As of today, I have filed a claim with paypal, because I still haven't received my bolts yet. Here's a quick update, of what's been going on.

September 17th: Mikey tells me that he was able to find replacement VSKF bolts for my wheels, and even sends me a picture of him holding a couple of them. I'm happy, and it looks as though he is going to come through this time.

That same Saturday, I ask him if I can expect to have the bolts in my possession, by this coming Friday. He tells me that he is 90% sure, but that he will have to check with his uncle. He says he'll call me on Monday, or Tuesday to confirm.

Monday goes by, and so does Tuesday. No call, not text. So, I call him on Thursday, and he tells me that everything is on schedule, and that shipping on Friday, is a guarantee, and that he would call/text me with the tracking number.

On both Friday, and Saturday I call Mikey, and he doesn't answer, or reply to any of my texts. I'm really getting upset at this point, but there is nothing that I can do. So, I wait.

Sunday the 25th (today). I call Mikey up 3 times today, with no answer. At this point, I'm pretty fed up, with the way this situation is being handled, so I log onto paypal, and file an item not received claim. After doing so, I text Mikey, telling him what I did, and that I would drop the claim, when I would receive my bolts.

He replies to my text stating: "Yeah, go ahead and do that then!!! That's koo I left town Saturday my grandpa is about to pass away so I have been with my family." So I ask him, if my bolts were shipped on Friday or not. I also ask him that every time he is about to ship out my bolts, something dramatic happens. Last time his car was stolen, with my bolts in it. This time it's his grandpa. He tells me that the bolts were shipped, he just doesn't have the tracking number yet. Stating that he didn't have a chance to talk to his uncle or cousin, before leaving town to go be with his family.

I explain to him, that I have been calm, and understanding throughout this whole ordeal, but I needed my goddamn bolts. He then tells me that he has come through every time he told me. Which isn't true at all, because he has lied many times already, here are some examples:

1. He told me that my bolts would be done within 2 weeks, if not faster. We are now almost at 2 months.

2. He tells me to paypal him, while the bolts are in transit to him, so that they can purchase the gold, and have it ready by the time my bolts get there. So I do. 2 weeks later, he tells me that they haven't bought the gold yet, because there were some complications.

3. He tells me that my bolts have been shipped out already, and that they should have already been there. Then, when I tell him that I haven't gotten anything, and that's it's been over a week, he tells me that his uncle still had the bolts at the shop!!! He then says, it's a good thing though, because some of the bolts weren't up to par, and that he would have them re-plate them. This is before they ended up disappearing along with his "stolen" vehicle.

As you can see, it's hard for me to believe anything this guy says at this point. He always has a reason, or someone to blame for not getting the product out, and I'm sick of it. The shop that is fixing my wheels, is cool enough to have stored my wheels for as long as they have. I even gave the guy a little extra cash, for a storage fee, even though he didn't ask for it. Now, imagine if I really needed my bolts by a certain time, for example I wanted to enter into a show. I would have been fucked. If you decide to go through this company, remember that I am not the only person that has waited a long time, or has had problems with this company. As stated before, I'll update this once I get my bolts. IF I get my bolts. I'll share how I feel about the quality of the work, but I cannot in good nature recommend this company, due to what I have gone through.
