Thumbs up Thanks Ted Wright

I took a chance. I read a thread a few months ago, and was a little leery at first about buying something from Ted.

So without bringing up old sores, without going into the past.

I ordered a strut tower brace from ted a few weeks ago. He told me he was going away for a week or so and would send it to me when he got back.

To his word, he sent it to me when he got back. It came in two shipments, was packaged nicely, and is about to be installed.

I give Ted a five star rating for this transaction, and hope all his others go this smooth.

TED is the man when it comes to things like that. i know him from like 3 years ago. he came to my house and picked up a front spliter. He didnt have enough so i was like dont worry about and pay me when ever. a few weeks ago i wanted to get somethings things from ted and ted was like i'll ship it in a couple of days and dont worry about the amount because i still owe you the money. With out me saying anything to him.

I have to say thank you to Ted as well. I bought a set of sport seats from him. Not only did he give me a hell of a deal he delivered them to me at my hotel in Atlanta. Big ups to Ted

That's actually not true at all. I just didn't want this guy to know where I lived, so told him I would go down and bring him the sport seats. Well, when I got there, I didn't really feel like stopping, so I just opened the hatch on my mercedes and kicked his seats out the back @ 30 mph. What was it justin, the drivers side that was run over by the truck? Anyways, thanks for the money.

Josh- no problem on the hatch. You got lucky and the 968 I happened to steal it from was also gaurds red.

. . .and Carlos-- I don't need to work on a car to break it !!! Hell, Josh just let me DRIVE his silver rose and it blew up the next day, LOL.


Okay, that last one really is true.

Well, I'm a KCWS member that has dealt with Ted and will vouch for him. I traded a set of hard pipes for a 930S steering wheel, and was very happy with the transaction. Ted, the steering wheel wound up on my wifes 928, you don't happen to have another one that I can put on my 951, do ya? lol

Regards,

I have bought from, sold to, and traded with Ted with no problem whatsoever. He's a good egg.

Scott-- if I had another one, I would keep it !! I wish I still had those hard pipes as well

Skip-- you know you buy stuff from me just beacuse you want to see what 'interesting' packaging design I will come up with next.

Seriously though- thanks to everyone on this thread- and tom for starting it. All the transactions I have done with you guys have been my pleasure.

It has actually made me think that a feedback forum may be a good idea here. Maybe if John thinks its a good idea, he can add one in the area with the member-member for sale and wtb sections. . .

I received the fogs Thursday. I'm pretty happy. The buckets are in excellent shape. Now if I could only find out how hot to cook these lights in my oven!...
