Default Fenix999....2 Months and no bracket

I bought and paid for an alternator relocation bracket from Albert (Fenix999 on the boards) on March 4, 2009. It is now May 3, 2009 and I haven't received my bracket let alone a date when I will get it. I opened a paypal claim but it was closed since it was after the 45 day window from purchase (Albert kept telling me he was going to deliver so like an idiot I waited). Since I paid with a direct transfer from my bank account, I can't file a claim with my bank either (they only cover transactions for 30 days). It's a real shame that I had to post this since I heard he make a great bracket. At this point I just want my money back. I really hope he reads this and explains himself because 2 months is not acceptable. I also hope others read this before they make a purchase with him. The kicker is I was going to order some turbo parts from him as well. I'm glad I didn't. Now I'll have to go and buy a Speed Inc. kit so I can get my car running (which I should have done from the start). Lesson learned.

i honestly came in here looking to see if there is any negative feedback towards him. i gave him half down for a turbo kit around 2 months ago. he told me it would take 3-4 weeks to get the kit completed and i've yet to have it in my posession. he hasn't been picking up my phone calls and i'm getting ready to take action soon if he doesnt call me saying the kit is done or gives me my money back. pm me your number if you want and ill give you a call.

sorry to hear you still dont have your bracket. i believe that he was trying to scam me, but got scared because he knew i had all of his info/home address/DL # ect....even though i got my money back, i politely asked if he was honestly making the turbo kit and if not i dont mind just buying h/c in which he said he really was going to finish making it and call me when its done. to this day ive yet to receive a call to get my turbo kit and gave up a few weeks ago and purchased a prc 2.5 ls6 heads/tsunami cam combo. he's a shady piece of **** which you can see and good luck with getting your bracket.

Agreed. It's sad really, all he had to do was refund my $120 or send me the bracket and there would be no issues.

That's sad over 120$. Looks like his car sale isn't going too well though.
