Wiper Blade replacement - Autobarn

I was reading here the PIAA blade repacements are the best. I ordered them on April 8th and still haven't gotten them. Has anyone had experience with autobarn?

I've tried to contact but no success.

The first E-mail wasn't replied to. I tried their "online" system and they only sent me an auto generated message saying my package was shipped via USPS. I sent a third E-mail a moment ago but I'll call them tomorrow due to the time difference from hawaii to the east coast.

PIAAs are the best, had them on 3 of my cars and refuse to go w/ anything else.

Ok, I bought Valeo's once from TireRack cause they were on sale...what a bunch of crap...

I have used Auto Barn several times over the years, including last year to get PIAA blades for the other cars. No issues.

Haven't tried them since the economic recession.

I ordered my my PIAA's from Auto Barn. They arrived in a timely manner, but the packaging was lousy. The inserts were unscathed but the metal strip inforcements were bent on the long wiper blade. I installed both inserts with no problem though.
BTW, the PIAA's are the goods! Silent as a church mouse and very efficient in clearing the windshield. They live up to the hype and then some.

They finally got a hold of me. It looks like a USPS error. They said my address is invalid???

But good to know about the PIAA blades. Hopefully they work well with the rain sensing wipers I installed.

I notice if the wipers don't clear the glass of water properly, it causes the wipers to go crazy.

Thanks all for the feedback.
