VIP Status Wheels Issue #2 or more
I just filed a case with my bank today. They will be returning my money tomorrow and having the case closed within 90 days
. I didn't even bother to give Rick the heads up, I figure he constantly ignores me and fail's to answer any questions truthfully. It's only fair he gets the same treatment. Luckily for him though this will only go on for 90 days if that. I've been going through this for 7 months. Most others obviously longer. I don't really see it taking the full 90 though.

My wheels will be coming out of a shop nearby dallas. They sealed and rebarrelled the wheels that were not holding pressure. Anyways, it took 3weeks...LOL kid you not. But yeah, bill was sent to Rick.
Glad some of you guys are taking legal action. I wouldnt have waited half as long as you guys. Kudos to you. As i read this thread i just think its ridiculous this guy is out there with your money and you have no idea/clue what hes doing or doing with it. The ones taking legal action..Clown this sucka.
Oh and no more sob stories from rick's side, theres no excuse for this. Business is business.

Albert, did Rick take care of the other side of the deal? Damn, I have Vip status on my fb and it doesn't seem like they are hurting. They still have a grip load of porsches/bimmers/bentleys/benzos lined up in their bays getting worked on or getting new wheels.. HMMM...
It really pains me to read threads like this. You guys just wanna enjoy your cars and the parts that you spent hard earned money on. Please don't flame me for saying this, I don't mean to sound offensive or rude in any way but this is the MAIN reason I went with a knock off brand. I was enjoying my rims a week after I paid for them. I've driven across country with them and used them on the track numerous times so I can't wrap my mind around how the quality and price are worth all the hassle you guys are going through. Props to you guys for having the patience and money to put up with this bs for CRAZY amounts of time but to me, it's about enjoying the car, not the status your parts give you. I wish you and anyone else having issues with this vendor (or any vendor for that matter) the best of luck, and I hope that you all have better experiences in the future! 
Not all vendors are like VIP Status...RAvspec and some other vendors actually know how to run a business and get the wheels out to their customers as promised...
And do us all a favor and get off your high horse and admit that the real reason you are running knock offs is that you can't afford the real thing. No shame in that; I rank knocks off initially until I could afford the real thing...

Well you may have got me there. Between deployments and trying to put myself through college one night class at a time, I don't have a whole lot of time to think about "The reason why I don't waste my money on name brand anything". I'm glad you guys can justify spending thousands of dollars, and years of your lives waiting for rims for your car so people know how "baller" you are. Trust me, I'll make sure not to park any where near your car at any Nissan meet, ever. Wouldn't want another Z enthusiast to depreciate the value of your car any more than I absolutely have to.
Thanks, we're all grateful

What happened to this guy? Where are you guy's orders? Anyone in their right mind would never order from VIP Status/Status Autoworks for their shizzle... the other site locked the thread.. pretty sad if you ask me and pretty shady.
