Talon in the shit (again)
 

removed removed

This. Phil asked me to do this when I was dealing with him and to give my real name and there were no problems with communication.

And this, I can confirm that quite some time ago, Phil asked me to remove Talon from the parts supplier thread I had created on this forum.

I'd just like to say that I had excellent service and a quality product from Phil around a month ago (a set of wishbones).

Unfortunately some people seem to be totally out of step with any sort of reality these days, they seem to want everything for nothing and they want it yesterday.

Keep going Phil, don't let the few grind you down ;)

Don't want anything for nothing. I have paid for it. We agreed a price , no delivery, no update, no communication. What would be going through your mind if this happened Steve ? Yep. You guessed it, I have lost my money. Think about it.

Did you agree a delivery date?

Think about what Jason? I made no remark referring to you or anyone else. I was making general remarks based on my reading of Phils post. Any agreements and transactions between yourself and Phil are just that.

How am I to know you feel you have been "done"!!!

No delivery date agreed mate. Didn't think I had to to be honest. Paid my bill as soon as I received it, And assumed that I would get my stuff in a reasonable amount of time with good communication. Is 5 weeks a reasonable amount if time ? Or in vmax case, is 13 weeks a reasonable amount of time with no parts and no communication ? I can't believe that some people think that this is perfectly acceptable behaviour from a company.

Dont drag me into this

Is 5 weeks a reasonable amount of time? I think so, it's not like there are not a million other things that cannot be done on the chassis during that time. I too ordered a set of wishbones from Phil about 4 weeks ago. I remember reading somewhere with him or someone else mentioning it takes upwards of a month sometimes to get parts out. So that was my expectation, so I made sure to order the parts at a stage of building the chassis where I wouldn't need them right away. Is it ideal... well no, but at the same time, the guy is making me a set of parts that I myself did not want to have to make, and with that comes some sacrifice as well as cost. I'd much rather have to wait longer, then having Phil disappear like 90% of the parts builders, and leaving me wondering "Now What?" Just my thoughts, not saying your wrong to be mad, but in my book waiting on parts for my hand built car ranks as a "1st World Problem" and something I wouldn't stress to much about.

I fully apologise vmax. I have got you mixed up with the v8 files. So sorry. :D
