what a mission it is dealing with PVD! has any1 else found this out buy ordering stuff from them? i ordered my apex lowering springs for my corsa C 2 weeks ago and payed for nextday delivery and was told that they would be order and there would be a slight delay and they would be with me the following week! so i thought fair enough! that week came and went so i rang up and asked them where they were and then they told me that the apex factory have gone on holiday for a week?  and now they said that they will be here the end of next week hopefully!
i wanted them before ultimate street car this weekend! NO CHANCE!
has any1 else had problems ordering from PVD?
cheers

Nah - just think they get bad press but people never say when they dont have any problems like so many actually never have any problems.

If you speak to joff though he'll sort ya out!

If any1 off here lives near there then id sujest applying for a job and you can sort all corsasports orders out!

Since when can the suppliers going on holiday be blamed on PVD?
If the Apex factory have indeed gone on holiday, you'd get the same delay if you'd ordered from any other company...
They've been fine with everything I ordered from there.

Ditto the above really, I've got no complaints with their service, been very helpful everytime I've spoken to them.

All the emails going to sales@ are replied to within 1-2 working days. Send it again if you've not yet had a reply.
Apex aren't the only company to shut down for summer - most of Europe does it and apparently it's only us Brits that are stupid enough to work through it.
The majority of the Apex range is kept in stock, but popular items like the Nova and Corsa C kits are difficult to keep on the shelf - especially when the suppliers don't know when they're getting stock

Yeah, Team Dynamics are another culprit - thankfully we've got a few sets of Pro-Race 2's in stock now 
They look great on Silver 5-doors btw.
