I just looked @ his profile page and he hasn't been on in over a month, thats not like him. I truelly believe he will make this right, b/c as stated above, he is a stand up guy. I just wish that he would do it quickly so that his reputation doesn't get to the point that it can't be made right. I know my dealings with him have been nothing but the best, however I know that doesn't help you guys with your current situation. GL

Yuda · 05-11-2010, 09:07 PM

Yeah he is a cool guy. I ordered the shim tool from him last year and he called me and helped out with using it and any questions. That's why I chose to support him and buy from him again. He should atleast communicate but since he isn't that just adds to the conclusion he ditched us. I mean it's only like $40 bucks but I'd really like my braces more than the money. I'm pissed at my self for not ordering these last year.

WISH ONE · 05-12-2010, 11:55 AM

what if something happened to him?

jr_ss · 05-12-2010, 03:37 PM

I know he may be a stand up guy, but he owes me money as well. I've been patient and I understand things come up, but keep in touch and let me know whats going on. He's been very helpful to me and for that I am greatful. However, it's been the better part of a year and still no refund. Not to mention he is extremely hard to get ahold of. John, please make this right...

so paypal isnt gonna refund me the money since its outta the 45 day time frame. im trying to work around it considering how many people are having problems with him. i really wish hed just refund us or give us our stuff.

240Zfunahollic · 05-15-2010, 10:17 AM

hey Yuda, and anyone else having this issue get with me because I'm having the same thing going on with paypal and the 45 days. I'd like to have my money back. I have done everything I can outside of flying to his address and finding him. Thankfully, I got my shim tool in the mail this morning from Pat @ custom steel so I can FINALLY finish my head work. Thank you Pat

bardabe · 05-15-2010, 10:20 AM

John is a Good Guy, I really don't think he would do you guys wrong just because I'm sure there is an explanation behind all of this. I'm pretty sure its something very important. but either way, I'm sorry all of you guys are going through this. but just like if something like this was happening to me I'd like someone to help me out. Luckily I have one set of these sub frame braces in stock here at my place. whoever is in SoCal and wants to come pick them up at no additional cost to you as long as you can prove to me you already paid John for them I'll let you take them. PM me for further details

*Jonnie Fraz* · 05-16-2010, 01:40 AM

Man I am sorry to hear of the problems that you guys are having with John. I have done work with John and helped build one of the prototype shim tools. I will go out on a limb and also say he is a stand up guy, and I truly hope nothing has happened to him.

Yuda · 05-24-2010, 02:31 AM

i would be surpised that if something did happen to him that someone wouldnt know about it ad spread the word somewhat.

hardest240owner · 05-24-2010, 02:51 AM

hey you guys having problems..i ordered my braces almost 3 months ago..march 2nd to be exact and paypal didn't refund me either. i payed with a credit card and called them up they reimbursed the money back to my credit account no problem. so definitely try that. good luck

240Zfunahollic · 05-28-2010, 09:27 PM

called his number that I found cached on a google page. His message now says that he is closing his business due to terminal illness. Also said he was working on his final orders for everything he is backed up on. I left him a message to PLEASE call me back or just give me my money back but no word back from him. His number is 949.891.1710 give him a call to see what you get.

240Zfunahollic · 06-14-2010, 12:26 PM

Yuda · 06-30-2010, 01:32 AM
