Glad to hear you got the shipping situation taken care of!! If you're happy now, just wait till you get the radiator!

Matt: If you have an email contact from Griffin, can you ask them to email you a list of people who they have on the actual build list as paid?
Yes - I have emailed a contact at griffin, and I hope to have a list of all the names that have called in payment information first thing tomorrow. I will post that as soon as I get a response. I was hoping to call today and see how many are still missing, however I was busy with senior design and such all day.

Thanks,
Matt

I thought the final, final cut-off date was Wednesday, April 5th? Geez, how long is this going to drag on. Anyone that hasn't called by now isn't going to call.

Matt, you need to tell Griffin this is it and get on with it

I DID tell Griffin to place the Order by Yesterday morning.. Apparently they dont listen real well. I will give them a call in a couple minutes. I will get a list of everyone that has paid for their radiators, and tell Griffin to finalize the order and what not. I tried called Wednesday and Thursday between studying for midterms, but I didnt get ahold of them. I am done for the week besides a few meetings, so I should be able to talk with them.

Paul - I sent you a PM, Dedi has your info, so you are in on the group buy.

Dedi is going to send me a complete list of everyone that has called in their info. I will have a complete list by tonight. All of our orders should be charged no later than the end of Monday.

The Group buy is now *officially* CLOSED.

I dont have an "official" date as to when we should have our radiators, but I will keep everyone up to date when I hear anything new.

If anyone has any questions, feel free to email me or send me a PM. I should have a bit more time now, since my midterms are over.

Thanks everyone,
Matt

Matt, I spoke to Didi on Thursday afternoon, to confirm that my info had followed with the sheet. She said; "until everyone, on her list has paid, the order won't be booked". Has this been sorted out?

You have PM.

Yes - Unfortuanately this is the time frame they gave me also. I think once they get our order charged (should be Monday) our orders should move along relatively smoothly. They are really backed up now, since we are getting into race season, and everyone needs a radiator now.

We'll get them soon enough, cant wait to get mine installed!

Matt,
Just wanted to say thanks again for you efforts on this purchase. I did reach someone yesterday at Griffin and confirmed I'm on the list as paid.

Matt,
Thanks for all the work.
I was told that Griffin is very short of personnel and that caused all the delays in contacting them. Maybe we can do this again in the winter and get better results.

She said that she was looking after it now.
Hmmm, with a TWELVE THOUSAND DOLLAR order for radiators, I would have thought the people at Griffin would be a little more enthusiatic about taking our money!
