Manifest Received doesn't mean shipped... just means that someone said there is something to be picked up. Ask Rock Dog about this. He got the same thing from that X guy and still doesn't have a product.

I did tell you (meaning) all that someone else bought the company and I got a call from the VP at home with children crying (I wonder why)....


Another one chalked up to "live and learn..."

Perhaps you are happy....


THEY SCREWED ME UP BIG TIME!!!!!

I actualy talked to the VP of Customer Service and was promised that I would never get the part and that it would never ship. I have already installed the part I received directly from Neuspeed.

They now have charged my card anyway -- and this is after the VP called me back to insure that they would NOT do this.

Talk about a pisser.

I now have to call AMEX to have the charges reversed (if the bar actualy shows up). Now mind you the cancellation occured on 7/6/2001. I then received a "we may ship anyway..." I then called the VP and he PROMISED that the item would never be sent and that I would never be charged.

Talk about messed-up....

They now just say that the item is going to ship, and they decided to charge me anyway!


If anyone ever thinks they would enjoy the equivalent of a "stalker", just give 'em a call -- they won't leave you alone... No promise will ever be kept!

Hmmm... Reminds me of a pyramid scheme. The first few "in" reap the benefits at the expense of the later ones...

BTW -- the VP of customer service that promised to "pick the parts up himself" if they ever showed up *and* promised that the order was stopped anyway, will not return my e-mails or phone calls. Once the order gets cancelled, they keep sending info that says you are getting charged, but don't send tracking info necessary to re-route the parts or figure out when they are coming.

If you want to risk it and like to save a few bucks for a lot of hassles -- go for it. Just be sure to use the American Express card, so you can make sure they don't get paid for all of their Bull $hit.

Bottom line -- if I had a dollar for every promise they broke, I would be buying from them every week!
