Default Koni shock sale/status

Koni's are still on sale.

Fronts are in stock, but rears are not currently. In fact there a lot of pending backorders for rears. I have those orders, so no worries there. I am simply updating you all that I have the orders and we are waiting for product to arrive in the US from Koni-Holland.

ETA's have been less than accurate lately, and Koni is slammed (they report to me to be up double from this time last year) and are running all out in Holland building shocks. I can't give anyone a set in stone delivery date--at this point it is all up to when Koni gets shocks here (and since ETA's seem to be right about half the time), I hesitate to pass those dates along.......

Hang in there, I don't love it either--but I will get shocks out to you guys just as soon as humanly possible when they show up.

Quick update.... 8 sets of the 4/3 rears arrived. So if you name is D'Andrea, Teft, Garbis, Fallacaro, LoCasio, Ruggieri, Vanloon, and Poirier---your shocks are in transit. If your name is something else, we're still waiting.

Thanks for the update Sam. Hopefully, mine will arrive soon. Are the "sets" shipping before the individuals?

That's what happens when people find out how good they are. You are partially to blame for that.

Cleared all current 4/4 backorders. A few sets are in stock as I type this. 4/3's are still out of stock.

If you've been waiting to get a set of 4/4's for $850 shipped--now would be a good time. There aren't many, and it'll be a while until more show up.

I was looking at the website today for shocks and noticed that the set of DA shocks is about $700 more than buying fronts/rears separately. Why is that?

Because I so rarely sell DA's (sometimes, but usually SA's are enough) that I neglected to change the price to the sale price. A set of 4 DA's, on sale is $1200--and we have them in stock.

And as soon as Koni gets some in, you'll get them. I just send about 8 sets out about 2 weeks ago for those who had the oldest orders. This is why it's best not to wait, the longer you wait to order, the lower down the backorder list you end up.

End of this month, and there are already backorders--so don't wait... Any backordered sets will get the sale price if the order is processed before the end of the sale, but we might have to wait for shocks.
