Hey guys - Vasily has just added a “ready to ship” section to his website.
Definitely will cut down on the overall transaction time!

Unfortunately that probably means he has too much time (too few orders) on his hands ...

Vasily does great work!! Anybody who needs something should jump on this.

Vasily mailed mine item via Russian Post which passed them to the US Post Office and it arrived with no issues. Even had a tracking number ...

Do you recall how long it took to arrive? Looks like my order was shipped mid February so it's been in transit for over a month.
Is this normal? It's just a gear shift cover plate so probably a very small package.
Thanks,
Mark

Same boat, mine have been in transit since mid Feb, but this is exactly what he said would happen. I haven't read a review where someone didn't receive what they ordered, so we just have to be patient. I sent him my steering wheel controls and he warned me it would be 3 months due to customs, which I was fine with. As long as our parts are not a settlement for some basketball player, I'm sure we will see them fairly soon.

Have you been tracking it?
Given it’s been a month, I would expect it at any time now.

Thanks guys.
Yes, I've been tracking but no activity since 2/28 where it states, "your package is being cleared through customs" in Russia.
I'll keep waiting.

I've had items from RFE show up in 2 weeks & others take over a month. All dependent on our postal system.

The postal system also has garbage tracking. Mine showed it was at Customs in New York the day they attempted to deliver it to me. I wasn't home and had to go to the post office the following day to get it.

I am not a crypto person but want to order a cap for my wheel and shifter, is it an easy process buying through them with crypto for someone who is clueless with this stuff?

Update on my order from Vasily.
it arrived in the US on 3/31.
It’s now at USORDA.
According to Google, USORDA is the sorting/customs clearance center in Chicago.
Odd that it came in JFK and then went to Chicago.
Good thing though is that its made it to our shores.
Regarding the pieces….still not sure if it’s just the bezel that separates from the passenger side AC vent or the bezel and the vent housing that gets replaced.
Seems simpler to just pop of the existing bezel and snap on the new one.
Thing is I don’t want to damage whatever (clips?) keeps the bezel attached.

Thanks for the update. For reference, when did it ship out?
