Brand new in the box. I emailed them probably 2 or 3 days later asking if they'd shipped my springs yet and if I could have the tracking number. Never got a response so 2 days ago I emailed them again asking for the tracking number again. I get home this morning from work to find an email from them saying this:
Here's my third and final email to them:the H&R 29868 is still on national backordering, we can either issue a full refund or we can ship it out asap when we got those in

Am I wrong in being upset that they do business this way? I would never do that sort of thing and I always maintain great communication with my buyers whether it's on a forum, ebay, whatever. I always get them a tracking number and ship their items as soon as possible. I have their money and it's the sellers job to get their stuff shipped ASAP.You waited 6 days to email me and tell me that it's on backorder? Why are you selling a product you do not have in your posession!? I even emailed you twice before you decided to tell me you don't even have the springs! I never would have bought them from you if I knew this. I could have bought them somewhere else and they would have been here by now. My struts that I bought the same day from another ebay seller will be here today.
You should have stated right in the beginning in plain sight that you don't actually have the springs. Not hide it in the shipping information. This is a bunch of BS. You think anyone seriously wants to wait up to 2 weeks or more for your springs to come in so you can ship them out? NO. I was so excited to put my new suspension in my car so I can actually drive it and now I have to go buy them somewhere else and wait another week for them to get here. Meanwhile my garage is still tied up because my car is up on jack stands with no suspension and I planned to have it out by thursday.
I'm going to find out if you're even allowed to sell items you don't actually possess.
I'm not happy if you haven't noticed. Give me my money back immediately or I will file a complaint with ebay.

Instead they hide their backorder bullshit in the shipping details under the part that tells me how much my shipping will be so why would I look below that? I guess it's my fault for not reading every single word but they shouldn't hide it like that. It should be the first damn thing at the top of the description so people won't have to read the whole thing because they're not going to want to wait for them to backorder something.
Ebay sucks. Used to be great but it's really gone south in the last few years.
