I order a frag rack from this guy on July 7. On 8/1 after 3 weeks had passed it seemed like quite a long time to wait so I inquired about the rack:

Any idea when this will ship? Thx!

Guy says he’ll check on the status of the order and he’s sorry for the delay.

Never responded. 10 days goes by and I reach out again.

Then he just cancels the order. Really shady if you ask me. No explanation or anything. Avoid this seller unless you want to wait over a month for your order only to have it cancelled. He did refund me, but now I need to order another rack and wait again. Very frustrating.

That sounds like a bad experience. I would've been all over him waiting that long. I placed a custom order from him and the rack was fine but I had to ride him a bit to get it in a timely matter.

Yeah, it really wouldn’t have been a big deal had he just said…look man, I’m smoked with orders, can you give me another week or two.?

That would have been cool, and the right thing to do, but instead…without any explanation or warning he cancels the order. Apparently, his frustration due to his inability to fill orders was taken out on me. That’s just shady. It’s fine though, that’s the beauty of social media and forums. People can judge for themselves if they want to gamble with somebody like that.
