Right?

Smart, but cùnty.

And if you really had a great product, I'd feel bad, since they make a bunch of sub-par products, that was just d-baggery

Exactly. Because of their well documented quality issues, I was most likely not going to buy anything from them. Because of this little stunt, I'm 100% for sure not buying anything from them ever.

What a pile of BS.......this is beyond poor business practice!

theDreamer 09-27-2013 09:38 AM

Wow...ok, who can I report this to because this is a bunch of BS. This has to be illegal business practice.

Where are they located? State AGs usually love deceptive trade practices.

If they said, hey, we're moving and we don't want to move all this shìt, so we're having a sale, that would have been noble, or at least not the scumbag approach... Still kinda amazed...

Exactly. You can have a sale without being a ****.

Adding it to the forum just in case PWJDM tries to take it down, but here is the original ad they ran, emailed out, etc.

theDreamer 09-27-2013 09:52 AM

And here is the text he wrote on FB and such:

WE’RE SHUTTING IT ALL DOWN!
To Everyone out there

Pico Rivera, CA 9/20/2013
Its been one hell of a run for the last 11 years! We kicked ***, and made automotive history with what we did for JDM. From all of us here at Password:JDM, we are collectively sad to have to say it, but we're shutting it all down! We wanna give thanks to all of our fans, customers, and all the people who believed in us. We're at a point in our life where there are other things we'd like to do, driving every am to Pico Rivera to slang JDM parts is no longer one of them. I am about to become 37 years old now, there are other things i'd like to do as well. Therefore, its time for us to move on... when you can choose to leave, why not leave on top? Anyhow, with our current stock, its going to be a while to clear this out. The faster, the better... thats why we are kicking this one and final clearance sale!

Oh yeah, to all the fellas with the PWJDM tattoos, wear that **** proudly! You are forever part of the Password Family, and like all things JDM, you are exceptionally rare. I will always remember you guys for what you did for us, many thanks, give us a call, and we'll hook you up with more swagg!

To all of our 152,000+ facebook fans... we'll keep the page around for ***** and giggles... follow us till kingdom come or until M. Zuckerbergg decides to shut down FB himself! Many thanks to you guys as well.

It has always made me smile when I pulled up to a random car meet somewhere and see a PWJDM part on a car, or a T-shirt on someone's back. A very special thanks to anyone who has spent a nickel or more with us. a nickel was the price of cheapest item we ever sold. i believe it was a used bumper sticker, and in hindsight, i think we charged 4 cents more than we should have.

we'll be around to ship out every last single order.

signed>>>

Mr. PasswordJDM!!!
you know who I am!!!

That's just shady on their part. My feeling is they'll get to have a real "going out of business" sale soon once this gets out.

I don't even care about that. What the owner put out, saying he has a family of PWJDM people and that he has to move on... THAT'S what I think is the àsshole part

It is time to take this guy down, this is such shady BS it has to end.

Felix 808 09-27-2013 10:06 AM

Not that I was ever interested in anything they offered, but I would never do bussiness with such a company :thumbsdown: $.02

DEpointfive0 09-27-2013 10:38 AM

I'm going to forward this thread to them

Please God, let them come in here to try to defend their actions. I promise I'll eat all my vegetables and do all my homework. Amen.

simota1 09-27-2013 12:18 PM

im going to take off my PWJDM license plate frames take a piss on it and burn it..... :shakes head:

wackjum 09-27-2013 12:23 PM

Anybody from Texas bought anything from Password JDM from this recent marketing gimmick of theirs?

vividracing 09-27-2013 12:54 PM

Whoa! Didn't see this one coming, I was on a mad dash to get parts too. This is a weird one

Zbrah 09-27-2013 02:12 PM

Guy probably sold his business to a different owner.

Wiggins3377 09-27-2013 02:27 PM

anyone see their recent post on Facebook? Wow!!

theDreamer 09-27-2013 02:29 PM

Wow....they are just digging themselves in deeper.

Zbrah 09-27-2013 02:44 PM

Video tape the ceremony and send it in to them marked R.I.P.

P.S. Here are the remains and include some burnt ashes. (and add some liquid!)

What prompted that post from them on fb page? was it the link from this thread or from other ppl posting on their fb page?

People have been ripping them on FB. I'm sure that prompted the ill-advised picture.

theDreamer 09-27-2013 03:18 PM

Yeah, it has been a nonstop negative message on their FB page from people. You get the occasional person who says it does not matter and it is fine.

gurneyeagle 09-27-2013 03:21 PM

Why in the name of god are you guys getting so worked-up about this?

What difference does it make whether you get a 10% discount on their sh1tty parts because they are going out of business or they are moving? A discount on sh1tty parts is still a discount.

Everybody is now a consumer lawyer? Who really gives a rat's arse. LOL!

There are more important things to worry about in the world guys. :tiphat:

Zbrah 09-27-2013 03:21 PM

Someone should p/s out the word haters and replace with pw:jdm back on their fb LOL

Zbrah 09-27-2013 03:38 PM

I don't think people care so much of their discount offer, it's more to do with the shady marketing tactic, the company lied to their fan base and customers about going out of business in order to build up interests for their upcoming re-opening at a new location. That's what creating the back lash because people don't like to be lied to.

Edit: i don't care for their products, I'm just here for the drama while waiting for the word association games LOL

simota1 09-27-2013 03:45 PM

that is so fawked thats a striaght up f*ck u to the consumers lol i really like that idea of P/Sing it back to say password jdm

kenchan 09-27-2013 03:59 PM

maybe change to Password:FU2

:icon17:

ka24king 09-27-2013 06:05 PM

Lol wow I almost fell for it haha :0

TheGreatOne 09-30-2013 08:44 AM

Well I didn't see that one coming....smooth.

On one hand it was creative, BUT it did sound too much like they were really closing their doors as opposed to leaving us unsure and if they were serious.

I dunno. I have no parts from them and didn't experience the fitment issues so maybe thats why I'm not so bothered by it. I can only hope with more space they do more R & D and get their stuff fitting right.

GaleForce 09-30-2013 08:57 AM

I recently bought the Password JDM cooling plate from Fred Beans Parts. The fit is way off. Not even close. Customer service is non existent. Fred Beans gave me several ways to contact Password JDM and not one response from them.

I will post up photos of the issue.

That's funny, since homie over there at Fred Beans told me that they've been revised and fit fine, and if they didn't he would take them back and I wouldn't have to **** around with the manufacturer. Are you implying a dealer lied to me to make a sale? ;)
