So I ordered hubs back before cows and fedEX broke them and threw them away.
I ordered wheel spacers for the Chevette. They arrived in portland... and has had no activity since said arrival sunday the 16th. Call them today.... they lost them.
)(*%$^_(@&#$
My boss said he bought an Orange painted transmission once... and the seller shipped it UPS...and UPS lost it.... a 75lb, ORANGE hunk of metal.
How do you lose this shizzle? Shaddy bastards just take your crap man. |

It happens more than you think... I know that Amber and Joe at SixSpeedsInc have had hellacious losses, though they ship insured, some of the customers who send their own stuff to them, don't ... insured or no, however, losing one out of every 20 shipments wasn't uncommon, and there have been times they've seen their work on eBay sold by somebody else. Think about it for a minute, a custom transmission shop, shipping out 5-7 transmissions a day, 3-5 days a week, for X amount of dollars... when they ship insured, sure they get reimbursed after months and months of being dicked around, but only for the cost of parts, not the labor or anything else that went into it, because there is no real proof of that, so they suffer in that regard (They've shipped with UPS, Fedex Freight and DHL)
Sometimes they don't lose it, it's stolen and unaccounted for, for instance, after it's on the truck, and arrives, it's removed, scanned and poof, there it goes..
Other times, it's sitting in the back of a warehouse with hundreds of other unsorted boxes because for some reason, the truck had a problem and had to go in for repairs, etc ...
then there are the numerous train and bus accidents
or sometimes a large bird decides to eat them...
you know... just random shizzle |
