Think I have been conned.

Ordered a rear tub from Chameleon-garage.co.uk had no confirmation reply or any contact from them at all. Tried to message them on here but full inbox. Does anyone have any further contact Info for them so I can give them a call? Really sucks that in a small community people are screwing people over.

[vmax1974]

Sorry to hear you having problems hope you get it sorted out soon

[rpjg1975]

Weren't they previously Gilham online?

[RichardH]

I bought stuff from him just before he changed from Gillham to whatever he is now , had no comms etc from him but the stuff turned up

[NeilW]

I have mailed them a few times with regards to bodywork
I use the following email Sales@chameleon-garage.co.uk
Always 'Dan' who responds.

Did you pay via PayPal?

[The V8 Files]

yes def former guilham, he is a member on roadster-builders under chameleon-garage - maybe worth a try messaging him there.

[JasonL]

I think he's overwhelmed with orders at the minute. I ordered a full body kit a while back, got a nose cone so far and last time I emailed, I got an auto reply saying he's in the shop clearing the backlog. I expect (hope) he sorts out his backlog soon.

[NeilW]

Hopefully it all turns out ok, especially with a few people placing orders.
I still need to order some bodywork and to be fair his prices are acceptable.

Fingers crossed for you guys, let us know how it pans out.

[NeilW]

Chameleon garage has just posted some bodywork on eBay today. So there still active at least.

I have to say - running a website with no phone number of address (that I could find anyway) really doesn't instill confidence!

[NeilW]

Have any of you guys had any luck so far?

[JasonL]

Heard nothing back yet.

[james3004]

I ordered some bodywork on the the 19th of July through eBay after several emails to Dan.

He said it was gonna be dispatched and when it didn't turn up he said he cancelled the courier cos he wasn't happy with the finish of it.

Last I heard from him was a month ago saying he's trying to get all the outstanding orders out by the end of the month (September). Since then he's not been replying to emails or eBay messages!

[vmax1974]

Itt seems his website has been taken down now and he has stopped selling on ebay not looking good is it

I tried to take those moulds over a few times as its what I used to do so if he wanted to hand the moulds over to me I would commit to clearing his backlog and he can keep the money he has already taken off people

So dan if you're reading this get in touch

[vmax1974]

Has anyone got an email address for dan lets see if we can make people happy again

A most generous offer!!!

[james3004]

I received an eBay message last night apparently my bodywork will be with me by Tuesday

[Eternal]

I don't suppose anyone has a working email for him that i can use?

Thanks for all the messages guys its nice to know hes still around.

[NeilW]

Just going back through my mails I found he had sent a message from
daniel.gillham@hotmail.com
Hopefully he can be reached on that one to put people's minds at rest

[james3004]

Well Tuesday came and went and still nothing....

I would advise anybody not to use Chameleon Garage.....Very Unreliable!

[norton]

Maybe someone should email a link to this thread to him. I certainly won't be buying my panels from him after reading this.

[vmax1974]

I am in talks with dan so watch this space will sell my bodywork if the deal comes off

[RichardH]

if he was due me money i would jump in the car and go visit him.

[vmax1974]

Really phil jump in and try and take over everything you cant even keep the customers you have happy how abput you step aside and leave it to another person (me) so supply some parts

[vmax1974]

Did not mean to be rude and abr upt but have invested time and as long and the outstanding customers are happy to deal with me (1 while set and 1 blue set) so I assume you know who you are the deal is done

[Eternal]

the website is "down for maintenance" Sigh I guess that's it then I don't think I will be seeing my rear tub or money soon!

[vmax1974]

I will sort you a rear tub when I get sorted out

[wylliezx9r]

Good man vmax. Very good of you to help people out.

[NeilW]

Indeed, great to see that we have people dedicated to helping fellow/new builders.

[alga]

I'm so glad to see that the torch is being passed on. I like the design of the Triton nose and scuttle a bit more than the alternatives.

Pardon me??

[Ianr]

Well done Vmax, I hope your generosity gets rewarded in the long term and people remember what you have done to help them.

[james3004]

It has literally just arrived!

But to be honest the quality is shocking!!!!!!

I'd say if your waiting for anything get your money back don't hold out any hope of the stuff being useable if and when you finally get it!!!!!

I originally got a bonnet from skov, but it was old and the gel was cracked so decided not to bother filling and painting it cos of the amount of work required and get a new one, I have to say the original I had is better!!!!!!

[SeanI]

Best of luck with the new venture,

I understand there has been quality issues in the past but im sure they will get sorted under the new ownership,

I hope the existing customers get what they want in return from gillham,or at least there money back???

its a real shame but looks to be in good hands now :)
