I was looking through some old threads about Shark Racing and seeing people who have waited for months on end to receive a part. It made me wonder how long some of you have waited to receive something. If you ordered something that took months to arrive, why wouldnt you just cancel it or do a charge back on your credit card?

I usually have no problem with SR but I did order headers from Custom Tiburon and it took 6 months to get them.

Almost everything takes about a month to reach australia, but I think that I had to wait for like two months to get a MAF from some eBay seller.

Bought a lightweight flywheel (maybe off of ebay, don't remember) and it took 3 months to show up due to being back ordered. Received it and it was incorrect size. Was for the larger beta crank. Sent it back and got my replacement like 3 days later.
