This is true. Times like this will lead your stress level to go through the roof. I'd again like to Thank Craig at TunerToys for handling all of my retail sales. I may not be doing oil lines without Craig to help me get through this kind of situation that Zerodaze has explained. ;)

Yeah it took me a few months to get some flanges i needed made, but considering the quality of the flanges, low price, and that nobody else even makes them (that i know of) for my a20 accord... Im not gonna complain at all

I got my flanges within 5 days, and I'm just about on the other side of the planet.

I've been waiting on my summit order for over 2 months now. Everyone fucks up now and again... You have your ----. It's in good order. You know you were dealing with a small shop.
It sucks...but it happens.

Time to move on, and not ---- up someone's livelyhood for nothing.

I think I waited 2 weeks. He's ok. He does this ---- on the side and it has become a bigger buisness than I think he has expected. Cut him some slack. I have never heard him screw anybody over. They have always got their mainfolds.

I never got my e-mail returned from bmc, he's really busy and it's too bad he can't help everyone.

ahahaha... BMC. I remnember when he first started out here, he was getting pounded because the first thing he did was put up a for sale thread :P

But as time went on, people loved him. He checked the site/his thread regularly and answered peoples questions and all was well in the forum. I was thinking about ordering stuff from him since people spoke so highly of his products and service.

But now, I don't know if I could :-\ He's never on the site anymore and there is a new thread evry week asking where he is since he doesn't respond to emails. :-\ I think that's where he went wrong, making a simple 'order page' and not having any involvement in the site, just strictly e-mail.

Don't get me wrong, I still think his products are fantastic, I would still like to buy from him, but I don't know when I would. What really sucks is his fancy adapter plates look kick ass.

The only thing I would ask of him is to weld better. I think that i might grind all his weld off and have them rewelded with a tig. It would look like a shitbird mani.
