This thread has a little bit of everything, doesn't it
The OP ordered some coilovers, they weren't in stock, he waited, then changed his order, then asked for a refund - all handled by my front office guy, because frankly, my business is not based around selling $700 coilovers. I didn't keep an eye on everything throughout the transaction and when he initiated a Paypal dispute and got a refund, I figured that was the end of it. I now have tracked everything with him and realize I owe him the initial payment back and we're getting that done through Paypal.
Rob, Aimsport still contends that the MXL Strada is compatible with GM LS2 and up PCMs, and I've had success with the GMPP PCM's as well (which show up as TBSS ECU's like yours). I know you worked with AiM on it, but without some better electrical diagnostic tools and know-how being in the same room as the car, there's not a whole lot either myself or AiM could do - I do feel like we all supported you pretty well, but if you want to take a shit on everybody over the internet, roger that.
90FC, I don't think we know each other, but your glib out-of-context comment was probably pretty cute at the time and helps stir the pot. Stuff like that encourages people like me not to post anything remotely personal here, and I really like this community, so I don't dig that.
The Bill Cosby shit was timely, but a little out of hand - I'm not raping err'body, and not out to 'scam' anyone. I don't like the drama, and don't need the couple bucks I'd end up coming away with.
Bryan, Ricardo - both placed orders for Vbox's for "then next group buy" but there wasn't another group buy, and I was already selling at cost. Can't afford to eat the drop ship fee and shipping when you're not making any money lol. I know you got your money back Bryan, and I'm sorry for the lack of comms - it looks like I still need to get Ricardo his (unless you want to pay the fee + shipping for your unit).
This leads to my final point - posting on the forum is a great way to chat with the community as a whole, but emailing me directly (all customers have my email address) is the only way I'll actually see it in a timely fashion. If you want to moan or start some wave of discontent, great, create a thread - and I understand why the OP did... but if you want the situation resolved, posting on the forum about it actually ties my hands a little bit - I have even less options to help you, since realistically you can't take anything back.
I enjoy posting here, and feel that I've really helped some of the members here push their projects forward with new products and/or good deals - and Blake is the best admin around in my book. I'm working solo down here in San Diego and will be shifting the business to more engineering work, electrical design, and consulting, along with technical sales (not interested in 'common' parts sales, unless people specifically ask for my help getting something). I hope that anyone with issues will email me about it so we can figure out what we can do, and then post up, but either way I'll be over here doing my best to keep things moving into 2015. Cheers, dudes.
