TBH it's probably best they dont comment on this thread. Sometimes staying silent is actually the better business plan when it comes to forums so arguments dont follow.

So not saying anything is the smarter option under the circumstances.
True. Glad you may be getting a refund... Hopefully they hire more help and more business brains to assist the motor heads who run that joint.

They do have a lady who answers the phones every time now which is a plus. She is just not empowered to do anything unfortunately. You rarely hear people bashing their machining - just the customer service, disorganization that leads to hurt feelings and accusations of lying etc...

I have dealt with AES also. I'd say my experience with them was fair. When a problem came up, they took care of it. It was not done in a timely manner, but it was taken care of. Also, when I requested a receipt, it was like pulling teeth.

Overall, I wouldn't say it was a bad experience; however, it is the small things that makes me want to continue to do business with a company.

Expats are the work force....not Arabs....LOL......Its people from around the world that come to Dubai to work. They take pride in their work......unlike 95% of Americans. Its the reason this performance industry of ours is made up of so many dirtbag scammers......Speed shops going in and out of business every week is proof of that.

Another guy dicked around by AES checking in...

Here's my story.

https://ls1tech.com/forums/ls1tech-s...ecialties.html

TLDR: Puked my stock shortblock, called AES, was told could have a 390 to my door in 2 weeks. Paid in full. Several months later, after tons of non-returned phone calls and emails, and several bold faced lies, no engine.

I pulled the plug much sooner than a lot of you guys that waited almost a year or more. **** that.

Ironically, I ended up buying a brand new AES 370 from a guy on here, and it's been a great engine...so far. But it was a shortblock, and I did all the rest of the assembly, so i knew exactly what was in it.

Anybody wanting to use AES....don't waste your time...because AES certainly will.
