Default Gordon Race Engineering- worst business on the east coast

So there i am, looking through group buys about two months ago....i saw all the group buys for greddy strut bars and whatnot and decided hey why not contact one of these guys and see if i can get it with sway bars while im at it right?
So i contact Gordon Race Engineering whos alias on this site is "TurboCustomz"
We negotiated and the price finally landed at 410 shipped.
And at the time i was too lazy to try paypal so i sent him a check. He cashed the check on march 13th. Anyways part of the negotiation was to have the parts to my front door no later than april 1st, bcuz i was goin to texas to install all these parts at my buddys garage ( Reddinc.net ) So yeah April 1st comes around and no parts. I am infuriated of course but i am a very kind man so i called and left very professional calls stating i didnt have my parts and i dint understand what the hold up was.
No answers ever, no callbacks, no pm's. Ever it seemed. Finally get a PM back on scionlife sayin he had shipped them but the address was invalid. Whatever, so i gave him my address again. Finally i just got my parts on April 23! and it was only after April 5th that i threatened to call the police, Better Business Bureau, and that i was going to take leave and come knock on his front door that i finally got any kind of response. Thanks for nothing TurboCustomz, you are perhaps the worst business ever. I will make it my goal to steer people away from your business.

sincerely,

tCGetOnMyLevel

PS-if anyone wants the PM's sent back and forth i will post them gladly with dates and everything.

Did they ever say what was wrong with the address? Generally if you ship one thing and it comes back and you get an address again, you can compare...
