Recently won a 'buy it now' auction for a Takegawa super clutch from PowerSports Store. A week later, I email them asking for a shipping update, only to find out that they don't actually have the item in stock.

I'm not really one to complain about vendors and I don't mind waiting a little while to receive my items. But this particular practice of auctioning 'phantom' items that are not actually in stock irks me to no end. If it's not in stock, I want to know it beforehand so I can plan accordingly or shop elsewhere. Don't just take my money (in this case, a lot of money) and end communication.

Should have bought from MiniMobRacing, who seem to stock everything they sell. And if they have low stock, the website tells you so.

Total delivery time was 10 days. I expected it to take longer since the item was not in stock. Would buy from them again, but would definitely check stock before placing my bid.
