Let's start with linear motion components, lifting solutions and heavier gauge 1x1 versa tubing.

Sleep? That brings another thought to the next vex product, buildblitz themed energy drinks.

What did it change to? It has been like this for a little while now. Unless I am seeing something totally different?

Re: VexPro 2015 Product line launch

Does anyone know if we can edit a Quote that we have already put in before ordering? For instance I recently requested a quote and, while I can still view it on the site, I can't figure out how to remove or add anything to it.
I would rather not have to recreate the entire quote if they add something that I want . . .

Not sure if this is the right solution of if you already stumbled on it, but if you log in and can view your old quotes and you click order/reorder, it will populate your shopping cart with all the items. Then you can just delete/add items to it and generate a new quote.

If generating a new quote number is a an issue for you, I'd just call the guys at Vex Sales. They have always been prompt at fixing issues like this for me.

Monochron and Steven, this is the best way to adjust a quote if you'd like to handle it through our website. Of course, our sales team is also happy to help - you can contact sales [at] vex [dot] com or 903-453-0874 with the quote # and the desired changes.

This is the first time I've had issues with VexPRO/WCP, but this is ridiculous!
Was this ordered through VEX or West Coast Products? We did a search in our system for orders placed around 12/3 shipping to Elk Grove, and there is only one order that looks like it was actually placed through WCP. It shipped on 12/10 - if this is yours and you're still curious, I can PM you a UPS tracking number.

Thanks for clarifying.

I will now join the masses hitting F5. Kidding, but it would be nice to have a rough ETA (1-2 hour window) when site update goes live (and mass chaos ensues).

Re: VexPro 2015 Product line launch

I will put a good word in for VexPro shipping.
All of the items that we have ordered this past fall have fully met the shipping expectations from the site. We ordered last week and got the materials Monday.

Looking forward to seeing what they have cooked up for this year....

What happened to the Robot Direction arrow Paul Copioli talked about at waterloo? It was so teams don't forget which end goes forward in auto. Link of the idea here.

Re: VEXpro 2015 Product line launch

The output shafts and shifting dogs for the WCP DS gearbox seem to be dead links right now. Do you still plan to sell the output shafts and shifting dogs separately?

Also, can the shorter steel shaft that fits inside the gearbox output shaft be purchased separately too?
