<p>Shipping items one by one... that is new to me. Sneaky too.</p><p>Dont order from people who have to re-order or buy from a third party to have it shipped to you.</p><p>Try to find a vendor in the Internet that has the stuff in STOCK, physically INSIDE thier facility and ready to go out TODAY.</p><p>Walthers and Horizion comes to mind.</p><p>Better yet, have a Hobby Shop special order it. I bypassed Atherans monstor shipping charges this way once. I got the parts I wanted, the store made a profit and Athearn thier money everyone is happy.</p><p>3 weeks is unacceptable to me. I would call and cancel the order and have the credit card reverse charges for non delivery and find another vendor who can actually physically put the item into the mail TODAY... not weeks and weeks.</p><p>Dont confuse my 3 week time frame with pre-orders that will arrive months or years down the road at the local hobby shop. When I buy computer parts on Newegg, it is on the truck and at my door inside 24 hours out of Memphis. (I pay 3 day shipping rate. But dont tell anyone LOL)</p><p>When I buy something from Ebay, I expect that item to ship within 7 days of my payment and at my door no more than 12 days hence. After that period, I start making noise about non delivery.</p>
