  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    I sent my money to a boardmember for some headers....this coming Wednesday is four weeks that money was recieved . No parts...no returned e-mails,PM's or voice messages.Made contact 9 days ago, was told parts are being sent out again and tracking info would be forwarded...nothing as of this afternoon. Dont want to jump to conlusions...I know things happen but no follow up with lead time?
    What to do gentlemen? Apart from this I have had good old fashioned deals...terms agreed to up front and honarable closure.

    Regards,

    David G de-modded....

    Well, this doesn't sound good at all. Were the headers supposedly OFF the car and ready to be packed and shipped, when you paid for them?

    Feel free to post the seller's name, maybe someone here knows them personally and can shed some light.

    The headers in question were off the car...pics posted as well. I appreciate you stepping up...guys name is James Meyer Jr. Maybe somethinig happened, who knows...just a follow up from the guy would be good. I am not giving up. I want to buy a real nice intake from another board member (deal on hold till this one is closed) but now I have second thoughts..I would feel too stupid if it happened twice in a row.

    I hate to see this happen. Looks like he has had some contact with some other board members here, maybe they can help. I'm sure it will work out.

    When I buy and sell from this board, I look at post history from the member to see how many they have and how long they have been on. There are a few problems posted from time to time, but most of the transactions work out very well for all involved.

    Hope this works out for you and you get your headers, and your intake.

    THanks Carmantx...you know , this guy has some positive feed back which is why I figured it was OK,but what is disturbing to me is that I spoke at length with the guy. I hope someone that has dealt with him or is near him can assist.

    Regards,
