Haven't seen mine either. Problem is that the Euro vs. Dollar battle has only gotten worse for us in the interim.

I ordered one from Gert last summer and it took 3 months to arrive. It was shipped from Italy to Gert and then to me. One thing I was not aware of at the time was that I had to pay $54 custom fee via fedex once it arrived. It was worth the wait. It fits like a glove.

Got mine in last week. Agreed, the $54 customs fee was unexpected but no big deal. High quality indoor cover, softer than a diaper. No hair line scratches and looks great.

Gert said that 3 covers from our Group Buy have shipped and am awaiting a (status) response for the remainder. Those covers look great on your cars. With regards to the Euro, it was an option to pay at time of order rather then shipment.

I've ordered a few times from Europe and had the items shipped to California - U.S. customs is always a lottery...sometimes they hit you for the duty and other times they don't

Update from Gert: There are 5 covers ready and he has asked the supplier to ship these out to him. The others are still in production. He's doing his best to keep on top of them but the lead time for these is quite long.

I so appreciate the quality of these covers, and I know Gert has provided great service to this group
But.....the time to shipment on these covers is getting ridiculous
Factor in the Euro conversion and the duties....I think this will be my last purchase from overseas for a very long time

Update from Gert: The 5 covers have shipped out. I believe these are all the black covers.

The remainder are still in work at the supplier.
