Could be good, depending on whether you're a Gynecologicst or Proctologist.

Oddly enough, the mirrors are the only part of the car that "needs" paint. They have battle scars from bugs.

We don't make any money on the painting. In fact since all we shoot is German Glasurit paint products, we loose a little bit on every set we paint. The reason that Dave and I do that is to help people get what they need and get it right the first time. I hate waiting to have things painted and you better believe that a painter ain't in too much of a hurry to do a four piece job to make $40 after materials if he is luck and everything goes right the first time.

Just a good service to offer and God knows we have the facilities and ability to do complete beautiful paint jobs as well. I was thinking that the old Burgundy 1987 S4 chasis we have would look great in Canary Yellow. What do you think Stan?

Hi Dave and Garrity,

Well, I have tried to discuss with you many times through email. Allways the same story, you just stop responding to my emails. You do not recall any shipments to Estonia because the items are not yet shipped out (half a year after you received my payment). The items were 911 manual Aero mirrors with 928 GTS bases.

For further information check my emails sent to you from address assoaltmae'at'hot.ee. After my emails sent from that address started to return (blocked?) I tried to communicate with you throuhg my other address: asso'at'tktk.ee. After you stopped responding to these emails I sent you messages through ebay messages, my user name is there aswell 928boy.

Hope to hear from you soon and have this finally solved.
Regards
Asso Altmäe

That's funny considering we have never blocked e-mails from anyone, ever. Once again, give us a call and we will get this straightened out.

Dave...........your email system is perhaps set to block particular words deemed inappropriate in the USA.

His name maybe the source of the communications issues!

I suspect there is something fishy here. We never said email. Pick up the telephone and give us a call if you can't get thru. We sent a set of mirrors to France to a guy on the French list and it took seven months to get it straightened out and he just bought another set last week. Sounds supect.

With regards to the emails being blocks. I you purchased them, I suspect thru ebay, maybe not, then none of the ebay emails could be blocked.....

HERE IS THE PHONE NUMBER AGAIN: 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733 801-487-6733


We will be waiting for the call.

Thanks,

Garrity

Hey Malcolm,

I think something is fishy here too but who knows? We don't show any income from such a name in any form, paypal, credit card or postal money order (which we would have insisted on being from outside the U.S.) We would like to try and get it figured out but hey, the phone ain't ringin'!

It is a valid e-bay user name and shows a purchase from Devek at one time but nothing from us. A manual kit with 928 bases would be a custom configuration and I do not recall any such request. (I am personally the one that handles the mirror transactions, insuring the kits are complete and ready to go) It is also something we have never sold on e-bay.

928boy, give us a call...

Knowing Dave and Garrity as I do, it sounds very fishy to me as well.

(Hey Dave! Remember that SC kit I paid you for 8 months ago??!! Ship that sucker out to me man! I'm pretty sure I bought a complete '91 GT from you too! Where is it? )

Hello Garrity and Dave

Fishy? We have been though with the payment already. Just to refresh your memory - the item was not an Ebay listing, but I found you form Ebay, yes. I payed via Bidpay since Estonia was then not in the country list in Paypal. You sent me an Ebay listing number I should use in the Bidpay form. According to Bidpay you have cashed the money 06/01/05, I have also forwarded to you their email about this. You wrote me after this you must check this by yourself but never got back. If you want, I can forward emails sent by you, by me, by Bidpay to you again - in case you really have forgotten all this.

I'll give you a call on Monday as you probably do not work in weekends. It just isnt very comfortable as we have night when you have day.

Regards.

But actually it is very nice to read others have had good experiences with them, it gives hope. Actually I had alredy gave up on them, I expect to have problem free business with vendors and I really do not have time to wrestle.
