LOL What a fujking rip off. 29 bucks or something like that and are behind on a buck sticker and a buck n a half for a patch. I wonder if they'll let me keep my membership open and give me back my cash until they get there **** together. My transaction cleared the bank. I did my part.

So wait ... you are pissed off that they are behind on a sticker and a patch. But you did not join for said sticker and patch? It says someitme in the New Year which seems like within a month the way I would read it. Not sometime during 2011. More like sometime during the "New Year" holiday.
I'd say life is too short to be pissed off and cranky all the time...but
So you're worried about $2-3 worth of stuff? And as someone else said "next year" could just mean next month. Like my uncle always going "see ya next year" on Dec. 31st.
Also look at what the email said, they obviously got way more people upgrading to one of the paid memberships so I'm sure they don't have enough people (maybe even just 1 or 2) that is dealing with the stuff needing to be shipped out. If you're so worried abut getting a decal and patch then ride to where they are and pick the stuff up personally. Just think of the situation on their end.
I also highly doubt they'll refund the whole amount just for $2-3 worth of stuff. Almost sounds like you paid for a paid membership just for the decal and patch, only say that because if that wasn't the case you wouldn't even worry about when or if you get the decal or patch. If you honestly didn't pay for a paid membership just for a "free" decal and patch then don't worry about it, they'll get to you when they get to you. I don't have much patients either but only about bigger stuff or normal things, not over small things like this.
So as someone else also said, should be happy they had the decency to at least send an email and let you know. I hope you didn't sign up on the HD site for that free "1" decal because that said 4-6 weeks for a free decal and if you're this mad over an HDF decal and patch then you should be pissed at that free "1" decal from HD to.

no, they sold a membership. you got said membership. the sticker and the patch are just langniappe (a little something extra).....
relax, you'll get your stuff, eventually. and you are already using your membership, so i see no problem actually.
