Thats a tall statement about the vendors on our site! We have some great vendors on here that go above and beyond what they need to do . Even if you do'nt buy from them!. I understand your frustration I'm going through it myself . But trust me, the wait is worth it for quality items such as Marquez. Pasquel won't do you wrong!!!

You know that going into the deal in my opinion. If you're in a hurry for anything in this hobby, your in trouble or going to pay a hefty premium.

I agree. Heck two weeks is nothing when it comes to building a car! I think bashing someone over two weeks is a little petty myself, oh well. Especially when it sounds like he paid no money up front.

Default Marquez Design

Good things come to those who wait!

I'd highly recommend you reconsider!

You'll only be disappointed if you don't...

No, the whole point of starting this thread was to bash them. I understand your fustration on waiting and not wanting to. That is your right as a customer.

I know first hand he was not completely satisfied with the product and wanted to make sure the fit and finish were to his satisfaction. That is his right as a buisness owner.

If your car is waiting on an interior and is holding up your build then I understand you needing to move on but if you can wait I suggest you do so as you will not be disappointed.

you do realize that even if i waited the 2 weeks( what pasqual said) and i dont believe him, i still have to get the panels upholstered,drill holes for vents, uh maybe 2-3-4 weeks or more there? by the time i get the car ready i can weld a snow plow on it? try calling them, their phone is horrible, they dont email anyone back from their web site? go figure? i got my flush mount glass quicker!

Contrary to what you posted just a little while ago - it seems that all you are interested in doing is bashing them. That's your decision and thankfully (for everybody it would appear) you have decided to move on to another option. Again, that's your choice and you are free to make it.

However, in terms of a pro-touring build, nothing happens overnight and everything takes time, money and work. The fact that Pascual is not prepared to send off a part that is less than 100% says (to me) more about his being "a real company" than anything else. I for one have always been happy with the parts that Marquez has made have never for one minute regretted the time they took to arrive.

I understand wanting instant gratification and respect your decision to explore other options when you can't have it, but it's no reason to bash this or any other vendor.

Sounds like to me I can get an interior kit in two weeks because some guy thicks Rome was built in a day. SWEET.

If waiting 2 weeks for any part is going to put you behind 2 more weeks, you should have started looking 4 weeks before the car even went to paint.

What is the saying? "Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine."

Everything in building cars takes twice as long and twice as much money as first expected. If you don't believe it, you have not built one.
