These are direct emails, copied and pasted from my mailbox from him replying to me asking where my C3's are:
"sorry man i was so bz last night i didn't come online to talk to you. but yeah i sent them but i guess they weighed more than i thought i only had enough for usps ground mail should take 1 to 2 weeks sorry it was $13.99 i didn't have any more money it all went to parts for the motor and the motor it's self. but it's sent it should get there within a week or how ever ground mail takes."
I wrote him again and asked him where my stuff was, he wrote back:
"they said up to 3 weeks it was the only shippping i had money for but it should get there on tuesday."
You guys who are buying the C series cams MUST make sure that JWT solved the issues with the springs that were made for these cams by an outside company.
Some cam springs have failed. It happened to me and another person who is in SoCal. I believe there are other instances.
The spring on the number 1 cylinder broke in two pieces causing a catastrophic engine failure. JWT was kind enough to pick up the tab and replace the engine and I am very gratefull for what they did. I do not know if JWT will do the same for others who might have the same misfortune.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make sure that JWT fixed the springs before you purchase these cams.

I just got the mail today and still nothing. But he just wrote me and said he sent theml. To be fair I will paste word for what what he said:
"look man i sent the package and it's on it's way to you. i don't like being accused of things like this if you will just have a little patients. giving your money back isn't a problem so if i have to in the future don't worrie. i'll go to the post office and see whats up but i doubt they can do anything but tell me to wait.just cause i'm unsure about the zip code doesn't mean it's a scam i just went to the post office weighed it and priced it got a recipt and put it in the send box.i'm sorry about all this, there no need to jump the gun because i understand 610 is alot of money and i will not wish on losing 610 myself so i know what your going thru. don't worrie about anything cause we will fix this."

FWIW,
I bought a muffler off of Ebay for my G20 and the guy mailed it USPS parcel post and it took almost 4 weeks to get to me. They guy and I were both pissed being the USPS told him a week to 10 days at the most. Same time frame, another freind ordered some brakes, took over 3 weeks....... the guy mailed them parcel post. I know it's a lot of money but be patient.

For what it is worth, I recently used USPS to mail a HKS catback exhaust system. (2 huge boxes) I sent them both insured and certified. It cost me about $80 to mail them and to be fair I can't remember how is went, (ie. Priority Mail, ect.) but the lady told me it would take about a week from Central Florida to New York. I recieved word back from the guy that the exhaust arrived about a week and a half later. So there is just a little USPS experience for you to take however you want.

Where are you located and where was the guy located that sent you the package?

I wouldn't have sent a nickle to this guy based on his spelling and punctuation, or lack of.
Originally posted by Turbo91SER We are located in Texas. One package came from Oregon and the other package came from the bay area of Cali.
Ok thanks. At least theres a little hope there yet. But the mail just came and still nothing today - 2 weeks and a day so far if he really sent them when he says he did.
I'm happy for you that he's not trying to avoid you and emailing you- If he mailed it, be patient and see.

True, it is none of my business what you do w/them and why.
I guess I'm the only one bothered that you put them up for sale w/ a description "Brand new, unwrapped etc..." (w/an intended buyer-another SR
20 owner) and you did not even lay hands on them and not even know the EXACT cond. of them.

Because thats what he told me about them. He said they were brand new and I believed him. I'm sorry you're so offended. This is sort of pointless to talk about!
Real life USPS Priority mail story:
Shipped a money order from KY to VA Priority, I'm thinking like 1-2 days tops, it took almost 2 weeks!!!!!!!!
Sheesh..

Yeah, you're right no need to talk about it, in "Slipper"'s other thread you tried selling them to him like you had them already. If those emails are correct it just shows a little of your dishonesty about having them to potential buyers.
Ahhh whats the point.
Lets just cry together that you don't have them yet: Waaaa 2 weeks!
