I got a new e-mail flyer from them and they have seriously dropped some prices from what I remember. Their "greatest rubber kit" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) is now 499.50 wasn't it previously like 600.00 or more? 19 pice clutch kit is 385.00 used to be a clutch pressure plate and throwout bearing were that much. Steel rockers for 300.00 ALMOST seems reasonable. Note I in now way encourage buying from them at this point but is the BIG CHANGE as they put it going to be werthwhile?? Have they finally woken up and will straighten that place out??I havn't bought from them in a couple of years so my brain may be misfiring..........




























Probably not (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

Eric - I may be speaking out of turn here but if there was an issue with the cores, why didn't you simply send them back?


Send them back to who? You? This is the first I ever heard they came from you. Understand?

These came from Greg Treadway of GT not AA.

The reason I didn't simply send them back is, Greg was fairly up front about them. He stated "I'll send you these cores and hopefully you can make one good one out of them.

I made Greg Treadway a SS Pedal Assembly shipped it to him. He Paypaled me and the deal was closed.

When he ordered a second SS Pedal Assembly, I told him that I hoped the cores would be better than the last because frankly I would have a hard time making a good one. He sent the next two. I sent the SS Pedal Assembly. He Paypaled me and the deal was closed.

QUOTE
I can see the issue you have with them, they're clearly in pretty bad shape. But the tone you're taking now indicates that you knew when you opened the box in October that you would not be able to rebuild them. Whey then did you wait until right now in this thread to make a public complaint?


Because Jr. seemed to be insinuating that I boinked you guys by somehow taking 6 pedal clusters from "you" and delivering nothing in return. Jr. wanted me to "tell me the story on the six pedal clusters we sent you to rebuild in October?" I told the story.

QUOTE
I'm sure nobody here was trying to screw you over, it was clearly just assumed that you could whip something together and get them rebuilt. Since we obviously wanted them for our own business, what would our motivation be to screw you over on this?


I've never done business with you Jason... read the previous posts. The invoices and the Paypal reciepts are from Greg Treadway of GT Performance. Are you now saying you are associated with Greg Treadway?

QUOTE
Again, this really isn't my expertise and for all I know you were working with Greg for some time on these, I'm just curious.


So we're all on the same page... I did work with Greg on this. It was supposedly 'after' he left AA. All the invoices were GT and the deals are done. Closed. Greg at GT Performance received two pedal clusters from us. We received those 6 cores.

There seems to be some serious confusion here. You guys seem to think you've done business with me. You must have UPS records showing those cores came from you, right? Some sort of a purchase order? I'm telling you they came from a different company all together.

QUOTE
In either case, I'm sure we could get this resolved but I'm not sure if turning a public discussion into a personal attack is the proper way to get things done. If you give us a call on Monday and ask for me or Sean we can discuss the proper course of action to take. I'm sorry you ended up having to waste your time on those.


Thanks Jason... sincerely. However, I don't have a problem with it. I took it as what it was. I got 6 pretty bad cores for my 2 rebuilds. I'm sure there's some parts I can use there.

Regarding a personal attack: Myself and others here in this thread obviously thought Jr.'s
QUOTE
...tell me the story on the six pedal clusters we sent you to rebuild in October?
comment was the personal attack. Mine was simply telling him "The Story"

Honestly, George Hussey probably knows 1000 times more than I ever will about these cars but, if you want to go toe-to-toe with me regarding integrity, this is the place to do it. I've never screwed anyone here and I never will... that goes for you.

Does that all make sense?
