On March 27, I ordered a 3" x 8" Zulu Grey hone making the payment using PayPal. The web site indicated that there were aseveral hones of this size "in stock".

PayPal immediately charged the funds to my credit card.

Tomorrow it will be two weeks since I placed my order. When checking the order status on the ZuluGrey website, it says that the order is still "PROCESSING". I understand that shipping from South Africa to the USA can take a long time, but I have never heard of taking two week or more to ship an "in stock" item..

For those of you who have purchased ZG hones directly from the vendor, what has your experience been?

Unless the product ships soon, I would recommend that other SRP members refrain from doing business with ZulyGrey. If shipment is delayed due to unusual circumstances, that delay should be communicated either by email or on the vendor's web site.
