Holly crap talk about customer service!!! First I ordered a used mirror 'cause I'm a cheap bastard and it's not exactly concourse material. Well, I wasn't entirely happy with what I got... So he absolutely made it right. Better than right... I feel like I owe him now. How'd I get in this position?
Then today I called and asked for stupid used part to try building something and again, the guy is too good to believe. So far I've just been shopping for silly trinkets, but when it comes time to buy real parts I know where I'll look first! Customer service pays off! At least it does with me! http://www.914-partsshop.com Thanks Nate! Coy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Yo, this is how I roll Group: Members Posts: 823 Joined: 5-April 05 From: Napa, CA Member No.: 3,879 Region Association: Northern California |
I bought a set used set of replica Fuchs from him a few weeks ago off of the classifieds section. I picked the wheels up at his shop and hung out for about 1/2 an hour talking to him. Super nice guy who really loves 914's and willing to do what he can for his customers.

I'll chime in here as well. Nate is awesome! I have purchased several parts from him over the past 6 months or so. He always delivers what he says and is a real pleasure to work with.
Keep up the great work, Nate!!! |

I just ordered some Euro taillights from him. He was super easy to work with and said they were going out yesterday. I can't wait to get them!

I just spoke with Nate last week. He said if you don't like it send it back. No problem. Does it get better than that...................NO!
So I said fine then lost all the contact information until today. Gene |

Is there someplace on the web site that says where this business is located? I pretty much have an internet buying rule that if a web site doesn't post a physical location I don't buy from them.

Yes, me too, unless it says Florida, then I still don't buy from them. I got screwed around on 3 out of 4 ebay deals from Florida. Not completely screwed, just screwed around a bit. |
