I agree, communication is key in these situations so I understand your points. I guess lol i am crossing my fingers for you guys. This is a tough one to be in.

I wish everyone the best on the arrival of the wheels and/or refund... The problem i see was the promise date and updates. The shipping company used was highly unreliable as well -_-

So what's the word on the wheels? Hasn't been made? Hasn't been shipped? Currently on ocean freight? In customs? On truck to his residence? Or no one knows?

I only spoke to Rick about mine and it was explained in the post from him above as far as everyone else the only thing I can say is my wheels and 1 other guy had them ordered from 1 place because the wheels we ordered are made in this facility and no were else.

I read his post but it didn't say your status. Only thing concrete was the order date. Everything else was speculative. If you know where your wheels are then that's all that matters.

Yeah I know that they have been made for awhile now and Rick told me about all the BS he is going thru to get this stuff here.

I'm glad I don't have his job I would have choke someone by now.

i just got pm from rick, said my wheels will be here in 2 weeks, lets wish me luck guys.

I'm sure Ricks a fine dude... and yes, they are made in Japan, but custom made Volks come in no longer than 5 months or so?

Just saying... If plan A fails then go plan B.

I know its easier said than done.. but if someone has been around forever, shouldn't he know the ins and outs of this crazy mess of importing??

Not saying Rick is some kind of shady vendor here at all. Just saying there should be a better process, especially if he wants this business (wheels) to do well in the future. Yeah the delay may not be his fault, but it is putting his business reputation in line. Would potential customers see this and take their business else where? Sure.

I'd do whatever I can to fix that.

Fly over to Japan and whoop someone's *** if that will help speed up the process.

Like someone stated before, its all about the customer service.

Sorry for busting your balls Rick!
