Unless Xterraparts delayed placing my order, it's Calmini that's slow... so though I'm slightly annoyed at Xterraparts for not giving me an upfront date estimate, going direct wouldn't change the delivery date.

The reason I went through them is that I pay the same price from either place - but if I get it from Xterraparts I can go pick it up at their place (Courtesy Nissan, Plano - about 5 mins down the road) when it arrives and not pay a dime in shipping (and I have it in writing!). I assume I'll have to pay sales tax this way - which I might have been able to avoid going direct - but the tax is significantly less than shipping on an item like this.



I'm a very impatient gotta-have-it-now kinda guy and this is severely bumming me out.
