VIP Status Wheels Issue #2 or more
Damn! I used to work in sales and if I had customers waiting this long for special order anything, my former boss would have fired my azz (plus our company would be out of business). I used to sell specialized motion control machinery so I am no stranger to ordering things from overseas. (Germany, France, Switzerland, Italy and Japan). Whatever the holdup is, the original seller should be upfront with you and give you the option to hand back your money, then he is just going to have to 'eat' the wheels or send them back to Japan for a restocking fee. I hope you guys get this resolved soon.

Strange how the threads on *******.com forums about issues with Vipstatus were closed as more people chimed in asking about their wheels.
Google vipstatus come out come out where ever you are.

Given the amount of time (approaching 2 yrs) my friend has given him/them... they will eventually come through.
Hope everyone gets their wheels/updates soon.
this thread is really sad to read through. I can't imagine going for this long without wheels or money back. Good luck with your issues OP and hope everything works out in the end.

What really bothers me is that Rick Updated his sale thread for his parts on *******.com forums, but yet I cant get him to get me an actual ETA, He confirmed my wheels are done, but due to HRS he can verfiy when my wheels or the other member's wheels will be in, since HRS has customers who have not paid in full. WORK isnt going to ship anything out till they get paid first of course. However, that is not my issue, thats Between HRS and Rick, I just want my wheels or an extact date when I can expect them, with anymore more False ETA's.
Rick I know you read this thread and the 370z forum ones since I check you profile and it reads the last time you logged in. Is it that hard for you to get the ball rolling and Airfrieght my wheels and the other members as well?

I talked to Tim..He told me, he got bitched out by his boss <Harry Hayashi> for telling us any update...Now, Hes like even if he knew anything, he can't say...So its like...While i called, Harry was talking to Rick...So, i called Rick...Hes busy giving Harry an earful because everyone wants to know "wheres our wheels"!...Harry took the preliminary list from Tim...I don't know...I think im going to message Ken Henderson a well known supra member on sf.com, if he can help out...Since, he knows Harry and ordered multiple sets from HRS...
So i talk to Mike+ Albert today.
And i told them everything that HRS told me.
I even ask if they want VOLK or SSR that is in stock.HRS have all of our $$ already,So If it seem like we're trying to jack your $$,WHY would we buy a brand new set of wheels and and ship it to you? We are on the retail side,After you order we order,then the rest is up to HRS.
HRS +AKH are the only dealer in the U.S

As you can see! it's not like we're not trying to get the 2 set for you guys.
