Warning! Dealercostcaraudio.com

I made the unfortunate mistake of placing an order with these clowns. They have great prices but they don’t want to send out your order. I ordered an Alpine IVA-W505, JL Audio 13TW5, JL Audio HD600, and a set of JL Audio C5-650 Components for a total of $2021.98. Not a bad deal at all. I placed this order well over a month ago and I called them after 2 weeks. They told me that Alpine was holding up the order as they are behind in production. They told me it would ship out in one week. I found out later that this was a lie. Several other vendors such as Crutchfield don’t seem to have this problem nor did they confirm that Alpine was behind. 2 weeks after still no order so I called and told them to delete the Alpine head unit and send the rest of the order. They did neither after 3 days. I kept after them and sent email after email promising to ship my order. I canceled my order and I got no reply. I called them and no answer. I called my credit card company up to do in inquiry and reverse my charge. I emailed them the preliminary letter and they finally sent me a order cancelation notice. I did a search on these guys and there are tons of complaints with this same situation. Evidently they have some kind of shady way of getting the equipment cheap to resell so they hold up your credit card until they source your stuff. Some people claim they got used or refurbished stuff that got damaged in shipping.
Granted this wasn’t my smartest move but we all look for good deals so I bit on it. Just passing this along so none of you have to go through this crap. Don’t fool with these clowns, their crooks.
Here are just a few of many complaints on these guys.
