I think you need to be a sponser of the .org in order to start a GD...try talking to Doug (SprintMax) and see if you can hold one

I tried looking at the thread you posted that we were supposed to order from, but it was not right.

First class shipping is fine for me. Thanks.

I tried that... but every time I click to pm him... the system says I don't have those priveleges. I tried to email him... but his profile says that he doesn't want to be contacted via email. If I'm not going to be put on the list thats fine... but I just need to know so that I can order them elsewhere.

Hi everyone, I am leaving the country tomorrow for 2 weeks. If you like to buy a set, PM me and I will resume the sale on Jan 8th.

jdmaxima, your PM is also disabled, I cannot PM you.

Sorry for the hijack again steven.

NicE! Remember to aim your foglights a little higher to get better looks....it should improve the road visibility by a tad as well...just don't aim them too high or else visibility will decrease

This is from my buddy Epacy:

He has yet to answer me about why he charged my card. I sent him another email today asking why, but still haven't heard back from him.

This is what he says in his standard reply to everyone:

"We have never been out of bulbs before but we are currently out of stock on the H1 Hyper Whites."

That is the only mention he had of being out of bulbs but never said anything about the JDM yellow bulbs. And this was after a week of them not showing up and I finally had to email him to get a status.
Take that for what it's worth.

I figured out how to do it but is this a plug and play thing or do I have to change something other than the bulbs. My fogs are factory and I only want to change the bulbs

I've had mine for about 14 months. Longer than some, but still not very reliable IMO.

Yes, I did order directly from them. I also got an email today that the bulbs had been shipped, but my CC has not been charged, or it has not shown up in my on line account status.

I sent the following email to Luminics:

I would like you to re-confirm that the JDM yellow bulbs have indeed shipped and are not on backorder. I have read on some auto forums that you have sent an email confirming shipment but in fact did not have the bulbs in stock. I will also remind you that it would be illegal to charge my credit card for the purchase if you have not shipped the bulbs.

If in fact the bulbs are backordered, please inform me immediately and do not make a charge to my credit card. Thank you.

Regards,
Tom


We'll see what happens.....

Steven, might you be able to shed any light on this 'backordered' stuff? IIRC, your original post said that you got yours through a friend of the owner of the company, correct?

I just got an email from Scott at Luminics. He confirmed that the large bulb order you are talking about is due to clear customs tomorrow evening so hopefully they will be able to start filling backorders very soon.

Got an email from Scott yesterday saying that he should receive the bulbs (and i am assuming after customs and actually in his shop) in 1-2 days. then who knows what's next with all this holiday mail traffic since shipping is USPS. hope i don't get another email from them saying that they are delayed cuz of all the holiday stuff...lol. that would bite.

also from steven88's replies, seems like the owner and the website are not the same. if they are the same, don't see why the last box the owner has can't fill the back orders first...maybe they're stocking stuffers...lol. but correct me if im wrong.

We'll see what happens.....

Is there an actual regulation stating that it's illegal to charge CC before shipping, could you provide a link?

That's what still irks me. My credit card was charged the day I ordered and got a misleading email saying that the bulbs were shipped. Also, the entire ordering process never indicated that CA residents would pay tax. Only noticed cuz I got charged more than the price advertised. I didn't get that upset about the tax part; so then I was hoping I should get the bulbs by Saturday...but nothing. Must be a one-man operation or something so everything is set to auto reply...

I don't have a link. In Wisconsin, I believe that a company cannot charge your CC if they don't have the item in stock. If the item in not in stock, they need your permission to charge your credit card for that item.
