    OP made a mistake, give the guy a break.

    OP, In business reputation counts especially as a sole proprietor. Folks will want to see pics of your own actual work before doing business w/ you and you can bet they'll be validating the pics. Show us what you got.

    Other questions that come to mind:
    - Does the price include you shipping product to me?
    - What's your turn around time on getting my gauge cluster back to me?
    - Pics of the LED's you have in stock?

    In all honesty, I'd never buy from this dude. Rod is a good guy and has been doing this for a while, so for this guy to come on and steal his pics and claim as his own, get locked down and then try to re-start back up WITHOUT any pics just goes to show that he's either a) never done this before or b) nor really bright enough to take photos of his work AND c) Has zero business sense nor respect. And again, he can't follow rules apparently. Just another standard garage vendor trying to make an extra buck, and actually, if hes a marine at pendleton, he's doing this out of a barracks room. <----I'll give him the benefit of the doubt though and assume he's living off-base doing this stuff.

    I don't like seeing stuff like this, to many new 'vendors' have been popping up, undercutting established vendors on TW, putting out a shoddy product for cheaper than everyone else and then disappearing after they make a bunch of money and peoples stuff starts falling apart.

    /rant over.

    30 dollars for a BHLM man? If people help I still ask 75 for the labor and time involved to do a BHLM correctly. I know exactly what you're doing and I don't approve. Volcom is right. Vendors have been established on this website and you have no proof that you can do quality work, IF you even can do this work. Please go back and try again. TacomaWorld strives for respectable vendors and honest members. Not saying you aren't, but you haven't proven yourself here.

    Report him if you want? He is fairly unheard of, put up an ad for business that used another member's pictures, got taken care of by mods to fix that situation, and is back trying to drum up business again - without pictures of someone else's stuff.

    I don't see him getting much business. He's already been tried in the public opinion forum.

    I don't see anything wrong with him existing here..? If he's not breaking rules, he's not breaking rules.

    Apparently doing your own means you can start your own business doing it.
    This was what, less than a year ago? If you've done ANY others since then I will be mildy surprised. The fact that you haven't posted ANY pictures that aren't your own, nor responded to the first thread or this one just goes to prove my points.

    Well, lets be honest here, it was already stated above...after that first thread...and even then...he's got ZERO business as it is. If he hadn't jacked the pics in the first place, which in turn led to us investigating him...he could have probably gotten away with undercutting Rod and doing all this for cheaper, albeit crappier job.

    alright everyone in my defense, i didnt go to jerez's page and take his pictures, i googled tacoma gauges and they popped up and i used them so people can get ideas on how they would like theirs to look. Im not trying to steal everyones thunder by selling my services multiple different mods but times are getting rough out there.

    And for people that are interested, you would pay for the shipping to me and for the return. As far as right now the return time would only be a couple days.

    The reason im barely on here is cause ive been deployed overseas 3 times, never really had a constant internet connection. and now when im getting closer to getting out of the marines im trying to put my hands and skills to work and make a few extra bucks.
