Thumbs down No To Japanparts.com

what ******, thats all i gotta say, i get an estimate from them a while back for a jdm light, and then i come back to try get an estimate on something else and they tell me that i'm wasting their time, all i gotta say is that those punks in japan better learn some respect because they lose bussiness like that. talk about customer service.

really?

I've had nothing but GOOD RESULTS FROM THEM!

I've order almost everything on my car and stuff that's not on my car yet with no problems. The only problem I had was them not telling me a part was replaced with a new one but I still got my parts in a timely manner. always got my estimates and always honored the estimates given. as long as you have the original email and the original quote number then they cannot go back on it. they are good business people that I'VE continued to do business with for the last few years now!!!

actually their prices are VERY GOOD however it's the shipping that tips the scales on whether to buy from them or not.anyway it's your opinion but I'll continue to use them since I've had nothing but good things happen from dealing with them. they've also located almost impossible items for me in the past and can and will get them for me if necessary. again these guys only sell NEW things and they get them directly from the manufacture no middle man. their prices are pretty competative and depending on the exchange rate (USD is stronger than YEN) the prices are very good!

sorry if you disagree but I'll continue to use them for the really hard to get items.

Andrew,

I know what you're talking about but you know, there was a couple of things I was looking at on Subydude's website, then just for comparison I checked out Japanparts. Subydude was quite a bit more expensive.

I've gotten decent service with them as well when I group buy my serveral counts of rain visor.

Sorry to hear your bad experience.

It is pretty bad to hear that from them.

I sincerely doubt anyone from here would have said "that i'm wasting their time"
We celebrated our 10th anniversary of being parts exporters in April this year, and didn't get there through dissing customers, potential or otherwise

Suggest this may be a misunderstanding ( ?? )

Please feel free to PM me with any emails from Japanparts that have told you to "stop wasting our time"

Best

Our Japanparts website automatically calculates freight to any destination in any currency, you can generate your own quotes from the 19,000 Parts on our website, OR our Team can do that for you

No problem. Before you start calling us names like "*****" , you might want to have some actual facts ( ? )

Your I-Club profile has you as being the "Unofficial spokesman for Max @ Gruppe S"

Nice to be getting all this flak from one of our direct competitors; how much truth is there here ( I wonder?)

I always deal with Ken via email...etc.

Thanks,

jon
