If the crank was truly lost with UPS you would still have the original tracking number & a case number.
Pankake Pete has repeatedly asked you for a tracking number. No answer from you.
You could have called Speedfreak or post a response back in October.
Be honest and settle up with Speedfreak. He just wants his property back.
If you are or were in a bind, talk to him. He is more reasonable than most people around here.
This was never about bashing you, it was about doing the right thing.
speedfreak the crank was shipped over a month ago ups had lost it and i filed a claim i got a call from them two days ago saying that they had found the package and that if would be next day shipped on the 20th and gave me a new tracking #
speadfreak i emailed you that #. Also you have not called my phone in over a month.
What the !@#$ is up with this guy. I'm the dumb fool that bet on one of his Ebay auctions for a glass 24-7 hood. I talked to him on the phone twice, seemed like a very nice and accomodating guy. After aggreeing to custom match and paint the hood to factory colors for an additional $100. We settled on $850 even, all in, for a custom painted hood delivered to Tampa. That was on 4 December. It has now been a month, no hood and no contact despite repeated attempts via email and phone (apparently he doesn't answer 813 area code numbers either). I've even engaged with Chris (former 24-7 owner....and soley responsible for the high reputation 24-7 once had) for any assistance he might lend. I am at wits end, and can't even send him a PM or email via this forum, because apparently his profile restricts it.
If you do happen to read this Mark, note this entire affair has failed the reasonable person test and I have contacted my bank (USAA), which is one of the most reputable and aggressive in the business in protecting it's clients. Then I will take this up with Ebay, then the better business bureau, and finally through the states attorney if necessary. I can get all the legal help I need, and it won't cost me a thing. I am an active duty Marine and assure you that I work do #!@#$@#! hard for my money to be stiffed for $850 bucks. I promise you, I will get it back...all of it.
There is absolutely no reason for this or for any of the other numerous deals you have purportedly fouled up. You were paid fair and square, in full, within 24 hours of that auction ending.
Where is the hood you said was shipped on the 19th (a week late already mind you) via UPS...it takes 3 days from NJ? Where are the tracking numbers you promised to send?
For everybody else, do not deal with this guy! It's really too bad. Chris built an extremely solid reputation with 24-7. Many folks still contend that he made some of the best glass and carbon hoods in the business, only to have it soiled by this guy. That sucks!
BUYER BEWARE!!!
As for the rest of ya.....see you all in Daytona!!
P.S. I'll be the guy shopping for an aftermarket hood.
Hey man sorry for the problems but it seems that the Detective can straighten him out.... Or he can spend some more time in jail... I hear that his is familiar with the jail there... But I sent you the detectives number. I also have his dads phone number at work I will get that to you also. I think the guy that keeps buying him businesses so that he can run them in the ground needs to know how well he is doing.
And if you see him in Daytona he is suppose to have a ski there for people to test ride. I want to see if it floats without a hood with the throttle pinned wide open......so that will take the crank out and it looks like you can have the hood. LOL.. Might have to swim for it:27:
O BTW his user profile shows the last time he was logged on and that was today at 10AM so you know he checked the email also...
