So I ordered a set of centre caps for my wheels through ebay in early April, said it would be delivered between April 20th and June 6th. I got a China post tracking number that wasn't updated since April 14th and waited. In the meantime I installed the summer wheel and popped the caps out waiting for them to arrive, probably saw me capless at Rob's meat (wait wat?).
Well June 6th comes and goes, email the seller and he sends me the same tracking number that hasn't been updated since april. I get ebay involved, they set up a dispute claim that I have to wait 4 days for then call them back only to tell me to call back the next day. I waited an extra day and would call them today but went out to lunch first and put the oem caps back on the car.
Of course as i pull back into my driveway the mailman is there with the fucking caps for me to sign. If I had just waited another 30 freaking minutes!

When I order random shit from DX.com, I usually end up forgetting about it ...
Then when they finally come, it's Christmas
That's the only way to go about this kind of shit when you order anything from China...

I find sometimes Amazon stocks some more popular items locally with the price a few dollars higher. I usually just do that and with prime get it in 2 days and not have to deal with the hassle. Most stuff off Amazon.ca comes in 48 hours even without the Prime account. The 3rd party items takes a bit longer.
I love prime because I like to buy under $10 items all the time

A 6 week range for a delivery date. Damn that's ridiculous.

That's china, they ship the cheapest way possible to squeeze a few cents for profit.
