I've been calling him constantly and he hasn't been answering at all. I'm pretty ticked also, because this isn't the first time my UPS store has f'ed up my shipments. I'm gunna go there and see if they can track them by insurance numbers.
Gary you should get a UPS account, the UPS stores are very expensive. Online accounts receive a discount on shipping and have instant access to tracking. The ‘Quantum View Notify’ option will automatically eMail all shipping information to your customer. For $12 a week the UPS driver will stop by at the end of each day and pick up (a real time saver). You can get one at http://www.ups.com/content/...n/welcome/index.html
Good luck on your new endeavor, MrMike

I do all my UPS stuff online. Easy to open an account, print your own labels, plus they pickup everyday where I work. I shipped a whole bunch of stuff (Canada, too) when I parted my car.
I usually ship via USPS, but our local post office closes at 5, so sometimes I'm forced to use UPS. And I'm not Gary, I just use his materials. My names Dallas.

get an account with fedex. everything same as ups except the ground shipments are cheaper and you can easily get anothe 10 or 20 percent depending on how much you do. If you want I can give your contact info to my shipping agent in fed ex. His sole job is to make me happy. Perks of having a account.

Dallas, I don`t remember when you said you shipped these covers but when I have ordered stuff to come to Texas before it sometimes has taken quite a few days. Hopefully tomorrow they will show and I will post from work if I get them. Mike
My 87 GT has seats out of an 84/85. Speaker seats w tan leather sides and the middles are furry like a lamb. I would like to get a set for my 88 like this except I want the leather to be black. I guess the leather should be the fake stuff but can you give me a price either way and if you can do it.
The UPS store said that they cannot track by insurance unless a claim is made, and it hasn't been out long enough to open one. I did talk to my father finally, and he won't be home for a week, but his car is at the park and fly, so I am going to try and make it out there tomorrow to get my bag from his car.

ok im not trying to threaten you or sound like a dick but to protect my self i only have 30 days to notify paypal. i paid you on march 4 so i need to see these seats before April 1 or i will have to open a complaint (this is not a refund it just gets paypal involved). In your first thread you stated "Seats will be shipped no later than 1 week after payment is made. I will take pictures of seats upon completion and post them here." i feel i have been very patient and im still not mad but there has been problem after problem on this i would relay look into getting everything set before offering these on a wider scale please do all you can to get those tracking numbers today.

You can see by Chris`s post above that he`s still waiting and I am as well. I think the only other one who ordered was Australian and I think he ordered leather and I haven`t seen him post lately so I can`t answer that. Mike

The parka nd fly won't let anyone get near the cars without a ticket, even with drivers license and all that jazz. I guess we have to wait it out, I'm really sorry, I'm doing all I can. And Chris, its 60 days not 30. I have been doing ebay for many years now.
maby ebay has a 60 day but this was off paypals web site.
Step 1 - Identify issue
Most disputes are the result of simple misunderstandings. It’s best to initiate communication with the seller as soon as you recognize a potential problem.
You can open a dispute in the Resolution Center within 45 calendar days of payment. By opening a dispute, you are able to communicate directly with your seller to work out a problem transaction.
If you and your seller are unable to agree on a solution, you must escalate the dispute to a PayPal claim within 20 calendar days of the date the dispute was opened. By escalating to a claim, you would be asking PayPal to review the case and decide the outcome.
i can give you a little longer but you say you mailed out 3 sets of seats and no one has recived them unless your on a list for home land security thats kind of unheard of.
I'm not being rude by saying this, but if you feel starting a claim will help then you can, but It's only working you towards a refund and nothing else. I don't know how this has happened, but I am trying and this is costing me time and money also. You all aren't the only ones losing. I had to do all of that work through alot of pain and for this to happen makes me furious.
would you guys post up pics and reviews of these seat covers if/when you receive them? hopefully they turn up, but the only bad thing ive ever heard about mr mike is the price, but considering the amount of work to make them, they sound about right

If you think opening a dispute with paypal is a insult to you its not. you have to say im pretty trusting to be the first to send money on a new guy just starting out in doing something. i also didn't press the 2 week time frame you promised us. but i have never heard of 2 items in the usa not making it. and still im giving you the benifet of the doubt. if this makes you feel like im some one who dose not who is not worth of your seats send me my money back and we can part ways. i will be opening a dispute if this gets close to the 45 day mark. but think of this, would you have made the seats and mail it on my word to pay you once it got here? how about if i told you i sent you the money and it would be there friday and it was a week later and i didnt have any proof that i sent it. at that point if you had a mediator that would help make sure that you are not going to loose money but it had a time frame would you not use it? maby a little more info on your part. when will your day be back? have you called the post office and asked for help?

I don`t really care if my seat covers go to China and back, I just would like some tracking numbers so I could see where they are. My dealings with UPS have been pretty favorable in that usually if the tracking says a certain day then that`s when they arrive. The only time that something I ordered went somewhere else is when I got part of my order but the other part went to San Antonio, but I had it the next day.

Dude you better straighten this out and quik man. You need those tracking numbers. I want to order those seats from you but I can't until I see whats up. I like to help the little guy get started and all but. I will have to get them done elsewhere soon. I need them for westfest in june.
There isn't anything more I can do guys. I have to wait until the 5th to start a claim and then I can get them tracked by insurance numbers. If I find anything out before then I'll let you all know.

where do you get the 5th from? this is off ups' sight
1. Lost Package Reported Shippers and receivers can report a lost package on UPS.com. Shippers are encouraged to report the lost package because claim notification letters are not sent to receivers.
In order to be considered lost, a package must be undelivered 24 hours after the expected delivery date and time. A report cannot be made until then.
Once you report a lost package, you can check the status of your report online. Contact UPS if you have any questions or concerns.
Note: Loss can only be reported online for packages that have an origination and destination within the United States. To report loss for international packages, contact UPS.
thats 24 hours not 2 weeks
please send me the number you have for insurance i have a friend at ups that will help.
Dallas, please be up front with me. i called ups and they said you can go to the ups store you shiped them at and they can find lost tracking numbers. you can make a claim after 24 hours. if you would please send me a pm with your number and the best time to call you.
Well then the people at the UPS store don't know what they are doing. I gave them my information and they told me that I could not make a claim until the 5th. I have no control over what I was told. I will call UPS after work and hopefully get this whole thing sorted out.
Both the tracking and insurance numbers are void, because of a return to sender. Thats all that was listed under my name. They have been sitting at my Dad's law office since the 24th! The addresses were correct but the city state zips were swapped. His secretary thought they were just a shipment of brakes so never mentioned them. I am going to pick them up tomorrow morning.
