What is the name or order number? I'll see what we can do from this end. Sorry for the problem. You know it only happens when it's important. If it was January they would of course arrive on time, maybe even early.

You really cant blame Mbam some things are beyond the shippers control,

If you where On such a close time line you really shouldnt of take the shipping risk just to save a couple of dollars, if the parts weren't available locally then I could see mail order


I have heard nothing but great things about his company

Joe, thanks for the support. Michael, we are very sorry for your problem, but we did our job 100 %. Order was placed 10:35PM 5/23, we processed it at 8:47 AM on the 24th, was shipped the same day. According to UPS the delay was caused by weather which is excluded from their guarantee. However, we do swing some weight with them are doing our best to get a refund on the shipping on your behalf.

I'm going to include the text from the page where you select your choice of shipping below-----------

The shipping options above refer to time in transit only . Weekends, holidays and the day of shipment do not count. We want you to have your parts, however the actual shipping date of your order is beyond our control and not guaranteed. PLEASE CLICK HERE to see order and shipping deadlines, commitments and an explanation of backorders. Our site does not show actual available inventory. The expected ship date of your order is updated on-line by 2:00 EST (weekdays only) the day your order is placed. Tracking numbers are added when your order is shipped. We have an enormous inventory, and a major Mercury warehouse delivers to us twice a day, so most orders placed by our 10:30 EST cutoff ship the same day or within 24 hours.
-----------

I am also going to include our version of the part of most on-line order systems where you agree to the terms of the order ------
----------------------------------------------------------------
By completing this order you agree to our terms and conditions and understand our shipping commitments and backorder choices.

I specifically understand and agree that my selection of 1, 2 or 3 day shipping does not guarantee the actual ship or arrival date of my parts.You also agree that you are solely responsible for the quantities and part numbers you have ordered. Yes, I understand and agree to the terms and conditions of this order.
----------------------------------------------

We work VERY hard to get you your parts, as a "seasoned" boater myself I understand the importance of this.

If you have any other questions or issues please call me directly at 954 545 8681.
