Hey guys,

I'm very sorry for the late reply and the delayed response. As 20B 3rd Gen had mentioned, my father passed away overseas, so I had to travel suddenly. Aside from the significant emotional toll this has taken on me, his passing overseas (vs. in the States) presented its own unique set of problems I've been dealing with practically daily for several weeks now.

I know this isn't anyone's problem but mine, so my apologies for the delay. I'm currently contacting importers Stateside to get the shipment ready for acceptance BEFORE we ship from Japan, because every Customs broker is pretty much PROMISING me that it WILL be subject to being detained & inspected by Customs. So if I can get all our ducks in a row before we ship, hopefully we can streamline the process as quickly as possible, and get the parts into everyone's hands ASAP.

Again, sorry for the delay, but I'll keep you updated as best as I can.

Thanks,
~Ramy

PS: For anyone who I am still holding a credit for, don't worry. I may be slow, but I have NEVER *EVER* taken someone's money and not came through with the part (or if not possible, a refund) in return. On that, you have my word.

Ramy,

My condolences to you and your family.

Joe

Joe, thank you; it's much appreciated. It hasn't been easy.
