FYI, I have sold 30 of the Titek ducts so far. No one has had an issue with it yet.

Your right and since he can control his business..all he has to do is ship the hood that he supposedly has had waiting right next to him for the last 2 months and let Seibon come and take the hood at their own convenience. That way customer can enjoy his new hood and not have to bad mouth the vendor. Make sense?

Exactly, if the hood is just sitting there... Why not ship it and do away with this mess... then he would be able to clear up his name and i would actually have to say that he manned up and took care of business... Instead he has lost tons of business trying to save a buck

We're so close to getting this finished all you had to do was wait it out 1 more day.
Jim..............you are a flat out liar. And to threaten a customer thru PM. What a joke. You are a joke and your company is a joke.
I wouldn't buy a CF hood emblem from you after reading all of you nasty remarks and BS excuses.

I would never do that and i would even give him a credit card # or put a paypal hold on the price of the new hood till he gets the defective one back... Im not being unreasonable... I would be fair about it but he obviously is not capable of this

Seibon then tells me its ok to send out a new hood.

As a matter of fact at this point i would be happy if Jim would atleast give me $150 and Ill put the rest just to get the defective hood fixed locally and save him all this trouble.... If thats not being reasonable after waiting almost 3 months, i dont know what is.

Ummmm..... Wrong answer. Of coarse there are always two or three sides to every story, but I think RotoryRocket really said it best:

I would collect the warranty from Seibon directly and the customer would have the hood ASAP (like in Feb sometime).

Does my solution put me (the vendor) at risk for a loss? It does...however based on all tangible evidence there's no reason to doubt this person's claim of defective product. Taking the risk IS CUSTOMER SERVICE. That's what it means to be CUSTOMER FRIENDLY.

In the end your reputation is far more important than a $600 hood. Even if the customer is wrong and you're later vindicated for holding out... no one will trust you. Could that possibly be worth $600?
I added the Bold to his quote.
