I ordered parts from three different companies and I think they got together and started a contest on who can ship the slowest.
From what I can gather, One is shipping via a 1968 8hp Montgomery Wards riding lawn mower another is shipping via a 4 year old Segway with half battery power and the other is being shipped via the Fukawee Indians. Yes, I know that they can't control the package once it gets to the shipper but when it takes more than 72 hrs to pack one item and get it to the shipper for in stock items, I think is ridiculous. If I took that long, I would be out of a job.
By the way, you might be wondering, What is a fukawee Indian. That's a tribe from here in NE iowa that used to migrate south for the winter but always got lost so they had to stop and ask " Where the Fukawee"

Oh stop. Those of us who watched "F Troop" back in the sixties remember Chief Wild Eagle's story of how the Fugawee Indians got their name. Same as yours only they ended up on their native lands from somewhere else. Buy from www.partsforscooters.com next time. I got a part from Florida to here in upstate New York in two days. |

How many times did Larry Storch get hit with Forrest Tuckers hat? Loved that show.

Another update. It looks like the segway has passed the Montgomery Ward lawn mower even though it shipped two days later and further away. It looks like Monstergy6 will win the slowest shipper award.
