SPEEDYBENZ Camber kits..Did i just get taken for $279
Ordered one of his kits on sept 29th 2008.
I have yet to get the product or anything saying a delay or
problem with my order.
So i did a search and seen a few disturbing post about his
slow process or even no response to his business transactions.
Maybe i didn't search good enough or am i just impatient? I hate
internet transactions and hope this can be resolved..
If anyone has any info on a similar situation please let me know.
I tried calling his number and it is disconnected..

That's what I ordered. The adjustable control arms. The w208's don't have adjustable ones, and I have the H&R lowering springs with 18's..I have eaten up a set of tires really bad. Its my wifes daily driver and she hauls my son around in it. Well i knew it needed tires when I looked under the car and saw the inside of the tire down to the threads... The outside looked fine, like a new tire. So I did some searching and found this guy..
Ive been doing some thinking. I operate a business (trucking company) and its all about service. I have three contracts, I run three trucks delivering appliances, 2 trucks furniture and I personally drive a dump truck. If i couldn't provide a service I wouldn't do it. I can't say hey i cant make your delivery of your appliance because I am driving another truck! That seems to be the case here. This guy has a side business and blames his personal life for not making good on delivery times. I paid to have them shipped UPS ground, so we'll say it takes a week. He sent an automatic payment accepted email saying product will ship in 2 weeks..I ordered it on the 29th of Sept. Then you have guys justifying his lack of business attention by saying he's busy.. Not good business..

Is it a good quality product I know it sucks to give somebody like this more and more business but I might be in the market for a set of these soon. keep us posted when you get them and get them installed.

I got the kit, he does take a long time to respond, he does this on his spare time, but the quality and material he uses is top notch, the alignment guys were very impressed, but keep in mind it took months to get mine...gl

Same issue here. I ordered mine early in Sept. Received NO answer and then suddenly at the end of sept, I got a "hey, your order is shipping today" email from him. And I haven't seen it or heard anything else from him again since then. Still waiting. I understand he makes them custom and it takes time, but at least updating me would be nice. He doesn't respond worth a *****. Hopefully his product is at least good!

does appear to be a similar product for less $$...quality is a HUGE concern here though. At least speedybnz has some great reviews and comes highly recommended. Dunno much about the ebay guy
