There is NO excuse to stop/delete or remove a post or comment, unless it is threatening or not on topic. People talking crap about your product and or complaints should never be deleted or covered up, unless you have something to hide, or do NOT stand by your products.

He doesnt realize the more he does this, the more damage its going to cause, as he is only seeing a small glimpse of what others will, and it looks SHADY as he!! ,

Went to take a look at the 213 thread and vrp/platawhateverhisnameis, I won't say tool since I don't know him personally or have dealt with him but a complete p r 1 c k. His replies are so back and forth laden with excuses or blaming his staff.
I must say op of the 213 thread had way too much patience. After the first few emails I would not even have 10% of the patience he had to deal with them.

You know, I have more important things to do during the day, ( like take care of my customers and delivery what I say I am going to deliver ) but this dude is the worst of the worst.
I have NOT seen onetime, that he or the company, just owned up to the mistake, but every single time after time, he has someone else to blame.

In one of the other Threads , they basically took money from a customer, and then led him on , then after the customer complained multiple times, he refunded the customer the money, and pretty much tried to blame the customer and or someone else in his company.

This is the PERFECT example of why discussion threads like this are needed and created , this isnt just a c63 or w205 issue, this is a ISSUE as a whole, this company apparently has issues in every forum they post in.

Taking the words of the CEO of Victory Road Performance (Phil) - whom yes was banned on here, but now post from his Sponsor ad account - stated " I only post here for SEO purposes "

Maybe someone needs to start a thread or discussion of " Who's been screwed by Victory Road Performance " I bet that would bring things to light.

Having had my own bad experience with a former poster/seller here (Beast aka AskCarbon), I think you guys should also post on socials and review sites like google, yelp, BBB, etc. to broaden your reach.

Bumping as i wish I'd seen this before I fell for this disgraceful company.
Anybody have any tips on how to get VRP to refund me?

Long story short: purchased almost $1300 worth of products for my m156 and after terrible communication from their side including a wait that took 10 days to get a response from them after purchase regarding payment confirmation, I have yet to recieve any update. I requested a refund as it's ridiculous to have to wait 10 days for a simple response and only when I involved my bank have they responded. The response was basically useless and ignored my request of a refund for 2 products that have not even been shipped yet on an order that was placed on the 23rd of March.
