Precisely. I've run GD's before, so I know it's some work, but it would be great if we got some regular updates on the status of this order. Especially considering each of us has a pretty substantial chunk of change in this deal.

 

The order has been placed with D2 but I am still trying to back up our harddrive so that we can charge the balance to everyone who left a deposit by credit card. Will be done over the weekend

 

Thanks for the update, Mark.

 

Yes, thanks for the update.

So where do these things actually come from? I see D2 is basically all over the world, I was just curious where they are based out of and where their products are manufactured?

 

I think they are manufactured in Taiwan, and in this case, they would be shipped out of California?

 

D2's are M.I.T. - Made in Taiwan. Only the best come out of that country

lol wtf, if they are going to ship them out of cali then i live in cali and should get mine first as well as other people in cali who ordered these.

 

yup coming from the Governator state. Hopefully, we do get ours first.

 

Perfect. Thanks for the update Mark. So far so good

 

What about those of us that placed rush orders?

 

oh u did ?!?!?

 

Yes, am I the only one?

 

Is it possible to get in belatedly on this group deal? it would't matter to me if my set of coilovers were delayed because i am late, but i would very much like to get in at this price if that is possible. my max was wrecked and i didn't know that i'd be getting another until just this past week when i bought another 4th gen, and if i can get in on the gd i can pay in full immediately.

your best bet is to call up mark ASAP and ask him

(416) 835-8490

 

i still hate all of you.

 

Made in taiwan and shipping form Taiwan to los angeles where they will be reshipped to customers. Express orders take up to 10 days to receive once the additional $150 is paid

 

Mark, how about an update and ETA?


~limsandy

 

yea an update sounds good. i dont even remember which spring rate i ordered as i was in a rush.

 

ETA is by the end of February. I still haven't found a good back up program for our harddrive. The files were recovered after 3 days but they all were named "Recovered Text File" "Recovered JPG" etc and there were over 20,000 text files. I am going to give another program a go so I can get that complete list

 

Ouch!! That's longer than I thought it would take.

I hope you get those files back......

 

 

Well I guess it stop raining by then I can install these comfortably...

 

Wow that's a lot longer than 6-8 weeks.. Do you know what caused the delay?

 

thats right around my birthday.

happy birthday to me!

 

Yep me to....

Mark, thanks for calling me!

 

So 6-8 weeks is now 12 weeks. Needless to say, I'm pretty unhappy about that.

If you've already placed the orders, as you previously stated, why can't they be delivered sooner? Why couldn't your hard drive problems be solved within a week or two from today, well before they even complete manufacturing these new coilovers for us?

 

hmm....i got a question then...i still haven't seen the bill for the rest of the amount on my card yet...are u gonna bill us later after u recover the files?...or should it have been billed already?

 

I have already been charged the full amount

 

what is this "list" and whats on it? lol

 

LOL.....good luck guys.....we've been waiting on Mark a lot longer than you guys have.....

thats not very assuring...

 

This shiet is getting fishy, the guys on that forum have been waiting for 9 months+.

 

I'm definitely not waiting 3 months. As you guys know, most banks, credit cards, Paypal, etc... have a time limit for when you can file a claim.

Paypal has a time limit of only 30 days from the time you paid, to file your claim.

 

I just called my CC and they said I have a 6 month period to file a claim. One of the main reason, why I used CC to paid for the coilovers. I am not saying that I will be using that option in the near future, Mark has somewhat come thru with some info and I am not ready to label him as another roadbeast but it is fishy that with all the problems he is having with the 240sx people, he decided to take on another GD with us.

 

hmmmmm fishy indeed...
Mark, explanations on the delays on the 240SX forums please....

 

holy **** 9+ months? something's definitely not right here.. so what's everyone going to do? wait it out or what..

 

Great info Andy. I ordered up 8/6 for my daily spirited driving purposes. Having a shitload of Dynamat Xtreme in the trunk probably works out for that.

But right now I'm much more concerned about an explanation and update from Mark. The new info. worries me alot.

 

I rush ordered. When I called him, he told me that theyd be here early next week. I will give it till thursday.

 

Can someone post some details on the 240 Group Buy. I can't get access from my Gov't computer for some reason. Also, while we are waiting to figure this out we should compile all available info on Mark. Also, someone should make a call to Mark and get a very detailed explanation of what's going on. If nobody volunteers, I'll do it myself when I get back. I'm running out the door now.
