Vorshlag Shipping Delay

I ordered camber plates from Vorshlag directly back on Dec 16th and they still have not shipped. When I ordered them they were listed as "In Stock". I've spoken with them multiple times on the phone after they didn't respond to my initial email 2 weeks after my order was placed asking when they would ship out.

I was recently told that they were working on redesigning the main plate so that they can be used on f8x as well. I completely respect their engineering and their commitment to making great products, but it would also be great to know about possible delays while ordering. Luckily I don't need them until the end of January, but I didn't expect to feel rushed needing to install them after ordering a month and a half in advance.

At the end of the day they still make some of the best products, but I would check in before ordering if you need something in a timely manner.

If they are making a product change, I think it's highly unlikely that you'll get them this month.

Update:

Vorshlag refunded me. I feel bad because I really wanted to run their plates, but I'm running out of time.

Sometimes you win when you lose. Those camber plates aren't really that good. Nor is the machine work they do....

ask me off line how I know?

What has your experience been?

On the other end of the spectrum, I found my Vorshlag plates to be some of the best I've ever used.

I ended up with Tc klines. Shipped and received in 3 days!

I am very happy with them, the design is very simple in a good way.

That is another good option.
