Default luck (or no luck) w apsisusa

Looking for advice---last weekend I saw on a thread an "elbow saver" from apsisusa that looked pretty good (colored hard side with leather top), but I am getting zero response when using the email listed in their thread add. Was the thread legit? Are they legit? Any experience with this product? Thank you.

Common problem but they do respond. Just give them a little time.

An elbow saver is just another term they are using for an arm rest pad.

Neither DS Vettes or Apsis are very fast, but that is because most of their more expensive items are custom made. Neither is particularly easy to get a hold of at times.

I believe both charge at the time of order.

I have purchased from both, and can honestly say they have both frustrated me at times in the past.

But to be fair, I have purchased a few items from Apsis recently and the delivery times were much better.

Jersey at Apsis is legit. I've had one transaction with him (narrow GS front Splash Guards)
They arrived on time and in perfect condition and went on great.

I wrote them to get a quote for some base C6 fender inserts that install from the outside like Z06 and got a very quick reply as well as a shock at how expensive they were!

I have their elbow savers and like them better than the ones offered by other vendors, they look just like the ones that came with the 4LT interiors. I picked them up in person since I am local, so I can't comment on billing vs shipping time but their product is very nice.

I've bought their products. Expensive but high quality.

Only negative is charging the credit card immediately before shipping the product.

I sent an email a couple of weeks ago about splash guards for a C6. Got a pretty quick reply, talked with Jersey who said parts were in stock & would ship quickly (he was on vacation too, took the call anyways). He relayed the info to the shop and the parts shipped/arrived like he said before the weekend. I have no complaints.
