Don't you mean communication?

Anyway, I've had this problem with other companies before. I'm rather confused on them not having the seats there, but the headlights, it DOES happen, it's something we all live with.

I thought 5.0 resto would have a lot in stock, enough to go around anyway.

Don't sweat it big guy, it'll all come in time.

i havnt had any problems with 50resto, always been good to me.

lots of mail order companys dont always keep all the parts in house. when i orderd my prochamber from partshopper here on stangnet it came directly from MAC

one of my friends just started his own website selling parts for AUDI's and VW's and he dosent keep anything in stock, all comes straigt from manufacture

In my dealings with 50resto, my only complaint is the back ordered parts. It took me about two months to get my headlights(2 years ago) from them. I will still buy from them, as long as I don't need the part within a week or two.

Click to expand...

Same here, I ordered a set of 4.10s and the grommet to drop my tank last week, dude calls me up TODAY and says they are out of 4.10s, with no ETA on more sets, so I'm gonna have to wait for an undetermined period... Sorry man, cancel the 4.10s, I'll go somewhere else and they actually sounded a little mad at me.

But for actually calling me back to inform me of the back order. Ordered from GEFRACING so it won't hold me back too much...

They will backorder parts and fail to tell you about it unless you inquire about your order.

Myself I never place an order unless the stuffs in stock...I hate that chit...I'll pay a tad more to the guy who's got it to ship...
Nothing more frustrating then waiting for parts you think are on the way and then never show... :damnit:

Just my .02 but Ive always had great service with 5.0 Resto. (Ex.) I ordered new emblems and MAC white face guages. Well they called the morning after I placed my order (9:15 a.m) and told me that the emblems were backordered and they would call me when they received them. As for the gauges I got them in two days. Three days later they call and tell me that the emblems had been shipped.

But anyways dont get too twisted up it happens all the time. Im sure they will call you. Just be patient.

Ive ordered from them before and I dont think I had any issues. I hate it when you do order something from a company though and they dont keep it in stock and have to order it from the manf. I just ordered a Micron slip on pipe for my bike from a company out in CA and they had to order it directly from Micron and then ship it to the company I orderd it from and then they ship it to me. Being here in ME things comming from CA take forever. Long story short I orderd it on tues the 13th and it will be here on tues the 27th. Thats exactly 2 weeks

call them and find out whats going on seems a little odd they haven't taken the money out of your account. I would say make sure your order went through but you said you have already talked to them so I don't know

They dont take the money from your account until the part ships. If it hasn't shipped yet, they will cancel the order if you call them and tell them to. They are a very good company and easy to deal with, but they're backorders kill them!
