My u-joint finally showed up. It only took 3-4 un-answered e-mail attempts, almost giving up, deciding to write off my loses, and finally deciding to Never buy from those guys again. Then about a week later I got an e-mail from their shipping department that they had been informed of a miss-shipment and asking me to confirm that I had received a miss-shipment. They couldn't understand this, since nobody had ever contacted them.
That just rubbed me the wrong way, so I sent a rather Snarky reply back to them. This included a copy of the e-mail that I has sent to both the shipping department AND the sales department, the dates of the follow-up e-mails, along with the comment that I was seriously considering just writing off my loses and NEVER buying from them again.
2 days later I got my u-joint. I guess the squeaky wheel DOES get the grease.
After I get the yard-work done this weekend I'll see about getting some more work done on Benchy, maybe even getting some paint on the hull.
