SHObros Garage

I already posted this in the other thread, but I wanted others to see this too.

I'm a little disheartened. Allow me to explain.

I ordered ported and polished intake runners almost 2 months ago, and have been very patient with the wait time. I was one of the ones screwed over by Chris Davey, so after waiting for 1 year just for a refund, waiting 2 months for p&p runners is a cakewalk.

I sent Brian a PM about 2 weeks ago asking if he knew what was going on with the order. He replied promptly, saying (and I quote), "Working on an answer for you."

I then stumbled on a thread where DeDragonKnight mentioned he's the one who does porting for SHOBros. I sent him a PM, just to ask if he had heard anything about my order and if he knew what was going on.

Much to my dismay, Ken (DeDragonKnight) informed me that he hadn't heard a single word about my order. 2 months have gone by and he didn't even know my order existed. So what happened to "Working on an answer for you"? I understand Brian's busy, but is it that hard to spend 10 seconds sending Ken an e-mail, even just to say, "Hey, heads up, I've got some more runners I need you to do. I'll send you the details later." That took less than 30 seconds to type.

I've stood up for Brian and I appreciate all that he's done. I also understand he has a lot of weight on his shoulders, and again, I'm not here to whine and complain about wait time because that doesn't matter. I'm willing to be patient.

I'm just disappointed that he told me he was working on an answer when he hadn't even mentioned my order to Ken.

If he has a logical explanation for it, I'm willing to listen. I'm willing to be understanding. But telling me one thing and doing another... well, it kinda hurts.

Just to follow up with that, I have 2 orders for intakes, one about to go out to someone in New Jersey, I got the order in my mailbox 3 weeks ago, so if you are the person, PLEASE PM ME. The second is from MRCow, and I didnt get a payment from SHOBros, or any word from brian whatsoever. I also believe that brian raised prices further than what I had agreed upon, by a significant amount.

you know guys you should be lucky anybody has anything for the SHO. I also build 2.3 quads and other than used stuff we build everything ourselves, one off stuff. the ones that have orders in and crying about it on here,bashing this guy, all your doing is hurting your chances even more. I know i sure would be going out of my way to take care of your order after you call me a thief,snake and *************. Be carefull

my own shop

And thanks for the lesson on paypal there Sally. It has been around such a short time that no one really know how it works.

Randolf FYI- "Copyright © 1999-2007 PayPal. All rights reserved." That means PayPal started in 1999. Im sure you can figure out exactly how long PP has been around for randy. And you run a shop? Its people like you that make me want to work on my own car, or better yet start my own SHO company / shop.

As a matter of fact, ever since I first started wanting a sho, about ten years ago... I would go on shoshops site weekly, then i find out they go under after i put all this "internet trust" in them. I have read alot of horror stories about them now, and i am happy I didnt resort to them. Then shobros came along... another feeling of... relief, i guess you can call it came along... and now look... same thing. People worried about were their money has gone, no products, and no response from the vendor = quality.

I am going to start my own sho company. MARK MY WORDS.

I ordered swaybar bushings. I only got the rears. he said he would look into it 2 weeks ago and never got back to me. I don't like being ignored. it kind of sucks but from my years on the forum shonutperformance is king. you pay you get your stuff quick or you get a email right away if something has come up.

I get the feeling you didn't actually read anything but one or two words here. I never called anybody a thief or a snake or ***** matter. In fact I even said I value the resource of a supplier.

If he would actually reply to me I wouldn't have to be in this thread at all. I can't for the life of me see why this thread should hurt my chances of getting what was listed as available when I ordered them and paid for them almost 9 weeks ago.

And common courtesy should dictate replying to inquiries from customers.

This thread is dissapointing in many ways.

 

[Brent]

This thread is dissapointing in many ways.

I would heartily concur.

And not the least of which is the deafening silence emanating form SHOBros.

 

[Brent]

No, just about everything is dropped shipped.

Well the one time he replied to me he said they had come to him by mistake and he would be mailing them the very next week.

That was 3 weeks ago. Not a peep since and no tower braces.

I actually had a shipping address concern but I couldn't even get a reply to discuss that.

 

[the4biddendonut]

Shobros has a lot of my money (and a lot of other people's money too) at the moment and it makes me uncomfortable that I can't get a hold of him. I don't personally know the guy, so there isn't any kind of trust between him and I.

I'd feel a lot more comfortable if someone representing Shobros would actually come out and give us some specifics on our orders.

I don't know what is actually happening with Shobros, but from where I am sitting it does not look good at all.

 

[GoofSHO]

As Sean has said In the other thread...I can only be on the Comp. for a limited time. I WILL be getting EVERYONE'S parts to them. I understand where alot of you are coming from, I'd be ****** too!! I have NO desire or intention of ripping anyone off. I'm going through a rough time right now, that's all. I have emailed some people. If you did'nt get an email....resend yours and I will respond asap. I am asking for patience and a leap of faith for a while....I will NOT let you down!!

[Brent]

As I said above, it was the lack of a reply or any feedback that was bothering me more than the wait.

I too respect your issues and the resource you offer us.

But I also needed to know you were still active and alive. The email you sent me yesterday was greatly appreciated. Not nearly as much as my tower braces will be when they arrive though.

Get well.

 

[GoofSHO]

I will be working on my communication skills as well.

[Brent]

Still nothing in the mail......

 

[GoofSHO]

Now that the pain has lessened, and I am getting feeling back in my fingers....People will be getting their stuff soon. ( give me about 3 weeks ( shipping time and all ) I'm 80% back on track!!

[NebraskaSHO]

Any word on the triple A pillar pods for the Gen III? Glad to hear the pain has gone down some.

Stay in there!

So when you ship them will we get a heads up?

Or have my tower braces already gone out?
