Hi All, first of all thanks for the kind words. It's my pleasure to serve this community the best way possible and supply you with more stuff as time passes
I unfortunately could not, due to heavy work load in my daytime job (actually night time as well during the last 3 weeks), reply to the forum as often as I wanted. At least I managed to ship all orders placed in a timely manner.
Yes, postal services are strange creatures, one shipment arrives within 2 days, same destination shipped to a week later takes 3 weeks to arrive... no idea why though...
I am currently setting up a new shopping cart for the store as the tax issue and not being able to display shipping prices for letter post really bugs me. On top it causes double the work sending refunds or billing items through paypal. This is one of the main reasons the parts section is still abandoned. I hope I will get the new cart running within the next two weeks and will be able to migrate the user database.
I also just got a deal with DHL Express, so in case you need items shipped quickly it will be possible once the new storefront is up. I just do not want to put any more effort into the old system. Prices are in a moderate bracket, the more this option will be used the lower the prices will get (reviewed every 3 month and adapted on amount of shipments made).
In regards to the high pitched noise, I tested all ODACs before shipping on a Win7 and a WinXP PC and none made any squeeling noise whatsoever.
The last batch though made no noise at all and went back to the manufacturer for re-work. Therefore re-stocking will take approximately 2 more weeks.
