Vendor Warning: Corvetteworx

I ALWAYS charge before I ship - if you don't, how do you know the card is good? If an item is backordered (and it's not an online sale which is charged the instant the order is placed), I don't charge until the item arrives...but still before it ships.

absolutely!!! the only way to deal...but do not charge untuil you are shipping....this guy wanted to charge my credit card 6 weeks BEFORE it shipped.....

 

[firstgear]

Do you suppose that he has been reading lately?

my guess is that is what got him going....otherwise I suspect that nothing would have happened.....just like it hadn't for the past month!

I got an e-mail thursday stating it would be delivered on Friday where I could pick it up, still waiting for conformation. Hopefully I will be picking it up when we go to Toledo later today.

Well once again Scott was a no show, no call.

Unbelievable. :eyerole

 

[bossvette]

Yup he has time to post two threads on CF selling parts and a group buy of one piece C1 front ends but can't be bothered with making delivery of stuff he has been paid for.
I did post links to both this thread and the similar one on CF on both sale threads to warn others, but fear I may have to go to Ortonville (where he lives) to file charges.
I could become his worse nightmare very easily.:bash:bash

sounds like it is time to be one,craig.....

good luck!!!!

 

[bossvette]

recieved this e-mail thursday:

I'll have the top down there tomorrow.

then this was posted on CF on monday:

I sent the frame down there like i said i would.

but the frame has not arrived yet, and no response to my e-mails or phone calls asking just WHERE he sent it.

and still no top frame two and a half months after I paid for it.

Dispute the charges and call the cops!

 

[wallyknoch]

It`s about time to call the credit card co.

 

[bossvette]

Can't I paid with a check, :ugh I should be picking it up from Chas today who picked it up Friday.
What amazes me is his lack of communication, he would have saved himself a lot of bad press with a returned phone call or e-mail.

 

[JJS]

Sounds like he's in over his head, and has absolutely no sense of organization.
He probably spends most his time scrambling to figure out who ordered what, and what's where!

 

[bossvette]

Well its in the back of my Blazer; just returned from meeting Chas who picked it up for me. Looks to be in good condition with a little rust, just as it was described on Ebay.

 

[Viet Nam Vett]

WTF....?? What a Pain... Maybe He would have responded better to Courtney..??

 

[wallyknoch]

I actually prefer checks but normally I will not cash them until the product is sent or on it`s way. :cool

I'm glad that you finally got the soft top frame Craig. That has to be a load off of your mind.

Tom

Wally,

I was moving some stuff in the basement and found an old box of model cars I had tucked away. Right on top, once I unwrapped it, was the Walt's Puffer model that was part of the AMT 2 pack with the Two Thing. I rebuilt it in the '60s and painted it yellow but it's otherwise as it is supposed to be. Want to see a picture?

Sure Tom,

Do you have the Walts Puffer decal on it?

 

[Tom Bryant]

It did originally but they yellowed and started to flake off. That was when I painted the body yellow. I took this with my old camera so it isn't too sharp. My new camera will take macro but I haven't had time to really get into it yet. I must have lost the scoop or else it may be in the box someplace. I wonder if there is a way to photo etch new decals based on the original pictures.

I was probable 15 when I repainted this car yellow. I'll be 59 in a couple of weeks.


Tom

Craig,

Sorry for the off topic. Are you going to disassemble that top frame and paint it?

Tom

 

[wallyknoch]

By the way I believe this gentleman finally recieved his soft top frame so this should close. Thanks for the picture Tom,

Heres the real thing, Walts Puffer ll {me driving} against Ron Sterns in the RJS Reath Automotive Fiat

 

[Tom Bryant]

That had to be fun.
