I am waiting for projectors to come in still. I have an estimate for 10 days then a few days after that I will start shipping them out. All of the groups kind of merged together since I had some problems come up.







The group buy is officially closed sorry I can not take any more orders.

I'm interested in possibly buying your set but won't have the money for a bit. Your best bet might be to wait until they are done then sell them to me. That'll give me the opportunity to get the money together :-)

It seems like this kind of thing always happens with group buys. This reminds me a little of FDNewbie's old threads in the FD section.

The projectors should come this week so you guys don't have to wait too much longer.


Also I do have sandrocks spot open so if anyone wants to join you can take his spot.

I think the natives are getting a little restless. We're now over 3 months in, 15 people have signed up and (I assume) paid, and as far as I know, zero products have been delivered.

This does not seem to be a good way to do business. I certainly know that customers expect much more of me...and I'm building engines and whole cars, not just headlights.

Just being told "I'm still waiting on parts" 3 months later does not go far to appease buyers whose money you have. To be clear, I'm not even mad...but there are people in front of me who probably should be. Personally, I went ahead with the order because research indicated that your past customers got their orders within 1 month of paying.

Im with Rotray Resurrection, I know I got in last so I haven't waited as long as everyone else, but im in no hurry at all, I know sometime Group buys have hiccups so I'll be happy whenever I get the awesome lights, but yeah small updates would be nice, since you had an estimate last month when you would get the last parts. Again im in no rush and not bothered, but it may help ease other people.

An update would be nice. Have you received the projectors? I'm glad its winter and my car is off the road. I would be a bit more annoyed if it were spring/summer and I am waiting for these when I could actually use em.

I know everyone is worried about the headlights but some things are out of my control. I get all my parts from a very reputable supplier and they just got the container in yesterday which I am told my projectors are on there. The projectors should be coming my way any day now.

Any updates? Did you get the projectors? I'm sure the rest of group 1 wouldn't mind an update lol.

Nothing... I think we deserve updates. You do have a large chunk of our cash (admittedly I have only paid a deposit since you were going to send pics of blackouts)...

They are officially coming tomorrow. Like I said I have no control over when the projectors would come in so I couldn't make any updates because well I didn't have any.
