The reproduction market is not the same as other products. Most items are made in small runs by small companies. Occasionally stock gets depleted before another run is made and this can lead to shortages, sometimes across the industry. Sometimes it's just a small supplier that is slow to ship- all PY can do is wait... just like you.
I agree I ordered some parts last week but I have not called to see if they were in. My car isn't leaving the garage before may anyways so Im not in a rush to get them. But it is better to talk to someone to double check to see if the part is in or not. If it isn't then you could be waiting its not always py's fault. That have to wait just as much if its not a popular part that is made plus waiting on the manufacturer of the part to be shipped to py.
