Default Upset with an S2KI vendor

I'm not looking to bad mouth anyone, but hopfully this might stir them up to take some action.

Here's the story.... In early March Final Level Garage was having a group buy for Magnaflow exhausts. Well since there were no pictures up and no one had the exhaust to vouch for it there was little interest. So I made a deal with them that for a reduced cost i would be the "test mule" for it, I would take pictures and such when i recieved it. Well I paypaled them the money on March 13th, they told me it would be 2-3 weeks before it was done (which was fine i figured it would be longer). Well 2 weeks went by, then three, then four....so i PMed them asking the deal, they said that it was almost done, again no problem. Well a week or two went by and nothing. Again I messeged them, they said it had been shipped. Again nothing. Another couple of weeks went by and i again asked them what was going on, they said i would have it by the end of the week (this was on May 8th). Well that Friday came (May 12th) and still no exhaust, So i talked to them again and they said they had no problem refunding my money and they would drive up to Magnaflows headquarters and see what the deal was that day, so i held off on the refund and waited to hear from them. That takes me to this Tuesday (the 16th) after not hearing anything from them i decided that i want my money back so I PM'ed them with the request. Nothing. Pm'ed them yesterday (and IM'ed them), nothing yet. I just want my money back so i can make another pruchuse, and I'm tired of being dicked around.

So If you read this please PM asap so we can get this settled.

That sucks. I remember seeing that GB as well as your post offering to be the "test mule".

From what you're saying it sounds like they have been pretty decent with responding to your PM's/emails along the way so maybe they're having a busy week and/or out of the office. Hopefully it is just a screw-up between them and Magnaflow and you will get your money back.

Good luck.

3 months is more then enough time to make it right. If I were you I would file a complain with Paypal and get your money back.

Final Level Garage is Fillmatic in the San Diego Forum, go there and ask him what's up. He has a few open threads.

Phil is a nice guy, must be something wrong on magnaflow's end...

but I agree, 3 mos is wayy too long to wait ..

I wish i could go and find out whats going on...but I'm in Jersey so it's not so easy.

That's the weird thing, he seemed like such a nice guy throughout the process. I'm a really patient person as long as i know whats going on. I'll try PMing him one more time see if i can get a response, if not I'm gonna have to go through the BS of a paypal dispute.

So if anyone knows him personally could you let him know about this thread, i just want to get this settled and go on my way.

If it's been three months since you paid thru paypal, it's too late to file a dispute.
