Subject: In recent dealings...

Over the last month or so I've sold a bunch of '02 goods here on the FAQ and had generally-good experiences. The following folks communicated well and paid as promised... Esty (a couple of times, sweet as always), Al "Blue Devils", Bob Napier (a real gentleman), "Pinball81" = Dave (a patient guy), "dirk2602" = Dirk, "josh72ooh2" = Josh (having fun with his new '02), Matt Cantine, "illegalsmile" = Mike (Kentucky cool), Mike Wooldridge (who knew enough to get that Ti clock working), "vic74" = Vic and "bills2002" = Bill (who was able straighten-out some moldings which were damaged in shipping). Thanks to all.

Additionally, I purchased a 121 head from Aric (asvander@...) which was exactly as described - nice! I also bought a few items from Pierre a while back, and he, too, is a person I'd work with again (so long as we don't talk politics (chuckle)).

On the less-than-ideal side, I purchased an item from Andrew Goodnight in which there was some discrepancy regarding the item; while some of the responsibility was mine, he refused to offer any credit for an unusable (to me) item which - whether 'right' or 'wrong' - I did not find his efforts to be in the good spirit of the FAQ members. Use caution.

Subject: Big ups to Tischer!

Got a boat load of parts from Tischer today and just wanted to say that they were often much cheaper than anywhere else, great service and decently quick with shipping. I have no complaints. Turbo lockstrip for 10 bux per... another forum member wanted 25 per... shame.

Much thanks to Chris M. in Charlotte NC (not sure his faq name) for the 4 speed. How many people offer a free transmission and deliver it part of the way? Had to force gas money on him. A genuinely nice fellow; cant wait to see his S-14. Dave V. in NC

Subject: Re: BlueDevils - good experience

Great and prompt service, helpful advice, and a very professional rebuild and refinishing (better than new) of my REPA seatbelt parts. He also provided a very complete set of NOS installation parts! Thanks Al!

Subject: Great dealing with Blunt

I recently had the pleasure of dealing with Blunt.

It should come as no surprise that he provided great communication throughout the process, and super-fast shipping.

This was a small order, but it wasn't treated like one.

Subject: h8bills goes above and beyond

h8bills definitely went the extra mile to make sure I was happy with the value of the parts he sent.

Great communication, careful packing, and very fast shipping.

I'd definitely buy from him again.

Subject: Brandon73fjord (Brandon Browder) : Negative Experience

I posted this a while back about the rust and shoddy work on a 1970 2002 that I bought from Brandon Browder in 2005 in the Dallas-Fort Worth area of Texas. I recently realized that he has been posting here under the username Brandon73fjord. See the following post for my description of how I was scammed by him.

http://www.bmw2002faq.com/component/option,com_forum/Itemid,57/page,viewtopic/t,292077/highlight,beware/

In addition to the bad bodywork, I found many other things wrong with teh car. Just about everything with electricity running through it needed maintenance, if not replacement (I actually found wire nuts on the car). He told me that the engine had just been rebuilt. I replaced the engine a few months into owning the car because it burned a quart of oil every 600 miles. When I tore apart the "rebuilt" engine, I found deep scores in the cylinder walls. If any rebuilding had occurred, it was clearly limited to the head.

Everything else on the car seemed to fit the same MO; shined up for the sale, but crap underneath.

In retrospect, I might have been smarter about looking over the car more carefully and not taking an "I can fix that easily" attitude, but Brandon clearly misrepresented the truth about the car. He claimed to have spent "over $10,000" on the restoration, but clearly paid as little as possible for terrible quality work.

I might have chalked this up to his inexperience with old cars or 02s, but Brandon clearly misrepresented the car and later refused to make any of it right or return any of the $4,950 that I paid for it. Further, when I complained about it briefly on the board (without even mentioning his name), I got a few harassing phone calls and no regret.

BUYER BEWARE. I wouldn't buy parts or cars from Brandon Browder (formerly "BrandoninDFW", currently "Brandon73fjord")

FWIW-

I just bought my first part from Blunt. He helped me ID the exact part that I needed and got it to me quick. Payment was easy using Google Checkout and communication was excellent. I look forward to doing business with www.BLUNTTECH.com again.
