Dont worry. They will locate your whipple and deliver it. Anything happens you will not be responsible. Enjoy when you receive it!

Now that is messed up. How on earth can you lose 2 huge boxes that weight a ton.

Man that stinks, I had zero issues with Yellow when they delivered mine. I even worked that day and the driver called when he was 30 mins out. I met him at the curb.

I hope they find it soon.

Since you never signed for it you wont be responsible at all, and Whipple should send you another, but it might take a while.

Good Luck

Oh and since whipple makes you use yellow frieght get them to send you some extra pullies and belts for the trouble.

You can always use those.

Well, they lost it. Time to start the insurance claim process.

Need a new plan.

Yellow was actually very nice about the whole thing and takes full blame. I don't think it is the dealer's fault, nor Whipple, Yellow is the one that lost it, and they are paying up for it. Said to take 3 weeks to get the claim check though, so that kind of sucks. I bet I can't get that same price again, but I am going to try in the morning.

That sucks, i bet you could get ahold of whipple and tell them whats up and they will sell you another at the same price. I really dont see how they lost it.. if the box is anything like the saleen box and it has SALEEN(whipple) written all over it in huge letters someone probably stole it..

anyways good luck with whatever you end up doing

I would definitely get whipple involved. Just email them and let them know the situation. They were very helpful in tracking down my blower.

Well, at least you'll get a check for Yellow's mistake. Sucks that your master plan went out the window, but at least it's only delayed.
