I've bought the Brabus exhaust from Harris back in July. But ended up Brabus NA didn't receive the payment for Harris's overdue balance until 2 weeks ago.

I think Harris is trying to sort everything out now, wish all the best to him

saridi - you actually received the product??? If so, then great to hear. I really do hope that Harris gets his stuff straighten out, if it was really an honest mishap. He was a great guy to deal with and very helpful.

On the other hand, I couldn't wait any longer and my patience wore off so I had the CC company reverse the charges.

We don't have to. OT took care of that for everybody. (j/k)

Next time when you quote prices remember that this is a predominantly US forum and do your conversion.

If that was just for the wheels you said with tires and shipping, yes! very high. You could have saved a few grand if you shopped around more...

The tax (GST/PST) and the duty is the killer.
