Who is this vendor? I think that company needs to explain what's going on and bring this to resolution.
IIRC, the terms were loose and simply vocal with regards to to the payment plan. I would have paid in full during the initial payment, but I had to shift some funds around and sell some stocks, which is why the payments were separated by a month. My initial thinking was, that I was dealing with a really solid vendor and the payment plan was ancillary to getting the parts. The Vendor didn't demand payment in full, but wanting the parts as soon as possible, I opted to pay up front.

I think I'm in the right that 6 months is a little out of control. (Actually, I think it's completely out of control.) I just wanted to check and see with you guys that my expectations were on par with yours. Looking back at my build thread (@PSV), the work came to a pretty good halt in December.
