info on OP performance.

[jamie_eaton]

right guys im getting a little worried here!.
Im getting the runaround loads from this guy from op performance.
Was named officially pimped but recently changed it to this.
I ordered an apexi ecu and commander nearlly 2 months ago and no luck im getting!!.
Is in Warrington area cheshire, i still have the adress so im tempted to go up any day now and demand my money back.
any one heard any thing on this company or guy, he was selling itmes on ebay a little bit a go

Having exactly the same problem mate (see my thread on rotary chit-chat). I\'m still waiting on my Power FC after almost 2 months. Funnily enough, I spoke to the fella yesterday, he\'s supposed to be sending me a refund today....we shall see. He\'s now trading as oppjapparts, presumably becuase he got kicked off for messing people around.

[fro]

there was a thread about this guy on the sxoc a while ago. There were several other people who either haven\'t received goods or refunds. Sounds like bad news

[jamie_eaton]

I said to him yesterday i will be coming up and he said i couldnt till after thurs as he was getting married.
funny thing was he said the ecu would be with me by thursday, if not then to be in contact with him.
I dont know but maybe sounds like he is leaving the uk? getting married and piising off! do i take the risk and wait till thurs or go up tonight, im getting really foooked off now!!, ,,,,, just rang me now!!! saying i can have a refund WHAT!!! my money has been sat in his account for nothing ,, no way god im not having a very good day.

thread moved to the right place.

Carry on...

Jamie, do you have the address of this "company" as i live in Warrington so may do a drive-by and see if he really is shut for a wedding, im sure you going down with a copy of his emails acknowledging he hasnt sent it and the receipts of purchase through paypal etc and threatening in his face to ring the police may help

[MillSpeed]

Just PM\'d you this fool\'s address. Let us know if you find anything out, it\'d be really really appreciated :wave

[JL1978]

i wouldnt wait till thursday seems very strange and he has done it to quite a few ppl.... maybe hes planning on doing a runner with all of the cash and theres no wedding.... I would take a drive up tonight if i were you:(

[<--rYaN-->]

I was just saying to Millspeed via pm that this guy lives a stones throw away from me judging by his address, i think a few people in the area having a mini-meet outside his house would worry him :rollin

[MillSpeed]

It\'s good to know we have \'agents\' in the area, cheers ryan!:wave Will possibly be rolling up from Port Talbot with some mates if this refund fails to materialise.

Literally hang him upside down, until the money falls back out of his pocket... Sounds like a thief!

[gadj]

This sounds bad. Looks like he\'s about to do a runner.

Thing is, the police are useless, unless of course you\'re doing 80+ on an empty A road.

Sounds like a scam - set up a few companies for a while, get the money and head off.

Best approach has to be to burn him out Figuratively speaking of course.

Just an update for anyone looking for him. Had a litte nosey 2 days running for this guys street, now i got the map off multimap but its not the easiest place to find because it appears to be in the middle of nowhere and the directions werent too clear. Anyhow think i have a better idea of where it is now but its a case of trial and error, will look again maybe tonight or tomorrow, then report on if he\'s moving etc. In fact probably tonight to see if any wedding celebrations are going on haha

Rite a MAJOR update for anyone reading this.

Found the house, (was going wrong direction on map :rollin )

Was actually a pretty nice house and estate, one of the better ones in Warrington, fairly new. I expected a chav estate with a chavved up corsa etc with a school boy selling them lol.

But i was parked outside his house for a minute getting his licence plate on his Celica GT4, and just about to take a picture of it when he came out.

Smartly dressed mid-late 20\'s (i.e. no trackie and hoodie, jeans, shirt, nice shoes...) And first thing he said was "what have you ordered??" lol.

I said "nothing mate, im just checking out where you lived because a few people have ordered parts and not received them so i was just seeing if you were packing up and moving off"

He was very reassuring, genuine sounding/looking guy, not defenceive or anything like you would expect from someone dodgy. He opened up his garage to show all the parts he had etc like intercoolers etc, all with Jap writing all over the boxes so he obviously imports them. Said he was having some delays/problems with his supplier and everyone was getting on his case but there wasnt much he could do at the moment, fair enough he does have a young kid (noted toys and sticker in car window) so that bits the truth. He explained he got married yesterday as well and all the car parts thing is a "ball-ache" at the moment, but he has ads in magazines etc.

The fact he was willing to show me his stock without me even suggesting it and also the way he acted makes me think maybe he is having problems with his supplier, but still thats no excuse not to give you all a refund.

He asked who was it who hadnt received there powerfc etc i could only think of Jamies name, he said he knew you etc and had spoken to you, he mentioned Chris as well, but i just looked puzzled because my mind had gone blank, (sorry mate!)

Anyhow thats that, inspector Ryan lol, I explained i wasnt trying to hassle him or anything but its down the road from me and saves everyone else a long trip, maybe its worth seeing him in person to put your minds at ease and discuss where to go from there?
