Does this make sense?

I ordered my Sparco seat bracket, I also ordered the hardware kit with it, since it was cheap. I do remember clicking on to send it via one package. but still, how hard is it to toss a little bag of bolts and nuts and washers into the box? My big bracket came today, no bolts inside. They dont arrive till monday it seems. very odd.

depends on where you ordered from, lots of the big Ecom sites use fulfillment companies, and one whorehouse might pull one part and another might pull another.

thats what it seems like. I ordered it all directly from sparcos site, but seems the bolts are coming from PA where the bracket came from GA. After getting the bracket, I may just find someone to copy the one I got for the passenger side and save myself $135

Good luck, $135 is cheap, to pay a machine shop to cut out the pattern with a laser, including the mounting holes, bend the part in a press-brake, then prep and powder coat. I would be very impressed if you can get a shop to do that for less then $135. now if you were ordering 10000 of them, sure since most of the cost of the part is programing the laser to cut it from a blank.
