ok first off i log onto the web site every now and then sorry im not on here every day
1 i had to cut the exhaust where i did cause it was the best possible place to re weld i know ive done exhaust for about 10 yrs now and stainless turns brown after about a week
i did index the pipe as to be put on strait yeah the down pipe and exhaust housing LOOKS f ed up REMEMBER I JUST GAVE THAT TO YOU FOR FREE
2 the turbo i didnt try to lie or anything on that it needs to be rebuilt the housings have some scrapes but there still useable
i didnt know the extent of the rebuild thats why i sold it so cheap
i bought it from a distributor on here for 875 + shipping and 200 for the exh housing
and the thing smoked every since i took it out of the box i thought it was my brand new motor till i pulled the turbo off i called pte cause the distributor put me off everytime i called and pte said no warranty ..theres only about 50 miles on that turbo so i honestly didnt think it was totally junk
3 my reciepts say priority mail im sorry that it came standard i will have those recipts posted if you still want me to AND TO WHO EVER POSTED THAT I POCKETED A LOT OF THE 90 DOLLARS FOR SHIPPING IT ACTUALLY CAME TO 92 DOLLARS
SO YOU CAN COMPLAIN ABOUT THE EXHAUST
PART YOU GOT FOR FREE...
THE MUFFLER IS FINE THE TAIL PIPE IS IN 2 PIECES AND I DONT KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE FOR A CAT ON YOUR TRUCK SO THATS WHY TH EXH PIPE IS STILL ON THE CAT ELIMINATOR PIPE
SO THATS A TOTAL OF 4 WELDS
IM THE KIND OF GUY THAT IF YOU LIVED IN MY TOWN HERE I WOULD HAVE GAVE YOU THE STUFF FOR FREE AND PUT IT ON YOUR TRUCK FOR FREE
I DIDNT REALLY NEED THE MONEY EITHER I DO PRETTY GOOD FOR MYSELF
BESIDES YOU HAVE TO BE RICH TO OWN ONE OF THESE THINGS ANYWAYS LOL..
I WAS REALLY JUST TRYING TO HELP SOME ONE OUT
SO YOU DO WHAT YOU THINK IS RIGHT JAMES
IF YOU WANT ME TO TAKE THE STUFF BACK I WILL
SO YOU DO WHAT YOU THINK IS RIGHT JAMES
I will respond on order:
1. I don't care about color, yea anybody that works with stainless knows that. Like I said, oh maybe 10 or so times now. I don't give a flip about the flange. It's hacked so short and pieced with that standard ex. pipe with two big holes in it that I can't use it since I don't have access to a mandrel bender here (not one here, period), even it was free.
Again on the cat back, never mind the "free" cat bypass "pieces". The hangers are hacked off and stainless round stock has to be ordered since no one stocks it here. I can't just make some welds and install it like we talked about. And as far has hacking it up in so many pieces, that’s total BS on your “best fit” excuse. Because I have no local source for decent exhaust work or materials here, I have taken a quick second to think about it and have ordered and shipped in at least 40+ complete ex. systems from Dr. Gas, Hooker, FlowTec and on and on and never had that many small pieces for an exhaust, little less a cat back pipe. By the way, I guess you didn’t know that items can be up to a total of 108” for shipping?
BS FLAG ON THE 20yd. LINE FOR THAT EXCUSE :bs: .
Man.... no offence but I gotta call it the way I see it here. If you have 10 yrs. experience in the exhaust business and with a business in the family, I hope the work for your other "paying customers" is better than this. I would be down right asshamed to admit that I had 10 yrs. experience in the biz and then send out something like this ass looking hacked up thing... and then actually expect someone else to think it was ok on top of it?
My business reflects my work and my work reflects my business / how I take care of business :tup: . Think about it. Still, NO DISCLOSURE OF THE HACKED OFF HANGERS OR ACTUAL CONDITION OF THE CAT BACK... AND CONTRARY TO WHAT YOU SAID YOU WERE SENDING.... JUST LIKE THE TURBO (see #2 below). REGARDLESS OF THE "FREE" SCRAP.
2. Yea the housings are still useable, too bad the cartridge (just most expensive part, oh and 90% of the turbo as a unit I might add) is 100%, prime time, HAMMERED. If you knew it had scrapes & gouges from grinding around in the housing then why in the hell would you not mention this obvious damage that can bee seen from the outside and that you now admit you knew about.
I am starting to see a pattern here and it's not one of just being misinformed or not having access to a camera for pic's like you told me. I now see that you knew about it and didn't want to disclose accurate / complete information. Yea maybe you didn't lie, you just didn't tell the whole truth. Ha, my old man broke me of that habit when I was 5 yrs. old by wearing my ass out so bad I had to stand up for half the day. Come on Grant, were not 5 yrs. old any more :tdown: . I can read a newspaper through that a mile away!
3. I asked you for the shipping cost. I paid for the parts first (first paypal) because I was waiting for my Mastcard payment to post and told you I would follow up in a day or so after you had the total / weight etc. You PM me that $90 would cover it via Priority Insured and I sent you $95. The extra $5 was to stand in line at the Post Office or Paypal fees, which ever (I know $5 ain't a lot but I was trying to be nice cause you’re a member and all :tup: ). So how is it my fault that you made a mistake / payed for services that you didn't get or what ever? Hell at this point, you may not be "lying" I just don't know if your telling the whole truth or not :rotf: . I think you didn't actually get a correct price and when you or who ever got to the Post Office with $90 and it wasn't enough, it was just shipped however with no regard for the problems I warned you of, But hey.... it was ok cause you got the money already right? :2cents:
Soooo..... let me tell you what kind of guy I am. I would have told the whole truth and disclosed all the info, access to a camera or not, specially something like no way to mount an exhaust and visible grind marks on turbo blades & housings! When I got to the post office and discovered that I MADE A MISTAKE ON THE SHIPPING COST (if that’s really the case) I would have covered the extra to do the job RIGHT. If I was mis-quoted and it wasn't my fault I would have AT THE VERY LEAST CALLED YOU TO LET YOU KNOW AND OFFER TO SPLIT IT INSTEAD OF JUST DOING WHAT EVER TO GET RID OF IT :rant:
I am also the kind of guy that will not lay down and let the bus run over me! And I may have been born at night but it was not LAST NIGHT. I am on to your game now and I'm not stupid. I am however very honest and that’s why I told you, you can have this stuff back, just pay the shipping. I already ate mine!
As far as " IM THE KIND OF GUY THAT IF YOU LIVED IN MY TOWN HERE I WOULD HAVE GAVE YOU THE STUFF FOR FREE AND PUT IT ON YOUR TRUCK FOR FREE
I DIDNT REALLY NEED THE MONEY EITHER I DO PRETTY GOOD FOR MYSELF
BESIDES YOU HAVE TO BE RICH TO OWN ONE OF THESE THINGS ANYWAYS LOL..
I WAS REALLY JUST TRYING TO HELP SOME ONE OUT" goes?
The next time you feel the urge to help someone out like this... don't!
If the money was no big deal (I find that so hard to believe after all this BS and smear ploy you have created!) why didn't you mention all the problems / maybe problems and say something like "this stuff may be junk, maybe not. I'll send it to you and you pay the shipping then let me know if you can use it, if not I'll pay to send it back". This happens a lot and not just on this board :tup:
Again, sorry dude I gotta call it the way I see it....... you’re a bad seller, if not a complete liar, at least half assed one, plain and simple. I have been screeeeeeewed so many times through the years that I have learned to protect myself if not 100% at least 75% because I'm not giving up cars and bikes or the good people that are out there just because of you and people like you. I can prove everything I do and say, documents, pic's, boxes and packing etc. In my daily for profit business and my personal life both!
You just pulled your shit on the wrong guy one too many times. You screwed the pooch on this one and got busted!
If you want the stuff I'll send it, just like I have said umpteen times now, no problem. I'm just not gonna pay for it or lift one damn finger till then.
You have a nice one :tup: !
