Goopyperformance fraud!

Greetings from the Croatian.

This post I am writing to alert and paying attention to unprofessional conduct of Goopyperformance.

I sent from Croatia my rotor housings for refurbrishing and in short time it was reported to me that one can be saved, and the other is unusable.
It was offered to me one in excellent condition for $ 400 ...

In the pictures below you can see this great condition ...

In short, a fraud and unprofessional to end.

I therefore wish to warn you aboit this the respective company.

Have somebody any clu how can I get any sort of satisfaction and money back?

I'm confused.
The picture you posted, is that your housing that you sent them, or is that the housing that they are telling you is in great condition?

I wouldn't want a housing like that in my motor.

Apparently, it's a "good" resurfaced housing that they sent him.

goopy performance is known to sell what they called recondition housing.

what it doesis they grind the chrome to get rid of the chatter mark found on worn housings. so the apex seal will have a flat place to ride on, just like lapping an iron to make it flat. but lap/grinf means it will remove crtain amoint of material off from the housing.

what it seems is that they sold you a bad housing that probably looks good when they grind it, butthe chrome flake off during shipment.

have u contact them at all?

well, that was just a stupid "example" , yea no way it can "fell off" during shipment ... it must be bad in the first place.

contact them first and see what they say.

there are companies working on re-chroming the housings, but honestly I would not try those unless these housings are NLA, like the 12A housings and some early 13B housings.

In that case, he should probably provide some proof that indeed they are from goopy. And contact them first and IF it doesn't resolve, well, then .... shiiit ....

Sorry guys, i was sleeping.

When the housings arrived to Croatia, and when I unpacked them, I was trying to get some explanation from Goop but nothing but the silence.

Ive got the mail saved to him, if you dont belive me.

in attachment i will put the invoice from him...as the proof...
