I ordered a McCain/Palin bumper sticker and sign clear back on September 4. Other than the order acknowledgement email, there's been no word at all regarding order fulfillment until today, two weeks later.
Dear GOP Trunk customer,In the past few weeks, we have seen a large surge in orders since the nomination of the McCain-Palin ticket. We are working around the clock to fulfill the orders as quickly as possible and ask for your patience. Some items on your order may have been on backorder at the time of your transaction. Your orders will ship with all in-stock items and backordered items will follow at a later date.
We apologize for any inconvenience and, again, appreciate your patience. Thank you for your business and your support of John McCain and Sarah Palin.
Sincerely,

K-Lo mentioned this yesterday. It seems that the GOP Trunk completely misjudged the Palin Surge.
I have received the same message for an order placed on the 7th. I have not gotten anything from them yet :( I ordered 5 things from their website and I wonder if its a scam or something?? Maybe the some angry Democrats are in charge of shipping and receiving for the company lol
I think they simply underestimated the surge in orders they were going to get as a result of the Palin nomination. The site is linked from the McCain/Palin site, so I doubt it's a scam.
It is, however, sort of a commentary on the entire McCain campaign clear up to the convention.
