Hi,
I placed 2 online orders with this company - have not received anything from them (Email, etc) as to my orders. It has been a few weeks - time to call the CC company? Any intel out there? Oh, yes I have sent them emails - have NOT called - next step.... CTC |

I know I'm probably gonna take some heat for griping about the Amazon Effect but it really makes me angry when before someone bothers to pick up a phone they go on a public forum and ask if someone is still in business. What happens if someone is looking for parts and stumbles across a thread like this? It's really damaging to a business this guy has probably worked many a 60 hour week to keep it afloat.
If you don't like to wait on parts and don't want a car that might break down, go buy a new Hyundai! But if you're gonna drive a 40 year old Porsche relax a little. |

QUOTE(Unobtanium-inc @ Aug 18 2018, 07:08 PM)  I know I'm probably gonna take some heat for griping about the Amazon Effect but it really makes me angry when before someone bothers to pick up a phone they go on a public forum and ask if someone is still in business. What happens if someone is looking for parts and stumbles across a thread like this? It's really damaging to a business this guy has probably worked many a 60 hour week to keep it afloat.

Though I understand the sentiment, I entered the order twice over 3 weeks. Then sent a note via their email/contact page. Obviously, they are having web challenges - or a bi-annual IFR checkride is looming. Online commerce is in it's twentieth (+) year. If you sell using TCP/IP, the expectations are high. However, I concede that I was a bit too fast to the keyboard where I could have just picked up the phone. And judging from Mark's response and all of his loyal fans ( and this new fan) even bad publicity can be turned to good exposure. |
