Default Buyer beware. contact sellers if planning a day at the shop

Through Oct & Nov I looked at Berk HFC's online for my G37x daily. On Black Friday I ordered them from Z1 as they had a red note stating Orders Will Ship November 2021. Made an appointment at the shop for HFC & exhaust, 20 December.

3 days later (2 Dec) I'm told they'll ship in 1 to 2 weeks. So the red note was untrue at the time / not up to date. Meanwhile I got my Q300 exhaust from Toronto within a week. It fits on the backseat of the G.

2 weeks later (today), still nothing. Had to cancel my appointment.

Z1 site says Orders Will Ship Spring 2022, that's ****ing great Z1 thanks a bunch man. I have a huge leak at the y/mid pipe juncture on the G and the cold weather exacerbates the drone. Four year old girl onboard every other day. Like I said, ****ing great.

Merry Xmas.

Do you have any experience webmastering a commercial site?

If not I would suggest looking into DB management vs. those red notes you see "Orders Will Ship Nov 2021".

In this case it is the online vendor not keeping up with current state of stocktaking.

So what did I say exactly that warranted a "slow your ****"?

Pretty quick on the atak trigger and that's par for the course for you. Lol

You would think vendors have their ducks in a row for Black Friday sales. Oh well, dude.

Why would you book an appointment before you had the parts in hand, or at least a confirmation that they had shipped?
