Anybody know Clint at Rebel Racing Products? I bought rainshields, along with a bunch of suspension improvements that did arrive, from him last year and haven't seen them and he isn't responsive. At wits end and not a little frustrated....
Anyone here able to poke this guy into action? |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) so much simping for this “business”. Must be a really special guy. What am I missing?
Back in the day people weren’t so accepting of shady business practices and weren’t afraid to call it out. Does anyone remember when AA was so despised for less egregious business practices? There are still folks here holding that grudge decades upon decades later. Any of my dealings with AA since 2018 have been stellar but I certainly wouldn’t tolerate them not shipping parts for the better part of 1/2 year nor did others back in the day. As far as 1 man shops goes . . . I’ve dealt with plenty of 1 man shops over the years as well as many of you here (Tangerine/CFR,PMB, MB911, Bdstone914, 914sixer, 914Werke, and countless others) where they repeatedly have shown nothing but the highest integrity. Size has nothing to do with being shady and not communicating with customers. I totally respect Mepstein’s post about simply not doing business with Rebel to avoid the disappointment. I do the same even though some of his product does look very interesting. Sorry to continue to (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dead horse.gif) but this guy stands in stark contrast to the rest of our vendor community. Please don’t drag our good vendors down by lumping them in with this character. |

Really good guy going through a difficult time and possibly just keeping his head above water. Life is complex. |

Really good guy going through a difficult time and possibly just keeping his head above water. Life is complex. If you know this guy why don't you call him.and tell.him to either send.out the parts.or refund the money. Just because he's seems to be wading through shit as it seems from your comments doesn't mean he has to drag customers with him. Everybody ends up in it at one time or another. Time to take responsibility and change your life. |
