I need someone with an eBay account to contact vice industries about their handlebars.

Just tell them you would like a phone number, to talk to them on the phone, and ask what their hours of operation are, to answer a few questions about ordering a set of bars.

They were very responsive, until they had my money. Now I can't get any response. Odd, their feedback rating is 100%, but I did my transaction outside of eBay, and they fucked me on that one!

BEFORE YOU CONTACT THEM, Please post here, so 15 people don't ask the same question!

Thanks for the help!

I bought my bars from them and and like you said it took awhile to get ahold of them after they got my money. I just kept sending emails and the eventually got back to me. I don't think he checks it often. Their bars are good quality though.

Did it take over a month? They told me they would be done on a Tuesday, I paid them on a Thursday or so. Then this came up and that came up, I just want to talk to them, that doesn't sound so bad to do, just talk and say hey what the fucks up? If he told me it would be 5 weeks, that would be fine. But to say they'll be in the mail in less than 5 days, then not respond over a month later, isn't the way business should be handled.

I got mine in about a week. He was actually pretty cool. I gave him a pic of my bike and he used it for some of his auctions on ebay.

I think I remember seeing it. I'd even snap him some of mine, if the fucker would get them to me! I might just ask for a refund and invest in bending equipment... But I need to talk to him first.

So basically you want someone to try and get ahold of him through ebay/email and get his phone number for you?

MISpiritRider
10-25-2006, 11:15 PM
yep. PLEASE!! I need to know when I can contact him too, since we're 3 hours ahead here in MI.

I'll see what I can do. I'll write them and tell them I bought from them before and a friend of mine would like a set bu they dont have them for his bike listed. I'll do my best to get a phone number.

I finally got a hold of my rep, that bastard has been putting off going to pick them up after they were fixed! They have been "swamped" fabbing for cruizer performance and for themselves, so they can't take care of the customers who have already paid for their shit!

So, tomorrow he's gonna pick them up and ship them next day.. I guess we'll see in the next few days... I might still fab my own eventually.

They should ship them next day for nothing to you for the hassle. Hope you get them soon.

MISpiritRider

Everytime we have an email fued he bumps up the shipping, they are supposed to be next day air. That's probably half of what I paid for them!

They were supposed to overnight Friday, still no bars this Wednesday... I called him again, he can't get a good black finish. So he's overnighting a set of chrome (YUCK) bars today, I'll cut into them with the internal twist setup and send them to my guy to have them powdercoated. THAT FUCKER! Never called, never emailed, he's got all my contact info. He said he didn't want to send them out looking so bad, that's not the way they do things at Vice Industries. But to be 6+ weeks late on delivery is no big deal.... ??????:pissed:

Did he give you a price break for all this bull shit??

MISpiritRider
11-01-2006, 07:46 PM
NOPE! What a bastard. I won't order another set from him... I am sure the quality will be just fine, but the customer service is absolutely horrible! I hope his business fails because of his customer service. It is one thing to have a problem, let the customer know what happened and why it's late, it's another to make him hunt you down and twist your nuts for answers!

I used Paypal, the transaction went through actually only 5 weeks ago. I'm gonna deal with what I get. If it's not what I wanted, they will go for sale up here, and I'll build my own. Now that I've got such a cool chick, she's got a tig welder and a manrel bender and I'll do some nice clean welds, make my own set!

jajara
11-01-2006, 09:02 PM
Well go to paypal, and put up the complaint, they will get the money for you 1000%. It dont matter howmany weeks, but you do waht you want to do, i would not let him slip.

jajara
11-01-2006, 09:05 PM
The paypal is going to take the money from him, but not give to you right away, there is where you fight him.
trust me on that one, you will get the money or the product in the next 5 days. I deal with that all the time, just be very fast with the replys to paypal, cause you are gona be chating with pAYpal and him, so the paypal will be like...hm.... judge judy?

MISpiritRider
11-01-2006, 09:11 PM
It'll be fine, my chick can sand blast the nasty chrome off, I'll pay another 20 bucks and have them done the way I want them... Or like I said, I'll fab my own.

jajara
11-01-2006, 09:13 PM

MISpiritRider
11-01-2006, 09:33 PM
Pricing them out, even though I'm not getting what I want, the chrome bars are much more $$ than black ones. I am getting a good deal. They will most likely be for sale before too long. The only difference, I'll ship them when I say I'll ship them!

jajara
11-02-2006, 07:59 AM
