GOBI Roof Rack *Group Buy* Winter 2016

[mgnum21]

You are in luck, Gobi supplies the protective film for the roof where the wind guard hits the roof. I had some left over 3m protective film (clear bra) that I put on before I got my shipment, not realizing they supplied it now.

I'm at 19 weeks and counting now and still waiting to hear anything concrete from Gobi. They said 12-16 weeks at the beginning of this groupbuy which I was ok with but 19 weeks is ridiculous. Especially since I was In the first group that ordered. Still don't know how they decide which order gets delivered first.

Did they at least charge you?

I'm at 20.5 weeks now. They charged my card 8 days ago. Haven't heard anything from the shipping company. Who knows where that thing is at.

#151 - Have emailed and asked TD for an update several times, got a canned response and then nothing... just the same canned response each time.
Thinking about driving down for the install...how long does it take for those of you that went to Gobi?

Will a group buy like this ever happen again?

Pretty much identical to me. I finally reached out Trail Doody on Friday. They said it should be here by end of this week.

I spoke with them today. It was supposed to ship last week. Now it's either this week or next.

Apparently people had hounded them about getting theirs out faster and screwed up the GB order. I knew you could request it by a certain date, which would have been helpful on my last few trips. But I didn't think it was fair to the 140 orders ahead of me.

It just arrived!

I'm #93. FINALLY!!!

I hope a speedy delivery for everyone.

I'm number 18, it just arrived today. I think the phone calls and telling them to cancel my order motivated them.

Was told the rack was scheduled to ship last week. No confirmation call or email, and my CC was not charged. Made 3 calls over the last 3 days with no response as to status. Someone does usually pick up the phone but unfortunately it's not the person who supposedly knows where my order stands so it gets forwarded to them with no response or callback. Ugh!

Question to the fortunately ones who have received their racks. Does the shipping company usually call you to schedule a delivery? I assume someone has to sign for the thing.

Yes, someone calls you from a local delivery company to schedule a time and date for delivery.

I received no notification from TrailDuty or Gobi that my rack had shipped. I got a call from the freight company when it arrived in town and they delivered it the next day.

Got a callback yesterday. Looks like I should be receiving it next week. Sounded familiar.

For those of you that have received your racks, is Gobi including a piece of clear 3M type film to use in the front where the wind fairing goes? I want to confirm if I need to purchase some or not...
