You have an opinion. ZOMG ... BFD ... YAWN ... take your pick ...

That's all this is, a difference of opinion.

I'm not sure where you developed the idea that you are so wise. Just how does a bulb get sharp, Einstein? I suppose I'm not the brightest knife on the string either, lol.

Btw I think the facade that companies that have scammed individuals cannot be kicked off the vendors list because they are registered with internet brands is infact nothing more than a bogus claim. There have been many sites that have been removed from the IB vendors page, example:

http://www.bimmerboost.com/showthrea...t-Brands-sites

Sounds more like responsible parties aren't willing to take the effort to file a claim. So instead of creating a shitstorm of threads about how one company blows and the other company is full of **** and another company is run by 6 year olds ... maybe we should leave it in the hands of those who took on the responsibility of hosting a forum that advertises commerce with vendors, as well as those moderating said forum.

Honestly questions the credibility of the forums when the admins are saying "yea this company sucks but they can still advert on the forums, its out of our hands"

Note: I am in no way bashing the forums, admins, owners, members, groups, vendors, etc. I am one of the newer members and have not had the pleasure of being screwed over by a vendor (yet). It just worries me to see so much negativity without resolve.

but what does it matter.. this will probably get erased, ill probably get banned, and brice will still be a vendor here because he pays them the monthly fees..
Though this has been at times essentially true...

...you can't/needn't prove something isn't the case.
The burden of proof lies with the one asserting that something is true.

He made quite a few disparate assertions. Which would you have him prove first?

For sure.

I don't know much about that whole episode - it wasn't really on my radar at the time.
Seemed like someone got "sold-up" on that.

Just another notch in that tree...

Oh I miss Patrick. Really I do. I miss hanging out with him. Wish you never left.

What about the turbo kit installation you walked away from and left the customer saying wtf? And took 1k of his money without completion? Who fixed that mess? Oh I did.

Man there are so many issues.

I distinctly remembering a phone call asking if I wanted to help part a car for a "friend" of yours. He was over his head in payments and wanted the car gone. Your idea was to part out the car and the guy would claim the car was stolen so insurance would get him out of the payments for the car.

I didn't want you banned, but I wanted you to fix the issues you had created and you never did. There were other issues between you and I and It was out of my hands at that point. Zoom thought I was using it to shut you up which I was to an extent but I was not withholding that information. I just could not prove it until you sent that pm saying who cares if it was claimed stolen.

What a debacle...

Birds a feather flock together.

I bought a $20.00 part from G3tr3ddy2gr3ddy that came broken (not by packaging). Nothing was ever done about it and I never pushed it. 1 lap dance down the tubes.

It's sad really that some people just can't earn an honest living for themselves.

and its not a "low shot" its just a simple fact that needs to be said so other members aren't confused into thinking that this is the way this should be handled and that the admins are doing justice or anything.
Wow, this is great. Patrick sold me one of those alledged stolen parts (2nd oil cooler). It was a super smooth transaction at the time. I was very pleased with the turn-around.

Then a couple months later I'm informed I'm likely driving around with a stolen oil cooler and Patrick was banned from the site.

Little did I know that this was all instigated by Brice. Had I known that then I wouldn't have been so quick to assume that Patrick was at fault.

Things that make you go hrmm....

(remember stealth? i dealt straight with you for an ECU )

but then 4 years later, Brice claims that the car was possibly stolen to hide the original revealing of truth that he indeed worked with SCOTT GLASBURN, then BOOM.. gr3ddy no longer exist and detective show up to search his property..

all that was before this thread was made.. where he admits to being a scammer, but nothing happens to gr3ddy except still being permanently banned

sorry for threadjacking.. but not really :/
Scott had nothing (to my knowledge) to do with the Detectives or Patrick being banned. And as such, that is all I'm going to say on the matter.
