Wow Bob, nothing like throwing your "Great Friend 's" business under the bus.. If you were so concerned you should have just called him and stated that you were no longer sending customers his way because of the feed back you were getting. I guess you did that in this post big time. Does Larry even read Moparts postings?
it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

Things like this tend to get resolved quicker when brought to the public eye. I take it, it's more a last resort attempt. I personally use a credit card to pay for stuff anymore, so I can just have them handle it.

People have posted many times on many forums and facebook about the lack of customer service from Sled City , I thought everyone already knew it .

How any why you reach out to someone on social media can be helpful to both partys as well as informative to others.As long as it is respectful, no one should be offended.It can serve as a last ditch attempt to make contact before the issue becomes a bash fest.That certainly wasn't my intent.As I mentioned before we have done business with Larry and been friends for years and yes have had issues and have resolved them,I hope this can reach the same result in a timely fashion.Sadly racing season is underway and Neil needs his scoop.Neil now finds it necessary to go to another manufacture even though he has paid Larry.Neil has been a part of the BGR racing family for many years and I would be a less friend to Neil if I didn't step up to try and resolve the issue since I recommended Sled City.It goes to show that even I make mistakes. As I mentioned it was not my intent to offend anyone,just resolve an issue among friends,if I did I won't apologize because someone assumed I was being disrespectful.Most everyone here knows my character.Racers helping racers,nothing less nothing more,and respecting my son Curts' memory "a friend to all" Respectfully Bob

From my life experience, any business that requires 100% payment upfront, will not guarantee a delivery time, and has ANY customer issues disclosed online, is suspect IMO.
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Respectfully Bob Sometimes people get lax over time and Need to be sent a strong message. It happens and it seems its time in Larrys case, on more then one media board as well. I appreciate your post Bob and stand behind it. Larry, get it together or stop taking orders. Period!!

I am in the market for a Hemi Scoop hood for my 68 Barracuda. It didn't take but just a quick google to determine that was not a place to buy from.
