Is urbanimport able to differentiate the orders from the GD and orders from outside the GD? Will we get something in writing that we have a one year warrenty from urbanimport or is it like, if you have a receipt for the coilovers after the date that urbanimport became the official D2 headquarters, then that is sufficent enough for warrenty to be applied and no extra charge will be incur?

what about people who bought them from mark outside of the GD?
we have to pay $50 for a replacement strut??
or will you cover it mark?
if you are selling them you should....
i dont care if someone has to pay $50 to ship it back to asia... that is not my problem, it has a 1yr warranty for a reason. i am not going to pay $50 because i bought them from mark, they all have the same warranty from D2!!

Just from this quote, I believe anyone is entitled to a refund if they wanted it. I am thinking about it since there have been complaints agaisnt him and he does not SEEM to be too honest.

All orders were paid for by credit card, either by PayPal or over the phone. Credit card companies give their clients between 6 months to 1 year to dispute any charge for a product they did not receive or receive as advertised. Everyone here is protected by this and if you see us not keeping our promises of delivery by late January, then you have the option to call your credit card company for a full refund.
With this said there is nothing to worry about. If you have any concerns you can email us, post, or give me a call at (416) 835-8490. I have had this phone number for 3 years.

If you lock this thread, many of us with questions would not be able to contact Mark with our questions, because it seems that this thread is the best way in communicating with him. I have been very forgiving and reasonable throughout this entire transaction, and I just wanted to share my experiences with you guys, because last time I checked, people do not like being lied to.

*** that you get no apoligies here ! What I mean though was that because there are only maybe 3 ppl that are really having problems. There are a million other ways for you to contact Mark, there is no more need for this thread. Any PROBLEMS you have, bring them to Mark, AND NOT THIS THREAD !! All your doing is causing Mark and everyone else MUCH aggravation with all the speculation and nervous commentary.
Remember:
PROBLEMS - To Mark
EVERYTHING ELSE - Save It For Your Own Thread Or Don't Say Nothin !

The only things Mark should be dealing with right now are ppl who want refunds, warranty claims, or who have specific payment issues.
Any questions about the actual product should no longer be brought here, you should start a new thread about your technical or otherwise product related questions.
BTW - For the millionth time Mark has his phone # posted, he's around anytime after 9am in the Morn and into late late night. HE ALWAYS PICKS UP, so there should not be any problems of you contacting him.

I don't know bro....ANYTIME I had even the slightest question about this deal I called Mark that very second and 1 minute later I had my answer. If you are having some problem thats normal, **** happens, especially in such a large order coming from overseas. Why do you feel the need to bug the *** out of the person that your dealing with? You obviously see that these are isolated problems that only a couple of ppl have, and that the rest of us, the MAJORITY, don't have any issues. So there is no need for you to bring us your issues. If we recieved our coilovers and you didn't then I would understand the special case and would even be with you, but as of right now the only problems that ppl had are a couple of minor accounting issues. Otherwise the deal is going EXACTLY as Mark said it was going to go.
so...STFU and wait for your SH IT ! !

Don't tell me to STFU. This is a public forum, where people's views can be expressed, except for personal attacks. So what I was stating beforehand in my previous posts are all admissible regarding this thread. Thanks.

Hey Newbie (zam), I hate to say it, but you need to back off or be ready to be booted from the Org. We don't need your ridiculousness here and it is certainly unwanted. So, next time I would suggest taking your complaints up with whazzzzuup himself because your tone in this thread is borderlining ban worthy.
When customers have problems with vendors, this is a place that people turn to get information about such problems. If there are more than 1 or 2 people having the same problem with this guy, then there is definitely a situation that needs to be resolved. You will find that every well respected vendor on the Org quickly resolves any outstanding issue (such as this) in a swift manner and thus they are not flogged for poor CS.

zamochy, i do'nt get it, if you don't want to read these posts and want this thread locked, why would you click on this thread and keep on reading what people post? just IMAGINE that this thread is LOCKED and that there can be no longer any access to it. its just as simple as that.
and with whazzup, you can charge back on paypal, but i'm sure mark is going to give you a full refund since he owes me a refund also. i'm just waiting a couple of days before anything happens. and i'd figured, it's kinda hard to run away with that much money since there's at least $10,000 that he has of people's money, and i believe that once it reaches over $10,000 its a felony. not a misdemeanor anymore. and i did think about it, its true, if he wanted to run away with our money, he wouldn't pick up everytime that i called him and also spend tons of time reading this forum for any concerns

Wazzup. The reason you are so mad is because you wanted your coilovers expressed. This was during the stage that we were changing from dealing with D2 Taiwan to dealing with D2 USA and there was a big period inbetween that we were unable to deal with either company until proper agreements were secure. I do apologize that they were not able to be shipped express but we are refunded the $50.00 extra you paid and we will get the coilovers shipped with everyone elses.

hey mark i was wondering how's this going to be shipped to us, via fed-ex, ups, truck freight, train, or usps. reason is i would have to plan how to get it, only ups leaves it at my front door since i know the ups driver, but anyway else i would have to tell my boss that i need a day off between those times to wait for the coilovers to come in, well i wont tell my bos thats y i need off but heh, wouldn't that be funny

called and mark told me they will not ship untill the 15th or 20th...
they are shipping from NC, so anyone who lives near NC should get them in 2 days or less i would think.... people in Cali prob will have to wait another week or so after they ship.

He says, "It will be shipped out Monday and you should receive it by the end of the week" for at least the last 2 months! He promised me a partial refund for the delay since the beginning, but I never got it. I would also like a full refund at this time.
My co worker sucked it up, and purchased TEIN coilovers. My other co workers with Maximas were disappointed in not joining this GD for D2s, after 3 months of did it come in yet??? They were glad not to purchase in this GD.
Mark, please refund money, please contact me via PM on e-mail address to send back to.
This deal turned a bit sour when some people were promised an earlier date via emails, and responses on this GD post for delivery date were beyond that.
I'm sure some people were promised via email, a "before New Years" delivery date. This post has slowly been having a delivery date pushed back further and further. Its honestly to the point where it's tiring, and its bad enough I've seen the screw-age of JIC !!!!
TEIN's distributor handled our order over the phone at noon, gave our Nissan Corporate discount, and I got a FedEx Tracking # at 5pm today.
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the effort that went into this GD, the time management of this GD, could definitely have been better.

oh man...bet you were the one that ratted out classmates in school everytime someone did anything. F_kin RAT !
I can't believe people are going as far as actually REPORTING ppl to the BBB. Thats insane. What are we in 5th grade? Wait like every1 else. You aint' special. This was a complicated group buy of an order coming from over seas. Not only that, but the product wasn't even manufactured yet. We got a great price, on a custom performance product. Why can't anyone deal with their impatience?
