Is it me , or does it seem like everybody in this freaking rotary world , is some scam artist , taking youre money and giving you **** , or somcases worse , nothing.........its been more or less a year that i havent driven my car , i am fed up and i even want to sell it , ive poured all this money into this thing ,just to get fucked over and over again by these people .....this is why i think the rotary comunity will never be at the level of other cars , because of these "people",.......funny thing i have my own shop (small) , i order parts for every kind of car ......no problem , but as soon as it comes to rotary you get this cloack and dagger **** , why is it always like this , i love rotarys to death .....to me its the most unique engine out ther with amazing potential .....but it will never amout to anything because of people like this ......sometimes i even dont want anything to do with rotarys because of this ....sorry about all this ...but i had to vent it out .........btw , anyone interested in buying my car ????...let me know .....there should be some previous posts with pictures on here somewhere

I would contact evilaviator or red-rx7 and ask them. I think we should have some kind of buyer/seller feedback forurm limited to only the people that do transactions. It would be a good idea as long as other people not involved with the transaction didn't clutter up the posts.

i don't see anything wrong with naming names, i always name names with positive feedback, and i'd DEFINITELY do it with negative. people who screw people over need to be removed from the community. . .the only way to do that is to let people know that they screw people over.

atkins rotary, for instance, sent my friend the wrong motor, and then a blown motor, and then refused a refund. while many have had success with them, i personally would never deal with them.

people i KNOW are trustworthy, eric japan engine (sent my front clip EXACTLY as negotiated and quickly) and RotaryRx, Inc. (www.rotaryrx.com building my car and many others, Tom is not only a FANTASTIC builder, but a good friend now, i HIGHLY reccomend him, he does it for the love, not the money, he sold me my turbo II for exactly what he got it for...DIRT CHEAP)

You can name names if you like, there isn't anything wrong with it. Yet, we do have a section of the forum for buyer/seller feedback. It would be advised to post the stuff in there. The idea is maybe you can save someone else the same trouble you have gone through.

Let me tell you this though, I know how you feel. My whole deal with my car was unbelievable. It started by the thief in Texas, Tito @ Alamo Rotary. Once I lost a few thousand there, I then further lost MULTIPLE thousands with the Acosta business split. To this day, I have never recovered any of that. I believe the Acostas were sincere and appologetic for what occured, but the end damage was huge. I stuck with them, and we got the project done. But, I do feel your pain.

I will go ahead and close this thread, and encourage you to open a new one sharing your experiences with those vendors. Often times, that public information drives people / companies to take action to resolve your issues. This forum gets a lot of traffic, and if you state your situation clearly, it will discourage people from using their business.

Good luck.
