Thumbs down BAD GUY: EVO-R Motorsports - Jay

I really hate to do this but this has gone on long enough. Jay from Evo-R sold me a Carbon Fiber RX-8 front lip on March 26th with a promised shipping date of April 16th. It is STILL not here and NOW he will not communicate with me at all after about 7 e-mails. I have asked him several times to update me or send me a refund and now he won't respond. I please ask that NONE of your purchase his products until he is found to be responsive.

If anyone knows him personally and has a way to contact him please let me know. I feel as though I am about to be $459 out of luck and I am willing to go to whatever lengths to retrieve even a portion of that money.

A quick note: I have purchased to evo-r rear trunk lip for my car from him a year or so ago, and received it just fine. So...I don't know what this guy is doing.

Thanks again and I hope this doesn't happen to you.

Anthony R.

^ I ordered the CF gauge pod from him awhile back it took maybe 3 or 4 emails to get a response the product comes from overseas so it took awhile and i think he just has no control over the other end i eventually got the product after talking about a refund and possible paypal dispute because it was almost 30 days. He threw in some little spirit r decals which was nice but i really just wanted my pod. I think you will get the product it just takes wayyyyy to long and he has no control and doesnt have a good answer so he doesnt which is silly also because communication is better then not answering.

Damn. Glad I'm not the only one. Sent him those e-mails and now waiting for a response. Moving over to rx7club as well to drop the info. Like I said, I did order his trunk lip, which I love btw, and that was super fast. He did tell me he was talking with the manufacturer, but he needs to keep the customer that paid $470 updated once and a while.

Thanks for the responses and PMs fellas.

i have seen threads like these for this vendor before. i think it is because people order things that are not in stock. i'd recommend to anyone ordering from Evo-R PM Jay before ordering to make sure the item is actually in stock.

I think Jay doesn't stock enough items or something. just guessing. Mine took awhile as well. But personally i think the wait is worth it i mean your getting a replica that actually fits very well, which also going to arrive faster than the real one from Japan.

Absolutely. I agree with this 100%. I think it's more than worth it. I just wanted to know where we stand as far as the order goes, and just basic communication. If this was a $60 order, I could wait forever, but $500, man...I could be using that for something else.

To Nuke - Yeah, I figured that was the issue, but he sent an e-mailed with a shipping date of April 16th. Why would anyone do that?

I understand where you're coming from. It is kind of weird how his business is ran. I met him in person before can't say he's a bad person i guess.

Hit him up for me and be like "Hey man, Anthony wants to know about his lip." I know the guy is still around, I wonder if any of the members on here would be able to contact him.

Anybody up for trying? I got his e-mail and everything. He never answers the phone so I never try.

I bought eyelids from him before. Had to email him a couple times reminding him to get them painted. Got them a couple weeks later than predicted.

Yeah I dont think hes a bad guy or a shitty vendor he could just use better communication i figured it wasnt in stock i think it even said it wasnt on his listing but he gave me a shipping date which ended up being alot later. The product is awesome just needs better communication.

Right now, we are at ZERO communication. I have dealt with bad communication before, this flat out feels like $500 down the drain. No excuse. I'm a pretty busy person myself, but if I was running a business on the side, I'd sit down and answer some e-mails.

The problem here is obvious; Jay has the completely wrong attitude about dealing with stuff like this ....

Update

I e-mailed him the other day using my g-mail account instead of my Virginia Tech account just in hopes that it would catch his eye. Behold, A RESPONSE!!!! It's only fair to update this thread with his response so you guys can make your own opinions of the situation.

"Anthony,

I have not ship out the lip yet. Cuz I'm suppose to get 5 sets in this week. Once in I'll ship out ASAP. Thanks!

Jay S

EVo-R INC."

There you go...I'll keep you updated if he sends me a tracking number or if it shows up at my door.

Has he contacted you directly after the order? If so, please update this thread with his response to see if it matches.

Thanks for the info and PM blur. Let me know if you get that lip before I do. Cause I'll want to get that shipping code so I can drive and get it myself.

No sir. I was hoping he would get these shipped out Friday or Saturday. I've waited 3 months already so I'm pretty numb right now.
