of course, I hope he delivers. But will he deliver in the time promised?

I stand against and I want him to prove me wrong =)

Not trying to defend Rick or anything, just wondering about you mentioning his name... could that be defamation of character?

i'm serious about the 25th. no wheels=i want a refund. i'm tired of waiting and i haven't heard from him since 28 Jan concerning my wheels. i know you've all been waiting longer than me, but i don't want to end up like you guys. i am about to finish a 6 month deployment and had wayyyy more complications than 1. ordering wheels 2. making the wheels 3. shipping the wheels. So I don't understand what can be so hard... I was also going to buy a house which took 5 months to make. What do you think is more complicated?

Plus, I've sailed across Japan to San Diego and know first hand how long it takes to get to America. I even worked in customs 2002-2003 and know for a fact that it doesn't take THAT long for things to go through. Especially wheels? So I know every angle... it's obvious the problem is between Work and VIP STATUS. AND it has to be a money issue...

i apologize to all for my rant. deployment is almost over and my plan was to arrive at home with wheels on my car. that is the whole reason why I ordered them in the BEGINNING of the deployment.

I'm just heated.

I say just keep calling HRS, they are the ones that are imported the wheels aren't they? I don't think Rick has a boat or jet otherwise I'm pretty sure he whould have sailed or flown to get them.

sadly, the order came from VIP and not individually. I already know most of the backstory through PMs and do not want to share that information due to respect for both vendors. I'm sure Rick would get them himself too... it's just the question of will work give it to him.

i'm still waiting for the 25th. it is a promised date (well, the 15th was too... and mid-november.... but i'm going to let those slide) that we all have been waiting on.

I hope he comes through...

Hey when you guys are on the phone with Rick next time, can you ask him where my bronze flatcaps for my TE37's are? I ordered them from him in 2007

I have personally delt with Rick and ordered a set on Venaci Spirts about 2yrs ago, The order process went great, he was right on time with the order and shipping date. The wheels came exactly as described. I still do business with him and he is ok in my book. There are 3 sides to a story so hopefully Rick can help clarify some of this..

I spoke with Rick yesterday myself, why were the lines disconnected afterwards...
But he said everything was good to go according to him, getting ready for the shipment.
the time before he said the wheels were going to be in between feb. 25th- march 1st.
For many of us, this is the final ETA.

i would take my best guess and say boys that your wheels will be in Rick's hands next week, and he will ship the wheels out probably Thursday & Friday next week

hold on for roughly 4-7 more days i think you will be able to get track numbers
