I feel bad for you guys, I really do. Especially since I was the one that actually got the carbs from him and recommended his work to everyone here. Had I only known he was a shyster...

Yeah, that was one excuse. Besides, he got better and had a chance to make things right. He chose the low road.

Don't feel bad he had good references from others including TPUSA Carlos. Fred did the performance head work for them. There were many factors involved, I wish he would have just come clean and told the truth. I think that bothers me as much as all the money and parts he owes me.

I didn't realize that he actually owed people products after they were already paid for! I guess I am lucky, I am out $150-$200 for the carbs I bought but I still have them. That sucks that he still has your head and money and whatever else he has of yours, sorry to hear that. If he was getting out of it the least he could have done was return money and parts to the customer. That is a shame too it sounded like he could have got some good business from our site alone.

Fred s stated phone number (770-572-9098) is still viable, I just got his voicemail, if he was into me for $$$ and parts, I'd visit the M.F. ,pull him onto the porch and shake all the money out of his pockets.

Sounds like a good idea, but for the Canadian guys it would probably cost more to make the trip than they are owed.
