Default VENDOR, Zip Corvette info

Zip Corvette is a supporting vendor but do they have a username on the forum?

I e-mailed them 5 days ago and no response so I want to try contacting them in here...

Thanks, but I'm in Saudi Arabia. Apart from giving myself a headache that would kill a dog trying to work out the time difference, it would cost me a small fortune to phone...

I noted your avatar and knew where you were. That's why I posted the time zone. You can call ZIP and actually speak to someone regarding your questions, or you can keep dashing off email.

Thanks mate, but it's still worth more a minute on the phone bill than my order cost. I got a reply from Justin just now...

Ditto. They may be one of the last of the old time venders without gripes.
