Holly crap talk about customer service!!! First I ordered a used mirror 'cause I'm a cheap bastard and it's not exactly concourse material. Well, I wasn't entirely happy with what I got... So he absolutely made it right. Better than right... I feel like I owe him now. How'd I get in this position?

Then today I called and asked for stupid used part to try building something and again, the guy is too good to believe. So far I've just been shopping for silly trinkets, but when it comes time to buy real parts I know where I'll look first! Customer service pays off! At least it does with me!

I bought a set used set of replica Fuchs from him a few weeks ago off of the classifieds section. I picked the wheels up at his shop and hung out for about 1/2 an hour talking to him. Super nice guy who really loves 914's and willing to do what he can for his customers.

I've dealt with Nate several times - standup guy!

Tells it like it is & always comes through.

On my "best vendor" list.

Same here, Nate will go above and beyond to make a customer happy.
I will use him again very soon.. beerchug.gif

Ditto! Nate is a good guy & takes care of his customers. I've bought a few things & sold him a few things. Was quick with shiping & is great to work with. A true-blue 914 guy

I'll chime in here as well. Nate is awesome! I have purchased several parts from him over the past 6 months or so. He always delivers what he says and is a real pleasure to work with.

Keep up the great work, Nate!!!

I just spoke with Nate last week. He said if you don't like it send it back. No problem. Does it get better than that...................NO!

So I said fine then lost all the contact information until today.

Is there someplace on the web site that says where this business is located? I pretty much have an internet buying rule that if a web site doesn't post a physical location I don't buy from them.

Yes, me too, unless it says Florida, then I still don't buy from them.
I got screwed around on 3 out of 4 ebay deals from Florida. Not completely screwed, just screwed around a bit.

Well, I clicked on Contact when I visited, and I didn't see any of that stuff. You better believe I'm paranoid, there are too many crooks out there on the wire.

I agree with what the guy said about Florida, except for me its New York, I won't buy anything on the net from anywhere in New York.

Posted by: Twystd1 May 2 2007, 11:40 PM

PM me. I will give you Nates cell phone number. he is a good guy IMHO.

I chat with him all the time. I would send my money to him... No problems.

Hi there:

For those neurotics out there..!!

I'm neurotic to... The first time I heard from this guy was in this forum... I entered to his site and ask for a windshield.... He reply pretty fast... told him to do business trough Paypal... and worked pretty fine.

BTW I live in Puerto Rico and these car are really RARE here... I just have seen about 6 914 here in the island including mine so parts for this car are very rare around here. 914-Parts.com is my first choice when looking for parts....then e-Bay.
