Sorry, no ETA yet. I was hoping to get them this week, but doesn't look like that's going to happen. Culver hasn't even received them yet. I guess adding the extra people caused more delays than I thought.

God damn extra people! You guys who wanted it after the deadline should pay extra just for making the guys who paid up front wait.

Yeah, I got my name changed. I got so much **** from people for that stupid *** name. "ooohhh, looks like we got a BADASS here." "What, you gonna beat me up now BADASS?" Or they always put the **** in quotes...yeah I was talking to "BADASS" and he said blah blah....

Sick and tired of it, so I changed to my aim name.

Hey GotBoostd7...

Any chance Santa and his eight tiny reindeer might be dropping a little box filled with transistors and a circuit board down our chimneys this year?

Just wondering (nothin' else to do )

Thanks!,

yeah, my dog has been pretty quiet lately too......mother fockers

But anyway, I dont think your gonna get them by Christmas Len.

I feel like a total *******, cause I told you guys this and that, and youll have them now, ooopps, wait, no now....wait, I lied, youll have them now, AND I STILL DONT EVEN HAVE THEM!!!! But, I was just relaying to you what I was told...oh well, lessons learned

This is whats going down...there are some "people" or "companies" out there that are pissed off about this group buy. There are companies (which will remain nameless) that are throwing a HUGE fit and bitching to Haltech. Saying that this killed their Haltech sales and that it totally underminds what they are trying to do and that it makes them lose money through technical support.

It is true that Haltech has a pretty strict pricing policy. It is true that the company we went with pretty much ignored the pricing policy. This is okay for him, and us, but ONLY because we said we require ZERO technical support from Culver. However, these other companies dont see it that way. They think that we are stupid putzes, and will call THEM for support, and they will give it to us at THEIR expense. You and I know this isnt the case...but it is causing problems.

I found out today that the ECU's have NOT left the warehouse in Texas yet. Haltech is thinking about denying the order that Culver put in, due to the problems it has caused among other vendors. I yelled, I screamed, I stomped my feet on the ******* ground.

One of two things is going to happen.

#1 you WILL get your ECU before Jan. 1st. I demanded this from Culver and Haltech.

#2 Haltech decides not to fill the order, and you get a 100% refund immediately. For those of you who payed $1030 by PayPal, you will even get back the $30 PayPal surcharge, out of my own pocket.

Sorry this has to go down like this, but hey...**** happens.

We will know for sure tomorrow what is going on.

Unhappy That sucks a big one!!!!

Well Gotboosted7....You tried. Thanx for everything..but I still hope we get this deal. If not owell, I'll have to pay full price which stinks but what can I do. .....How the hell are these companies finding out all this anyway. Are they scrounging through the net and forums looking out for group buys ...WTF?? Oh ..by the way Gotboosted, are you getting in on the scoot hood group buy? Have you seen any pics? Just wondering.....Well anyways Im just going to cross my fingers and pray for my little Haltec>

Well, they know about it because when I started this thing I contacted EVERY single Haltech distributor in the US looking for the best deal. And, after XX company said no, you cant do group buys, and Haltech emailed me saying "you know sonny, we have a strict pricing policy and dont really appreciate you trying to get our dealers to cut each others throats......"

I'm probably not going to buy in for the hood...I want the FEED Type II front end....

Even though I do like the Haltech they are money hungry ******** acting like they are going to loose out or something. Acting like they don't make enough money already. I do still hope this goes through but if it doesnt im going to call them personally and tell them exactly how I feel, well thanks for all your effort you put towards this and hopefully we can figure something out.

PS: if its not too much to ask, i would prefer a check or money order instead of the paypal. If not dont worry about it.

Thanks again,
Brian

Yeah, if the need arises for me to send you a refund, I'll send cashiers checks.

And I might need your guy's help with this. I'll let you know tomorrow, maybe some of you can make a phone call to MR. HALTECH.

Personally, if this doesnt go through, I am going to encourage all of you to not buy a Haltech. The new TECIII, while a little more $$$ is a better ECU. That and Im really pissed at these **** nuts.
