Bad experience with 3G BIKES

[tikiharl]

I just got off the phone w/ some idiot from 3G bikes. I ordered and payed for via paypal some forks on June 11. Called them two days later to make sure they had my correct mailing address, I was then informed they wouldnt be in till the middle of July. I told them OK that was fine. Called 16 July to find out the status and was told shipping container would be here on the 23rd.Called on the 28th and was told they would have the container on the 1st of Aug.and they would ship immediately and send me tracking number.Well today is the 13th of aug and still no part. I called them a few minutes ago and the little punk a#@ tells me he will have to refund my money cause in his words "things got screwed up". This kid has no idea who I am, how is he gonna refund money. Surely I am not the only one w/ forks that were supposed to be shipped. I have been very polite w/ this kid until now when he hung up on me. An e mail explaining the situation would have been nice, heck even a phone call. But Nooo.Now I will have to file a dispute w/ paypal to get money back. I would be very careful in dealing directly w/ 3G bikes. It is a shame because thier parts look really cool.I pride myself in being very patient and laidback, but this has got me really ticked off.ONCE AGAIN BE VERY CAREFUL IN DEALING WITH 3G BIKES!!!!!!!!! :x


WARNING!!!!


Thx for letting me vent :wink:

OH ,now I am really tourqed. I just found out from pay pal that since I was patient in waiting that they cant help because it has been over 45 days :x
I now have to go thru my credit card co. to dispute.AAARRRGGG!!!

I ordered a pair of flame grips from 3G about a year ago and it took F-O-R-E-V-E-R to arrive. The ownwer (Gary) was very cordial, but always had a story as to why they weren't in yet. Due to the delay, he threw in a 3G jersey and weird looking hat.

I didn't like the grips anyways and threw 'em out. The shirt and the hat have never been worn.
