically placed that way. There was plenty of room to place them all inside the cut out of the plate. On the other hand, did you buy the "plate" and the feet were an added bonus? Or were you counting on the feet to be included and intact? SS, not looking good, but still givingyou the benefit of the doubt, for now.

The only thing that shouldn't be for sale in that picture is the washing machine. I didn't ask about the Maytag, but I assumed.....
