Default My turbo is "lost in the mail"

Can you believe this? After the fiasco I had trying to get the T25 flange manifold and the runaround one company gave me, then I got another run around and a cold shoulder from a favorite online store of many hondatech members, now UPS LOST MY TURBO!!! I sent it Monday to Majestic and the tracking number doesn't work. Scheduled delivery was yesterday. They didn't get it yet. UPS doesn't know where it is. I have to wait 8 days for a trace. Who knows how long after that before they pay me back for it. I ship maybe ten things out using UPS per year, and one gets lost? That's a horrible ratio. I'm going to start driving things myself rather than paaying shipping companies for their slow delivery times, poor package handling, and irresponsibility.

Sorry - had to vent.

I always drive my turbo up to Kevin (Majestic)... it is a little bit of a drive, but when you go in, he will usually fix it right then and there.. you cant beat same day service!

Man I would be soooooo BROKE if I lived that close to Importparts!!

I can't believe you have had to put up with so much sh*t Mplex! Sometimes the turbo brings with it bad luck for some reason. The nature of the "dark side" I guess.
