You cannot keep pounding that drum after 3, 4 , & 6 month delays. If it was a week or two that would be OK, but these guys who have been waiting months is just ridiculous. You are still giving updates for 2 group buys ago. By my count you have anywhere from 12-15 guys who have paid and see no reasonable time for delivery and still starting new group buys.
People here(including myself) would like to do business with you because of the fact that you are such a good guy as everyone says, but your service skills are killing me. You continue to pass responsibilty to the painters, to the parts being backordered, etc...
Why can't you see that people want to work with you but you have a million excuses for why they are not getting the parts. You took in 2 weeks ago another $18,000 on a group buy when you are still finishing another up, then you opened that one backup for another 8 guys for part 2. I have this behavior in the contracting business, and I am afraid for what will happen.
It would be nice and go a long way with these guys if you would just own up to your responsiblity here.

Another form of excuse, I can picture him tap dancing around his computer and laughing at us from down here in Florida.

What pisses me off is that first of all my kit is ordered with no paint. Simple case of recipt in , add shipping address and send. No paint, no unpacking and re-packing.
Then I find out old matey has an unpainted kit he don't want with an m5 rear. Quad would'nt you just hook us up? I notice the list of orders I did 'nt make even though mine would be the quickest to fill as its not painted!
How long has adam81osu been waiting? I ordered mine in february.
Unlike pooperscooper I have the resources to ensure I don't need an alias to hide behind. I can deploy in the US in 48hrs to get some straight anwers if need be. If I don't get my kit by months end and I've told Tony, I will simply have my people track him down and get the money from him. Trust me this will be no problem at all.
I also note the business is for sale? These testimonials will devalue any good will in his asking price. All I want is date for delivery and I will piss off. Simpler than me opening the war chest.

not really sir I have been working hard without lokolokos infamous thread
it did not make any change what so ever, it didnt change Bmw's exporting
schedule nor body shop's.. once again the hundredth time its all about
parts availability and body shops timing..
today for example I sent out 2 full kits for tommorow delivery
it took 7 hours for body shop to polish and detail the painted bumpers

I dont bring excuses those are the true facts dear Calton.
everything I say is true but seems like people cannot understand this.
I keep repeating myself for the same reasons. Please see my last post above
and see that we are working everyday. I have nothing more to say.

Ok, Tony...
PLEASE think about telling people it's BMW's fault...
I have some very good contacts in Munich and all I say at this point is: Think about Vegastrashed's comment above!!!
Stop telling poeple it is the factory that delays...
We both know the truth, don't we?

I gotta agree. 11 posts under the account and, with the exception of the "Wassup!!!...yo yo yo" thread you started on the welcome forum, all have been directed toward quad_m. I'd hate to see your IP get banned by the Moderators, as it would affect both this and your primary IDs. Lots have been spoken on this subject by those affected by it - the purchasers. Let us on the sidelines simply observe and allow the dynamics of business to run their course naturally.
Well,
I see nothing wrong here.
would have done the same, since the history shows that it "doesn't make things any faster" when complaining under your real name...
Pooper is only adressing the issues here.
No problem at all.
