Has anyone ordered from them?  I ordered some cables on the 24th and it doesn't even look like they've processed the order yet.

That doesn't surprise me, seeing as it was a holiday weekend. I'd give it another couple of days before getting paranoid.   ;)

Yeah, except that they say most of their business is done in Taiwan and it wasn't a holiday there.  Anyway, just figured I'd ask.  This waiting to install my AVGA is killing me.

Update:  I finally called them today when my order status never changed.  After the operator checked with 'the warehouse' about 45 times she says they are out of stock (thanks for telling me) and tried to sell me 'a generic equivalent' that turned out to be nonequivalent since it has 5 BNC and I need 4.  A bit of wrestling later and she said they can 'special order' the cables if I can wait until next week for them.  Seeing as how they already have my money I figured I didn't have much more to lose.  If I don't have the cables in hand by the end of 30 days I'm going to do a Paypal chargeback on them.   :(

Costs twice as much, but the difference could be worth less hassle.
