Posted by: ripper911 Jul 25 2013, 07:36 AM

You may have noticed me posting more and being helpful. I have decided that I should use my time at AA to the advantage of the world, therefore when parts questions come up and I can supply numbers or pictures I will do so.
I am by no means an expert, but I do work around these cars everyday.

Also, consider me available if you have questions about orders placed or if you need parts. I'll be here to help. Consider me as direct customer service for world members, as I am the one who pulls the parts to send out and would like to ensure that y'all are getting what you need.

I know that others that have worked at AA have reached out to the membership in a similar fashion over the years. I have been a member here far longer that I've worked at AA, so I'm on your side. beerchug.gif

May the force be with you in your endeavors!!

You beat me!!

In actual point of fact, the local 914WORLD vernacular has long since altered that particular acronym.

ILBT is, by far, the preferred substitution on this BBS.

And as far as it goes, it looks to me as though our friend ripper is only clearly stating his willingness to provide assistance to the community at large. Whether or not he is being encouraged to do this by his employer, it seems to me, at worst, to be a passive attempt to garner a little good will.

Oh and good luck in that contest in the sandbox! thumb3d.gif

It's been my experience that some help is better than none , YMMV....

I have been encouraged to offer my services in the past, but I haven't as of yet.
I just figured It would be good if I can do my part to get people what they need or answering questions and such. Feel free to PM me if you have issues or parts that you need.

No, Dave.

This could get interesting.

Especially if he makes a smoothie out of George. biggrin.gif

Did you pull the stock front anti-sway bar parts for the order I just received?
How many more do you have?

Nice to get the drop links with the arms at no extra charge. The prices are steep enough already. blink.gif
However, I would have liked the specially shaped washers and bolts with the arms too. I'll have to fudge it now.
Also, the mounts had been hammered on by some goon at one point.

Or were the drop links thrown in due to the other deficiencies?

It means "I Like Big Titties"

As for AA, I used them years (25) ago and had no issues......
Back before there was this "internet thingy" their catalog & a phone conversation was as close as you could get to realtime help with a 914.

Good gesture on you buddy and I wish you good luck. I will be needing some stuff here pretty soon and I will keep you in mind. beerchug.gif

King George rules over his employees like a Nigerian WarLord!

Posted by: dale73914 Jul 28 2013, 05:50 AM

Any offer is a good offer to me.

They have given me good service and as an international customer , I only get one shot at getting the order right.

I got a good deal on a front targa / a pillar rubber from the run they did a while ago too.

no complaints from me.

Cheers

Dale

Your enthusiasm is sparkling. I just hope it doesn't get beaten out of you by the follies of the other employees or management. One bad apple can spoil the whole bushel.

Ya'll have a good day!

Posted by: PanelBilly Jul 28 2013, 10:47 AM

I think this is great. I want several sources for parts and vendors who compete with customer service and not just $. If I'm buying a used part I want someone who will personally vouch for the condition and stand behind what they say.

Good work! Nice to hear an employee make the effort to improve the business where they earn a living.
