Default Gustin NO response

Bought a Hurst shifter from Gustin 3 weeks ago. the first week i heard nothing from him. he claimed that he was helping the move of his grandmother for hurricane Rita. He said he would get it out asap. Now two weeks later no shifter and he's not responding to my messages.

I know Gustin. Good guy. Need any help? He was last on here 9-24-05... I'm sure there's a good reason. PM me if you want me to try to get in touch with him.

BlackLine, I'm his brother and he still has your shifter. He has been super busy with work and moving out of his current house and in the middle of changing jobs with very little help, and also looking for a new house while camping out at his sister-in-law's. Bad timing...but he will be in Austin tomorrow and I will offer to ship it out for him and overnight it to you. Sorry about the clusterf0ck, appreciate your patients...anyone would understandably be very upset.

Thats such bullshit. Granted he got it but those are the most BS excuses ever. He knew he was moving, and getting a new job. If he wasnt going to be able to get it out why sell it in the first place.

Its simple people, if you are too lazy to send something out then DONT SELL IT. Dont make BS excuses after, just dont sell it...

Pipe it, doughboy...that's life. I was just offering some help and some insight to the situation and what was going on. Laziness has nothing to do with it. Must be nice to live a life with out unforseen obsticales to hurdle.

Thats not unforseen, I highly doubt he didnt know he had to work, and move out of his house... He already had the money so he just took his sweet time to ship it out..

Pipe down, LS1_SS, and don't be an ***. Blackline got his parts. Apparently without your involvement.
