If you look at the timeline it was the worst time to place an order to be shipped through USPS as it was Christmas/New Years holidays—the busiest time of the year with the most mail to handle. In one of my conversations with a brother-in-law he said that they were so deluged with packages that they were throwing and kicking packages across the floor into a large pile even if the package stated "Fragile" on the outside.
GTM made the mistake of going against their better judgment of using the USPS; the holidays are a bad time to send USPS, and to order custom goods such as a TT setup (people tend to have other things on their mind during these times); there are at least two stories to every side and truth resides somewhere in between.
Now, here's what do know: I salute Joe for serving our country as I come from staunch military family involved all the way, and including the Pentagon; I also respect the vendors making products for the 370Z as there are really so very few these days (even less making turbo setups).

You make a some valid points. When
I spoke with Sam I told him instead of telling Joe the boxes would be the in about 3wk. he should have just said strait out. "I just want to point out to you in case you forgot. This a a busy time of year and I'm going to Hold off shipping till the second week of Jan"
Then to email Joe saying the last boxes shipped already. Then ship those last boxes a week later.
fail. I'm guess that is why when Joe kept asking for the tracking numbers for the boxes GTM had no reply. Oh that right. Sam said his email wasn't working and only after I spoke to him and told him we need a stronger line of communication. He gave an alternate line of communication. I commend him for that. By that time his regular email was working fine.
Anyway,These dates 1/11/11 & 2/4/11 are the Dates that GTM Dropped the boxes off put the date next to there name and signed for shipping. If he had just been honest and upfront as I told him before. We wouldn't have a problem. Well as far as the shipping goes as for the rest...
