I AM SO FUCKING PISSED.......

more than a month ago, i bought an Aem Short ram intake from www.tunerboys.com, bought it through an ebay auction and thought i was getting a good deal......

after 2 weeks they tell me they screwed my order up and will ship out.....
after another week they tell me that there was another screw up, and shippped it out last week

at this point im already pretty pissed off. well today the package arrived and i just about flew through the fucking roof

the INTAKE HAS NO GOD DAMN MOTHER FUCKING FILTER!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?!?!?!?!?!?!?! THEY SENT ME A BOX FULL OF POPCORN, A TUBE AND SOME BRACKETS, NO INSTRUCTIONS, NO MOTHER FUcKING FILTER

first off, what can i do?? this is bullshit. i cant believe i waited a month, went through all the bullshit of calling these dumb fucks every week and writing them countless emails, just for them to send me A FUCKING TUBE>.......GOD DAMMIT SOME PEOPLE HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA HOW TO RUN A BUSINESS



:angryfire :angryfire :angryfire

AHHHHHHHHH what should i do???? ius there anyway i can get my money back or something?? IS THERE ANYONE IN TEXAS WHO CAN SMASH THESE FUCKERS WINDOWS FOR ME?!??!?!?!?!?!?!

AEM doesnt make their own filters. they actually use K&N filters, so what you need to do is look for one that fits your size tube. i believe its a 3inch diameter filter that you need, so look for that on either the K&N site or any other site that carries them or you can always go for a cheaper alternative. they all work so you dont have to worry. other universal brands will cost around 20-30 bucks..

thanks for the warning though. i cant believe thats how some guys do their business. thats really shady and messed up. good luck with whatever happens. at least now we know not to ever have any sort of business with those assholes.

Had you stolen those $30, you'd have a free filter now.

FUCK TUNERBOYS.....im gonna give them a call later today. i have a feeling they arent gonnna do shit though

You got scammed. Next time don't deal with the internet. They will always send you your package several months late, it will either be damaged, missing a piece, the wrong part, or they won't send you anything at all.

Best thing you can do is notify the BBB and internet fraud authorities. THey probably will already have many complaints.

Theres got to be a catch if its so cheap.

but i wouldnt be surprised if they already had many negetive feedbacks from previous customers.

and also you shouldve checked their feedbacks before actually buying the item. you never know what kinds of dirty scams they already tried to pull in the past. those feedbacks really do help, especially with service of their business

When I do buy off Ebay, I stick with the Power Sellers that have 99%+ positive feedback. That said, I've noticed that a number of Ebay sellers have been scamming buyers through VERY inflated shipping costs.
