Witty.

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

Read..... He kept avoiding the subject on tracking number or not reply at all. The only way to get in touch with Josh is on threads like this. I've asked him several times to give me a number to call him... he never gave it to me..... and he has my number but apparently could NOT spend 2 minutes on the phone to give me a tracking number. You would've done much worse if you were in my position. You just dont know what kind of BS I get from Josh...... He knows how patient and understanding I have been. I am a fair kind of guy....... This is just too much now.

Josh, you've never given me progress pics. The only pics you've ever given me were some of the pics above.... that was this Monday..... which was the finished product. Although, according to you, my customer's manifold was supposed to be shipped last Wednesday but you didnt reply to any of my PM until Friday...... So, please.... spare me that BS. I am not ging to cut and paste all the Honda-Tech IM and unreplied PM's from you on this thread. That is not my purpose. I have asked you a simple question..... tracking number........ You could have straight up told me that you do NOT have a tracking number. I would respect that more than you ignoring the subject. Now, I sure hope that my customer gets his manifold. I'm having a hard time believing your words anymore. ::)

Thermal, shut the ---- up (I can't believe I'm actually defending hotsex).

First off, are you so dense to notice that USPS doesn't offer tracking numbers, or does Josh have to tell you another 4 times?

Second off, you've been on the site long enough to know that Josh is banned from selling here for a reason. Keep this ---- off of HMT and stick to H-T and PM's.

I can speak for most people that I'm sick of hearing people's ---- with Josh.

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

. did i not tell you i was hoping for wednesday but my flange shipment did not arrive until friday.
i told you exactly what was going on. i added PREMIUM BMC PORTED FLANGES to yuor guys order as a nice gesture which cost me about 60 dollars more a set than the regualar one s i charged you for first. your really making me regret that.

usps does not offer a goddamn tracking number. i told you that monday in the original post. how many more people are gonna sit there and bitch and whine about this.

your customers manifold is on the way, its ------- sexy, and he got way more manifold than he payed for.

your telling be to stay civil which i have , yet after the fact your mans stuff is shipped, you then flip ----?? i just dont get it.

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

hahaha... that made me laugh, he's on the classifieds banned list. But it's been discussed over and over, he's a pseudo scammer, you pay for your ----, but you WILL get it, just a really really long time. :P

they offer delivery confirmation for 50 cents or something like that. Not exactly tracking, but even USPS employees call it a "tracking" number



to stay on topic, good job on advertising :D :P

i didnt forget to thank anyone i sent engloid a pm nogs.

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

First off.... you are the one who needs to shut the fuk up. I do know that USPS does not have a tracking system that UPS has, BUT hey do have one... more on the area of Delivery Confirmation but it is still a means of proving that an item was sent.... Josh could've given me that..... he chose not to and mostlikely chose not to have that option.... but you are right, you said that he is listed as a scammer, so I shouldnt be suprised that is his way of doing business.

Second, PM's anywhere on any site doesnt work on Josh. He doesnt even have the audacity to call me. So, back the fuk off. If somebody owes me (or my customer) some cash, I would do anything to get what was paid for or get a refund. This is HMT... where most of us poor people gather. I have just as much right to bitch about BS like this like every other member..... look up my posts.... I have never once bitched in here.

I give everybody the benefit of a doubt once. I'm an easy going guy. So, shut the fuk up yourself........

Josh, do you really want me to cut and paste our conversation. YOU NEVER TOLD ME ANYTHING ABOUT TRACKING NUMBER. You ignored that subject everytime I asked you. As it stands right now, there is no FACT that you sent the manifold out unless you give me a tracking number or USPS Delivery Confirmation number. I did not ask you to give me the BMC premium flanges and I do give you credit for it. Good customer service heavily relies on communication Josh. On days that I expect you to answer PM's, you wouldnt, yet you'd have time to create a thread elsewhere.

It's all good. I will refrain about any other comments and wait until Monday afternoon to see if my customer gets his manifold. Then I will find a way to call you.

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

your right arnel, i told tyou the manifdold was shipped usps and i didnt have a tracking number, thats what i said on monday

You sent Engloid a PM, but hand delivery of a local brew doesn't merit a response? You are a rude ass.

i was just going to reply to you. im sending you some black boss in return i felt bad. i just drank that stuff last night and it was excellent.

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

I can't really defend hotrex in this situation, since I really don't have much knowledge of it.

I would like to put in a thought though, about situations like this in general. I don't know whether hotrex is case of this or not though.

Lets say this guy named Pete. He's an AVERAGE guy in all ways. He learns to weld, gets a little better, and people start wanting him to make manifolds for them. Suddenly, it seems that his efforts are paying off. He's pumped!! He accepts the work, makes promises that he THINKS he can keep. This includes deadlines. We know that people often want something done yesterday when they're ready to buy. So, Pete, thinking he may lose a sale over a deadline, gives the customer a deadline that will be tough to meet. Pete, being new to this, isn't very good at estimating the time it will take to make the parts anyway, so he then becomes in a really fucked up bind. He's got somebody's money and they want the manifold.

So, to help appease the customer, he starts sending "in progress" pics to the customer...proving that things are moving along. The customer gets annoyed as time goes on and he's not getting the progress. Pete then, thinking it will be done in 2 days, tells the customer that he shipped it. The thought is that he can get it shipped in 2 days and then just say that the shipper took that extra 2 days to transport the item.

I think by now you guys are seeing the predicament here. It's the lure of money that makes Pete make these promises. He's got good intentions all the way though, with no plans to ever rip anybody off. He's not a thief, but he tells "white lies" to buy time.

From the outside, people that have never made a manifold don't see the difficulties involved in making a manifold. They just see welding. Welding it isn't all that bad, but when the welding warps stuff all to hell, it really makes things more difficult. If I had a pipeline in the average plant to weld in, I could do 16 welds, ---- off playing pranks on others, spend a couple hours bullshitting, and still have time left over at the end of the day. In this case, I'd spend about 15 minutes on each weld and walk away from it. Now, put those 16 welds on a manifold and you're going to spend an average of 15-20 minutes on each weld, and then twice that much time keeping things straight while you do them.

I'm not so much defending hotrex here, as I am trying to show the other side of the page to those that havn't ever made a manifold like these. I'm not trying to defend them for the "white lies," but more giving an explanation. There's a world of reasons, but that doesn't make things right. There's a difference in reasons and excuses. I think a lot of guys here don't understand the reasons for having difficulties.

Likewise, some of the sellers should slow down a bit...don't make promises that put you on such a tight schedule. Give yourself some extra time when setting a deadline. Quality work will sell all the manifolds you can make...and by doing quality work, people will be willing to allow you the time to do them right. In other words, you can get plenty of business. There's no reason to put yourself in a bind by doing work for the guys that want it done yesterday. Let somebody else do the rush jobs and deal with those hassles. If a guy wants a manifold in 2 days and you're not sure you can do it, turn them down. It's the difference in fast food or a steakhouse. If you want to work fast food, your main goal is speed. That's the main thing the customer wants. If you work in a steakhouse, the customers there are willing to wait for quality.

Let somebody else be the fast food of manifolds. Be the steak!!

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

nah, Josh offered manifolds the day he ordered his welder, and he makes promises that he never intends to keep. Ever. I think it's called worthless ------ syndrome. 8)

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

nice said engloid but why does his name have to be pete? :P

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

We can call him Chester if it makes you more comfortable. :y

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

thats better ;D

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

I'm not running out to get a manifold from Josh, but after meeting him I imagine he could at least get an oil line kit right... and not make wierd comments about peeing, his kid, and the shower. :l

Say, Steve, do you anything of a technical nature... whatsoever?

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

jd ther answer to that would be no... although he will paint your moms kitchen with a roller.

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

I don't mean to be ungrateful or anything about the free oil line kit, but after the "send my ---- back" comment... :-\

I dunno, Josh, didn't it seem a bit ignorant that the kit didn't fit? Or am I being unreasonable?

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

id say your right on target good sir.

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

Jd, way to play the fence as always.

It was a donated kit. Never had a clue what turbo was being used, so I sent a T3 kit without a block fitting cause I didn't have any. Chris said he had two anyhow. If you can't figure out how to install an oil line kit, than you shouldn't be trying to tell people you don't know about how techy they are.

Josh, I'll build anything you build, better, twice, and ship it. You're a retard. Who are you kidding? ???


When you get something donated for free to go on a given car for a given event, and then you can't finish it, it's not a situation where you just use it for something else/sell it, ect. If you can't get to where you were supposed to be with help from people who want to give you free parts, than you send them back. Even if you didn't, it wouldn't be a heartache, but the ---- if I'm gonna ask nicely.

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

steve your hands dont work, its evident.

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

Why, because I don't make a daily post trying to drum up PM business? hahaha. The only thing that works with you is your mouth, and that can't even be trusted. I can't think of anything to give you the technical credit you demand.

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

i dont need to drum up anything. like i said, sit back and enjoy steve.
i know why you like to ride me so hard, its sort of flattering

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

haha, you can't even drum up PM business these days. "Sit back and enjoy" <----open ended hotrex comments that mean absolutely nothing.

I would rather forget you existed, but you tend to open your mouth and bring the ownage onto yourself. You wish there was a flattering reason I wasted my time owning you. Lives with mommy, can't keep a car running, can't keep a girlfriend, can't keep a backyard manifold "business" above water, can't tell the truth............. What could possibly flatter you about anything? ???

::ques JD to defend hotrex so tomarrows insult won't tip him off::

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

you must be kidding, i still have kids pm me all the time looking for ----.


if youd rrather forget i exist, stop following m around the internet making yoursefl look dumb

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

As we can see with all the threads. People are really looking for the manifolds they payed for.

Here's an example of "me following you around the internet":

technical is the word you were looking for ;)

Re: put a gas lense on my torch finally. pics
 

no. I was really using techy. The word techy is more technical than using the word technical, making the tech like woah up in this bitch.
