Just letting you know payment was made on the 23 June 08 and now its 26 September 08. Thats a quarter of the year and still going. Its not your fault Andrew but i have a bad feeling this is not going to get better, if the US dollar changes its going to get worse and as far as i am concerned if i was ACPT i would not be giving in to cheaper freight, as I can guarantee they would have a figure included in the freight for their time for prepping the shafts to send off, packaging etc. I think we bite the bullet pay the difference that way it is definate and they will have to honour their service by sending them off asap. The longer this goes on the worst it is going to get, well thats how i feel about this situation. They are a large corporation who could more than likely care less whether a few Australian people are annoyed. They have money in their possession already and still holding the goods with no incentive to move them on without balancing their books to the change in the dollar. Think about it.
