Something sounds a miss to me...they ordered mine last friday and I got it today so I think someone might not be exactly telling the truth.

Good Luck,
Guy

Check your credit card statement, it was around $150 shipped for me. I think it was $125 plus shipping.

[jwardell]

It was 125 EUROs including shipping.

[Guysdaman]

That pesky exchange rate! LoL...either way from the sounds of it $150 bucks stateside is a good price.

Sorry to put a downer on this thread but i work at the plant and this arm rest doesn't look the same as the one on the prototype cars on plant i.e the top slides open not lifts, I can't post any pictures for security reasons but how do you all think this is the official one.

The one that was ordered for me at my local BMW-Mini dealer has a flip open top, just like the one pictured earlier in this thread, in fact I used the part number mentioned earlier in the thread to order from my dealer.

Has anyone receieved the armrest that they ordered from alex? (Motoringfile group buy) I would love to hear your opinion of it.

Thanks!

[plantain]

Just wondering if anyone has received their armrest from the group buy. My credit card got charged (about $150 US) and I was wondering how long you had to wait until it arrived.

[CurtP]

I still haven't recieved mine - it's been several weeks. I don't even have a MINI to mount it in anymore!

Guess I'll add it to my "for sale" list when it finally arrives - or put it up on eBay (along with everything else)!

[jwardell]

Still none received yet. Alex posted the email & phone numbers of the dealer that shipped them here. You may want to email them requesting tracking information.

[RawRats]

I emailed the dealership in Germany and got the reply below. I had asked for a tracking number, but there may have been a translation issue. ~Dana

[jwardell]

Thanks... Well Oct 1 is far off from the Sept 23 when we were told the first 18 shipped (or are you not part of that group?) but would explain the delay. If so it should be arriving any day now.

I ordered one yesterday from the dealers, he said there were none in the UK and would take 7-10 days to get it.
