Hello,
I placed my order #wcc70804, it's paid. Thoughts?

Why do you ask? Their price of $18.95 seems way low. Depending on which kit this is, they usually are 50-80 bucks. I hope you get it.

Chris_G

Yes it does! Precisely why I jumped on the deal.
The item and shipping has been paid, item hasn't shipped, no communication from WCC. I'm not getting the warm fuzzies.

LT4CMG

Damn good price. When did you order it and pay for it?

Chris_G

01/06/24.
Order was placed and confirmed, then pending shipment, then unfulfilled 🤷‍♂️
Figured I'd share my experience. BTW, the screen capture was today, after the fact.

LT4CMG

I would not worry if I were you, not yet at least. The first business day after you placed your order was literally yesterday.

Chris_G

Thanks, fingers crossed and waiting.

Ordered on the 6th, Saturday. $18.95 for bleeder. $15.99 shipping.

Sorry to hear buddy. Price was too good to be true, although it was their mistake, not yours... Anyway, what die cast is he talking about?

Chris_G

The bleeder comes with a red (cast) or black(plastic) cap. He didn't offer a deal or a discount for the mistake, that is now the corrected price.
It's kind of ironic, here is a quote from WCC a few years back and can be found here on the forum:

"That sale was a one day only event. The prices were set very low on those used and discontinued items to blow them out on that day and that day only. All of the unsold items have been put back into inventory and the prices adjusted accordingly.
Our car sales department saw those wheels that you are talking about Saturday after the show and wanted us to hold them in case they had a car coming in needing tires. Fred came to me yesterday and asked me for pricing and in light of this I am the one who told him $1400 and $2000 since they were informally comitted to them. I am sorry that you did not take advantage of the special price that was available on that day but how can you blame us for that ? If we changed the price on that day, I would see your point. If you see a deal, you should take advantage of it, pay for the merchandise and arrainge for pickup on another day if it was not convenient for you.
I talked to Fred and he did not tell you that he would honor that price on another day. When you called him, he stated that he did not know if they were sold or not. You did not tell him you were coming down from San Diego.
I am sincerely sorry for this but I am sure everyone here including myself have lost out on deals in similar situations. To blame the seller for your failure to move on a great deal is just plain wrong. And for you to bash us on this forum is even worse. It is pretty disheartening to see some of you jumping on the band wagon against us before getting all the facts."

Hello Chris, I am sorry about the pricing on the website being incorrect. This does happen sometimes and we are not responsiable for typographical errors including pricing. If the error is within reason we try to take care of the customer the best we can. In this case it was so far below our cost there was no way we could sell it at that price. We can offer you a discount code to help out with this or a future purchase if you like. Please reach out to me directly.
