I finally purchased a set of Perlick faucets and shanks for my kegerator...and with breath bated I've been watching them as they cross the country via UPS. I get home Friday and wave a passing greeting to my family and bolt to the brown package waiting for me on the table -- my priorities clearly in order.

I tear into the package with the zeal of a child...carefully unwrapping the weighty delights inside...Only to discover that I had been sent the cheap, basic faucets.

The heavens echoed with my despair; outside for many miles, birds took wing to flee the shutter of my wails.

Their office is closed until 10:00 PST...or 1:00PM here.

And the clock slouches forward at a mocking crawl...

:(

Beautiful. Nothing better than the beer-fueled poetry of the homebrewer. I weep with you.
 
I feel your pain. I ordered a refractometer online and just this morning was wondering, "Where the H3LL is that thing??"

Got an email from the company this morning stating that they shipped and sorry for the delay, but he is a one man operation and he was busy with his sick kid.

But the good news: It's going to be here today!! I was just about to hunt him down.
 
Naw. I got mine from some ebay store.

Still was not there when I went home for lunch. Mail comes just before I get home, so crossing fingers!
 
And my pain is lessened...

I called (beveragefactory.com) and spoke to customer service. They are expressing the correct faucets to me so I should have them in three days.

They told me to keep the other faucets. :rockin:

So now I have two perlicks on the way and two standard faucet shank combos to play with...

The brain...it starts to scheme...;)
