some people know alot of lawyers on a personal level or family, I doubt they would charge 35,000 for a 35$ case.

Also laywers have to give free consultation and lawyer action I believe 3 times a year.. (at least here in Nevada) Maybe someone could get lucky

I meant the 100 people analogy. To get a lawyer to write a letter....$350. If I was out $100 to start, what sense does that make?

because if no one does anything, he will most likely go to site to site and mess with more people. We can't let people who make a living or a profit off ripping people off just go about their business.

Someone somwhere needs to make a sacrafice or get a bestfriend to sue and end the madness.

However, only if this is who he truly is though, alot of people on here still deem him not a scammer.

I agree, what will it solve. I mean if the total $$ amount is criminal like $35-50K than yeah get a layer and call the IRS. But I am not gonna sue or get involved in a suite over $80 and the Layer makes the $$ on not us.

How much are you owed? you know small claims court I think has a minimum and max $$ amount.

damn, this situation is sad. real sad that it has come to this.

i do kno Paul personally, and he has worked on my car back in september. if u check my profile, u can see some pics. i brought oznium lights and UB kit and he installed them for me. i didnt have the full installation price at the time, but he installed the stuff anyways. i stayed at his house while he worked on my car. talked wit him, he's a coo and funny guy.

i will admit though, he is a busy man. sometimes when i would go to his house, there would be 2-3 cars there that he would need to work on. and that is not including other parts that were mailed in. but as far as i kno, it make take him some time, but he would still work. he would be up past midnite some nites to get the work done. that is y all this is jus crazy to me. him neglecting his work and emails/calls.

i guess he just has a problem with time. again, he did take some time, days, installing my lights, but that was because he wanted the installation to be damn near perfect, and with no flaws. and its been over 6 months, and everything is still lookin brand new.

i am sorry for everybody who is suffering through this situation. i guess i just caught him at a good time.

moreover, i hope all works out with those in need of refunds/parts, and for Paul.

Its jus sad that his buisness and name is goin down the drain. He does/did good work. i jus dunno wat the problem is now.

"spECIal " I wish I was more in your boat and like i said I hate to talk about other people when they are not there. He did good work on my Gauges but you also live really close to him so what ever is or were to be wrong could be fixed with out allot of trouble. I think allot of folks here live really far/ out of state. I live over 1 hr away so not only is it a pain to drive for a small fix but the time it takes to get a response can just take all the willingness out of you cause then he says he is out of stock and so on.

Some of the people with probs can really hold him personally accountable like this on:

BlackRose617
Boston MA

Allot of pages here so I am gonna just use that example. Again I say if your serious about being in business hire an assistant cause it matters. I would like to see Paul succeed, I liked him when I met him. I would even help if it was not so far I would learn for a small fee but I am too far.

When I get a really big job I always assume I am gonna have to outsource a bit of work to get the job done. It's about satisfying to customer not me. When they are happy I am happy so I take a bit out of hte profit for quality.

I just wanted to say sorry if anyone is hurt or angry about anything I wrote here in this post. I feel horrible about it.

However these are important things that need to be said about ANY Aftermarket Auto Company/person etc.

I am now working with a company that make my CF hood. The one they made for me was warped. I really could not expect to use it for shows and compete for anything the way it is. I contacted them and explained my problems with pics and through talk and honesty they will be making me a totally new hood. They will lose money prob. but that is some thing that you do when you want to keep in business. I should not suffer for there mistake.

You can bet 100% if they do good and make a good fitting hood I will be promoting them and helping them make there money back

The rule of thumb in good business is "without the customer the company does not exist". When some one has a good experience they tell 3 people or so. However when a person has a bad experience they tell 8 people or more!! Wow what a difference and why companies want to please not ____!

True!!! The Internet/blog/forum world has changed the equation but the statistics still apply just in greater estimated numbers

Bringing this back on topic again...


Two month have elapsed since Paul received my money (this was weeks before his oral surgery). I sent Paul money for some LEDs. We communicated three times before the sale by email to be sure I was buying the correct items. After I paid he refused to ship, refund or even answer mail. After he posted his excuses here he then emailed me a week later to say I would get a refund. Needless to say he did not follow thorough on that promise either.

I was forced to file a claim against him through Paypal and of course the decision was in my favor. He never even bothered to reply to Paypal's inquiries. I received a full refund today.

Paul,
Let us know when you grow up to become a man and take responsibility for your own actions.

If anyone needs help I am more than willing to lend a hand. While I cant go out and buy people new parts, I can work to find good deals for you and/or help fix what you already have that is not working. So if you have units that are back, but not working, I can try to get you going again.
