Phoned up R&A today to get a center cap for my wheels which keep falling off, he asked where I got them from, i responded Dubmeister, he then said he wasnt going to sell me the part!!!
"People like dubmeister undercutting him bla bla bla"
I stated how his problem were with the dealers and not me, and ive shopped many a time with R&A, still wouldnt budge!!
although i can understand where hes coming from, attitudes like that just annoy me.
-
The idiot is loosing out twice because of his attitude. Doyle!
-
This kinda thing makes me a bit angry! I can see why he'd be a bit annoyed first off, but when he winds his neck back in he'd surely come to the conclusion that if he's being undercut it's because he's charging more than the other places... Then he should lower his prices??!
And another thing (sorry to go OT here kinda) but when you phone for a price for a part, and they say 'what's the best price you've had so far?... Oh well I can beat that...' etc..... GGGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! JUST SELL IT AT A GOOD PRICE TO START WITH!!!! </rant>
Normal service will resume.......... Eventually!

yeah and in the meantime one of my expensive wheels looks gash! :angry:
-

Seems you didnt just catch him on a bad day!!!
-
So the guy is saying he wants to lose a sale, because he's losing sales ? What a f*cking genius.
-
He also makes some really bad "show" cars, all money and no substance, :evil:

I hate R&A design, I had a bad experience witrh them 4 years ago seems they are still the same!!

ive had worst experiences with dubmiester. i waited 3.5 months for coilovers i was told were on there way to me, kept saying he would refund me. In the end i had to get my credit card company to get the money back.
the other guys at r&a dont seem too bad, can get the parts to you in a day or so. Shame the boss has a big attitude problem.
-
They have always been on a different planet to just about everyone else with their project vehicles. Always get them in PVW though, funny that.
-
different planet! I agree painting a Limited engine block blue, changing to wrong bumper, making a realy mess of converting it to RHD need I say more!
-
Most of my bodyparts came from either RA designs or Venom. The venom boys are top class and have always treated me well, RA designs have supplied me with two splitters (smashed the first on on a grass mount not so long ago) and have always delivered promptly with the parts ariving in A1 condition. But then again ive not ever had to have a phone convosation wth them.
**EDIT**
Worst experences ive ever had was with bigboystoys. Took em 4months to deliver my strut braces (despite me canceling the order twice which they failed to process and charged me anyway) and when they did arive one had to be modded to fit, another went on easily and the third wont fit any model Mk2 VW unless you cut into the rear suspention beams (and im not doing that!)

I dont wanna sound like a cock, But they recentally re-designed the fabric they construct there parts out of. My first splitter was fiberglass and total sh!te, Snapped the mounts all the time, But in there defence they have now started using the same plastic as the original Big bumpers and its fiarly flexable too.

I agree with fielder on the Vemon they are all great down there
