Jeff wrote back a response for this thread. Since he can't post, I'm going to post for him.

Here's his response:

Or you could just ask me for my phone number directly. Its not like you haven't been able to get hold of me. We've traded e-mails every other week since February. Shall I post them?

6 - 8 weeks to ship from receipt of payment. Unfortunately, it has sometimes take up to 10 weeks, but I've always communicated with the customers when that was going to be an issue.
In this case the kit shipped in 7 weeks and 3 days from receipt of payment.

He never answer me.
Once again, shall I post our e-mails? How about just my responses on 3/6, 3/24, 4/2, 4/7 or today?

You need to have this to run your business right!
First of all, who are you?
Second, I am under no obligation to answer anyone's questions (and believe me, I get asked a LOT of really dumb questions) if I have no fiduciary responsibility to the person asking those questions.
I have no facilities, no employees, no "training" program and no real fulfillment system. I'm just a guy that builds parts for people. In this particular situation, I did so at an enormous loss which appears to be growing daily.

You are an idiot. How is that?

It's not like he expected everything to arrive the very next day he ordered and paid. Asking for an update and not getting one after 2 months is pretty unreasonable.
As noted above, Steven never went more than a couple of weeks without hearing from me. I often sent updates completely unprompted.

These kits are built completely to order and, in this specific case, there were some very specific customizations (4-port/5-speed, Synchronic BOV, etc.).

Did you ask for insurance on this product? I'm sorry 6k for a item I'd be foolish not to opt for some form of insurance incase it got lost in the mail.
Steven specifically asked to have the package undervalued to avoid customs. That made me quite uneasy, so I took out insurance on its parts value. I'm sure customs loved that discrepancy.
He also balked when I told him how much it would cost to ship via UPS (my shipping method of choice for numerous reasons). We opted for USPS to keep the cost down and to get in "under the radar" of Customs.

Real smart trying to play one over on the government.

Probably the kit is in the dumpster somewhere.

I own a service/sales business that deals with large hotels and small mom & pop laundries. I could tell you what it's like to do business with some groups of people but then I would be accused of being racist or prejudiced. That would defiantly not be the case - it is a cultural thing that we just have to get used to if we wish to remain in business. Some times it is very difficult.

I think the original poster's accusation has now been answered. Thread closed.
