JOG,

When I write letters. It takes a few days, to go over, and over it, to get it right.
I Did that in this case.  IT WAS RETURNED NOT OPENED.
 (Yes it was sent to the correct address. 3 checks; their Invoice, their web site, and a yellow pages search).
So you think a phone call will get to the top ???????
I don't think so.  
And a little stipend, to make things right, and I am suppose to forget all about it?  

It's simple, I make things right by just never spending any money their again.  That's all, real simple. No skin off my teeth.
Their are hundreds of other places that have the same items for sale,
and actuality care about customers.

Now their are places, where I do do business, where I have been treated fairly, and others on this forum, say, 'no no no'.

I Believe, I, (in the above case) have benefited from, ' someone else', getting screwed.  And  SAYING SO.

Just as someone else, after this, may receive good service from B.B.

The point is, is if everybody, ACCEPTS, slip shod, service. It will just get worse, NOT better.

And then, it will be, a very short step away from people believing the statement:
"I'm from the Government, and I am here to help you".

Just to see what happens... I ordered a set of "tac cable seals", the speedo cable seals....
They are hard to come by..... so I thought I would see if I could order some.
I used a part number from one of the older posts that shows the seals and packaging (Old Fellor I believe had it)
Only $4.82 plus a couple bucks shipping (no big loss if fails)
Paypal sent the message money was paid...
Next day email arrives saying thank you for your order...
but....it is not in stock and is on back order....
Here is what they sent me via email...

Greetings William,

Thank you again for your purchase from BikeBandit.com. Due to high demand, the manufacturer has marked the item(s) listed below in your order UT399QM as backordered. If your order included additional items that are not listed below, those items will still be processed and shipped as soon as possible.

For more information on what backordered means, see the box below.

If the item(s) status has not changed after 25 days, we will cancel these item(s) from your order, and you will not be charged.



after 25 days if it is not delivered the order will be canceled...wonder if they will credit my paypal account? or send me a check?

Lets see what happens....

Rather different than:

Accept your order,   Take your CC  #.
and,  'Later',  tell you:  (via e-mail)
"X parts are back ordered, and well 'let you know', when we ship.

Ya know,  I, think their is a difference,
perhaps you do not.

LOLOLOLO)LOLOL,

YET  they would  take 3-5  MOUNTS  to deliver  !!!!!!!

Gee, this was under the Carter Adm, where , one got 20% On a 'saving account'.   It was, (reported),  this company had ,  3-4  MILLION  DOLLARS, on 'deposit',  BEFORE thy Shipped.

What is  20% of 3 MILLION  Dollars  ???????

My aunt called. She said Ups had mistakenly delivered my package there and they're coming over (she and my uncle)to bring it to me. Their kindness is really immeasurable.

Just saying...

So, it is a  WEEK,   AFTER  you Ordered, and  PAID.
That  B,B.,  'said',  they are 'shipping' ?

My Preference is, a company that, 'SAYS'.  
WHEN I ORDER,
That part is in, or out, and the CC is charged,
and they will ship, today/tomorrow.

And their are  LOTS MORE, 'sites', that do that, out their.
LOTS  MORE   !!!!!!!!!

So why put up with with a site, that 'says' (lies), they have it, and  REALLY Doesn't.   AND   PAY them,  BEFORE, they ship the part??????

Received the parts in the mail on Monday.... they are the correct ones.

So a recap,
I ordered on the 4th
On the 5th they sent an email saying they were back ordered
Received the parts on the 15th
Total time was 10 days...not bad for a back order
It would have been 5 days if they were in stock.....

These seals are not easy to come by from what I understand, even dealers don't carry them, so if I ordered from the closest dealer (1 hour away), I would have to waited about 3 weeks (because they would have to back order them) instead of the 2 I ended up with.

Sorry you had such a bum rap...but i'm satisfied.

By the way....paypal pays the business when the order is placed, I've never had to go through a refund process, so i'll never know if it would have been hard or not. But like I said it was only $4.82 cents and no big loss if they failed to come up with the parts.
They would have refunded paypal (a very large corporation, with lots of lawyers) and paypal would have refunded my credit card.

One question,
You ask why I paid them "before" they shipped....
that's the way online shopping goes,
they don't do C.O.D.

If you find a company that will ship me parts before I pay them, let me know.

Lots of  Internet, companies,
DO,  NOT, charge your CC,    BEFORE, they ship.
  They charge,  WHEN,   They ship.

  LOTS of them !

In fact,  the MAJORITY, of them !
