Does not look good when a vendor ducks messages. I wonder if this is another scam? Has anyone heard from John. Everything I have read seems to say he is ok but I do not understand this at all. He PM'd me that he was shipping it out on Monday and today is Sunday and no word, nothing, nada, zip.
He is not ducking any messages. He is taking some family time this weekend. He is allowed to do that isn't he? He will be back on either late tonight or on Monday. I'm sure he will get back to you when he logs back on.

That is fine to take some family time, no one denies that. However it has been a week. Maybe you can answer this for him as well; did he ship it or not and why?
I will be shipping your stock t-body back to you. I dont like it when people are impatient when I am working on parts to make them perfect. The PTGT t-bodies leaked just like the srt units and we are waiting for the parts to get here so we can install them. You have seen the pictures of the semi finished product but you can not seem to wait for it. Send me your address (PM) and the stocker will be back out to you. Sorry we couldnt work a deal.
What do you mean could not work out a deal. That is so wrong. You told me you were shipping it out last Monday. You obviously didn't ship it andnow you are saying you didn't even do it???? That does not make sense. You only recently today, said that you have to fix some leaking thing but did not say what is leaking nor why. Why didn't you tell me this last week instead of saying you were shipping it. When you said you were shipping it anyone would have presumed that you tested it and all was fine otherwise why say you are shipping it? I think there is three day old fish somewhere. Please tell me what is leaking and what do you have to do to fix it. I spent the money already on the TB so I need to have this finished as agreed. Just be straight that is all I have asked for since the beginning.
You need to relax Tom. Picking up the phone is a far better way to deal with this situation.
Yeah that and not call someone a possiable scammer because it is taking a little longer than expected on a part in development. Which you knew when shipping the stock TB.

You have a way of dealing with things that I dont like and I will not deal with people of your personality on a personal or business way, sorry. We tested the t-body with a bench tester but it would only go up to 10 psi and then we got the plate built so I could leak test them and they leak like a SOB at the seals (sealed bearing). So I wanted to find a fix for that before I shipped them out, for this I get you all up in my face online. How much did you spend on the t-body, reason that I ask is I will refund for that or I can send the t-body back. You can think that this smells like fish all you want I am trying to make a product for the PTGT owners and this is what I get? I have 2 ways to fix this, refund for what you spent on your t-body or send a replacement back to you. You let me know which one of the 2 so we can resolve this ASAP.
If you had only explained this up front none of this would have happened. I did not mean to get you upset, I just wanted to know what was going on. As you said let's get past this and move on. I would appreciate it if you would send me the modded TB as we originally agreed.

I have over 100 people that I talk to everyday not one is more important then the other, so you think that I should pick up the phone and call you or PM you when we run into a problem. I would never get anything done if I had to do that. The performance industry has things happening to it all the time and on top of that I have a family that I would like to spend time with as well. I have been burnt in the past on a deal just like this and I will not let it happen again. There were 2 ways to resolve this, end of topic.
