Beware!!! Rock Solid Toys

Did he send your check? Told me the same still waiting.

 

Nope! I sent my address to him again and he said he would send it out on feb 8th. I texted him Wednesday saying I haven’t received it and he said he’d look for the receipt for tracking info and that he’d talk with his bank when he got home to see if it was cashed.

didn’t hear anything back so I texted him again yesterday and he said the bank hasn’t gotten back to him(calling bs 100% there) but he’ll send out another today(Saturday). He also said if I get two to keep both of them for my troubles, I think he was saying that to make it seem like he sent it and to put him in a better position.

I’m going to wait until the 9th to see if it comes in, if not I’m ready to go off on him. This is asinine.

I want to take legal actions but it’s not really worth it for the $300. Almost want to get as many people together as possible and take legal action as a group(idk if that’s really possible but it’s got to be.)

 

Well, I still haven't received my 3-link kit, which was ordered on 8/19/20 and paid in full ~$2700. I was in communication with Wyatt last week and he told me everything would be ready by the end of the week and that he would drop it off to me. I told him that I was off on Friday and could meet him somewhere or pick it up from the shop. I texted him Friday morning to let me know what time works best. He said "Ok will do Alex". Then nothing. I called several times and could not get a hold of him. This morning I tried filing a credit card dispute but Citi says I'm beyond the time frame for a disputed charge. So basically all a vendor has to do is run out the clock with Citi's timeframe and they won't take action. I'm going to run it up the chain with Citi but their dispute dept was closed today so that'll have to wait until tomorrow. This sucks. I don't want to pursue legal action but $2700 is a lot of money to me and I will if it comes to it.

 

My CC awarded me in the dispute. Still no word from RS on what happened with my transfer case. What a shit show. I hope you guys get your issues resolved. Can’t believe this guy.

 

Thanks for the update. I had to write and mail a letter to Citi explaining the situation (because it was beyond their 60-day window to file a dispute online or over the phone). I'm really hoping they honor the dispute. I should hear back within a few weeks. I asked Wyatt for a refund, after the 3rd week in a row where he told me my parts would be ready for pickup at the end of the week then ignored my texts and calls when the time came. Always a fresh excuse on Monday when I called him out, but numerous times insisted that things were close and would be done by the end of the week. What a load of crap. He completely stopped responding when I asked for a refund. So disappointing.

 

I bet there's enough people that have been screwed in here that you all could file a police report in the area were he is in business and file to the Better business bureau

 

It might come to that. If the CC company denies the dispute I'll fight it as far up the chain there as I need to. The next step will be legal action. I will absolutely not roll over on this and take a $2700 loss.

 

no way i would either, i would probably fly out to cali just to give the asshole a piece of my mind.

 

Demello off-road “acquired” wyatts truck.

 

Uh yeah he isn’t sending shit. I feel for everyone involved in this. I’ve read through the thread and this has scam artist written all over it.

 

@JDEMELLO guys need some answers in here.....

 

I figured, saw them post pics of a stack of 40s on IG. I guess he isn't using that cash to complete orders that are on the books.

 

***UPDATE. I AM A DUMMBASS. WE ALL GOT SCAMMED***


I wish I could share in here without stirring up the shitstorm. I know money is hard to lose for anyone, but at this point he is trying hard to not go full pelfrey. if we push it most people will lose money, if we let him try to climb out of this hole we may all actually get our shit. keep that in mind. this is what happened to a lot of pelfrey “investors”

im a longterm rst investor, and i have also given wyatt a target to hit like others with big investments have done, and we are all hoping he hits it and can deliver on all the smaller items also and can stay in business to service the work i hope he finishes someday.

i am not making excuses, just saying we should try to let him make things right knowing the issue he is in, there are worse scenarios that could become the outcome.

If you have cc chargebacks and dont think you can get your parts dont use my advice to hold off on those, i am not a lawyer or financial expert...

 

I purchased a kit from rst in late 2019 and was lied to every time I managed to get ahold of them. Never received a full kit and what I did receive, arrived over the course of 6 months. Ate my losses but should have let the community know.

 

As an investor, did you vet RST? I would think one look at the email inbox would show a significant issues within the company.

 

I've been trying to give RST the benefit of the doubt. I was thinking that because my order is smaller (compared to a full build) that he could make it happen. The kit was ordered and paid for in August 2020, more than 6 months ago. I was told numerous times (at least 4 in the past month) that my parts were almost ready, waiting on one thing, etc, only to be ghosted later on in the same day. I even started taking my 4Runner apart because I was assured on a Thursday that everything was ready and he would deliver it to me on Friday. Then ignored my texts and calls on Friday. The lack of honesty and communication is what really bothers me with all of this. I took this business at its word, and bought other parts based on this setup. I have an axle and coilovers, both of which had a 2 month lead time, sitting in my garage collecting dust for almost 3 months waiting for a link and bracket kit. I've exhausted all of my patience. I'd rather get the kit from RST than a refund, but nothing in the past 2 months has indicated to me that there is any intention of fulfilling my order.

 

a investor, meaning i have had a truck there for 3+ years.

and yes he came highly recommended for what i wanted by multiple people.

 

I hope you still get your kit. I can understand the frustration.

 

Sorry this sounds just like Pelfreybilt to me. They also had people saying that they were a stand up business and would never try to steal from the community. If I had money on the line I would try to get it back.

 

Its true, the OG beast was sold. It was almost sold a year ago also but the buyer didnt end up getting it. So a new buyer found him at the last hammers i heard
