He is a friend of me and Stogey, and u personal friend of Rick I take it so don't see the difference...

Leave thread to those with issues sure but at least ask them if they want it closed or left open and can erase non pertinent posts.

who else still has issues in this thread?

imho what i've read is VIPstatus is trying their best to remedy the issue, but logistics is always the issue with importing from Japan.. sure there might have been some communication misses.. but what's left in this thread besides beating dead horse?

i'll close it when the OP chimes in..
Yep I received mine last week . Rick the wheels look and sit great, but I never got the lugs from your vendor . I'll get you some pics when the weather clears up. Blackheart I hope you get your wheels soon. Happy Thanksgiving congrats on the new baby Rick

Gonna call rick again today, What is going on? Been told the container was still not here yet, then told they were at customs, then told gain they still had not arrived at the port yet, now possibly waiting on customs again??!?!
So either the wheels have not arrived, or they just sitting at customs still?

Were the wheels even actually ordered?

Coupled with the production time//and delays of the manufacturing of wheels, There you get your 11 months.
Although I did change my order, VIPstatus charged my account back on 6/30/09 according to my bank statement.
So for 6 months my wheels were not ordered?

I was going to post and question what's quoted but stayed out of it.
I hope you guys get your wheels soon... someone drop the ball here whether it's Rick/staff, customs or logistics.

Just spoke to tim at HRS, he confirmed my order of the the meisters s1 3 piece 18 9.5f and 10.5 +12 offset. However, according to his order, he still has them under Black color instead of Gold, furthermore....Apprently the wheels are barely being completed by Work back in japan (Work is very backed up) so they never shipped out, never were in route here to US, nor at customs.

If everything was just way behind in production, why not just state the truth?
Been told one thing one week then another completely different reason as far why the wheels are taking so long.

Rick, How long will it truly be before I get these wheels?

Rick confirmed the orders were all changed to my request of gold, instead of matte black. superawmikeeey's order was also confirmed being correct.

Work had told Rick we would be getting the wheels around the Thanksgiving holidays or right after.
However nothing arrived. Rick is now trying to get a an actual precise ETA.

So this is where this saga stands at for this moment......
