Well Gents,
You can read the other post dealing with Vivid Racing's antics- now closed. And I screwed myself by posting too early, saying that Randy took care of the problem.
I based that update on an email that Randy sent me stating he'd refund my money. Unfortunately, they sent a check for $162- they still failed to refund the shipping costs and their dumb-assed "Handling Fee." Reference email from Randy below.

Yeah I looked on my website and saw the same thing. I will get the
credit done here for you today so we can get the check cut. Im sorry for
the confusion this has caused and I will do my best to expedite the
process of getting your money back. If you have any questions please
contact me from now on and I will help you out best I can.

So- for a mistake THEY made, they're charging me $19.
My recommendation is to STAY AWAY FROM VIVID RACING, as they'll screw you as much as possible and add bullshlt charges to your invoice after the fact without warning.
I'm going to email Randy tonight to see what he says. I'll keep you updated on my situation.
If you want further info about this, feel free to PM me.
