Thanks for the info Monish. Sucks that this is happening, however it is what it is. Im hopeful they can get their stuff in order. This delay is rather frustrating.

My ramjet from RK shipped on 3/31 was delivered in a week on EMS, so maybe I lucked out if there is such wide spread delay with things

Looks like TFsource lied about Takara recall, instead they are opening and checking for the issue themselves. BBTS posted that they are opening boxes and checking for shoulder and other issues, and they do not know of a takara recall.

I have the shoulder issue and did the swap on my Ramjet

TFSource seems to just keep getting more and more sleazy lately

Wow! Thanks for the info. Glad someone could get some answers. I know it's a first world problem and all, but man, when I pay for EMS shipping I want my mail quickly. That Pacific Processing centre sure does have their share of problems. I once had to wait six months and visit them in person four times to get reimbursed for damages that CBSA caused to one of my orders from Japan that they inspected. Or should I say, slashed with a box cutter . You would have thought that the bubble wrap would have clued them into the fact that it was a fragile item and colectable.

Anyways, good to know that I may eventually see my Shockwave as I am in the same boat as many of you. It shipped out on the 31st of Mar and went into shipping limbo after it left Japan.

I ordered mine from AE and With all these delays on orders that were using EMS, I may as well give up on the hope that I will get mine this upcoming week since I chose registered SAL.
