Mine also arrived yesterday. I guess the parts could have come from the same supplier, or maybe there genuinely was a hold-up at the post office... I know what I believe.
This was my second order with VS - the first time I thought they mistakenly upgraded the cog I paid for, although I now imagine its because they didn't have what I ordered in stock. I will not be using them a third time.

The way I see it...when an item has been shipped with a 24hr service, and it's already 5 days late...how can you say "your item will definitely be with you this week"?
In my opinion, when it's already several days late, there's a good chance it could be lost, so you can only know it will definitely arrive at a particular time if you haven't actually shipped it yet, and you know that when you actually do it will arrive in the time frame it's supposed to.
Given that it was already in the second week after they supposedly shipped it, and I was told on the monday of that week that it would definitely arrive that week...and it arrived on the last day of that week...I believe they didn't even ship it until Thursday...knowing that Royal Mail 24 would then get it to me on Friday.
Yes I'm happy to finally have my chainset, and for a good price...but I call bullshit on the shipping notifications and the excuses.
In future I'll be sticking with other sellers who can either provide tracking information, or at least accurate delivery times.
Well it took eleven days for a 24hr service, but my chainset finally arrived!
