Has anyone ordered anything from J bugs lately. I ordered some spring plate bushings almost 2 weeks ago and haven't heard anything from them. I assume it's due to the virus. They don't realize that my car is on jacks waiting to be put back together.
Corona virus or me. Come on...priorities people.

I was going to say the same thing.

I placed an order at Jbugs on Monday and am still waiting in PA. They are fielding orders still I think - I received an email from them on Monday regarding a specific part. But maybe they are banned from going into the warehouse to box the goods?
Samba members are shipping immediately! Air Head parts also got an order out immediately. Wolfsburg West is not taking orders now.

Maybe the part you ordered is out of stock and they are waiting to get the product in so they can ship to you.

I made an order on 3/31 and FedEx got it on 4/1, and based on whay FedEx says it will be here in Florida by 4/4.
If you order online you can track the process using the confirmation email they send, or by going into your account, and clicking on the "View My Orders". |

I ordered something from them last month with standard usps. After a week they hadn't shipped it. When I asked them about it, they replied that I should have used expedited shipping (4x the cost) if I was in a hurry. I cancelled the order and in the future will stick to other vendors as much as possible.

Wise choice, I’ve mentioned this before but why if a person lived on the east coast why would they order parts from thousands of miles away when they could get same brands, cheaper shipping and personal service from the owner himself ? Yes I’ll give him this shameless plug. Located in the Midwest, a mom and pop business.
