Default Boy-go-fast?

I have been on this web site everyday for the last 5 months. I have heard what seems like nothing good about Boy-go-fast on ebay. So i will be blunt here.. I say lets all rise up against this guy and buy nothing from him until he sells what is in his pictures, calling people back when they have gottin a bad part and answering the phone/fax/cell/email or whatever when someone has a problem. This kind of salesmenship is not honest and we deserve better. I will not buy from him and i will tell other people to BEWARE! Sorry to go off like this but it drives me up a wall.

Im afraid I can't get on board. I bought my kit from him and got what I paid for in a timely manner. Everyone has different experiences though.

Just thought there should be a second opinion. By the way I have said this same thing at least a dozen times here.

I have done well with his kits and service and one day response by email. I will be placing an order with him today for piston rings. I can not claim his status as an angel but as an honest businessman selling me the product he advertises I can vouch for him. I may change vendors to a bit more pricey one just to get to better quality.

Filestyle, lennyharp, and deacon, I've got to say that I'm with you. They have always responded back to me within a day. The kits were cheap (I bought 3) and I got what I paid for it. They work and I got them fast.

I'm with them. I ordered the engine kit and I got a complete engine kit. No problems or hassles. I can't say anything bad about the guy at this point.

With most vendors, if you send a nasty, mean, abrasive e-mail to them, they will NOT get back to you.

I am not accusing anyone of doing that, just speaking in general

Like I have said B4 I plan to buy a HT, chengine just to see how it's made and maybe some useful part's for my weedwacker ride project. This thread goes to show you how each person's experience with the same seller can differ greatly. sometimes your tone can affect the service you recieve. I have read a lot of feedback on e-bay and one thing I did notice was a lot of people with little or no mechanical knolege" buy theese kit's and this is not a kit for an ammature hobbiest. Other buyers feedback reply to others neg. feedback was simply. "Not for Dumb People" LOL I always ask questions b4 I buy anything on e-bay and the 3 e-bay merchants I have contacted one of was boy go fast, either did not reply or did not answer my questions, well enough for me to come up off 200 bucks at this time. lol but I'm am anixous too. hehehe Jimbo...
