Too bad about poor service from your dealer, but there are many dealers in the U.S. which makes me wonder which dealers have the best stock. When Rocky Mountain Boat Works was still in existence I had all my orders filled quickly. Now that they are defunct I have used Sidsports in Salt Lake City and the orders have been completed quickly. The last order was for tiller connection kits. It would be interesting to know which dealers have the largest stocks on hand. I don't care which part of the country the parts are shipped from. You could ask the dealer if your item is in stock and if not, order from another.
