Yep, that's RNR for you. I had the unfortunate experience of living through that same experience last summer when I ordered a TBE from them (false tracking number, constant "its going out tomorrow" claims, no response from PM's or voice mails). I eventually got all my parts (after two downpipes)... but it was the worst buying experience I've ever had.

In that case, I dont blame you. Its understandable. Just offering a balance to the issue. Most of the time people fly off at the keyboard and dont realize the consequences. It would seem there are mixed reviews about RnR's service, but for the most part they seem like nice guys and always have treated me nicely and promptly responded to all my questions. Best of luck to you.

honestly, i visited ryan at his shop to pick up my TBE (6 hr drive)
when i got there he was the only one there, helping me and another older couple at the same time. i'd say give him a break... i wanted to polished apex'i can, but the supplier sent the gold one. no big deal to me tho. sometimes crap just happens...i've had vendors lie to me at work all the time, and i relay their msg to the customer. not much else to do

I think every effort should be made to resolve the problem before you get on the boards and start *****ing. Running a business that also relys on the performance of people outside your control is a monumental task.
Everytime I've had a problem, complaint or question about an ordered part from RnR, Ryan has gotten back to me and we resolved the issue without getting on the public forums. We are talking about a man's livelihood. How would you like it if everytime there was a question about your performance at work it was broadcast on the company bulliten boards.
My suggestion is to resolve your issues one on one!

The CC will hit Paypal and refund your money, then Paypal goes after the vendor...
There's more info on Paypal regarding disputes...search for dispute tutorial...

Have you dealt with him? I'll bet not! Perhaps if you re-read the posts then maybe you'd realize that, by my estimation, he has not given him a chance to respond. Why has he responded to me and others in a timely manner? Maybe we've been patient and waited for an answer. Someone who calls on a Friday and can't believe they don't get an immediate response is not being realistic. I suppose Ryan should be waiting by the phone for his call.
If you feel like I'm ignorant, I would invite you to meet me half way and we can fully determine who is the ignorant one!

In fact, do a search about RnR and you will pretty much get the smae story. If Ryan has the business sense (which he doesn't), he would have the time to attend to the need of his customers by responding to PMs and emails. He has in fact not. If you are talking about a "man's livelihood", then Ryan should get with the program and deal with his customers. End of story.

And yes at my job my performance is the entire company right to know how i am doing, every week our numbers are posted on production rate, dollars per product produced, etc. Maybe i have a stronger work ethic then others, and know if i don't do what I promised I said I would at work, well than I couldn't afford my Evo and or the toys to go along with it. I worry about myself, not someone who keeps on saying "It's going out tomorrow" quite a few times. Take your posts elsewhere if you don't like what I have to say.

If it makes you feel better, I got my tracking number 2 months before my parts shipped. I even have a downpipe that won't fit and they have not responded to my several attempts for some kind of resolution.
