When you purchase something you buy with expected shipping time...once you pass that and you arent getting any calls/responses and you unwound the only recourse(dispute with paypal) you do what you have to do.
A simple phone call/card/email/pm saying hey...I apologize for the delay but this is whats going on could and would have kept this negative feedback from spilling out into the forum. Since this vendor pushes his products in this forum why not use it as a tool to get some answers.

You think waiting for a roof cap is rough? Imagine having your Z down in Socal for three months as they do R&D.

Bet yes, I've waited months before but I guess I have better tolerance.

My tolerance is pretty bad when I am not given the service I expect....or am promised. Once you have been scammed on the internet its kinda hard to get that warm and fuzzy feeling when your order has issues and the communication isnt there.
Maybe Jim should hire a hot secretary to help him with his work if he is getting slammed.

Vendors should realize that a happy customer is great advertisement...but **** them off and its some of the worst publicity you can get...cause people always like to talk about crappy service.

Oh well... carry on. This thread will die down and people will continue to buy from Jim.

i ordered an injen ses exhaust from them on a monday. they said it would ship thursday and to call back and get tracking. i called friday and they were closed for a car show. i called monday and no answer, i was getting mad.
then i came home to a giant *** box with my exhaust in it that night and i felt bad.

Good luck man. Communication is key and it really isn't that hard (or shouldn't be if you care about your business being successful). All it takes is a quick e-mail or PM or phone call and this whole thing would have been resolved. However, I'm sure that Jim has a lot of other happy customers as well, so maybe he just needs some help maintaining his lines of business but again, that's his problem, not yours.
