Question Flashoptions.com

Has anyone here dealt with this company, they have decent prices and I'll probably buy from them if anybody has had good experiences with them.

www.flashoptions.com
Any feedback is appreciated, thanks.

This is the letter I wrote to attempt to see if they would work with me, but they won't so **** 'em.

Hi my name is Ed and I was looking at your RB20Det Front clip shipped for 1500 and that is a really good price and I want to do business with you. After looking at a lot of different forums and doing some research I have seen a lot of complaints of people either claiming they never received anything after more than 6+ months, as well as people saying you guys were a legitimate business. It's hard to trust a company that is not within the United States, and even harder when there are so many complaints about your service. You guys have good prices, and I would like to order from you, but what peace of mind can you offer me? I would be willing to purchase this motor and many more in the future, as this is what I do for a living, if you would be willing to do business through Escrow.com, which would ensure the transaction goes smoothly. I would cover the escrow fees, and believe that this could prove to be a good relationship, hope to hear from you soon as I do want to purchase this from you. Thank you in advance

Dear Sir, Yes we do have it..
It's hard we sell more than 1300 clips in 2003.. only a few complains, I can't say those are false allegation but it's true. Some are lost in cargo, but still all cargo's have insurance .. So at the end some customer ends up getting either money back or a new clip. We are legit business people in this field for 3 years and still running strong.
If some customer aren't happy they can contact my contacts in canada to order clips, It cost much more but still they get their clip.

What i can do is 70% upfront remaining 30% - extra USd100 service on this.


*FLY & FAST USD580 - 30 days shipping option or ECONOMY USD450 45-65 days option* INSURANCE,FUMIGATION,CRATING INCLUDED*
If we can do anything for you or you have any questions, please don't
hesitate to let us know.
We are looking forward to hearing from you.

*PRICE MATCH* -- We price match any internet stores.
We're the cheapest and
we're sure we got the best prices on the net with some of the rarest clips and engines you can find.
THANK YOU!
