A datsun project or the KC seals, my money is on a Datsun project. :lol: Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Im here to say Tom is not a scammer. He just went through a rough period including having to move ect... I know you guys are frustrated & i get that. I also dont know all the details im just speaking up for a friend. Link to comment
Javin Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I have faith. Stuff happens in life. I will continue to patiently wait for the 3 sets I ordered. :) Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Weeks are passing you guys...I honestly just want the money back now. This is crazy :/ And by the way, the no Internet thing is a joke... If he really cared to let these people know what's going on like a decent guy, then he could easily hop on a friends computer for 5 minutes to make a post. Charlie, you're a buddy with internet, right? The web is pretty easy to come by these days. Tons of places have free wifi, or pay by day. I'm starting to think scam? Anyone else have thoughts? How much did you send to Tom for Gaskets. Let me know & I will send you your money back after Christmas out of my next unemployment check. Mattycrab it is people like you that should not invest your money in a project of this nature. You are trying to get something that has to be custom manufactured. Once you get your money back I do not want to see you posting any more BULL SHIT on here about Tom or the gaskets. Enjoy your cracked seals because I will do every thing in my power to be sure you do not receive any of these seals. I will return your money buy a US Postal Money order only so there are no PayPal fees for you to whine about and Registered Mail so I have a receipt that you received it. It is not my place to refund your money but Tom is a friend of mine and I do not appreciate the asshole way you are behaving. So you get your money back and no more flaming Tom & no gaskets for you. 1 Link to comment

You are out of line...in a BIG way.You need to shut the fuk up right now. Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 How would he be out of line? He is standing up for his friend and offering dude a way out. I will patiently waiting for my CUSTOM seals. I might even be interested in someone elses set, if they don't think their investment will pay off. I just want some fresh seal sets and the bitchfest isn't helping. Probably not hindering either...so whatever. Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Z train please explain how I am out of line. Link to comment

So you get your money back and no more flaming Tom & no gaskets for you. Wow man... Please don't take it so personally. I have a right to be a little frustrated about the deal, right? It's been months without communication from the guy! Be realistic. I'm not trying to start a flame war. I'm not angry in the sense that you might think I am. I don't really think about this as I fall asleep or even make wrinkles in my face about it. ...But it's a little frustrating to see your money taken from some guy who suddenly disappears from existence for a while. I really hope he's ok! I say that sincerely, and I still really think the project is a great idea and difficult undertaking. I understand your need to defend a friend, but lets keep it level-headed. Nothing I've said is an "asshole" comment. Just legitimate complaints. take it easy Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Mattycrab if you want your money back just say so and I will send it. You mentioned a scam and this is so far from the truth. Link to comment
mattykrab Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 I just think it's odd that he hasn't made an attempt to ease our minds about the unannounced delays. It's really his responsibilty, not yours. And please keep the money Charlie. We're in the same boat, I just don't know Tom personally, and unfortunately I've been jacked on the net before :P. Just my instincts to speak up about it rather than sit around. A lot of you guys are vouching for him, so I definitely feel better about it. Is he ok though? Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Really if you read back through the thread...it's all delays. It's a one-off peice as far as the manufacturer is concerned. Even less so if you take into account the OP was only able to get half of what he needed (less really) to make it an easy deal. Simple math really :lol: I still want some seals. Link to comment
Z-train Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 First let me say this-I like Tom.Stand up guy.Having said this,he is handling this in the wrong way.No communication gives the APPEARANCE of skull duggery. On the internet,it is natural to think scam.Unfortunately,it's a way of life for some.And this is re-enforced by lack of news/communication(what ever you want to call it. I have paid for two sets up front.And have purchased and received 4 other gaskets-so i'm qualified to speak.If i were coming up on "paint time",i'd be hotter than a two dollar pistol.But i'm mellower than that(go ahead-laugh).Actually,no 1/4 gaskets is keeping me from replacing windows. Defense of a friend can be a good thing-EXCEPT when the friend has done his fair share to cause the ruckus.(Please refer to line 1) Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Z train I appreciate you view on this and I agree that people that do not know Tom would think that this would be a scam. My offer stands to mattycrab for me to send him his money back. Z train I will not communicate any more on this matter you all on on your own. Merry Christmas everyone. Link to comment
