Wow, two separate ‘2 weeks’ mentions in two different threads to…day. Guess there’s no such thing as too much twoness to go around.

1. Money grab?

I don't think you understand how accounting works. By them selling you product at $100, that income only goes into their books once. Even if they didnt ship it out for 2 months, them "holding onto" the shifters does not net them anymore money.

They've most likely discounted the shifters because now there exists TRUE magnetic paddle shifters for the $250 range. Not bashing on the company since it is an ingenious idea, but there would be no way to sustain that pricing when there are many more options available. So yeah, $100 seems fair, and sounds like more you were worried that they'd cancel your order and charge you the difference. (highly unlikely)

2. Even "In stock" items, did you forget about handling times?
I'm pretty sure Triple Seven is maybe a few people running it. Its not like Amazon where they have thousands of workers around the clock to handle logistics.


You placed your order under 2 weeks ago from a different CONTINENT. Have reasonable expectations. I'd hate to see how much you'd cry if you had to wait months for wheels coming from Japan like some of us have.
Lol the shipping address for the order is in the US but nice try spinning it as an international shipping delay.

Shit happens. I spoke to Matt about this as I ordered on the same day as you. My order was spoken to be shipped wednesday, but no updates quite yet.

Shit happens. Understand this. It's not difficult to be an understanding human being.

Seems like we are getting more and more of two types of people on this forum.

1) Those who seem to have a “the customer is always right” attitude.

2) Vehicular hypochondriacs who post about an “issue” that is really just a noise they’ve never experienced.

OP - you obviously haven't been in the car modding group very long. Just wait until someone tells you its going to be a 3 month wait and it turns out to be a year. Word of advise - call the company before you place the order and have someone physically put their hand on the part before you place the order. That's the only true way you will know the item is actually in stock and ready to ship. Never trust the website!

Just tossing my two cents in here, I've worked with Matt and bought a few of 777's products. They've been nothing but awesome and very forthcoming.

Something to keep in mind for the future is these guys are a small business, (I think there's like 4 or 5 of them?) So I wouldn't expect 2 day delivery, customer service within 5 mins of a message, or anything "amazon-esque". They're doing what they can with what they have and trying to offer the community some well made parts. I think it's fair to cut them some slack.
