No problem. I will keep you posted. When I have the fairings, I will package them and I will let you know the price before I ship them to you. That will include the price of the fairing, the courier to me and the postage to you. The courier from Rickman to me will be divided to the total amount of buyers so it will be cheaper. I will post here all the details. Thank you!

So till now it's me, Sean, panrider and Robbos. Between us, we have 4 complete fairings (3 of a type, 1 of another) and 1 clear screen. The shipping cost will be divided by 4. I go call them now.

Good luck George, it's a good thing you are doing. You would do well to get money up front. I did this with a bulk buy on heavy duty tubes, and almost everyone welched, despite their requests, and knowing EXACTLY how much they were, up front! . :(

I will only send the screen as soon as I see the money in my account. I can't ask for the money without knowing how much the total price is. I could use a deposit scheme or something like that. This is just a trial, let's see what we get first.

Do you know, that really disappoints me. I would have thought we were a close enough community to support the guy who puts in a fair bit of time to give us the platform that we communicate on. I have met many good friends / people here who (i think) i would trust. Please don't destroy my faith in the human race !!

Ok, sorry for the delay. I've been postponed 2 times with the payment. So called yesterday and they've said that they have the fairings... they just need to trim them and I'm looking to have them shipped by the end of this week. So I'll have the fairings either this weekend or the next week. One guy deals with orders, another with receiving payments... so they've told me yesterday that I'll get a call back from them. Never happened. Called today to pay for the order, still not the right guy... told me they'll call me back in 10 minutes. Never happened, so called again and this time he told me that they will call me before they send the items to me to take the payment. They've said that they do not think is fair to charge well before the items are ready. Also requested to have a detailed list of prices including postage to have as proof for the people who placed an order through me. They've said that they can do that for me. So now I need to wait for the fairings to be ready for shipment and to pay for the whole lot. Will keep you posted. :)

I don't regret it. Just want to see the fairings in my hands so I can start being happy. :lol: When I commit to doing something, I persevere until the end. So no need to thank me, I do this for me as well.

PS: But your're welcome nevertheless. :)

Top man. If you can get the square headlight variety I would be very pleased to have one off you.That is to say the full thing, fairing screen, brackets, the lot. I'm happy to pay upfront.
