Even though he has what, 15 feedback already on this forum and multiple people have ordered from him and gotten their merchandise, my experience has been FAR FAR worse.

Back in April I paid for a custom set of SS Emblems for him. Took him a bit to finish them but I didn't mind as they were a custom set of emblems, a 1 of 1 set.

On April 17th he sent me pictures of them as you can see here on his site:

He sent them off a couple weeks later. By the end of May I hadn't gotten them so he said he would file a claim and get working on another set. So I waited and waited,because I assumed he was legit given the amount of people who had ordered from him and gave good reviews.

He finally gets done with the second set and shipped them out on Wednesday via USPS First Class. Insured for the proper amount and also requested a signature. I get my mail today and the package has arrived!!

I open it up and what do I find? Nothing. He sent me an empty package with nothing but 2 pieces of cardboard inside meant to make it seem like the emblems were inside the package.

I sent him a PM asking him what's up, but I figured I would post this first publicly before I got a response. He apparently can produce and ship out stickers, keychains, even other custom parts yet for whatever reason he is unable to get me the product I ordered 4 months ago.

I got a response from him on his cell phone. He said he is on his way to NY but that when he shipped it, it wasn't empty. That's the only thing he said.

Starting to look like, given the fact this was supposedly the second time he sent it, that I'm out my money on this.

Here are the pictures of what I recieved:

I erased the street addresses of both mine and of TPI383 but left in the city/state/zip as well as our names.

This is the exact same PM I just sent you.

Just to to NY. I tried to send a text message but for some damm reason It keep giving me a error.

I was about to say the same thing..

WTF.... 1st You dont get the 1st set of emblems shipped long ago. So I get another set made. Granted it took awhile to get my cnc guy to get em done yes. and I keep you upto date on when he keep me uptodate on how close he was to making another set. (and they cost me outa pocket AGAIN)

Now you try and say you get an empty box.?? I shipped 3 sets out that same day. Havent heard back from the others yet on how they like em. Ive never had a complaint or nobody getting Emblems or the TA Guage rings I shipped out also.

Sounds kinda weid to me "your" the only one soposablly not getting the parts.

They were wrapped in butches paper and boxed up. Shipped First Class mail and insured so you would have to sign for em.

At this point id think something fishy is goin on myself on your end of the mail system. I ship **** all the time and never had a problem with anyone receiving stuff.

Out $$? from My eyes now you have 2 sets of emblems your tryin to say you dont have.

Ive NEVER had anybody NOT get anything. now an EMPTY BOX? WTF?

You have my # call me 2morrow. Or PM me your # I'll call you.

There wasn't any butcher paper whatsoever inside of the box, like I showed above. Just a piece of a USPS box folded over with 2 pieces of cardboard inside. The first set you shipped, which I didn't get, didn't you file a claim on it like you said you would?

As for the second package, the way I got it, was that the way it was shipped? If not then someone opened it when it was in transit.

I have no idea what's going on. All I know is the first time I never recieved anything and this time I just recieved an empty folded up package. (Can't really call it a box because it's just a piece of cardboard folded over)

And yes, I will call you tomorrow as soon as I get out of work.

They were wraped in the paper and stuffed between the 2 center pieces of board. I couldnt file a clain on the 1st set because I can't find the INS# receipt. Prob tossed it when cleaning the dest off. I dono it could be around. Every since you clamed not to receive the 1st set Ive started to keep em all in a box.

As I said I've never once had this problem. Ask anyone on here who has dealth with me. I may be late on getting **** out in the past but "EVERYONE" has got what was shipped.

Im not one to rip anybody off **** ive gave free stuff away that Ive had layin around.

These last 3sets of Z28 emblems were late so Im givin the guys all free Dash emblems once Ken (my CnC guy) gets to that section of the list to make em.

I can file a claim on this and Give you your $ back Or have him do one more set. Then Mail these one Certified Mail via UPS or FedEx or who ever you want. DHL, etc..... If 2 shippment from USPS went astray Id say someone between me and you prob have some custom emblems. :shrug:

[MavViper]

Sent you a PM, I won't post anymore here cause we're sorting it out now

[TPl383]

Got it. Back at ya... Will hop back on later to update this.
