I just saw this, so I'll respond now.
I first of all - want to apologize for the issue you had with us.
These mirrors you purchased, which are from Rexpeed, are one of the only replacements and very popular. So they basically sell out a soon as they are in stock. When that happens, we have these drop-shipped right from Rexpeed, which means the package comes from overseas. We don't charge extra for this. This is to save time on your end, instead of them coming to us first, then shipping out to you.
Doing it his way saves time, but unfortunately also takes a bit of time to get to the U.S. It's this few days of interim time where the USPS tracking number won't work until it hits our shores. So that's why there was a delay in your tracking number showing invalid. We then had to contact Rexpeed and get it resolved, communicating with a manufacturer on the other side of the planet takes a couple days to sort out.
So you Did get the right tracking number, it just took us a couple days to get it straightened out.
We didn't forget you, or make a mistake and try and scam you. We were very up front with you the whole time. It was a simple tracking/shipping error on the other end, which we resolved.
We don't have a "live inventory" system on our site, the reason is that items come in and go out of stock so fast, and can ship from so many places, that it wouldn't be accurate. The last thing we want to do is have it say "in stock" and because another guy just bought the same brake pads minutes before, you get screwed on your important trackday. We actually have a *Notice* before you checkout that says to contact us if you need an item ASAP, and we can arrange to try and make that happen. We also email you if the item is not in stock and give you an ETA so you can arrange around that.
So again, I am sorry your mirrors took a bit of time to get to you, but we did everything we could to get your issue resoled quickly.
We do appreciate your business. And thanks to all of those who posted here to give us kudos we appreciate you too!
-Tristan
