Default Strano Spring delivery status--as of 7/8/10

Springs are at the trucking companies local depot. Looking like Monday 7/12 delivery date given the information I have now.

I have the pretty standard 100 sets arriving. At this time almost 1/2 of those are backordered. When the springs arrive, I will process orders and start shipping as fast as I can. You will get a ship notification from FedEx when I do send them out (please check your spam filters, they sometimes get caught by those).

I will be out of town and closed Friday 7/9, so if you are looking to ask any questions, it has to be today or Monday the 12th.

Thanks!

Same question here more or less.....and new info on a complete set of 4/4s I ordered the last day of the sale? I know I'm last in line, I just don't really have an idea on when to expect them (and more importantly for you, when my card gets ran!). Thanks!

Jus' wondering why you order in small shipments. Why can't you order in bulk?

I called and left you a message-- you haven't called me back. Your order for the Koni's was placed after the end of the sale as I recall. I haven't charged it because I couldn't process it at the sale price. I was pretty clear about the orders having to be in by the end of business on the 30th (because I had to have my orders processed and submitted to Koni by the end of the day too). Yours was submitted to me @ 12:15AM on 7/1. I have the order here, and called to see what you wanted to do. But I cannot do the sale price on them. The sale was on from Feb to the end of June and I waiting to the very, very, very last second on the pricing change.....

3400 pound shipments isn't bulk to you??????

400 individual springs isn't bulk?

All the boxes, and packing and room they take up isn't bulk?

Do you want to give me the money to order huge shipments up front?

Really easy to say "just order more", but it's not quite that simple.

FYI, springs have not arrived. I'm working as fast as I can to get the boxed, the majority should ship tomorrow and Wednesday. Thank you for your patience, you will get a FedEx ship notification when the driver picks them up.

Thanks Sam for the call about the springs and Bilstein shocks, really appreciate it. I hope the manufacturer doesn't take to long with the slp shocks
