[wydopen]

so i order the stuff i NEED to get on the water this weekend monday moring before 12....i ordered some misc items as well as the gasket i need for my bpipe headpipe...i explain that i need them by the weekend and if anything else in the order was going to hold them up to ship the gasket seperatly..he says no problem everything will go out today...

well its now thursday and they just sent me the tracking # w/ an estimated time of delivery on monday!!!!...i always order from blowsion and they are usually very good w/ shipping..however this is the second time ina row they have done this......

i can live with them sending me the wrong sized hardware half the time..but when they say they are gonna get me something by the weekend i would expect that they do....

mabye ill rethink that jk hood and bracket i was going to buy for my rn project...oh well looks like ill be making a gasket tonight..

my friend and i have had the same issues also. between my orders and my friends we have placed a total of probably 10 orders and there has been something not right with probably 75% of them. From pink helmets to wrong carb gaskets to a different fuel cap than what i ordered to shipping days later even when I payed for overnight. They are helpful friendly guys but I think they need to pay a little more attention to the details.

I avoid Blowsion at all costs. They have some innovative products, but I have never had a good experience with there shipping. It's a little slow, but 3 times they have got the order wrong or they forgot to ship something, ect..
Most of the parts they don't make. Yes they make hoods and some billet stuff, but I will get it somewhere else if I can.

BCW in Long Beach has that gasket in stock, I bought one yesterday. Dunno if they ship? They have a lot of that stuff in stock. If you ever need anything like that shoot me a pm, I can pick it up and mail it same day, you would have it in a day, your pretty close.

like i always do, professionally and personally is to follow up, especially when i am needing something by X-date

hate to say it, but if you didn't get a shipping confirmation by tuesday/wednesday why didn't you follow up?
people are busy and make mistakes, and yes you shouldn't have had to follow up, but sometimes ya need to, especially if it's that important to you

getting missing parts or broken parts sucks too, so i feel that pain

i had an issue with my nephews bike, opened the box rims were bent, we called to get them replaced, they person on the phone accused us of denting them, and then did not expedite the shipment of the rims. to me that is poor service. i know he is middle man (staging person), but you sometimes need to go the extra mile, especially when someone bought expensive stuff recently

When i got my last helmet they said it would be here by Friday. I got it three days early. Just wanted to say they treated me well.

i realy like most of their products...they just seem to be a little inconsistant w/ shipping and quality imo...

Blowsion has always treated me well. Shipping sucks to KY and it takes almost a week via UPS ground.

I would rethink that JK hood kit..........I have not heard very good things about that one.

There was a hood review in anouther thread and it did not score very well in comparison to others. I think the 2 best reviews were for the SR-7 hood from 24/7 and the WDK diablo hood.

i totally agree with you and understand about being busy too
but with any vendor i don't trust anyone until confirmed
you definately have a legit gripe, but if you order again, you know you will need to keep an eye out

i have ordered from them various times, and had to follow up on one of the orders. most of the time i haven't had issues

Have you called them to explain the problem and see what they want to do to fix the issue? If so, and you're still unhappy then fair enough. If you haven't, I believe a phone call to John or Mark will get things squared away and would be the diplomatic thing to do. I would post here only as a last resort. No one here can solve the problem. That's for sure.

like i said ill get my ski on the water...what are they gonna do about it???..they arnt gonna get me the part by today...the only reason i posted here was to see if other people have noticed that their shipping has seemed to be a little lax latley...and it seems it has

Always call to get things resolved. E-mail is nice, but getting someone on the phone is always better IMO.

I dunno what part of their business is shipping parts but it seems that it would be a large part. You shouldn't have to follow up on shipping from a company that ships so much. They also say they will process orders same day b4 12.
