Thanks for ordering the valves Alf, I'll get those out to you this evening.
I'm not too sure on delivery times to the States to be fair, but if I had to take a punt I'd say 3-5 days.
However - I have lost track of who's who with these usernames but if Keystone got his yesterday then they most likely took 9 days wherever he lives :(
If it's worth it to you another $17 (£10.92) gets you them 'next day' which would be day after tomorrow.
I'm about to go home so perhaps I'll wait until tomorrow to post yours just in case you want to come back to me on that.
Paypal address is james@bdkraceeng.co.uk
Take it slow - Brock

Thanks a lot Brock the normal shipping will be great! I was just curious as I've ordered other stuff from overseas from other companies before and have had to wait almost a month to receive parts so a week or two will be fine seeing as I'm still waiting for my other parts to come in anyways.

I plan on ordering these this Thursday, I assume you haven't sold out of them yet? Thanks.

You're still good. :)

Brock,
I plan on purchasing a set of valves as well. Unfortunately I will have to wait for a month or so. Do you plan on making more valves once this first batch sells out?

Thanks,
Buck

Yes Indeed we are and just as well. I'm not too bad for valves and gears themselves right now but I'm running low on bush's - I think I only have enough left for 1 or 2 sets now. We have more material on order and should get to work on the next burst in a few days which will be a larger run this time and give us a bit more breathing space.
Hopefully if I've timed this right we shouldn't run out.

I just placed an order right now. I really need these valves as mine are shot. Hopefully shipping across the pond won't take too long.

We'll soon see Kris. They are on their way.

Has anyone else besides Keystone received theirs? Three work weeks, I haven't seen anything yet...

203BikeLifeCHiNO yours is in Kennedy New York and is being 'processed for delivery' at present.

Couldn't quite work out which order Gotanubike's is..... best to mail direct or look on the webshop - there will be a tracking number associated with your package. You can look the progress up on the link shown at the top.

All the best,

Brock

Thanks Brock, No tracking number on order page, Status is 02/02/2015 "preparing"

Order ID is #165

No problem. That explains a lot.
If the payment had gone through it would show 'paid'.
Could you check your paypal statement just to be sure - I suspect something must have gone wrong during the payment process.

Looks like mine have been sitting in Customs for the last week. They made it to the US very quickly, now the officials on this side of the pond need to get off their duffs and get me my KIPS dammit!

Brock@BDK · Post by **Brock@BDK** » 10:44 am Jul 23 2015

Same ol' same ol' - with us their favourite is for the shipping company to incorrectly handle the bill of lading leading to customs charges and then add lots of ancillary handling, storage, admin charges and ask that of the receiver - even when there was no duty due in the first place. It's a con and something which it would appear that some companies (especially DHL) are doing systematically. Less common with normal national mail.

Looks like I found where part of my next paycheck is going. Very nice job on the valves and I'll let you know when I'm ready to place an order
