Rick has not logged in for 5 days now i know he's busy onto moving to a new place, but that does not give him reason to neglect his customers.... Poor Us, Its a shame, Begging for something that we paid for...

I agree. There is absolutely no reason a company should neglect it's customers. Especially for months at a time. I could understand not getting a hold of someone once a month or so but there should always be someone delegated to customer service.

I was told I would recieve a partial refund on my kit I ordered (11/2/10) since I had told him to cancel the order on 3/15/11. I did wind up eventually getting the kit on 4/5/11 but the weave of the CF was messed up so I had to paint it. No way i was sending it back to get it replaced after waiting 5 months though, I just figured Id use that refund money to cover part of the paint bill. Well I still havent gotten the refund even after being told it was being sent numerous times.

Lets wait & see, hopefully its not one of his "Promised Words" again... Im determined to cancel all my order & demand for a full refund if no tracking number is given to me on that day or any other updated info!!
Welp... tomorrow is the 24th and still no word from Rick.
I hope you can get your full refund back and the only thing lost is this agonizing wait.

My friend is on the same boat as you. He's still waiting on the partial refund they agreed upon a while back but nothing yet.

I will be filing a dispute to Paypal tomorrow evening if i dont get any word from Rick & there's no turning back!! I hope with information from previous PMs between me & Rick as well as links from threads like this will support the dispute & hope paypal can force rick to refund everything back...

Question. Why don't you guys just cancel your orders demand a refund and actually do something about it? I mean, if I was in this situation, I would do everything possible to get my money back whether that involves getting a lawsuit, police, the better business bureau ect. I simply would not stand for this. I know damn well these wheels are not cheap and especially not the final transaction price.

I guess I don't know how many actually have already paid this "Rick", other then those noted above, but, if you have, it's definitely not looking good or sounds like it will get better from what I have been reading on here and other forums.

I mean if everyone who is in this same "boat" files a complaint with BBB or another resource, that definitely going to raises a few red flags and get sh!t moving. It definitely doesn't look like complaining on here is doing any justice.

I'm getting frustrated just reading about everyone's problem with this company! Haha . Just wanted to help. Hope everything turns out for everyone!

And obviously there's plenty of other reliable companies on here that sell sick wheels. Not just VIP.

I also think this thread should be stickied.

Just my 2cents

Due to the false date(s) given by Rick time and time again gives them a glimmer of hope that their wheels/refund will be there soon so that their long wait wouldn't be wasted.... that's how it dragged on for so long.

Also, with Rick's good reputation and success over the years into account plus members telling you to wait, he will deliver and some saying cancel your order now is pretty hard to decide.

Up until now, I think everyone is ready to pull the plug on this if they're able to get their money back.

*sigh* GL everyone!

Don't get me wrong... Rick is a good guy when you actually talk to him. It's either he has this crazy cool aura that makes you want to believe in him or that he is a Jedi playing mind tricks with our heads. He was in no way a **** to us or anything... he just wasn't there when we needed him. Especially when it's our $4k+ on the line...

GL abgyak tomorrow! I hope to hear some good news (again). I pretty much gave up...

nevertheless, this deals nothing with a good person.

it means free of charge "with money the friendship does not stop"
he has concluded bills of sale with us, he is to be followed obliged this. this deals generally nothing with the friendliness of a person.

I have spoken with rick also very friendly, he is always friendly.
but I can buy nothing to myself from friendliness and I do not find with more than 4000$ it simply any more laughing to.

Over 110 posts in this thread and Rick is strangely absent. Has anyone heard from him in PM's or otherwise? I'd like to know what he's going to do about this.

Default Spoke with him last week ...

I was going to order Spirits from him and s/w him last week; he also advised me of a 60 day delivery timeframe for the wheels ... just fyi.

I just tried to call him back yesterday to actually place the order and got a voicemail telling me NOT to leave a message. ??? A customer wants to place a $5,000.00 order and you don't have someone answering your phones ? ... returning calls to prospective customers ? ...

I'm glad I came across this thread because I haven't ordered yet. Hoping Rick jumps on here in his defense and there's resolution for the existing customers. I'm a little more than hesitant now.

I bet he would say that he's so busy moving things down to their new place & didnt have any internet connection to log in the forum... Typical Answer!! Lets hope its not & hope there's a very good reason why he's neglecting all of us...

That sounds like a con artist to me.
