OS30GK Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 THIS IS THE LATEST THAT I HAVE RECEIVED FROM PAUL AT STS. Funny how James doesnt reply to me even though i receive an answer from Paul... Hi James. The guys down here are just not impressed James, they really are not. Unfortunately ACPT and StS have had their reputations tarnished over this one. StS Australia in particular has been hurt as there will be no further repeat business from this group on any product I would suspect. Please expedite the successful conclusion of this deal. Thanks, Paul. ----- Original Message ----- From: James Martin To: 'Street to Strip' Sent: Friday, November 07, 2008 8:00 AM Subject: RE: RE Marc PALMER Drive Shaft - Skyline GB for Australia Sorry for the late response Paul, i have been dealing with Mono and just finally got back to work this week. I am trying to find out what happend to the ones that were not delieverd yet. I have already started to make new shafts for the ones that did not recieve anything yet. I am pushing these through the shop as fast as i can an i am hoping to have these done and shipped out next week. Marc Palmer driveshaft will be shipped tomorrow as it was sitting down at the balance shop and nobody contacted us to pick it up. We are going down there today to pick it up today and i will have this one shipped out tomorrow. James Martin ACPT Inc.

OS30GK Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 this just now from Paul Hi Marc. This is very frustrating for us all down here. I have had slow service from ACPT before but, NEVER anywhere as bad as this. The AUD dropping was bad enough, no one had any control over that, but there is absolutely no excuse for this tardiness in service. All I can to is, in a very embarrassed way, continue to apologise, and keep persisting on your behalf and all the others in this deal. The problem is, that ACPT make the best CF shafts in the world, they have the best prices, and unfortunately they know it. I have tried doing business with the other two CF manufacturers, but believe it or not there service is consistently worse, and their prices are much dearer and they do not have the expertise to do custom jobs that many of my customers want. Fortunately the Company I use for the 1pc Aluminium Shafts, (Powertrain Industries) have terrific products, terrific service and terrific prices. Regards, Paul.

OS30GK Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Funny how a tailshaft for a group buy which they get hounded for by ME via telephone conversations still got forgotten and left at the balancing shop, never tried to ring up and ask "hi mate where is that shaft we sent you to get balanced, owner wants it!"even when i whinged and whinged about it not being delivered. Lying dogs!

Willo Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Times up. Sounds like my driveshaft hasn't even been made yet so I'll take a full refund. I'll pm my account details tonight.

OS30GK Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 got confirmation of my tracking number last night. Seems as though the other shafts Willo and Mr Keets are still being done as i got given no tracking number for them.
