Mci what a mess!
 
I sent them a mock up for my custom center console about May 2014. we went over every thing that was needed for the build. I was told about a month for completion. A month was up and nothing. I contacted Mike several times and he kept telling me that he was waiting on cup holders and glovebox lid. Anther month passed and nothing I had a family member go to his shop ( a half an hour from them) and see what was going down. When they arrived the shop was no longer there completely emptied out and a dusty little man in the middle of an empty shop sanding a door panel getting it ready to ship, it was Mike he lost his shop and was moving. He told us that he old finish up my stuff and send it out but he would no longer be doing custom work until he he got caught up. We thought that was fair enough and went home. The next week I got a tracking number from him. I was excited it was going to ship! Well I was wrong I am still waiting he has changed his number and I do not have a location of the new shop but I have one more option I cannot shae now but will keep you updated.

That isn't disappointing, that is BS!!! I am not so obtuse to think this stuff makes itself, but you damn sure better communicate with me!!

I meant disappointing that he wouldn't answer my email. I am looking for info to resolve this. I am in no way defending what's happening, but we're talking about two different things.

Looks like I'm not alone here then, When I was deployed he answered every email and had no problem answering the phone to take my money when I got back... now, nothing. Looks like I better start making my own.

Well this just sucks. I feel for you guys who have been hung out to dry as I have been through this before (with another vendor, not on this board). I was really hoping to get his dash as it is unique and not many others will have it. Looks like I might be fabbing my own as well.

I'm going to continue to try to contact Mike. From what I've seen in past conversations I think he's just way behind, but don't think he's going to screw anyone completely. That's my opinion for what it's worth. No excuse for lack of communication, but I think when he can catch back up he'll deliver the product to those who have paid. I hope I'm right.

Jody, thanks for staying on this. Please keep us apprised.

Seems to be the norm from him. I had to badger him for months to get my dash. These kinds of things happen way to often. Just because you can make a product doesn't mean you ca run a business. It's unfortunate some of these talented people don't get some basic business lessons before they start. IMO

I cant even Badger him to see what the status is because he won't reply to Emails or answer my phone calls /call me back ...I can be a patient customer just some honest communication is all I ask.

Well still no response to e-mails or more phone calls, so looks like it's time to call the credit card company and unfortunately I had to start making my own out of aluminum.
