If you were referring to my post, I wasn't saying anything negative about Matt. I was wondering how long it will take USPS to get it to me from Matt. If you were referring to someone elses post, then i was just

I got mine today too. The installation instructions scared me.... till I realized that the instructions are for a stage 2... so half of that I dont need to pay attention to with the stage 1.

^ Yeah, exactly what I thought. I'll be putting my 16's back on Saturday for auto-x on Sunday, so I'll install my LTB then. But the grounding kit I'll probably put on tonight... after the thunderstorm passes.

Some of you still either need to pay or let me know that you've paid... First post has been update, as this GD officially ends on Saturday, August 11.

Eh... I went to have mine installed today... I had a problem. The nut and washer are one piece on my car. You don't need the washer. So I paid 5 bucks a piece for 2 new nuts that will be in in a few days. You guys need to check and make sure your nuts and washers are seperate instead of one piece like mine. I guess another day huh..

TrojanMan2116 and I both ordered and paid for stage 2. Also Shinjiduo who hasn't posted anything in this thread since he paid on 7/21.

Edit: I'm not trying to bash Matt just the 90% lack of communction stinks

^ USPS Tracking is pretty worthless... I can mail something with delivery confirmation and 1/2 the time it gets there before the status ever changes from "electronic shipping received."

^ Yup. Got a PM this morning:

"I got some cardboard the other day to ship the stage IIs, then got called offshore for work before I got a chance to pack up anything.

I'm out in the gulf right now and should be back this weekend sometime. I'll try to get them all shipped out early next week when I get home."

Don't worry, your Stage 2's will arrive soon!

It would be best to send him a email to sales@mattblehm.com. I think he does need a tester.

Stay calm guys. I was out of town for the first two weeks of the GD. As soon as I got back home, my family came to visit for a few days and I wound up sitting in a hospital for 4 more days because my niece fell ill while she was here and required surgery. As soon as they left town, I was called offshore for work for a week. Since I've been home (saturday afternoon) I have been trying to catch up with my responsibilities at home and at the office since I got back to town.

Sunday was mowing my 2.5 acres because it was the first time in a month that it was dry enough to get a mower across most of the land.
Monday I was at work until 8pm.
Tuesday I was running the Z Club of Houston's membership meeting.
Today, it's 5:30 and I still have an hour at work to finish a project before I can go home.

As you can see, I'm extremely busy with my personal life. BlehmCo comes AFTER my family and my day job that puts food on the table. Unfortunately for you guys, it's been very busy for me and I haven't had the time to do devote to BlehmCo as I'd like and you expect.

For those of you that have been commenting about lack of communication, I have been communicating with SilverGLE as to the status of the GD as often as I have been able to and as often as he has asked me on status reports. I was trying to deal with him directly, as he set up the GD. I do that because I don't have time to answer 50 PMs with the same questions over and over from everyone. Otherwise I would have personally handled the GD as I always have in the past. I prefer to do business one-on-one with my customers, but I simply don't have the time to do it.

Those of you that have paid for parts WILL receive your parts. As has been said, I'm not trying to screw anyone or **** anyone off. I'm not going anywhere, other than to my day job and back. Just be patient and you will receive them.

As soon as this group deal is over, I will be officially shutting down BlehmCo and everything- parts and business- as a whole will be for sale as a 1-lot purchase. I simply don't have time to deal with it, and this GD proves it. I was trying to sell off the rest of my stock before I shut it down, but that obviously isn't going to happen within the time limits you guys seem to expect.
So I'm just going to sell it in one big chunk and wash my hands of it.

Anyone interested in purchasing the business can email me directly.

That's good that your getting (or got?) your priority's straight. I also think it's a good idea to step away when you know you can't commit the time needed to sell things in a proper manner. Thats all I have to say that's somewhat positive.

just got done packing up everything that I have left on the list. everyone *should* have received an email from UPS or USPS- depending on the size of the part- with your shipping information.

If you didn't receive it, please PM me and I'll see what's up.
