hellion, I need you to take a measurement of the bar itself from end to end basically from each mount tube. so I can compare it with measurements of bars here.

This is not a open group buy. That means when ten people are commited the braces are paid for and shipped. I never stated this was a open group buy. You need to read the faq on group buys.

oh ya and for all the bay area peeps I can deliver them to you this weekend seeing as I am going to the bay area for the fourth of July.

seeing how you had mentioned delivering to the bay area over the weekend, i assumed all was well with the 10 requirement, you need to update the current list of buyers to avoid further confusion.

and no, i do not need to read a faq on group buys, thank you very much

I mentioned the delivering to the bay area last week when I announced that they were back in. There had been ten people waiting but some of them flaked. Until people speak up, so I can get an actual head count, its kind of hard to just post a list. Based on the fact that people tend to be very flaky in the group buys. As you see, I did not bring a set to the bay area and yes I was up there till tues of this week.

djaphex · 07-07-2005, 10:48 AM

well then, people need to realize that $146-151 shipped for struts that work on all engines, including the CA, is the best buy on braces they will find and they need to hurry up and get on this or else they all will be missing out, and i wont get mine, so everyone GET IN ON THIS

hellion240sx · 07-07-2005, 07:10 PM

kok well the bar itself is 35 inches and from plate to plate its 49 inches

millelu · 07-10-2005, 09:49 PM

i ordered these a few pages back on this thread, just got them installed today and wanted to post and let everyone know they are looking good and fit great.

Tko21 · 07-10-2005, 11:01 PM

hey drift, are you still trying to get us the s14 struts?

hellion240sx · 07-11-2005, 11:02 AM

o btw the other strut bar i had rubbed the valve cover, dont kno why tho?

240menace · 07-11-2005, 04:32 PM

i knew i saw these braces before

bobcat · 07-13-2005, 11:40 AM

I already paid, and I have been waiting for 2 months and im getting tired of waiting. This is a great deal on stb's I dont know why more people dont want in. Oh btw, did u get my payment? If you did, have u sent the stb?

ok folks , like I said before there were ten people but they were not patient when the braces went on backorder. Now there are not ten people but I am going to talk to the supplier and see if I can open it up for the current purchasers. Due to lack of interest overall this may be the last time these strut braces are offered. I cannot get people a good deal, if they are not willing to wait or get in on a good deal.
P.S. yes bobcat I appreciate your patience, I wish a few other people out there had been willing to be as patient as you are.

djaphex · 07-14-2005, 01:22 PM

regardless of the circumstances, i requested a refund monday and you have not replied

Ya, well I have been busy, excuse me. I am sorry for not getting back immediatly. Fact is I am trying to get your strut braces for you know. I will have a answer tomorrow.

djaphex · 07-15-2005, 09:10 PM

today is judgement day, struts or money? whats it gonna be

your gonna get your struts, but get off this judgement day kick. I am trying to do you a favor and all your doing is hating. When I get back from Chicago,on thurs your braces will ship. (My Uncle passed away thurs night and I have to fly ou theret this weekend)
This is why I don't like doing group buys anymore. There are some of you, that fail to realize, that this is a favor, for you guys.

djaphex · 07-16-2005, 03:14 PM

i'm not trying to be rude, pushy or "hate" but i waited for a response for a week, and this GB has been months and you dont seem all that interested in informing us to what is going on, you dont post list of buyer's, you dont return PM's, and you mislead some of us to think you were going to deliver on the 4th.

i, and many other people active in this thread, have gotten impatient. you could have had the courtesy to post and state you were going to be out for a week or whatever, if you got this organized more and split the batches into different threads, maybe more people would pay attention to it.
i appreciate you trying to make up for the difficulties by sending me the struts, and i hope in the future you have more successful group buys.
i'm sorry to hear about your uncle

look man, I do respond to P.M.'s as far as you thinking I mislead you on the 4th I was hoping things would come together . That is not misleading you. I have been doing many of these for a long time. If you think you can do a better job you try it. I am not going to do group buys anymore . Why because your attitude proves its not worth it. Ya you . Fact is most of the newb's of which your are one do not understand these things. You guys were not around in the days when getting anything could take up to six months!!!! Your all a bunch of short attention span, impatient, I have to have it nows. Why because you all think the world exists to cater to your every whim.
It doesn't get used to it.

djaphex · 07-17-2005, 02:58 AM

wow wtf is that, i try to turn a negative situation into something progressively positive and you insist on fucking going off and flaming.
this shit was so fucking unorganized, i'm not the only fucking person who has said something about the wait, or the service.

Here is a PM you sent me when your next batch came in on 06-28-2005, 11:33 AM;
"they have arrived , so if you still want them let me know , I could bring a set up with when I come up for the fourth of July this weekend."

Tell me that is not misleading

then after i send my money and ask when you are going to ship them; 06-30-2005, 03:55 AM

"Dan this is a group buy and its product that I do not make or stock myself. So that means I need to collect from everyone before stuff can be shipped."

After THAT load of bullshit you gave me, i began to get impatient.
not once have you mentioned how many people were left, how many stb's you have or anything. all you said was "people flaked" "we need more people"

just cause you have been here since 2001 and have over 3k posts doesn't make you some fucking forum genius.
dont put the impatience blame on me, i asked for a status report and you just sit there twidling your thumbs looking at the computer screen thinking for excuses, you have the fucking batch but you want to be sure you get you large share of profit out of it so you let it sit there and bullshit the people who have put their money in and waited.

you just sit around and reply to unnecessary posts but not fill my request for the refund.
i'm not going to waste any more time for this stupid ass group buy cause you don't deserve my money, i will file a claim with PayPal if you do not send the refund as i asked LAST MONDAY.

djaphex · 07-17-2005, 03:01 AM

dont bother sending the stb's or replying to my post, refund my Paypal account and forget this GB because you let it die.

S13 Charlie · 07-17-2005, 11:55 PM

You guys need to chill and stop giving D shit. I was in on this GB when page one of this thread began. Sure it may take some time, but like everyone else, I got my stb's and i was happy. I can't think of anyone who has had a bad deal with D.

hellion240sx · 07-19-2005, 11:41 PM

yeah im still just looking for an answer too. not bitching, but just saying. havae a good day.

twong85 · 07-20-2005, 01:00 AM

I got in on the very first gb on these last year and all I can say is the stb's are great for the price. People have to learn to calm down and be patient, they even delievered them personally to me when I was at a park for a bbq so that's the kind of dedication you're getting from him.
With that said I think its just time to stop offering these stb's. He's had many successful group buys but its obvious some of you don't appreciate the price that he gets for you since you just jump on his case every chance you get. The fact that he's posting at all lets you know he hasn't run (yes that does happen sometimes). Some group buys last a very long time since ppl like to jump ship. Some people acting like an ass doesn't help the cause.

He is making NO effort to get more people on this GB, which leads me to believe he really doesn't give a crap about this one.
I sent him a PM over a week ago asking for a refund and he didn't reply, at least I tried to keep it to a personal level between me and him, so I have to post on this thread to get his attention and he insists on making some public scene about it and saying crap about me, how he hates people like me and shit like that.
wtf kind of service is that
it's poor enough to not reply to a refund request, but to start saying "oh i can't do these anymore because i hate dealing with short attention span impatient newbs like you"
don't defend his honor because he showed little respect to you. he has already lowered himself by avoiding the privacy to keep it to a personal professional level. instead he acts like a child and blames everyone but himself.
