I think everyone is always happy with my Tee shirt group buys!

I bought an intermittant wiper stalk from Paul Martin. Exactly what I wanted for the price I wanted. What more could I say ??

I bought a used MSDS Y from Bob Birk. Thing arrived like one of those ACME boxes in the old Warner Bros. cartoons. Anyway, I had a short delay in getting the money order purchased and sent, and I told him as much. He said "no problem" and then he shipped the thing anyway, before I even had a chance to get the check in the mail, so the pipe and my check passed each other in the mail. And oh yeah, the part arrived well-packed and in the exact condition he described. Better, even.

Definitely A+ and a straight up guy, in my experience.

On another note:

This is probably too petty to name names, so I won't, but I think it's instructive.

The "incident" was that the seller and I had made a deal on an item. Before we "shook" on it, I asked if it would be OK if I waited a couple of weeks so I could put it on the next months credit card bill. He said, "sure, no problem."

Two weeks later, as promised, I delivered the money via Paypal, only to have it returned with the note that he had sold the item out from under me without so much as a "how ya doin?"

Now, the good news is that he was honest with my money. The bad news is he didn't hold up his end of the bargain, and that's a breach of integrity (i.e., really not cool, in my world). His "word" means about nothing to me, now, even if I did get my money back.

I relate this story only as an example of what I consider bad behavior. If you are a seller, I think you need to be aware that there's more to a "good" sale than everyone walking away with the right amount of money. If I shake on a $20 deal with you, I expect to get $20 even if somebody else offers me $30 the next day.

Oh yeah, SVT Pete! I ordered SS brake hoses from him. Well, I PM'd him and we had the paypal done in about an hour. That was Wednesday: I had them at my door on Friday! USPS Priority mail (he was covering shipping, his choice) and prompt action by Pete worked out great for me.

I know I'm forgetting others but not many

Here are my three:

Elky...A+
Mesh GB. Very friendly and easy to work with!

99RedSVT...A+
Organized the Ebrake and Shift boot GB with Redline.
Paul took a great deal of time to make sure that the product was quality. Also, he took the time to write up a how-to with pictures (OK, so I took the pictures ). When there was a problem he wrote to Redline and kept on top of things.

AJUSA...A+
Great people to do business with. There was a mix up on my first order, my plug wires ended up in Plano, TX (suppliers fault). When I reordered they were extra careful to make sure I got them, they arrived within three days.
