It is posted there, but it is a link here for people looking. Go figure, not all people look in the good guy/ bad guy section. That is the reason it says look there before you order. And also the story is not posted here for that same reason.

my rule of thumb is I don't buy **** off line unless I can call them and talk to them first and verify they enver have what I am ordering in stock. Usually if a number is not listed its for a reason.

I ordered my block off plates from there and they came in about a week. That was about 2 years ago. I say send them an email if unsure about them.

Of course I know him, and he is a stand up guy. If there is a problem with your order, then its probably something beyond his control. Also, if you look on the website, he has his phone number posted. Just give him a call!

ok, boys and girls just to let you know this was a heads up thread for anyone of you deciding to go this route. I was not talking bad about him nor his product.
I was just stating he was did not send me a reply back.

Well, I did get a reply from him just a few seconds ago. Here is his reply,



Chad,
Finally, I found a new supplier and I had a bunch of plates cut last Friday and today, I’ll be filling backorders this week. I really appreciate the patience, switching machine shops is a huge PITA, but this shop seems really reliable. I will go ahead and ship a S5T kit out for you.
-seth


So to those of you who sent me negative pm's well, I'm not gonna go there.
All I was trying to get at is when I buy something and pay for it I expect it to be shipped within reason and if any problems come up just a little communication goes along way! And the same thing if I sell something.

So, anyone who wants to order a set of these, I say just check with him to make sure he has all the parts you want before you buy.

Chad,

Once again, I apologize. The reason for me not responding to your email last week was that I was out of town since tuesday for a family function and returned Sunday. If you had any concerns, I am always reachable by phone

Believe me, if I could have shipped it earlier, I would have. But I had major supplier issues of which for 4 years have NEVER had any issues with. I did everything in my power to get the supplier problems resolved as timely as possible, but sometimes these things happen.

I am certainly not the type of individual to "screw around" with my fellow rx7 owners, and I always have time to answer any questions or concerns. I know I can't magically place the plates you need in your hands right now, if I could, I would. Just let me know what you would like. As a sign of good faith, I am even willing to send you a S5T kit for free if you still need it.

Call me if you have any questions.

-Seth
