    Couldnt find a place close by that sells "AFE" filters, so I decided to search a place in Canada for one, and I found these guys. I have to say, the guy I delt with was VERY nice. But nothing went right with my purchase.
    -First: On April 12th or 13th (not 100% sure) I had to pay $87.26 for the filter, when the other store he deals with sells it for $39.99 + tax. I didn't know this until after, but meh.....a few bucks never hurt nobody
    -Second: he accidentally charged me an extra $107.96 onto the already over priced $87.26 to total $195.22 on my credit card. I called him and he figured it out that he used my card number by accident for another buyer, so he did a refund, and in a few days it was fixed. So that was ok.
    -Third: although I paid so much, it was not going to be shipped any fast way. I was told 5-7 business days from when they send it. Is that even possible? Guys on here sent me parts through USPS and it took like 3-4 days. WTF?
    -Fourth: it was originally suppose to be shipped out that week so I waited......and waited.....and then when I called they said they didnt even get it yet, so they couldnt ship it. I was told it would get to them on May 8th. Wow, that sucks. Oh well. Once I get it I will be happy right? hmmmm
    -Fifth: When May 8th passed I didnt get an email/call. So finally on May 11th I called them. They couldn't bring me up in the system because my province was saying "NV" instead of "NS".....really? So after that I got a hold of the right guy, and they didn't get the filter yet, couldnt send it, and didnt know why. AWESOME.
    -
    So here I am now, May 11th, with:
    -an overpriced bill on my visa
    -No idea when they will get the filter
    -Likely over 2 weeks from when I will get it
    -25+ long distance minutes on my cell phone bill
    I know this could just all be bad luck, and maybe the guy is a good guy, but holy fucking christ, its not that hard to buy a damn air filter anywhere else is it?
    Im sure in the end at least I can say I own the most expensive AFE filter though [​IMG]

    ya but I dont want to make them get something in then not buy it. They might be a bad seller, but I wont be a bad buyer. I might think about it if I could even find another one though. But I cant

    So now May 27th, I finally called them and got a refund. They said they didnt even receive it yet and it would be another 7-10 days if I kept it. VERY poor job by them. I will say though, they seemed nice so I will be giving them another try someday, but just not sure what for

    Ya they were really good about it and check everything out. I think it might have been just the AFE that was the problem. Im getting something else through them next month when I decide what my next upgrade is, so I will see then

    Oh my dear god, I literally cant believe this, but I called 2 weeks ago and they refunded me, but it didnt show up on my VISA yet. This has to be a record for most fuck ups on the planet
