There was a large mixup with the seats,
Althou there was no issues in the long run, they had to be sent out personally by myself on the 1st of june 2007.

Everyone will recieve there seats, I wont have anymore as the seller from yahoo auctions can't do them at such a cheap price anymore. I am just keeping the last pair for myself.

Thank you, appologiez

DOOK · 06-03-2007, 08:39 AM

you may wanna email or pm EACH BUYER individually with any tracking information you can give them as I have seen several people worried about their Brides.

That was already done champ.
Scanned copy's actually, with tracking and all stamps and signatures to have no issues going past customs.

This was just a thread to clear things up for all other people in the states, and makes the place allot safer to trade seeing as thou everyone can view the status.

Thank you for your time, lots of appologies.

BTW it was supposedly air shipped June 1st. any idea how long til it is in NY?

Teambadrun · 06-03-2007, 11:53 AM

Id say ~10th

speedgod^s13 · 06-04-2007, 05:52 PM

The tracking number you gave me, doesn't work. It does not exist in the Australian EMS database. Any explanation why?

mr_240sx · 06-04-2007, 05:57 PM

well i got a tracking number and the actually picture of the shipping bill with the correct shipping address and the tracking somewhat works i think. it comes up but doesnt have any info in there though.

btw here is my tracking number...... use http://ice.auspost.com.au/

"CP105369909Au"

now you guys be the judge.... does it actually work? its been like this since june 1st.

speedgod^s13 · 06-04-2007, 07:36 PM

Well, I checked your tracking number on Australia's EMS website, and no record of it either. Let's see how Alex, explains this one.

Teambadrun · 06-07-2007, 12:14 PM

Anyone get something, it has on record
CP105369909AU

That item was recieved safely.

***FaLKoN240*** · 06-04-2007, 07:46 PM

Same goes for my friend and I.

Teambadrun · 06-04-2007, 10:44 PM

You most likely need to wait, theres no explaninig. Let it scan, go on your countrys local postal service company's website and it should be there today/tomorrow.

speedgod^s13 · 06-04-2007, 11:14 PM

Mr.240sx, your seats arrived in L.A. at 8 something this morning. My seats arrived, at 130 something pm. Gotta check here: http://www.usps.com/shipping/trackandconfirm.htm

Maybe, there is hope after all.

***FaLKoN240*** · 06-05-2007, 12:27 AM

Awesome, so did mine. OK, everything is turning around now.

Teambadrun · 06-05-2007, 03:39 AM

Trust me, you will get what you have paid for. I will not use others to send out my things again. it's best to do things alone - This proves it

mr_240sx · 06-05-2007, 07:34 AM

wow this is great news!!!! ill be releived once i actually receive the seat though. but things are looking good!

Teambadrun · 06-06-2007, 02:20 AM

Anyone recieve something yet?

***FaLKoN240*** · 06-06-2007, 09:55 AM

If they were in LA Saturday, I'm expecting them this week.

oftentimes when people live close to the USA/Canada border it is much cheaper for them to get a mailing address across in the states and having things shipped there. Shipping through Canadian Customs fuckin SUCKS

mr_240sx · 06-08-2007, 09:13 AM

well it goes to a door step where i get it shipped to lol.

but i cant wait to go pick it up.....

btw has anyone else received their seats?

**ThatGuy** · 06-10-2007, 06:51 AM

I don't know what "model" your Bride is, but I just installed a Genuine BRIDE Brix in my car and there were not any zip-ties on it.

Teambadrun, if you think there aren't any knock-offs in Japan, you are either naive or stupid.

I am not claiming that your seats are knock-offs, I am merely stating that the seat I own, that is indeed genuine BRIDE, is not held together with zip-ties. It is, instead, held together with quality hognose rings.

**ThatGuy** · 06-10-2007, 07:29 AM

Just for reference...

BRIX II

ERGO II

XAX II

So which ones did you buy? Why doesn't the center panel, the signature gradiant BRIDE material, look the same on these seats? Did I miss a reclining seat model? These were the only ones I found on http://www.aspecproducts.com/ and they are an AUTHORIZED DEALER.

**Pictures courtesy of Aspec

**EDIT: I found the original post that says these are ERGO 2 (ERGO II) seats. But they look different from these http://www.tees-usa.com/ergo2.html on BRIDES own homepage. Hmmm,I wonder if they use zip-ties?

Definately is a Ergo II

**ThatGuy** · 06-10-2007, 07:48 AM

Definitely not. Look again.

The center panel doesn't even match up. The pics on BRIDES homepage show "BRIDE" twice in each color.

The seats you are selling look like a knock-off of the Ergo I being passed off as ERGO II in my opinion.

Interesting, They are definately Genuine Ergo 2's. My import S13 has the same pair of seats in it ( about 2 years old by the looks of the condition) and they are the same?

Im interested to see why these Geniune seats sold by previous owners on this forum look exactly the same as the ones i bought off yahoo and sold to speedgod^s13

&

I realy honestly, DOUBT that you can buy a copy seat .. Off a bride distributor in japan via yahoo auctions.

Im not argueing, just letting out my research for everyone to see to make the forum a safer and better place

**ThatGuy** · 06-10-2007, 08:12 AM

See the seam that goes through the middle of the gradiant panel?

The same seam is shown here. So that appears to be a genuine seat.

This is the picture that speedgod posted of the seat he received from you.

I don't see the seam. That's part of what makes me think it isn't genuine. My main factor is still the zip-ties though. I have a used BRIDE BRIX that has no zip-ties, only professional upholstery hognose rings. If someone can provide me pictures of a GENUINE Bride seat held together with zip-ties, like Logan from Aspec, then I will believe yours are real.

Teambadrun · 06-10-2007, 08:15 AM

Hey mate,

I understand what you mean now ( sorta ) but it could mean anything.

In the meantime I would like to hear from the other 2 if they have recieved there seats as i dont want to lose the seats in freight - That would suck.

EDIT: If you see. most seats will vary - even the leather ergo is slightly differnt. ?

Cheers for the help, We will wait till we hear from the owners.

Regards,
Teambadrun
