I was wondering if you guys ever get your orders early. I purchased a few things this past monday. But my tracking shows a delivery date of 5/12. I as hoping for a Friday delivery [Frown] . Has anyone experienced early deliveries? Just trying to hold out hope for a Friday delivery.

I guess it depends. Of all the companies I've ordered from, they've been the easiest and fastest to work with. Good luck. What did you buy?

Carpet, billet interior accessories, shift boot.... Stoopid UPS doesn't deliver on Saturdays thats what is screwing me up. But I am holding out hope for a Friday delivery. Maybe UPS will be ahead of schedule (yeah right)

50 resto is half and half. Some things I have received instantly, other stuff.... they've taken a few weeks and didn't bother telling me they were either backordered or not on stock. Screwed up the scheduling on one of my projects. I give their customer service 6/10.

Good luck, UPS is never early [Frown]

if this is shipped via ups, the shipping estimates at best on the day quoted so chances are you'll get your part next week. sux...we all know the feeling of wantin to finish up a project before the weekend only to be held back by a part.

I get orders early all the time from them. I ordered some sway bar links from them and I got the product before I could get the tracking order e-mail.

Don't mean to rain on YOUR parade but it's completely out of 50's hands. At this point 50 has NOTHING to do with when you receive it, it's in UPS's hands now. Updates etc, ARE ALL ON UPS.

Ah, I have reading comprehension problems. Thought he meant 50 resto didn't even ship it out yet. Funny, my coworker earlier today was complaining about UPS as well. Guess I'm just being a pessimist [Big Grin]

Good luck, hope you get your parts.

God was cruel to me today.

I saw a dusty brown shadow in the distance, heard the rumbling of a large vehicle accompanying it. "Hark who goes there I said". "Alas t'is a UPS truck me Lord". My wife says. I ran to the curb in anticipation. Then felt crushed as the mean spirited minion in a UPS truck picked up speed, and shifted gears right in front of me as he sped passed my house with my heart in tow.

I feel like kickin his ass.....oh well back to my spiced rum.
