I hope you get your stuff but if it doesn't show up soon you should dispute your credit card charge before the time limit expires.

Tony is being kind. This is not a flu problem this is a mismanagement problem! Mismanagement will eventually impact cash flow. When it does, the reseller will be put on a cash and carry basis.

If you order something in inventory it will ship quickly. When you order something that is not in inventory the reseller can not get it without a cash payment to his supplier. Without cash there is no sale. After enough inventoried parts are sold there might be enough cash to get your parts.

Eventually the continued mismanagement causes the collapse of the business. That is usually followed by a fire sale and/or sale of the business. Either way you will not be getting your money back — it has already been spent for other 'things'.

Continued support of this type of reseller will result in you eventually getting screwed. Getting screwed means paying money, getting nothing and not getting a refund.

Businesses that are run like this are poster children for where not to buy from. Ignore the pretty website, pay attention to what the business is doing. Unless you like loosing money, find a new reseller.

Razerwire suggested Vintage Wheels. and pointed out that they advertise on CC. Support the vendors that support you. Vintage ships quickly and has a good range of offerings. Click on one of their adds on the site here and go to their Cobra Parts hot link on their hime page.
