I was told these were new when I ordered them......gotta love this. The good news is that they said they will refund my money including shipping.
I have purchased many things from AA over the years and have been satisfied most of the time...not all, but this is not good practice if you want to keep clients. One spring is a good inch longer than the other and the longer one is bent and clearly messed up. And then there is the shitty paint job....really. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sheeplove.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sheeplove.gif) If it were me, I could care less about whether I got my money back or not. The fact is AA is full of screw ups. And I refuse to accept the excuse that it's just the young college dudes that Herr Georg hires for cheap labor. They're getting the instruction to make those kinds of decisions from somewhere. Hence, I will not order from them, and I try to educate new owners that there are plenty of other, better vendors to deal with. Go ahead, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) me, but there are enough stories here now to warrant my opinion (including my own experience). A new part is a new part. A part that is cleaned up, even really nice and repainted is NOT a new part. |
