Finish Line Accessories
 
Anyone ordered anything from them recently? I've been trying for over a week to get some response from them, but nothing.........

Be persistent! He's a bugger to get in touch with. That's the way he operates

What are you looking to order?

Maybe we can help with an alternative source?

I’ve been waiting over 6 months on a refund from this outfit. Unless it’s something only he carries, I would look elsewhere.

I placed an order a month or so ago. Prior to placing my order I read a lot of comments on here about how orders have been taking forever and that he is hard to get in contact with, I decided to try anyway because everything I needed was in one place. After placing my order I got an order confirmation, then no contact until I got a tracking number a couple of weeks later. Seeing it was all items that I didnt need immediately and I had the expectation that it would take some time it was okay. Everything eventually arrived in good condition. That being said, if I needed something immediately I would look elsewhere.

Unfortunately, I've already placed an order with them. Just bits and pieces mainly that I need to finish off my build.

Emailed them a couple days ago inquiring about an item they don’t show on the site. Haven’t heard back yet.

Never had an issue with them. Last order was in Jan, got a tracking email a couple of days later. Quick shipping in all cases.

I just spoke with Taylor who is the owner. Poor guy been down with a bad case of the flu for some time and has just managed to struggle back in today for a few hours.

He says he is a couple of weeks behind on the orders, and is trying desperately to catch up. He hopes to have my order out early next week.

I knew there had to be some reason behind the lack of response, as I have dealt with them a couple of times in the past and never had a problem.

I hate to be debbie downer here again. I was a very happy Finish Line customer a number of years ago. However, if you look at other topics on the subject you'll see that he has probably had the flu for something like over a year. You are not unique. The delays and lack of responses are the norm. I hope you get your stuff but if it doesn't show up soon you should dispute your credit card charge before the time limit expires.

I ordered two hard-to-find parts from Finishline early this month. I received a confirmation of the order promptly, and then about ten days later I was notified of their shipping and a tracking number. I received about half a dozen shipping updates and then on Monday this week, they turned up.....and I'm in Adelaide, Australia.
I'm very happy with that service :)

Thank you Finishline.

Cheers!
Glen

Glen, are you sure you didn’t order from Cobra Accessories? I ask because, if you get to Finish Line via Google, the link takes you to a landing page that’s for FL on the left side and Cobra Accessories on the right. I’ve ordered from both, and the experience you describe is exactly what I experienced from CA and the opposite of what I experienced with FL.

Maybe I just caught Finish Line on a bad day. Twice, LOL.

Is this the Finish Line that was building CSX cars in the 90s and 2000s?

You had me thinking I'd goofed :eek:

There are not too many sources for Cobra Spares how about trying to help the guy instead of trying to put him down

Has anybody actually not received their parts and not gotten their money returned? So far, it seems like everybody received their parts eventually and he has not outright screwed anybody out of money.

In lieu of this, I would say if you are in a hurry for the part, find it somewhere else. If not, then place your order, sit back, and wait. Everybody should know the routine by now. It has been posted numerous times on various sites about the lack of communication and sometime slow delivery, but everybody gets their parts.

Why would you not cancel the order through your credit card company?

It may already be too late.

My experience is very similar to most. If you order something from this outfit and you don't expect to receive it or do not want to return it if you do receive it; you should be very pleased with the level of his service.

No, return phone calls, no returned emails and didn't return my money or the item I returned to him.

Given him the benefit of the doubt: it was absolutely the worst service I have ever had.

And, without that benefit I would call it a scam.

Like I said, I emailed at least a dozen times and lost track of how many times I tried to call him. Never, answered the phone or returned an email.

Buyer Beware...you have been warned.
