Anybody close to Chris@FsP?
 
Several months ago I sent a message to Chris about planning a GTM TT build for this year. Part of the plan was to fit the VR38 plenum. In the meantime, I bought a used plenum from the UK and had it shipped to FailSafePerformance for fitment tests. After finding out FailSafePerformance closed down in October, I asked Chris to ship the plenum and that I would be happy to cover shipping costs.

Months passed and I still don't have it. When I contact him (PM and even on Facebook), he would tell me he hasn't had time, hasn't shipped it, etc. I just found out tonight he removed me from his contacts on FB, so I messaged him again tonight (last one never got a response). Thanks to a member here I have his number, but I have not called him yet.

$500 comes a long way, and it appears he has SpawnAero'd on me (already lost $300 on that ordeal).

Seriously, I don't get what's so hard? Ship the my part, and I be out of their hair. :confused:

[02/16] Chris apologized for the delay, shipped the plenum, and provided a tracking number. I'll update this thread with photos once I get the plenum.

[02/19 Intake plenum arrived! I would like to publicly apologize Chris@FsP for my tantrum. He acknowledged my apology message and I will keep him posted with the build this summer.

Thanks everyone for your feedback. The dream is slowly becoming a reality!!! :driving:

Sorry to hear. Sounds like he is avoiding you, but we can't say anything yet.

Hopefully you get in touch with him and it turns out that his life is upside down and is the reason he could not contact you... instead of something worse, I guess?

I don't car how upside down your life is. You can find time to simplely ship back a package to someone. Especially in two months. OP, sounds like you'll have to count your losses on this one. I don't see how people can to this to each other. Never caring about the next man.

Yea it stinks... another former sponsor whom I trusted after seeing the work he did on his customer's cars, appeared to have good feedback, responded to all of my questions, but then shuts down and leaves me in the dark. He even has a GTM turbo'd 350z.

He definitely spends more time on FB than I do by posting lots of status updates and baby pictures. Surely there is time somewhere in between postings ...

That sucks man. I hope you get your stuff back. It's understandable if he's going through a lot of stuff but you have to be on his priority list at some point. Some people just shutdown when things get rough and leave their business responsibilities out the door. Unfortunately, they don't think about how that affects other people.

That blows. Sucks that people can be complete douchebags like that.

There is only one thing you can do... post his phone number in this thread. :rofl2: (seriously, you should) This guy is clearly dodging you.

I would definitely try to call him. Facebook and PM can easily be avoided but try to get him on the phone. Call him every day if you have to.

If he does not ship your part, post his number and let's all call him. Squeaky wheel gets the oil. If we all squeak, it will sound like a roar. It is all about doing the right thing.

Thank you for your concern, everyone. Chris wrote back to me apologizing for the delay. He said he FedEx'd the part and wished me good luck on my project.

I'll keep everyone posted once I get the part... with pictures!!!
