Unhappy Kustom Metal Werks (2)

I have been trying both George's business and home phone with no luck. Seems they are disconnected. Anyone know how to get in touch with him, new numbers?

The information on George is that he is a theif and everyone that has done business with him will acknowledge that fact. He owes me 2 roll bars plus my original and the side pipes he sent do not fit. It seems like there are enough people that have been burned that we can hire a local expeditor to visit George and show him the errors of his business dealings.

George's numbers have been disconnected according to one Cobra Manufacturer that no longer uses him for parts. See my info for clues for who that might be. This is so sad

Far as I know he is gone, but I am not certain. I just mailed him via post indicating if I do not receive my exhaust by Aug 10th I will be forced to file suit. The mail was registered and he did receive it.

At least we know he's alive. It's too bad his business practice wasn't better because he had a really nice product. It's also sad that he took advantage of so many people. It gives the rest of us in the business a bad rap also. My policy on small parts is to ship them with an invoice and hope the customer is honest enough to send me a check. I haven't been burned yet. All it takes is 1 guy to mess it up for everyone. Good luck with your exhaust Ron! I hope things work out for you.

Which reminds me... hey Don, I got the package, looks great, going on this weekend. Check is in the mail (I hope... my wife won't let me touch the check book)!

thanks!
