Stupid Mistake - White Dog_imp - 12-21-2015
Knowing when I purchased the SW Motech bars, they would be too large in diameter for my 1" Kury clamps. So, off I go to eBay and found a deal at $20.46 with free shipping for 1 1/8" clamps. I even made some slims and had them in place waiting on the clamps to arrive. Well, my package came today (finally) and there was just one clamp. I called the vendor to see where the other one was and was told "They only come as one per package." DUH! I should have paid closer attention to the wording of the ebay ad. The lady in control offered me a discount on the 2nd clamp and said she would have it shipped UPS from a distributor's warehouse and I would probably have it by Thursday. Of course, the promised tracking number has not arrived yet, naturally. By the time I hung up she was probably saying "Roger Who?"

Still a reasonable price imo

The caveat is the vendor sat on the order, the USPS in FL dragged their feet, the USPS in NC dragged their feet and I was pretty stressed out. Ordered on Dec. 9, payment hit my bank on Dec. 10, vendor didn't ship until Dec. 14. I get the package today, Dec. 21. Then, to get a package with just one clamp, that really upset me. BTW, there are numerous other vendors selling these clamps in the upper teens but charge obscene shipping costs.
