Who here has dealt with R and D and had either a good transaction or had issues?

I have dealt with Dave from R and D. I purchased some rims and then had some personal problems and had to get my money back. Which Dave agreed and told me he had sold the rims. And that was in Feb of this year. Til this day he still owes me $1425.00. I've tried numerous times to contact him via email and phone but no such luck. He's given me back $800 for the $2225.00 that I had given him. Dave if you are reading this please email me back.

It took 9 months to get my item. I get the end around for 8 months and I was promised extra goodies...never got the extra goodies.

I'm assuming it's too late to charge back the credit card by now? Man that's a lot of money.... Why did he refund only $800? What was the explanation for that?

USMCLude · 11-17-2006, 03:11 PM

His explaination was that the buyer only gave him $800 so far. it was a payment of $300 then $500. And that was in feb of this year. So I'm trying to get back in touch with him but no such luck, he won't return my phone calls or my emails so what am I suppose to do?

**** R and D

I thought they were a sponsor of the site. How can a place with such bad business ethics be a site sponsor?

mercer_diamond · 11-17-2006, 04:22 PM

i never had a bad issue with R and D except for one. i spent well over a grand there then i ordered some wheels and thats where the problems came in. so just dont order any wheels from there hahahahahaha

dvsracergirl · 11-17-2006, 06:05 PM

ive heard lots of stories about them and the rims...

but everytime ive dealt with them ive had to wait but always got my item with updates from dave.

97laxlude · 11-18-2006, 12:34 AM

Dave is a real nice guy but R and D's business practices are some of the most f#cked up I have experienced and seen. I really don't understand how they are still around.

irishluder · 11-18-2006, 08:14 AM

Mike is great though, if you can get the stuff from him get it.

got my first package mike, Thanks

StuntMonkeh · 11-18-2006, 08:59 AM

Had bad experience, payed them and the parts never arrived... gave up trying to get a refund.

extinct · 11-19-2006, 08:39 AM

by far the worst place ive ever dealt with. just a bunch of liars if you ask me. im honestly supprised to hear theyre still in business. but yeah i have a similar wheel story. dealt with them over two years just trying to get ce28ns! got my money back in small increments over a years time. i would not recommend buying/ordering anything from them

EDIT: BUY FROM BULLETPROOF AUTOMOTIVE!!!!!

preludex2 · 11-19-2006, 03:05 PM

I also had a bad experience buying wheels and tires from R and D. Ordered a set GT-7's, waited forever and when I finally received them the rims were all scratched from having the tires mounted on them. Did he offer to fix it? Sure, with a Dremel!! wtf?? Over $2200 in a set of brand new wheels and tires and he wants to fix them with a Dremel. He never offered any kind of monetary compensation, replacement set of wheels, nothing....
