I'll quote a post I made about 5 days ago in the Good Guy/Bad Guy section.

 

I refunded your money because I dont have the pipes and you can order them from somewhere else and possibly get them quicker.
If your not bashing me or my business then why come on here and post about this, if this backorder is not something I can control and is not my fault? You couldnt handle this thru a PM or email? I have responded to your emails and let you know what was going on. No plausible reason to come in here and post about this when you already have the answers.

 

ok, first off. i have given jason some business here and there. he has alot to offer for an unbeatable price. i got like a JDM from lip for nothing! also those m-spec greddy intercoolers, yeah, they are cheap too! if you want things for a good price, then you are going to have to wait.

people call out ramy too. he is a good guy. parts sometimes will take a while, but that is all in the game. common sense will tell you that our cars are rare and stocking parts for a rare care creates overhead for things that typically dont sell; all this from a manufacture perspective. so rounding up these parts will take a little bit. i have owned my FD for about 3 years and have always waiting for 3 months on my goods. that is just the nature of the beast. then again, my FD is always broken, so i have all the time in the world :-)

 

whatever! nothing gained nothing lost i definately saw some true colors here The reason i brought it here is because i dont do buisness with you .You did not answer my last email from 10 days ago This forum is for gathering imformation etc. IMO you should have kept my $ and sent the pipes when they came in I posted the facts jason . the next time i need to waste 2 months of my time i will definately look you up. Remember Dayin price isnt everything

 

I bought the newer GReddy boost gauge from Jason a few months back when they were still kind of new on the market. I'll admit that I was a little frustrated at the slow turnaround time, but it was nothing compared to what I went through to get a PFC amidst the Apexera bankruptcy/restructuring. In fact, the only FAST purchases I have EVER made have been from individuals who had ONE part, posted about it, took PayPal, and dropped the box in the mail.

Everyone with a business has overhead, and people need to understand that.

I had acquaintances who owned a store and warehoused their goods so they'd ship fast. It was great for a few months, but the minute demand exhausted the supply, orders started getting canceled. Without income on fast sales, keeping the stock on hand refreshed became too difficult. I remember one of the owners telling me that the cost of keeping $500,000 worth of product on the shelves was closer to $1,000,000 when you think about the net losses on any product that doesn't sell, losses on products that sell slowly, and losses on products purchased at a higher wholesale price than was available when the item finally sold. Never mind the cost of renting the extra space, insuring it, and staffing it. They closed shop after about two years. As a business, not even the initial investment was recovered.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I've worked with Jason and rx7store.net and was ultimately pleased. I will continue to purchase from him in the future, though it will always be on parts I can afford to wait on. Of course, that's how mail-order purchases go. You're an idiot if you expect that when you click on a picture of what you want, especially if it's a particularly quality item, it will magically arrive on your doorstep in a day (or a week).

 

I really dont understand what your problem is. I just refunded your money so you could look else where and get it quicker. Maybe someone has it in stock. Once I get it I will send you an email and if you still need it then you can always send the money again. Heck I refunded you the full amount and lost 2.5% in paypal fees, just so I could listen to a few people bitch and moan. I think this thread has run its course.
