I just bought one of his throttle bodies. it was fast, easy, and the thing looks f-ing awesome. i would def recommend him.

i'm super surprised to see all of this. but in my business i've learned that nobody really writes good reviews, and that its the bad experiences that are always heard.

Post #29 of this thread has MORE than enough examples of why he can't be trusted. If you can buy his stuff from a vendor that has it on the shelf then that's great but dealing with this @sshole directly is a big risk.

Thank God I saw this thread. I emailed him through ebay some questions, which he never replied to, or I might have mistakenly ordered from him. He is in my state saw I thought I would be safer, but guess not.

He is slow about replying to messages but I have bought 2 tb's from him without any issues... recieved them both in a week or less. I am having a bit of a issue with the 5.3 electronic tb I bought from him last week. My truck is idling funny with it, I put the stock unit back on until we get it resolved.

I just got my issue worked out on that electronic throttle body I bought from Jantzer... Turned out all I needed to do was reset the pcm... but I had to file a dispute to get that info out of him lol.

I got my money refunded the day after the TB core arrived at his address. Guess I got lucky.

So is he still a POS? I own Jeeperman and have some items listed on Ebay. He dropped me a message asking if I'd sell cheaper outside of Ebay. Not sure if I want to even do business with this type of animal, even though I'm on the other side (supplier)....

Considering his history, I'd proceed with great caution, if I proceeded at all.

The only way I would buy any Jantzer product is if it was through a vendor that had it sitting on the shelf. As for selling to him that's pretty easy...show me the money first and you get your shipment second.
