Well, I am getting that about to be screwed feeling again
I surrendered my $1500 heads and my $1000 cylinders over to this guy out in the boonies that had a loyal following. This was in April
It is not 3 months later and he still has not gotten them done. If this was the only issue, I would not be whining, but it is not.
Shortly after I gave him the parts, he turned his phone off. He is planning on moving to SC eventually and is trying to finish things up before a huge move of his huge shop.
I could drop buy and visit with him randomly so I was not worried and figured I would give him more time (I was not in a hurry). Well, now I have been to his place 3 times in the last 2 weeks and he has not been around. This is how he does business as I had another old-timer stop buy to see if he was in while I was writing a not for him.
This is where I get more concerned. I wrote a nice letter asking him to call me so I can schedule a time for pickup of my stuff. Scotty B has a friend that can do it, and faster. I plan to go to Scotty's shop this weekend so I am trying to get my stuff to bring it instead of shipping it. I said so on the note, taped it to his door on Tues.
Today, the not is gone and I have received no call. I left another note pleading that he call me as I need my parts by tomorrow. I have little faith that such will happen.
I am starting to think about my recourse. When should I involve low enforcement? I actually like this guy, but he needs to get his shit together.
Why do I trust people?
