FedEx attempted delivery but I was at work and they require a signature. Will be picking it up on Monday.

The quality of the paint work on these door handles must wildly vary because the ones I received on Saturday had several issues. Both handles had several spec marks and one even had what looked like a small bubble, or area that was welling, that had a pin hole mark as if it had been purposely deflated. After a month of waiting, poor communication, and all the non-stop drama on this forum, I probably shouldn't be surprised but am still fairly disappointed. I shipped mine back for a refund today.
Buyer beware. Despite the cost, lengthy wait time, and claims of workmanship, this is nowhere near professional quality. The convenience of a core swap may be there but it's not worth the hassle and let down. Hopefully others have had better luck with these. |

Thanks for your honest review. But as I stated earlier in out private conversation, the "pin holes" you mention is solvent pop. Happens when the ambient temperature is high and the final coat flashes before the previous coat finished gassing off. It's a common problem that is fixed by sanding/polishing, if needed, another coat of clear. And as I've stated in the past, I had tried using three "professional" shops to do the painting for me but they came out terrible.

Anthony the return Core Door Handles have been ready at the Fed Ex office for several days now, I received notice they are only holding these till monday.
I sincerely hope you plan on going to get these before they send them back to me as I spent $30 shipping these to you. Can you please get the handles and return the core money ASAP please. LMK- Thanks. Bryan

Fedex attempted delivery last Friday, I was at work, they didn't leave it because you requested for signature. I requested for the package to be held at the local Fedex that same day. I went by the local Fedex on Monday before I was headed out of town, it wasn't ready for pick up. I'll be back in town tomorrow evening as I stated in the PM earlier this week. FYI, for those that are shipping the handles back to me. I highly recommend USPS Priority, ~$10-13, 2-3 day shipping, and USPS have personal lockboxes at my complex. If you request signature, expect a delay as I'm rarely home during business hours.

How many more times do I have to say that I'm out of town. Just because USPS/Fedex/UPS says they delivered it doesn't mean that I received it. They can either leave it in front of my door, toss it over my patio, or leave it in the lock box. And if I'm not mistaken, you opened up a Paypal dispute the same day you dropped the package off to return to me. Now that my balance is negative, that delays the core return refunds as I have to transfer money from my bank into the Paypal account which takes 3-5 business days. Update for the others waiting: I'm still out of town, flight is delayed and looks like I won't be back until Sunday evening. I'm off all of Monday so I will finish dealing with the refunds and drama then...hopefully my Paypal account is fully active again due to the dispute. Outstanding core refunds: -Russw007 -OTW-Z-Boy -IPLG37 - Pending pickup from Fedex - I called and notified them I will pick up on Monday and they have no issues extending the hold date if needed. -370_o Outstanding order: -CjBinder - Replacement driver door handle
