Z1 Auto in NY
#341
Wow ubfortunately im another victim of this z1auto in new york. I purchased a nismo exhaust ($1,420) which he said would have to be purchased from japan and would take 6-8 weeks. So i waited patiently. After not receiving anything from him i wrote him and he told me he had a "rupture disk which was causing extreme amount of sciatica" so again i waited patiently as i am kind hearted an know things do happen. But unfortunaly now my credit card company said i waited too long to report this and cant do anything to help my case. Now i get no responds from z1... Number was change... No nothing anymore. its my hard earned money that this guy has stolen from me. I know its not as much as some of you guys have lost. If anyone could help i would be grateful. I would also be willing to post all his emails he's sent me with his lies if any of you guys would like to see. I just joined this website to be able to write to you guys and get this settled. Thank you for your time. -oscar
I'm surprised he is still getting away with this. What goes around comes around right?

I don't find it uncommon to buy online without researching a company. The real question is why is this company allowed to still be in existence. Usually the only time people go searching for a company is after they have issues to see if it's common or not. It's also possible that people had bought from them in the past (I know I had without issue) and went back to them because it went well and didn't know about the changes.

Before buying, I read all the good, bad and ugly reviews... plus, his pricing is/was higher than some of the others but I chose to buy from Adam is because his word of wisdom here. But after 2 and a half months of waiting, I pulled the plug and he refunded me instantly. Had I waited past the 90 day period, it would've been different because AMEX said after 90 days, they can not and will not do anything for me... I'll be begging for Adams mercy then.

So what do you know he actually refunded me via moneygram. Originally mentioned to me back in feb he would refund me when i told him i wasnt going to wait any more and would fine a claim on him. He then failed to send it end of last month as he said he would. But quickly did say he would send me an email at the end of the week (last week) with a tracking number showing when i would receive my money. Come monday the money was here as promised.
Wouldnt say im happy but im satisfied i finally got my money back. And im surprised as many of you guys are that i did. I really hope you guys stay on his *** every week until he gets tired of you and finally refunds you all back.

I just hope he's not selling stuff and then what ever money he gets he refunds who he could at the time instead of buying the parts/accessories that people are ordering for you know.

^^^ my lawyer managed to get a hold of him but it seems to be more of the same, nothing but excuses and delays. I will soon file a law suit in NY, I hope to recover my money but if not I want to really put pressure on him via the court system. Ideally they would shut him down but that is probably just a pipe dream.

His website is very enticing. And for those who don't know who he is and/or those true enthusiast seeking for hard to find jdm parts will take the bait because of his website. Combined with his perfect communication skill via email, give buyers no reason to suspect until after 3+ months of empty promise. This is when the "review" research begin and the nightmare starts.
Members from this forum plus many others make up a fraction of the marketshare world wide. IMO -- to stop the bleeding, take down his website... this will stop any potential leads from falling into the sandpits. People around the world shops daily and his website is very attractive with all the parts listed on there. Go see yourself if you haven't been.
GL to all who are affected by this.
