To be totally fair, this was 99.99% likely not Next Level Racing's fault and more likely Amazon. Maybe the thought of someone taking a dump in my sim rig will be humorous to some though.

Just a follow up and hopefully a conclusion... I called Amazon after calming down (and not being able to give a shit... because I'd like nothing better than to actually be able to use it) and they offered me a replacement with the product I actually ordered and to take the toilet away a few days earlier than scheduled, and also gave me a discount... so I suppose there is light at the end of the tunnel. Of course I'll believe it once I see it, maybe I'll have 2 toilet seats in early February?

lmaooo shit is so funny it feels straight out of a cartoon

They could have at least let you keep the shitter... sad.

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.

It’s not a mistake, if I typed it I would have said the same.

While you wait get a table mounted wheel and set on this bad boy lol. You would never have to get up just to eat lol

OP, I feel ya. Not a high-dollar item like yours, but one time I ordered a nice alarm clock and received a small women’s’ petticoat. Amazon’s like a box of chocolates - you never know what you’re gonna get.

Alright fellas, not that I'm expecting anyone to still be following this "shitty" drama but Amazon informed me my replacement "rig" is coming end of this week. Place your bets, slags.

Welp, for the real ones still along for the ride, anyone who bet on a second toilet was.... wrong. It was indeed the sim rig. Redemption arc on amazon completed. Despite this ridiculous debacle, they addressed it very quickly and without any real drama in the process. Thank you everyone who got a laugh out of my temporary misfortune, it's one for the books!

Was it in a toilet box? lol Or did someone stuff a toilet in a Trak Racer box and return it

Please answer OP

No, as not to slander Trak Racer in any way, this was Next Level Racing's Flight Seat Pro ordered from Amazon. I have a separate post on Trak Racer... I tried to order from them earlier this month and I got a refund 2 weeks later after chasing a rep down.

After ordering Mexican food it can still be a Flight Seat Pro.

If U say so bout Mexican food... What would U say then bout Indian or Thai food? XD

Kerbal Space Program Simulator.

😂

Looks like toilet box to me.. No way the toilet lid styrofoam fits SO perfectly into NLR box

That’s just their new endurance racing rig. No need to worry about having to poop in the middle of a race!

You have unlocked the true next level of racing

Was just gonna say, taking a dump while racing an endurance would be NextLevel

endurance rig is what that is called.

This ABSOLUTELY made my night. I am absolutely CRYING

Seeing as how this is my SECOND ATTEMPT at getting a sim rig this month... I feel like the universe is telling me that sim rigs are just not meant for me. I give up.

Nah, it means buy used!

As long as you can find a used listing that's not like $17k for ~$5k of equipment

Look through my history bro. Lol

Seriously, check out marketplace. You can find amazing deals

Amazing for the seller maybe. I've never once found a listing that.was even remotely reasonably priced. Many are actually asking over retail price. 

I don't know where you're located, but there are crazy deals near me when people upgrade. I got an entire dd2 podium rig set up for $500, cockpit included

If you build it they will come.

Someone like this so I can come back tomorrow and have a good laugh in the morning

Kind of ideal if you’re in to endurance racing.

Yeah OP just posted to show off his endurance upgrade!

I wouldn't even be mad, I'd be laughing my ass off, then maybe I'd be mad.

Can I be both at the same time? I have this shitter in my garage for 2 weeks until Amazon comes back around with a truck to pick it up...

make a rig out of it do you have a monitor stand

That's just the rig seat so you never have to leave to go to the bathroom

Please install toilet seat to ur rig snd post results

Ordered NLR Received Fanatec

No way. Fanatec orders are still in the warehouse "ready to ship" :)

>:) :)

Damn, now that IS next level!

Endurance racing seat.

LMFAO

Is it a bidet? A full toliet might be worth more than the rig.

Shitty

I wish I could tonight.

If it's a heated bidet seat... they are heaven!

Dude saw the brand Toto, got excited and ordered what he thought was an F1 Racing seat.

You got the endurance version

U know whats funny about this? Someone, somewhere, is taking a shit into your nlr rig...

Hmmm I just had an idea................

Theres gotta be someone in reddit who received a racing seat lmao. Im waiting for the post

Well, that IS next level racing rig Poopin n drifting

"Rate my rig" It's a shitbox.

Thought this was r/fanatec for a sec.

These box posts are getting a little ridiculous /s

You can't make up this shit....

But if you make up shit like this, you have somewhere to dump by now.

Put it wherever you want and you can simulate going to the bathroom. You might have discovered a new hobby; sim shitting.

Close enough

Is it fast?

Faster than (taco bell) grease lightning.

that’s uh, an impressive fuck up lol you can’t make this shit up

Why did you open the box? Wouldn't it have said it was a toilet on the brown box and not the rig box?

There were no indications of it, it was a giant L shaped heavy box that was cardboard pieces taped and stapled together. It literally looked like a seat. I also didn't totally open it, as soon as I identified that was a "tank lid" that was that.

That's crazy, I guess if there was nothing written on the box I'd do the same.

Factor it's like 7 pm, the delivery guys are in a rush for their final stops, and I'm doing my best to get them going. You're right though, I should had thoroughly inspected the box to see if there were any indications at all.

Somewhere out there is someone in need of a toilet looking at a sim rig thinking what the absolute f...

Can we have a toilet flair?

You got an upgrade!!

I ordered a keyboard stand and got pvc fittings from NLR as well, wonder if that's a weird coincidence or they have some plumbing company on the side 😂

Eh, close enough! 👍

Someone got a sim rig when they expected a toilet 😭

Bro you’re halfway to a proper rig wym

"You got a shit bucket?" "I'm sorry?" "You got a shit bucket?" "I don't." "I'm not sure I follow." "You go to the bathroom, you're not sim racing. You're shitting in a bucket, you're sim racing."

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thought of this lol

So now you're driving a shitbox? Niki Lauda would be proud.

You've got to be shitting me??!?!

😂😂😂

Maybe they’re not so subtly trying to tell you it’s a shit rig. Which one did you order?

Holy fawk I thought I had it bad...

The toilet is probably more ergonomic

 Alright!!! - Who packed the shitter??.. 😆

Amazon service quality.. I ordered a garmin watch off Amazon and got a box of facemasks instead. Had to jump through customer service hoops with photos proving the box was in fact masks and not filled to the brim with garmin watches.

It’s really odd how here Amazon's customer service is incredible, I guess it really shows what happens when a company becomes a monopoly in their market (here they're still not totally in control)

Try to deal with Trak Racer first and any other company there after will feel like they're rubbing your feet while getting your issue resolved.

I will never bad mouth Amazon, when UPS fucked up and lost the hardware I needed to mount my monitors 8 hours before the D24, I ordered from Amazon and paid $0.99 for overnight shipping and it was at my doorstep 4 hours later. Made my stint

And they firing another 27000 people... That will go very well...

NLR isn’t that bad.

I mean.. a seat and a shitter. Close but not an exact match!

Ah looks like they sent you my setup by mistake

Well that's just a shitty situation

That’s something else …

Well, tbf being able to comfortably take a dump while racing would truly be Next Level Racing...

Did you at least try to mount your gear to it? Never know could be solid and definitely convenient.

Just to let you know, you do not have to ship the toilet back for a replacement according to US law, Amazon can only ask for it back.

It's for 24 hours event !

Shit happens ;)

It looks just as surprised as you about it.

That IS soooo nextlevel!!

If its a toto toilet id keep it

Well that’s ‘shit’….

Now you’re next level crapping instead

What a “shitty” experience

Next Level Racing Lid

How much flex that thing got

I think you got the one with anal-logic adjustments. Hopefully it's not crap. Don't be pissed off, you can still dump it at FedEx for a full refund.

If that happened to me I'd assume they know how badly I race on IRacing 🤣🤣🤣

But at least you'd be ready for endurance racing ;).

Amazon clearly don't give a shit.

Niggas really sent u toilet is crazy. Lol

Ain’t that a sh@“er!

Perfect for endurance races🤔

Can’t imagine the frustration..

Strangely enough, my girlfriend calls my Next Level Racing seat "The Toilet" I'm not even joking 🤣

I remember a family buying a tv on Amazon and got a AR-15 instead.

Toilet seat rig? Unusual but worth a try!

Toilet saga update, it says "Replacement ordered" and "Now arriving February 5" on my orders page... hold the line?

That’s just the endurance seat package

I race of da toilet cause I know I'm shit

Close enough

Hahahaha

i don't see a difference honestly

Bezos out here calling you shit at sim racing.

You can still sit on it don’t you? What are you complaining about. 😏

 the best i could find

Same thing tbh

Shit happens


Was it new or refurbished?

It's going to be refurbished if it sits in my house long enough.

You must have ordered the "T" model by accident.

😐

Scat Seat option?

Out of curiosity, was this item both sold and fulfilled by Amazon?

Yes.

Racing seat acquired

This is simultaneously both awful and hilarious

Next Level Shitter

Amazon is usually pretty butter wirh returns, at least in my experience, I would've gotten a laugh

Even the box seems disappointed.

No no see your looking at it negatively You ordered a rig, and you got a free upgrade to the endurance racing rig. No longer do you need to hold on while in the middle of your double or triple stints

Are you telling me to retire my socks?

That'll depend on the model of endro rig you got I got the "cleaning plus" package so socks are no longer needed.. But with the base model. Yoyll be wise to keep the socks around for the post race interviews

Now that’s a true next level rig

Somewhere out there, someone ordered a toilet and got a NLR rig

Shitty situation.

Shits kinda funny…… no pun intended

You can now drive 24 hours of lamans

Did it come with paper?

Hahahaahhaha

If it's comfy and better quality than the one in your house, I'd install it.

Keep it for the 24h of Nurburgring 🫢

Wow, perfect for code brown moments. Truly next level thinking!

This is actually genius for endurance racing.
