in all honesty i am not trying to start up shit with you...

but what i would like to know is, how did they "cheat" you?
they did spend time helping you out, they did refund your money. shops don't run on hand outs. they did after all order you the parts. dealt with the shipping arrangements, and dealt with you. either way, you got the parts and you didn't lose any real amount of money.

^^Did you not read the first paragraph where they attempted to get $25 additional dollars, which would have made their cut $49.06 after I placed the order?

*Edit: That is absurdly tacky, you don't have a deal and then try to get more money out of someone under the guise of "additional shipping charges". Especially if there are none as evidenced by the COD request from Tein.

All they refunded was what they were supposed to pay Tein so that I could get the money order as that apparently was too much work for them.

I don't know about you, but it seems every time i sign on i see a thread talking about a horrible experience with this shop ever since rob and dave left. One things for sure, that thread in mitsu tech sealed the deal of me ever stepping foot anywhere near that shop.

i have never dealt with them either, but have seen those threads you pertain to and also my friend had a horrible experience with them.

dude thats a shitty situation, i can understand how the shop wants some money but the way that it happened i dont see how they deserve money. all they did was order them for you and you had to deal with all the bullshit that you pay them to deal with.

monday the ups man was at fault.
??? ups never delivered it in the first place so i wouldnt blame ups... sounds like brotherz was the middle man between this transaction and the OP shouldve just gone through tein directly... the shop basically charged 25ish dollars to order the suspension

you know, thats how businesses make money correct?
i hate shops, and dont buy from anyone local except a few places.

all in all, be glad you got your stuff, and not just an empty pocket and move on.

I don't care about the $25 I'm out. What I do care about is people knowing of bad experiences with this shop and then avoiding doing business with them.
