Many thanks,

they use a Dynapack as always.... the end result was hurt feelings

So here is the real reason EZ wanted his money back. Like I said, once he fell in in love with Mynes header there was no way he was going to allow RMW to repair it.. He said he going back to stock . Ya sure he was.

A bit off topic but the credit card company did get my money back for Jans code thrower. So now I'm offically on the "list" for one of Mike's staight headers!!!

This is from EZ off the Mynes header thread on their site which for some isn't there tonight. Funny how that happened.

at the risk of overstating the obvious......

you guys are killing this site.

i really don't think there's a way to say what you're saying that hasn't been said. enjoy your rides and post what you've found to be good. we all know what you think isn't good.

Killing the site?...no way! If it wasn't for "us vs. them" this site would be like a library.

lol.

We wont see ANYthing first hand, just more avoided questions. Why not just come out and say. "I messed up, sorry"? No, lets blame the customer instead.

What a joke. I am so happy to be done with all this and pray I dont have any more problems with this header. Pm for details.

Funny how you can make fun of those that spent a lot of money and ended up with a malfunctioning part and the threat of no real cure. Funny how you can just laugh over the lies that were handed out on who really to blame. You laugh at a guy who actually followed up on who was really to blame with actual phone calls and discovered he was lied to, so he took the correct steps to make it right.
I remember when you were worried whether you would even be able to keep your Mini due to financial situations. I remember when you felt so shafted by Webb. You think that was all that funny then?
EZ was taken for just another stupid consumer by Jan. EZ showed that he wasn't. Hopefully others will see what he did and not hesitate following suit.

LB, the "list" was no joke to those that were on it. Funny joke for you and the RMW groupies maybe, but not so funny to those that felt that if they were to in fact stand up to the bashing one gets when questioning RMW. The "list" is in fact that. It's no joke. As I remember there were two RMW customers on that “list”. Those two were one’s who actually questioned RMW ethics. So, don’t tell me the list is no threat.

WTF is this liist? ....more of a subculture underground thing that I'm clueless on?

Damn... Guess I'm not in the know about the "list" but It sounds like a horrible life changing thing this "list" if it's got Greg all a fuss

if I wasn't on my iPhone I'd comment more on a couple things. Really it would only be about entertaining myself and the readers at this point tho...

WTF
WHERE THE F--K DO COME OFF WITH THIS ****. Shafted by Webb? God dam. The Dealership I worked at closed. Did I lose the lose the car? No. You want to talk crap. How about your little talk to me about the M7 coilovers. You thought they were junk and hoped they didn't market them. Did you forget about that. I bet you don't remember that.

Did you get vendor statis yet. Onasled racing products. You've try to drum up sales for your stuff, oilcoolers, suspension stuff. You knock powerflex bushings and you haven't even seen the things in person.

I'm ready for your answers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your like the fool that stands behind the bully and says "YEA!"

Your facts here are about as accurate as I would expect.
I NEVER said M7 coilovers were junk and I have never even thought that. I did in fact say, to a few including Peter, that I thought getting into selling coilovers was a bad idea. In general Larry. This was before I had even seen them. But you are right. I was wrong about that as they have done a great job with them and doing very well. So much for my marketing skills.

Yes, you would cry about webb a lot. I don't remember a whole lot about it Larry.
I never said you lost the car, not did I ridicule you as to what your finances were about. Truth is that you were worried and I was there for ya with those phone conversations. So, it's hard for me to understand how you can tell Arty not to be a baby about worrying about losing about $900. Don't be so narrow minded.

My Vendor status? I was never going to be a vendor. Why would you say this? Point to a post that I was trying to "drum up sales". I don't charge for most of the things I do for people here. Feel free to ask around.
