about a month ago, a regular on the vortex, bryson of southcitytuning, posted rallye outlets for $50. i contacted him by email immediately and he responded by telling me to send him the $$ right away if i wanted one because he had a lot of interest in them. i sent out a money order via priority mail and emailed him the same day telling him that it went out. he sent back a message assuring me that he had one for me. a couple of weeks went by and i sent an inquiry to him. he responded four or five days later that he had already shipped mine out. another week and still no outlet, two more emails to bryson and both times no reply at all

i hate to take this public but i don't know what else to do here. has anyone actually gotten one of these outlets from bryson? i am as patient as the next guy but i am taking my charger out next week to do a bbm widebelt on it and wanted to install the outlet at the same time

did i just piss away the $$ here?

I'm in the same boat. I paid through paypal and haven't heard from him yet. I emailed and IM'd and nothing yet. Let me know if you hear anything.

He got hung up waiting for some silicone connectors to arrive at his supplier's place. He should've waited a bit b4 he posted about the outlets. They'll be going out Thursday, or Friday if they haven't already. He sincerely apologizes for the delay.

i can say from my own eye's i have seen him run around like a busy beaver
or with a chicken with his head cut off. bryson is a good guy

Re: south city tuning problem? (evil87GTI)

(Again this is Bryson) I had responded to ur emails and that would explain why i had no response back. I'm taking it that u had never recieved the email. Again I apologize. Several people have already recieved their outlets. But I changed from the rubber boot to the silicone for the better deal and better quailty I'ld had received from AEM. I CANNOT EXPRESS ENOUGH APOLOGY FOR THIS. Please email me again and we will determine away to make u guys like me again. I"M VERY SORRY FOR THIS AGAIN.

bryson, if that is what is going on, fine, but why did you (1) email me saying that you had already shipped it when that clearly wasn't true? and, (2) not answer my emails for the last two weeks? btw, you still haven't...
i am not trying to create a public spat here but there are larger issues...the corrado group is a pretty small crew and if you are lying here you are going to have long term credibility issues

before this, i have never had a single problem dealing on trust w/ another corrado owner.

Bryson's more like a chicken going out of his way and then getting his head cut off for doing so. Instead of sending them out in peices he tried to get the silly con boots for you guyes and look......

Re: south city tuning problem? (G60NUT)

First of all that's pretty ballsy for u to get on a public site and call me a liar. It's very clear I'm not a liar. I do apologize that i screwed your response on the email. Several people have already recieved there outlet and i probably responed to you with one of thiers. I'm sorry for that but between the enmourus emails i answer everyday and sending them back a response it's easy for me to mix up the responses. I'm working on that problem now. If you have any further greef you need to email me and not post it publicly. Everyone who is dealing with me now and have in the past knows I'm very straight forward and very clean on what is done. As my buisness grows i expcet for problems like this to occur as i grow in volume. It's only me and I'm doing the best i can. You won't be screwed on ur order. I promise you that. I can send u the outlet as it is now but i don't think that is very fair to you.

bryson, read the opening post again before venting on me. i have participated in several group purchases on the vortex. pat wells has two going [pedal covers and shift knobs] that have taken a looong time through no fault of his own. at each delay, he has let everyone know of the problems. that is the way to do business that benefits everyone. in this case, i resorted to the vortex because i have been emailing you for the better part of two weeks w/o any response whatsoever. even this morning i sent you another email...still no reponse. four other people have followed me up w/ similar complaints. now you tell me to email you instead of airing this in public

what do you think all of my previous emails to you were for?

great move, attack me to to deflect any criticism of you...

Re: south city tuning problem? (redrocketrado)

some of you are real ungratefull asssholes!
so what, you're offered a great deal, accept it, and then cry about it like little girls? i'd be ashamed... i've ordered one from bryson, and i'm sure i'll get it... even though i've yet to receive it.
he is ONE PERSON not 15 people with a receptionist and a personal courier. i've bought 2 rallye adapters before, for a much higher cost and i know for a fact that he isn't making much more than a dime selling these things.
bryson, if i were you, i'd refund that idiot his money back, and dont' send him an outlet. i'm sure he'll be glad to pay double that for one off somebody else. good riddance you idiot!!!
lets not forget that this is the same way we lost our european contact, niko and robert. i can't blame him either, nobody deserves to be bashed after doing "volounteer" work.
so, do us a favour and just shut the fcuk up and don't ruin a good thing for the rest of us

Re: south city tuning problem? (BLUE NRG)

I thank you guys for the support. Everyone that ordered an outlet that has not received it will receive it. I'm not trying to vent on anyone. I have tried to email to keep an update. I'm gonna follow through better in the future. Again shoot me an email if you have anything else. thanx
