wow. First off, I would like to apologize to each and every one of you who hasn't been taken care of by Ramy.

I am going to attempt to clear this issue up. In order to do that, can I please have a list of names of people who have paid, but not received their key yet. This also goes for people who got less than what they paid for.

Thanks in advance.

paid for 1 black key, nothing special, not even cut. I paid in full in June or July of 08.

the powers that be may also want to move the part from post 276 at least to a new thread that ramy doesn't have control of as he has deleted posts in the past.

Hey guys

Sorry I've had trouble logging in for quite a while now. Not sure what the prob was. I suspect it was a billing issue I was dealing w/ with someone over & IB (the site owners), and the person I was talking to up & disappeared (phone #, extension, and email is gone from their directory). So I'm still sorting that out (Robb M., I'd appreciate some help in that aspect). The good news is, I'm able to log in and post now...so hopefully it'll last.

1. For those who had issues w/ their keys...I want to assure ya that the keys were VIN Cut BY MAZDA. And it seems like only 1 or 2 ppl had a prob w/ their VIN-cut keys. The only scenarios that I can imagine are:
- A) The VIN you supplied was wrong
- B) The VIN you supplied is right, BUT the lock cylinders on your car have been changed at some point (possibly prior to your ownership)
- C) The VIN you supplied is right, the lock cylinder matches, but the cylinder + your original key have had enough wear & tear that the new VIN-cut key needs to be filed down some to work properly.

If none of those are the cases, I'd be really surprised, as I've VIN cut DOZENS of keys in this and the previous GB w/o any problems (except the above mentioned ones) - but we'll need to figure this out either way. So check the 3 issues above plz, and let me know, and we'll get this taken care of immediately.

For those still awaiting their keys...

- FD3S2005, yours went out a WHILE back. I'm not sure what happened; they went out w/ the rest of the VIN cut keys. Everyone received 'em except you. Lemme see if I can get a tracking # on it.

- KKMpunkrock2011, I thought we had reached an agreement re: the iTrader thingy. Did you ever get to the bottom of that? Cuz no change was made on my end.

- Joe Castro, I never received the balance of your payment, so I'm still holding onto your keys

- smblue1985, emailed you back.

Anyone else have any issues that need to be taken care of? Lets get this done & over w/ ASAP.

Thanks,
~Ramy

Hey Ramy, I'd love to help you get things sorted out, and also to help our members get their keys & parts

What can I do?

Ramy,

The VIN I provided is correct, I don't see how it could be wear and tear since the top part of the new key is very different than my original. I guess it could be the lock cylinders (I have no way of really knowing the complete history of the car over multiple owners). If you have any more red keys can I just pay for a new blank one? I'm not asking for a handout or freebie.
