BUMP BUMP!! About 12 hours to go! TWM is located in east coast Canada so I'm assuming this GB ends at midnight east coast time (9pm pacific).

So if you've ever thought about getting a short shifter and have been holding off, now's your chance and save 15%!!

Did we get the 10 confirmations?

8 confirmed. I hope TWM will still hook us up since we have already paid with the 15% off. If not, they should let us know so we can decide if we still want to go through with the order....

I hope so too! Let's see... They were supposed to ship on monday....it sucks that we had 10 signed up and not everyone followed through...I was surprised not to see this list get bigger quicker

You guys know if we re still getting the deal, despite getting only 8 buyers?

JJsBusaRox

NYG37S, they haven't said anything yet so we can assume we are still getting the discount. Quite honestly I think it would be foolish on their part to not give it to us and them having to refund our money back.

UPDATE: I just got off the phone with TWM. They still have not received the supply of shifters for our car due to some problems with the suppliers equipment. I should hear back from them either today or tomorrow at the latest. As soon as I find out, I'll let you all know....

Please keep us updated. I ordered thorough this GB to try to make sure there were enough orders to help everyone to benefit. But if there is going to be significant delays from when the parts were expected, I will cancel and just reorder it for the same price through another source that will only charge me when the part is in hand locally. I know that "stuff happens" and a few days isn't a big deal. But if it starts to drag out into weeks and months, I'll just back out and get a refund. There's things I could be doing with my money rather than letting TWM hold on to it.

I am monitoring this closely. Like you and everyone else, I'm just as anxious to get my stuff. I'm still waiting for them to get back to me. As soon as I know, you'll know...

I work nights so I'm getting ready to go to sleep. I just called them but no answer. If anyone wants to call them, feel free to do so and post up the info. Thanks...

Fellas, below is the info I received from TWM via email and my reply:

Alex,*

Thanks for the info and we will definitely appreciate the FREE upgrade to the expedited shipping. *I sure hope that this is it and that there will be no more delays. I understand it's out of your hands and that your supplier is going as fast as he can. But some of the guys are concerned and hope that this doesn't drag on longer since we were told initially that it would be ready at the beginning of August.*

Please keep me posted so I can keep the guys from the group buy informed.*

Thanks,
Jesse*

HI,

I spoke with my supplier and the shifters are being machined as we speak,
however, the complete PO (shifter and bushings) that are needed will only
be finished and at TWM Performance on the 26th VERY latest. I will be
getting some parts in advance so I can start assembly and coating while
waiting for the bushings that will be machined last. At this point, I
understand that there has indeed been a delay of 1.5 weeks beyond what was
mentioned to you for your group buy. Because I am ordering a very large
quantity of these shifters, the machining cannot go any faster, my
supplier is working day and night, literally...

I am willing to offer FREE EXPRESS shipping to all the group buyers, so
shipping will take ONE day to their doors as soon as it leaves from our
facility hopefully early on the week of the 29th. In reality, to the
buyers, this will only cause a 4-5 day delay, as shipping would usually
take another 4-7 days to reach the buyers with standard shipping.

Feel free to contact me if there is anything,

TWM's reply to my reply. Man that was fast! :

Sure thing Jesse, Like i said the supplier has a given delivery date that
he must respect and that is of August 26th. I spoke with him this morning
and he is already finishing up some parts, which is very good. I do not
forsee any other delays that could happen, unless I receive not-to-spec
parts, where the supplier must redo them. (but this rarely happens, im not
worried about this, my best supplier is taking care of these shifters)

I will be sure to let you and Patrick of the latest info on your order.

Thanks,

Alex

No problem fellas. I'm just as excited and concerned as you all. I was hoping that this would have been installed in my car prior to a meet coming up on the 27th! I'm disappointed, but what can I do right?

NYG37S, you sure are right about working nights and having a whacked sleep pattern! Man, mine is all jacked up at the moment! Haha!
