Current repeat EUC times

[Michael]

I was wondering what other regular buyers were seeing on their EUC time. I bought my 4th truck this year. I sent the paper work in 4 weeks ago. It went to battle creek 3 weeks ago. That is 15 business days. My first three took about 10 business days. I noticed someone got theirs in 7 in April.

They are back logged. It took my first one about 8 weeks before it was approved.

 

[Michael]

It is now up to 5 weeks and still no EUC. I just got through with a live chat that didn't help at all. Here is part of it:

Michael: I am a regular B/Q buyer. This is my 4th truck this year. They usually take 2 weeks to clear. This one is going on 5 weeks.

Brittney: I'm am unsure of why the approval is taking longer but there are no problems with it

Michael: How long am I expected to wait and what is the procedure to check with Battle Creek if it never clears?

Brittney: they can take anywhere from 30-45 business days to process EUC

Brittney: Your EUC will be cleared it is just taking longer this time

Brittney: Is there anything else I could help you with today?

Any of you other regular B/Q buyers ever have an occasional one take this long?

Put it this way-I won my truck on 2/20 and the EUC wasn't approved and collected to the 6th of May!

 

[Michael]

The first one always takes a long time.

 

[Pinkie]

My resent EUC got looked at in about 4 days.

 

[CGarbee]

I am running aprox. one week to clear these days for EUC...

 

[Michael]

While I am not a dealer, I have been buying surplus for 20 years. I generally buy one B/Q item about 4 times a year. The only time I have had to wait this long is the first time and the time they made everyone re qualify. I am convinced that if I ever do hear back it will be that it has been denied or needs revision. GL keeps saying everything is fine and it will go through eventually.

So far its been 80 days and still waiting for my first EUC to clear

 

[Michael]

Mine still hasn't gone through. I went back and double checked it and it is just like the three before it. I sent one in Friday for something that had changed from A to Q. Maybe that will move it on through.

Doesn't seem to make any sense right now. I sent in 2 EUC's at the same time about 5 weeks ago. I had 1 EUC clear three weeks ago and still waiting on the 2nd one. 4 weeks ago I sent 2 EUC's in and they cleared in 2 weeks.

Who knows?

 

[Michael]

I hope you weren't planning to drive a long ways and pick both up at the same time to save fuel.

 

[FMJ]

Mine are taking about 10-12 business days.....I just sent another in today, We'll see.........

No, one was for a trailer (cleared), and the other for a couple pieces of commercially available at the electronics dealer test equipment (not cleared).

Makes no sense.

 

[Michael]

You must be close to the base. The closest one to me is 100 miles. I sure would have hated to have to have made two trips when I would have assumed that they closed close enough together to get them in one.

It always takes 12-13 business days for mine...like clock work.

My EUC just went through today. Submission pending 4-10-08, EUC sent to Battle Creek, 04/17/2008, invoice dated 6-9-08. And remember, this is my 4th truck this year not my first EUC. Anybody know when they went to Smyma, TN last.

 

[HeadWizard]

Bruce-

Yours go like clock work because you are a rock star at GL. With the list of stuff you have / bought from GL they're probably going to print you GL business cards soon

 

[BKubu]

There are guys who buy less stuff than me that get their EUCs approved more rapidly. By the way, I meant to say it takes 12-13 calendar days, not business days. I keep saying, "OK, this is the last truck that I am going to buy from GL...but I can't look away."
