I'm assuming from the fact that I have a line on my account statement saying "JW Racing - £36.43" that you've actually despatched some wipers to me? If not can you explain why you've taken the money without actually having stock?

UHF et al
I did explain to everybody on Monday that the orders were to be processed on Monday, I even made sure emails were sent to everyone involved stating that payment had been received.
Now I was under the impression that we (myself and my PIAA supplier) had these in stock, unfortunately the numbers far out wieghed the 10 originally predicted, more like 40+ in fact!
Obviously to refund everybody would be a huge work load, certainly more than the sum of the profit this group buy has created. I will however agree to refund anybody now individually if this causes anyone else a problem.
Please let me know BY EMAIL, that is by EMAIL and this will be done.
UHF - I HAVE NOW CANCELLED YOUR ORDER.
Again soome people on here seem to be forgetting the facts that this is a group buy where only margins are really just being covered, in order to give YOU the best prices. Please bare this in mind, and also be safe in the knowledge that we are doing our best to get the blades in ASAP. Group Buys are never simple, so please be patient and a little leniant with us, we are doing our best!
Also don't worry about any unknown entity clearing the UK of stock due to this group buy, in real terms Subaru really wouldn't care that people are buying relatively small ammounts compared to their high stock levels.
Many thanks.

I was number 6 on the list, I thought you said that there was enough stock to fulfil 10 orders? If what you're saying is that you fulfilled them in the order that you received the money then thats absolutely insane as not everyone can constantly check the site, I was under the impression that all the details would be taken before 10pm so that the orders could be sent out the next day, if so surely my wipers should have been sent the next morning in the first batch of 10?

I think the first 10 would have been the first 10 to have paid, not your place on the list, otherwise, being no.3, I would have mine by now 
I have no problem with waiting Jamie.
