Default V-Zweeden Group order update...

Hey guy's,

You will be happy to know that our stuff is in Chicago as of Sunday night...I have confirmed that with the shipping company, and now I had to appoint a power of attorney for insurance and govt. reasons and fill out some paperwork. I am hoping that the stuff will clear customs today! If not I was told by my import broker that the stuff will clear no later than tomorrow, but it should clear today..thanksgiving holiday has created a bit of a back-log for customs. If the stuff clears today I will be picking it up today..I will post as soon as I recieve the stuff..

Thanks for the update Damian! I think i speak for everyone in on this order when i say thank you for all your work!

tod84944: I think there was some interest a few weeks back to start another group buy after the holidays. I was interested in the second until the guys at v-zweeden packed in the matching rear 924 Lemans spoiler to go with my front I'm sure/hope once people see these parts another group order will begin....

Thank's Guys

It has been a pleasure to help everyone out. For those of you that want to order again after the holidays or right now, it would not be a problem. Everyone that decides to be in just let me know when everyone is ready and I will help out with the procedure of shipping and importing.

Ian I sent you my phone number, you should call me this week after 7 pm any time. I have some good news for you if you want to order the spoiler now and not wait till after the holidays.

Also if someone would like to organize another group buy, then I will e-mail that person my phone number and I will tell you everything I know on this procedure. To much info to post...

Iwill send those that are interested or have aready asked me about info my phone numbe..

So I am still waiting...I just called the broker this morning, and she said she is doing everything possible to get customs of off their lazy asses and clear the shipment. Basically Customs opens at 9 am and close at 4 pm. So they get to work at about 9:15 and take coffee brake until 10:00 or so. Then they work for like an hour or two. then they take a two hour lunch. Followed by maybe two more hours of work and thats their day....What the hell kind of operation is this...???? All I am waiting for is a dam signature on the Import papers...Dam govt. jobs

I cannot stand the idea of our spoilers just sitting in some warehouse, and not be able to pick them up...Again as soon as I recieve clearence I will be on my way to pick up the package...I am doing everything I can over the phone to speed this up...
