All I'm saying is what MM told me tonight. It came up as an invalid address from UPS.
I will look into getting it to you asap. Nothing to do until you hear back from me.

just be patient yo! I had to wait 6 weeks and 3 days for my car to get a new engine put in! But when they were done it was all worth it. They lied over and over saying it would be done on such-and-such date again and again, pushing it back every 3 days...until finally after 45 days of waiting.

Either is acceptable, but please quit the whining, it's getting old.

so your saying that the reason you waited a year later to get back your money for your turbo is because you wanted to wait for quality? WOW!

**** id be pissed too. And that "UPS address" problem is just a tactic to buy time, simple. At the end they will say they input the address wrong and say they sorry. lol
I suggest you just get a refund and buy it direct from someone else. Then just get it tuned to your car. Then not only do you get a tune, but you get to see what HP your car actually has.

If you know anything about Jeff, his products and his service time turn around, then this should be of no surprise to you. You are not paynig for speedy anything and instead have sacrificed quantity for quality.

If you didn't know, now you do and next time you should research before you spend your money and expect instant results from MM who has hundreds of customers, that he is taking care of at no additional charge. You are in line with the rest of us and if you are not ok with it then stop complaining and get out of line, so the rest of us can get our tunes quicker!

edit - hopefully Jeff doesn't get tired of a few people complaining about his poor customer service skills and continues to provide the RX8 community with free tunes. Other wise we will be like the Mazdaspeed crowd and their failed support by COBB.

unlike USPS where they just input the zip into their computers, when you send via UPS, the address needs to be in the correct format that is in the database. if not, they give you an option to send but warn you it may be un-sendable. so I wouldn't call BS too soon.

Though I do agree that if that was the case, it shouldn't take as long as it did to get a reply.

Yes but what if you had to fly all over the country for work? Replying at that point could turn out to be painful and slow.

enough with the political ****... btw who are you RMXG8 to diss a mod? They did it on some terms... You werent here when it happened, therefore you don't know the whole story (granted I wasn't here too, but that's not the point). Anyway, Patience is a virtue Or whatever that means.

Best of luck to you.

Yeah I know, double post, but seriously, what is the point of coming here and share your retarded opinions. Seriously, just stop.


Remember, Jeff is out of town, but I do understand that it isn't entirely his fault either. You have to understand this isn't his main job. People need a life so that they can succeed. No need to go up their *** to get whatever you want, then that makes you a bad person to deal with and a bad customer.

If you want the stuff from fluid so much, maybe you shouldve made a bad guy thread about him. Not Mazdamaniac. Oh wait, I forgot, he'd get the thread deleted.

I really like how this board is here to "help" other people with their cars. This section is to let others know of problems that people have with sellers. I don't understand why people are making MM to be a ******* God. Sure everyone makes mistakes, and travel comes up. I made this post to to get answers and everyone has to put in their 2 cents that doesn't even matter. There is an issue, and I took care of everything on my end.

If this were another seller in the same situation, everyone would almost agree that there are issues here, but because MM can do no wrong...im the bad guy here....wtf?

nope, you're not the bad guy but the way you INTERACT with vendors seems to be your demise.
Again, look at my common denominator comment.

Easy is trying to remedy this situation so be a little more patient and I'm sure it'll all get worked out.
As far as I know, no one has ever purchased something from Jeff and NOT gotten it. (might have been delayed but eventually it all gets worked out)

premature wining is like premature ejaculation.......something we all do on occasion...but don't want our buddies to know about it

Give Jeff a few days...hell it has only been a few days more than his best case scenario time lines

The rest of you...let him be at peace with his little problem.......

Pretty much, get use to it. The politics of this site really shine through when something like this comes up.

I have no issue with the OP, I think he has a right to complain about waiting for an item he purchased.... but that doesn't dismiss the fact that the OP is a douche-waffle.

I'm really disappointed in the way some of you members carried on with this fellow. And a little disappointed in the way he carried on. I'm really seeing way to much Bullshit on here anymore.

That's all I'm going to say.
