This is to clarify certain things regarding the Brabus bumper I ordered from Frank W. Last May 26, 2006 for the amount of $1220.00 shipped. I paid this through Paypal. I was told that this was going to get shipped on May 30. So I waited for the entire week thinking it should come in any day that week. On Friday June 2. I emailed Frank W and asked him about the bumper, I was told that the shipping company has not even shipped yet because they are waiting for other items. I feel that if I had not emailed him I wouldnt have known that it has not been shipped. I asked him if he could shipped it with a diff. shipping company he said he cant because the owner of the bumper C_brabus picked this shipping company. I dont understand why does the owner get to choose who to ship it through if im the one paying for it. The problem here is my car is in the shop now w/o a bumper and im paying for my rental car. The more this gets delayed the more im paying for the rental. This is to much of an inconvenience for me and my bodyshop. Now as for Frank W he said my bumper will be shipped on Mon. 6/5. I emailed him again asking when I should expect it to arrive then. Now he's just ignoring my emails and pm's.
At this point I dont care now that it is delayed but my concern is...If you paid $1220.00 you should at least get a tracking number. I have repeatedly asked him for one but up to now I have not gotten a tracking number. I dont even know if it did ship on 6/5.
Im not giving a bad rep for GtWerks but considering I paid this bumper in Franks name. I think he should still be liable for this. Because he told me that I did not buy this from GTWERKS but from C_brabus. But the mere fact that i paid this in full under his name he should still be liable for this. Thats why I bought this from him to begin with knowing he has a good rep in MBWorld. I certainly did not expect this to happen.
This is just a heads up to other people who might do business with Frank W in the future.
P.S. Frank if you read this I am still waiting for the tracking number. I did not want to do this but when you stopped returning my emails, pm's you left me with no choice.
Now this is getting ridiculous...posting on mbworld as well as benzworld??
I've already told you the bumper will get to your bodyshop this week. The trucking company is not of my choice. I didn't know they do not have the tracking system as most shipping they do is for contracted large companies that do regular shipments.
also I've already told you I'm taking care of this only on my own time, not during when I'm working as this is not for me nor who I work for. The bumper was taken to the shipper as promised when I had time last Tuesday.
I did not know your car is sitting at the bodyshop without a front bumper till you said so in your second to last PM to me on mbworld which is Sunday. You said you wanted to use alternate shipping company, but when I replied you with the approx size of the box and how much UPS charge for oversized box ($290) and said if you want to pay the difference I can take care of it even it's using my own time, BUT you did not respond to that resolution and continue to press on for "tracking number"
anyone who buys anything knows there are unexpected delays and in this case it is the trucking company that had the delay.
and I said the trucking company said it'll be shipped Monday. whether it is again delayed it's out of my control. Like I've already PM you and replied on the same topic in mbworld. You can give the owner of the trucking company a call which I've already included in the PMs.

how is FrankW liable for how it is shipped if he is just helping out a friend? take it up with the owner, not Frank.
also, the owner of the bumper can choose how its shipped, not you. you're buying it doesnt mean the seller has to live and die by your choices. this aint the tirerack, its an individual owner.
yeah, i can read. fact is,Frank was doing someone else a favor. the owner of said bumper. Frank isnt making a penny on this. so maybe this guy should relax and wait a minute before crying all over the internet.
What is ridiculous is when some transaction goes sour between two BW members one feels compelled to post about it.
Don’t title a thread “Benzworld members READ THIS !!!” I though it was about some exciting new development in the world of MB, not another stupid dispute.
Read This: WE DON’T CARE!
Buy and sell at your own risk, if things go South don’t bitch about it in a public forum. Do emails or phone calls or whatever but please do not pollute this forum with such nonsense.
now it's getting ridiculous...jk
