please dont get me wrong, im not trying to defend his actions, far from it,
rather, from my own circumstances, I lost my broadband at home there, as has nanglebadger, and if it wasnt for me sneaking on in work, I would be beaten.

I had 4 days to catch up on there, and I can understand how 2 weeks could pass.
Thats not to say im naive enough to believe that everyone has good intentions, rather, sometimes we need to just bite the bullet, take action, then tell the tale when finalisation has been realised.

I really do hope you get your goodies though, ive been there and the waiting is a killer.

I think this reflects on how the starlet scene has changed from 4+ years ago, when fast shipping, easy sourcing, and multiple choices for parts were all far from the norm.

Maybe im showing my age but I recall WAITING for 'A' manifold, not a specific one, but ANY manifold to become available, used or new lol!

I didnt mean to come across in that way i know your not defending him and i respect that you have more experience by being a trader and he may get back to me and that would be great ofc and i would appologise in an instance. Yea i think it is just expected too much to have 'instant' delivery lol, anyway should sort itself out, I hope.

EDIT: Thanks alan_d and saffaman :p
