    Nope! no mention of that at all. I have seen other stuff on ebay listed that way as well. At least then you know what to expect and if you don't want to wait you don't bid.

    I agree, a little customer service goes a long way. Not much in the way of customer service here though!

    Were your headers a custom order, or were they just the ones he had listed? I know he gets a lot of work from people seeing his headers and asking for some changes? By the way, what are you building? Got any pics? Im just curious.
     
  10. Any luck getting your headers? Seems like an awful long time waiting...and this business of building them after you buy? Bullshit.

    quote "hi,
    dan king here, i have always taken care of my obligations and right now I have other sets of headers to get out as well. You might think that you are the only one who ordered them off of me but you arent. I am doing them in order and doing my best to get them out. I have told all of my customers that they will be out as soon as possible and everyone has been cool about it. well except for you. you will get your headers so calm down. call me 619-278-1578.
    thanks, Dan" quote

    What a dick.

    His attitude on here was pretty pathetic as well - guaranteed if you as the buyer were dragging your feet paying he would be pissed or just not want to deal with you yet he thinks he can act that way?

    I think a refund is in order so you can spend your money with someone who will actually supply you with a product.

    What's his ebay name - I'll be sure not to deal with him...

    Industry standard (and if I'm not mistaken...which I may be) federal trade law states that you are not aloud to charge someone for something unless it goes out the sellers door....

    Plus seeing as this guy is on fle-bay it may be a "business" that really isnt a declared business and the IRS need to be tipped off about the illegal income that this bloke aint paying taxes on....(verify my info first tho eh?)

    I aint a dick....usually..unless someone really asks for it...and this guy seems to have a large F U sign out for his buyers....maybe its time the tables were turned...
     
  12. Sounds like Dan King found a way to USE other peoples money for a month before he "manages to get to your order". Its a rare line of work, not everyone can be a total ass and get away with it, talented or not. We should follow Dan's advice and "calm down" after all its only been 17 days - V8 pipes - at one pipe every 2 days they should be done any day now.

    Dan is a good guy. Maybe he shouldn't list stuff unless it's made but if you guys honestly believe no one else builds as things are sold you are stupid.
    It happens probably more often than not with things like this that aren't just bought from a supplier for resale. Can we close this damn thread already?
    My two cents may not be worth a damn but, there it is.

    His ebay is dansfabrication, I have known Dan for like 8 years. i really like the guy. He is kinda young, and he does have a lot going on. When I owned Dirt brothers bmx he was a part time worker for me. One time he took a load of stuff to a contest and sold it. After that i didnt see him for like a month, but when he showed back up he gave me every cent for the stuff he sold for me. My point being, he may not have the best business ethics but i am pretty sure he wouldnt intentionally screw anyone. I called Dan and asked him if he would like me to come over and help catch him up with the orders, and he told me he was pretty much all done. This was like 10 days ago, so Im kinda stumped on what is goin on. Lets hope he finished them a week ago and they will show up in the customers hands in the morning.
     
  22. O/T but maybe you guys could use it.

    Here is a link to the auction. Doesn't say anything about having to build them. And I emailed him during the auction and he answered my question right away and didn't mention a 2 MONTH waiting period then either. Also his feedback is still 100% and guys that bought his other headers say they got them right away. So I guess its just ME he want to Screw! Yea, he is a nice guy! We should close this thread and leave him alone. BULL!!!!

    He received my payment on July 9th. I paid with Postal MO. He is not even giving Lame excuses anymore, just doesn't return or answer calls or emails, and he hasn't been on here much either!

    He's been on here since Jan and only posted 3 times and one of them was on this thread. Not too much contribution to the HAMB so far?:confused:

    Thanks to the Internet,we're a long way from the days when a man shook your hand on a deal and then kept his word. Pretty sad state of affairs. I hope your headers arrive and are absolutely flawless. Keep us posted.
