    That sucks. Is he stuck with extra compressors or just the hassle of dead beats.
    Shit like this does not encourage other vendors offering GB's

    You got that right! He got stuck making up the cost for the lack of group shipping. The shipper (FedEx) is still working through the now individual shipments. They basically had to cancel the group shipment and rearrange for individual shipment.

    He's a runs a great shop and is a reliable vendor. After the TW guys dropped out, it really screwed things up!!
    Also, the shipper (FedEx) has had various warnings announced on their website regarding delays in tracking, shipping, delivery...all things the vendor has no control over.

    I spoke with him at length and he feels horrible about not being able to control this. He has been very responsive to emails and phone calls for this gb knowing that it's important for you all to know when your item is arriving.

    We're working out the available single compressors and I updated the OP to reflect the available units.

    If there are any concerns, please feel free to PM me directly to discuss.
    If you are so inclined, a positive review on the vendor's fb page would be a nice/helpful thing to do, especially given the circumstances.

    Thanks amigos!

    I can't believe that people would back out when this is such a great deal. I hope the vendor keeps up these kinds of deal with this forum, even with the amount of people that flake out. I paid the invoice within 10 minutes of receiving it and was shocked at the deal we're receiving here.

    ***ONLY 2 LEFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I will (unfortunately) need to repeat...If you're on the list, you are committed to purchasing.
    The vendor (typically a small business competing with big box vendors) works hard to bring these deals and takes a hit financially when folks back out. It also leaves fellow members hanging in the wind as to their orders.
    Don't be THAT GUY.

    Thanks

    I bought the inflation kit and their gauge aswell off Amazon. Both work very well. Just got the wiring finished up today and it works flawlessly. Thanks again to imtaconico and the vender!

    If you all wouldn't mind taking a few seconds to leave positive feedback on the vendor's Facebook page (reviews)...he'd greatly appreciate it!

    ^^^^This is why.
    He's been working with the shipper to obtain the tracking details but since they had to be shipped individually, he no longer has the ability to obtain the numbers until it is out for delivery.
    He's reached out to ARB to see if he can drop ship from them and then you would send him back the compressor he sent. He's working on it with many parties right now. The guys backing out after shipping was set REALLY caused issues.
