polak graphics

I'm not sure if this post belongs here, but I'm so pissed I don't care where I put it.

I paid good money on the 19th via PayPal for about $33 worth of supplies from Polak Graphics.

I have not rec'd them to date. I've sent emails to the company (multiple) with no response and no product.

THEY JUST FLAT OUT STOLE MY MONEY!

Other than contacting PayPal and disputing it, I don't know what to do next.

There is no contact number, otherwise I'd have that ****** on the phone in a heartbeat!!!

Has anyone had this problem?

Any ideas?

Let me know...

He's pretty well known as well as liked on the board, so you might want to rethink calling him out like this, and maybe take it back to pm's or just give him benefit of the doubt that it'll show up *just .02 cents and something to think about*

I don't know, but I did but an rx8club sticker and 4 red brake stickers from him about a month ago and I didn't get anything either, no tracking # no nothin, I totally forgot about.......Im gonna have to file with paypal too i guess

and yea, I thought that since he is a pretty nice person on this forum and well respected, something probably happened or something, so I haven't filed paypal yet

what ever, they're just stickers, can you please send them when you can polak?

thanks

PLEASE READ Polak Graphics had a fire. We order our club t-shirts from there, and we've ordered from them in the past. Have a little patience. We're still waiting on 50 t-shirts but I hav eno doubt they will come through.

Doesn't matter if your well known. Doesn't excuse the fact that he ripped someone off. Thanks for posting james429 and telling us. Hopefully things smooth out tho.

*** to slow in readin last post, still a response could have solved everything.

Yeah Polak is a pretty stand up guy. Assisted me in my dealings with JIC a while back ago, when he had a Group buy on their wheels. After my incident and fall through with JIC he shut down the whole Group Buy...He's been real busy these past couple of months, in and out of town an what not. He has his contact info on his site I believe why don't you just give him a ring..

Okay MR.46 posts.

Polak has been here since September 2002 with over 2000 posts that actually CONTRIBUTE to this website. So far all I have ever heard are good things about this guy. I have his sticker on my car. ( adds 7 H.P. )

You may want to do a little research before you start mudslingin around here

Okay then, can we get it moved?
We do have a forum called " good guy/bad guy"

No matter what sentence you use to start a post . . . it still belongs in the correct place. Your general disclaimer does not cut it.

I never knew his unit burned down abbid first of all, and this has been since september, its now almost November, I know he is a good guy that is why I haven't mentioned it before, I dont expect my money back, I expect the product within one year time though

#1, I apologize for flying off the handle.
#2, I paid, and never rec'd a product or an explanation.
#3, I have every right to raise a red flag if I feel there's been some wrong doing.
#4, it all seemed "that much more shady" when I emailed and emailed with NO RESPONSE.
#5, looked even more shady that there's NO CONTACT NUMBER.
#6, I've been patient...that's why the post.
#7, IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE POST, DON'T READ IT (you sound like the Religious Right that doesn't like Howard Stern...more on that later.)
#8, if Polak's business has grown to s/thing he can't handle, either give it up or hire some help.
#9, The point of a "forum" is for DISCUSSION PURPOSES. Again, buy a dictionary before you criticize.
#10, In or out of town...busy taking a dump or playing the peanut butter game with your pets, you still need to MANAGE YOUR BUSINESS!...(just wanted to round it out to the Top 10.)
...oh and OBVIOUSLY I WASN'T THE ONLY CUSTOMER WITH A COMPLAINT...that needs to be addressed. It's also in the dictionary under CUSTOMER SERVICE!
...****, that makes #11...
...AND QUIT POSTING AND MAIL SOME PRODUCT. NUMBER OF POSTS IS NOT RELEVANT TO HOW WELL A BUSINESS IS RUN. MAYBE ENRON SHOULD'VE POSTED SOME STUFF IF THAT'S YOUR BUSINESS ETHIC. DOES DONALD TRUMP BLOG OR POST?
...****, there's #12

the point was that he's a good guy that had complications with his business... no one's denying that it would have been nice to have a response but give him a ******* break dude. I would be upset too but knowing what I know now I wouldnt be that critical. If you havnt run a business before, you might not realize how surprises can make things very difficult but you dont just shut your business down cause you come across a bump. I just ordered a sweatshirt last week, now that I know that there was the fire, I'm not going to worry too much about how fast it gets here. Also, might wanna check what you say when you're lashing out at multiple admins... might get teh ban if you arent careful

I've bought from him a couple of times and I'd stand behind him 100%. No, he isn't fast on returning emails but that's pretty normal for ANY small volume parts company.

I'll send you 33 bucks just to gtfo.

So angry gezzzzz, James I've sent 2 emails (one bounced back so i used a non .edu smtp server) the other seem to go through, they basically said you order out of stock items and asked if you would like another color or refund.

My contact telephone number is available via paypal, or you could have just sent me a PM or IM'd via the yahoo handle i have under my forum name.
