I placed an order and sent payment to Greg at Cooleze on Oct 6th for a catback and still have not recieved it. I sent him an email Oct 19th to check on the order and he forgot to send it out and told me he would ship it the next day. Fast forward to Nov 6th and I still have no catback pipes. Sent him an email and he said he misplaced the order and that is the reason he had an extra set of catback pipes laying around. Either way, I think I have been patient, but waiting a month to ship out some pipes is rediculous.

Once the stuff ships you will still have to wait. For some reason it seems that Canadian stuff takes a long time to get to a US destination. It took a month to ship a gasket from Raptor Racing to Wisconsin.

I've ordered several things from Greg Pickett and yes, it does take a lot of time to get it in ;). The best thing do is bitch about how long it's taking and he will start throwing in shit for free, worked twice for me ;).

I ordered a full intercooler harpipe kit, megamouth downpipe, and test pipe, took forever, bitched moan and groaned, and got the turbo inlet pipe for free!

Ordered another megamouth downpipe, test pipe and turbo inlet pipe for a different supra, and he only charged me 480.00 shipped. That's pretty much saying he gave me the test pipe for free since it costs 89.00 and that's about what I saved...

Try this method out and it's more than worth the wait ;).

Dang Aaron...sorry that took so long...I was just checking my paper work to see if I screwed that one up. Sometimes it takes me a few days to ship stuff depending on my schedule...hope that didn't mess things up for you.

In general guys cross boarder shopping is the cultprit most of the time. It's not just Canada to US; it's also US to Canada. I've been shopping for car parts from the US for years and 1 month is not unheard of. Not that i'm on the other side of the transaction (selling to the US) i've seen that there are times when Customs...either Canada or US holds the part for absolutely no reason for a week or so. This can delay the entire shipment. Assuming there are no delays using expidited shipping you're looking at 5-7 business days minimum. Now add a 7 business day customs delay and you can see where the problem lies. Now if the vendor has claimed they've screwed up that's another story...

According to Greg, he has finally shipped my package. Now I'll see how long it takes to get to me. I hope these catback pipes are worth it.
