    Any way to get in contact with 400HPA4

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I've been trying to get a DSMIC kit through Greg since August of last year. Sent him my $797 via paypal right away. Things were tough and seemingly delayed all the time - didn't work out. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt the entire time as I realize he is making very little profit (if any).

    Got offered a refund several times, and decided to take him up on it in March (about two months ago). Still nothing here either - seems he's too busy to process my request.

    Repeated emails, phone calls, PM via audizine, but still nothing. Two months??

    I'm sorry, this just isn't cool, I don't like being dicked around.

    What gives?

    Any chance you were going to let me know? Or just continue to ignore 90% of my emails?

    I'm sorry to have to call you out like this but I'm willing to work with you (as you have seen). I understand what its like as I've had plenty of friends in active duty.

    My problem has been the huge lack of communication. Your response is appreciated.

    I do not consider it as calling me out, this is totally cool.

    Our last converstion was on the sixth, you sent a paypal apyment request but that would have meant that you would lose about $27 bucks.

    I mailed a check to you (we talked on the phone about this).

    If I recall the last conversation we had on the phone I said I was willing to eat the fees, just because it was more convenient for both of us. At this point I'm fine with a check.

    Did you send it to my address on Martin Terrace?

    We were waiting on two of the brackets that Audi has back ordered and apparantly cannot be purchased anymore. Frank and I had a clear understanding and he was willing to wait (refunds offered throughout the process).

    Unfortunately it just did not pan out and he asked to be refunded so I refunded him.

    I actually was in the group buy for the kit that started last March and had a deposit down - that never seemed to happen either. Had seen a couple of posts from 400HPA4 about still being able to get them - I started the second attempt to get the kit in August as you see.

    It seems not meant to be, but I'm fine with that now as I'm going to go FMIC instead.
