I sure hope I get my items in a timely manner like you did!
Today I ordered the black leather airbag cover/carbon fiber center emblem with the Corvette cross flags, with the red shield pattern stitching.
I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope all goes well with the shipment. Sometimes I've had issues down here near Houston, Texas with USPS things getting returned for no reason!😵 😁🤞

Definitely a fluke on my end.
Vasily has had a number of shipments lately that have had no issue.
I’ll never know what caused the PO to react to a “Custom Intercept” order.
I do know that the package cleared Customs with no issue.
Spoke with an agent who made it clear that there was nothing wrong with the package on their end.
Was baffled why the PO would say they (Customs) initiated the return.
Best case scenario is that the package eventually makes its way back to Vasily.
At that point we’ll try again!

Excellent news!
Hopefully all goes well and you get it Thursday!
If I had to guess I'd say my order hopefully will arrive sometime in June. 🤞😊

My wheel and air bag cover arrived today. Shipped on 4/25 and was only in transit 17 days. Bad news is I leave on vacation tomorrow so am at least another week out from installing. I plan on starting a new thread once installed so others can see you can get either a flat bottom or a round one. Mine was his first round steering wheel request and it looks awesome.

Mine went to Turkey and then US. Your next update should be transportation US and then a delay until it reaches the states. Mine came to NY. Hope all goes well.

I started a new thread on my wheel after I installed it last night. There is an option now from RFE for a round wheel. Mine was the first.

What always impresses me about Vasily is his willingness to listen to the customer and create custom pieces when possible.
Killing me that the last work done for me was returned by the post office.
Really hoping the pieces find their way back to him so he can send them to me again.

mine was a few weeks. Customs can be your friend or an absolute nightmare. Mine breezed right through. Also don't forget that dealing with usps in any capacity is a tremendous gamble. Don't forget to post pics when it arrives

I appreciate the info!
I've already talked to my local postal carrier that does my route and gave her the number so she can be on the lookout when it gets to my post office.
My town is pretty small so hopefully it will make it through here okay but I have in the past had items make it all the way to my town and then get returned for no reason... ☹️😬
When it arrives I'll definitely take some pictures and post it up!
