UPDATE: FedEx is giving me attitude via a vis my shipping account, god i hate dealing with shipping
If none of you have any objections, i'd like to request that you hold off on making payments until I physically have the sills in my hand, that way i can get final shipping quotes for everyone and send them out, without problems.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I apologize for the confusion, this is my first "group buy" and i promise the process will be smoother next time around. I'm just tryin 2 make sure everything is order because i don't wanna be monkeying around with your money.
CF DOOR SILLS STATUS as of Dec 22nd: Somewhere in or over europe, being shipped by courier from manufacturer.
Stay tuned, same bat time, same bat channel.

there was some delay it seems on their end...here is the email i recieved after following up with them...
--------
Dear Omar,
Sorry for the late reply to your emails and phone calls.
Chinese new year is approaching and everything both in factory and office are almost like a chaos. Anyways, regarding your order. We only have the cayenne pedals, 1 set of 996 pedals and some door sills in stock. If you want, I can send these to you first.
The delay was due to the late delivery of carbon raw materials and all products are made to order, that's why there's been a delay. I'm very very sorry about this and I'm hoping for your understanding with the situation.
Thanks
Charles

I sent them another regarding a possible delay for chinese new year and got this msg back.
-----------------Omar,
We can't get everything out in a week becos it's the Chinese New year holiday. Everyone including the post office will be closed from tomorrow.
They'll resume work on 1st feb.
I'll let you know at once when it's shipped out.
thanks,
Charles

Remind me never ever ever to order anything during the holiday season. The wait is causing me to loose whatever little hair i have left lol.

YAY! Some progress has been made!
After sending a very strongly worded letter threatening legal action and the severing of all business ties, i recieved a reply telling me that whatever has been made so far will be shipped today . I will post the tracking number when i get it.

WooHoo! this is the first really good news since the beginning of this group buy!
Some of the sills are on their way and the rest will follow.
the FedEx tracking number they have provided me is: 8480 0763 5610
Those of you who paid me, i issued refunds based on the fact that I was loosing confidence in the supplier (it seemed as if though they were jerking me around, and i didn't want to be left holding the bag). I'll contact you guys when they arrive.
Thanks to everyone, you've all been very patient.
EDIT: While i'm here, i thought i should give a big Thumbsup to MA CARBON and John in particular, we are now an MA Carbon dealer, and like most rennlist sponsors, John is a top notch guy and most of you who have bought his products can vouch for their quality. Local folks will be able to come see some of his stuff in person when we open up our storefront.
