bad luck ordering parts

Alright, I don't know if its just me, but i'm having a real streak of bad luck when ordering parts :notnice:

first it was stangsuspension not telling me mac was out of stock on the h-pipe i ordered, even after charging me for it, i found out by contacting them myself.

after that i ordered a different midpipe through ninosport.com on 5/21/08. right now it is listed as "pending fullfillment" i emailed them on the 22nd asking if the part was backordered and no one has gotten back to me yet.

then there are the rolled exhaust tips from mrt-direct that i ordered on the 16th. i have a tracking number for fedex, but it has not updated since the 16th. i emailed them the other night and hopefully they'll get ahold of me soon to let me know whats up.

anyone else had any issues like this lately?
 
well

the mrt-direct order was very stange.

got the tracking number on the 17th, showing that fedex showed they recieved the notice on the 16th, and they were scheduled to be delivered on the 21st.

i checked the tracking on the 18th, and the estimated delivery date and ship from data was gone, now it just shows "Package data transmitted to FedEx "
 
edit:

also, let me add this to the **** list.

ordered a chin spoiler from americanmuscle. they sent me some non-oem verision that is a glossly black that looks like crap. they said i could return it and they would pay shipping, but i just sold it locally for the same price.

i ordered a replacement oem chin spoiler from gefracing.com.... got it in and there is a long deep scratch in the front center of it....
of course they're sending me a replacement one, but OMG i've had so much hassle ordering and getting parts in lately.
 
Well guess its time to order something from LMR thats on backorder cause then it will take forever and they will charge you twice.

Its gotta be cosmic karma. You ever sell something and not ship it or swear at a retard or eat a baby? :shrug:
 
I'VE found that its best to order from Ebay, you can find almost any part you need on there and I've never had any problems from them. I have ordered once from LMR and had no problems, also ordered from RPM outlet and will never again because they suck. I ordered from american muscle and it went great, sounds like your having bad luck. Hope you get everything .
 
LMR is the chit if they have it in stock. If they dont, I have had a problem 2/3 of the time with them. I have spent thousands there and for the most part they are great :nice:
 
called MRT today.
i guess there was a mix up with the previous tracking number. they were about to accidently send me the brushed tips intead of chrome. the chrome tips are on backorder an hopefully should be in and shipped out to me today, so says the lady i talked to...

oh, and got the tracking number from ninosport about 11:30 last night. would have been mad except the fact that it said it should be delievered friday.
