Tilt column warning! retro68

So I gave him 2 weeks and now does not return calls. But he makes sure he takes your money. I tried to PM and call to see if he would send a check back with my invest amount for his column. No replies. ....Figures!!

Now I will be forced to see a attorney or a collection agency.

I say he is a rip off artist. BUYER BEWARE!
I have spoke with retro68 before also, he seems like a standup guy. I would think there is something going on in his personal life rather then him trying to rip anyone off. I do understand your worries and I hope this gets resolved with both parties happy.

Btw, I also ddin't know the problems that people have had with Retro68...I actually tried to contact him about a month ago....left him a couple voice mails and emails....never heard back from him?....He's local, I guess I could drive by as I believe that address is his shop?

Dan,
Thanks for clearing up the confusion. I would not be able to sleep if I took someones money and did not send them there column.

GGhost,
Its really to bad you were treated that way. I understand your anger. If you still need a tilt I will be glad to help you out.
Kevin

I have to agree with Kev here, when I was buying the tint kit from Scott he was very helpfull and took the time to advise me on the colors of kit available, and would always reply promtly to any enquries I sent. As soon as I sent payment my kit was on it's way and arrived about a week later. I noticed that the first person (re the tint) having trouble getting hold of Scott was highperf4x4, and over the last couple of months or so he has been heard from less and less...the last contact I had with Scott was this email dated the 15th June...

Hi Nigel I have been involved with my business during the past two months. Ihave not been on the message board but will get to this for you as soon a mytime comes available. Thanks Scott
I will have to reserve judgment here, and prefer to beleive as Kev said, that he may be facing personal difficulties that have prevented him being around and on top of things. I can honestly say that the Scott I delt with was not a conman.
I to hope that the problems that others are having get resolved promtly for all concerned.

Actually my problem is on-going too. He did finally send me the tint and claimed it was an error with the postal service however, it did not fit correctly. Specifically the piece for the back window was almost 1/2" too short. When I contacted him he told me he would send a replacement that I could trim to fit. That was over 2 months ago and I haven't gotten a repsonse since.

Whether or not he sounds like a stand up guy on the phone isn't important. It's his lack of motivation to take care of his obligations that gives him negative marks from me. He's probably spread himself too thin but that doesn't give him the right to take peoples money and not deliver what was promised.
