I purchased something through their site (mc to sc s13/s14 ss line) two days ago and paid the money, but no response from them... and... i emailed both their sales email and customer support email and no frickin response either, in fact I get a message fail delivery first 4 hours, then 8 hours then 24hours return... wth?

Help? :down:

I've dealt with them in the past. The owner comes highly recommended per zilvia, yet my experience was very similar to yours. Do not expect quick turn around on a product or even a response via email. I waited about 3 weeks for a master to slave line without the product being shipped. On the plus side, my money was reimbursed quickly once I requested it.

[a_ahmed]

wtf so you never even got the product?

[txrxs]

After 3 weeks I requested my money back. He was happy to do it and the request was filled promptly.

[flip3d]

it takes them a little bit to ship but everything is top quality. i bought all my lines from them. brakes, clutch, and turbo lines.

[a_ahmed]

How the hell do I contact them lol.. their email doesn't work :-/ I don't want my money back, I already paid it was like 60USD or something mc to sc s13/s14 ss clutch line... i want it lol... that's why I bought it :-/ Bypasses damper, no hardline/soft line bs, just one line...

Yea, weird, I used e-mail and got ahold of him no problem, there was an issue with him forgetting to send them out, but then he overnighted them to me, so it all worked out.

[a_ahmed]

Yea?...

All I got was four x2 messages (one on sales and one on customer service email) along the style of this:

Warning: message 1K3VWI-0005Xp-7u delayed 24 hours

[Propaganda]

try this email:
[email protected]

I couldn't get in contact with the emails on his site and he PM'd me that email. I ordered a 0.06 restrictor fitting and he's getting it to me in two days after it was ordered (for $10 for shipping, it'd better be!)

Harp is good, honest people - he's just very busy.

[burrcise]

I purcahsed lines from them last week and got them yesterday. Top notch lines, but a little slow in sending the product out. Don't worry about Harp scamming you, your order will come.

[a_ahmed]

Okay thanks, I just emailed there this very second lets see what happens :)

burrcise - lol, well as long as I got the whole of zilvia on my side supporting me on this I trust he is good too then :D... I just never dealt with them befoe, so I don't know :) I'm used to click buy, get shippment when getting things online haha...

I just like to get response/communication/shippments when I pay lol.. I had a terrible experience with ls-auto that pissed me off a year ago... 3-4 weeks without any communication (actually I never got any email back) paypal reimbursed me lol.

Hi

Your order was made on June 2nd, it will go out tomorrow.

I don't know why your other emails were bouncing back, but I got your last one and I responded :)

FYI: in case anyone orders anything from June 7th to June 15th, orders will be processed when I return. Sorry for the delay. But I needs a vacation :)

Harp

[a_ahmed]

Yeah I got your email thanks bro :) Woohoo

[kaotic]

Once you get in contact with them they are great.. but thats the hard part.. getting in contact with them...

Harp never fails to deliver! Best service! You'll find few people as good as him.

[a_ahmed]

My advice is to fix your mail servers, cause none of those emails work it all bounced back now it said 48hours delay :-/

Good thing I was provided an email in this thread otherwise we'd never get in touch haha... oh and when you ship hook me up with tracking number :)
Thanks! :D

Harp is good people.

A little patience goes a long way.

Hello Everyone,

Thanks for the kind words. Just wanted to let you all know that Taka is now a lower volume higher quality outfit whose roots are in customer service. Yes we take a week to deliver. BUT if you email me first and let me know that you need it overnighted, its usually never a problem. Taka is moving to position itself as a provider for high quality custom machined fittings (Taka restrictor fittings), Setrab/Earls Oil and Power Steering Cooler kits, custom tubo line/cooler jobs, and of course the Taka Lines that I FIRST put onto the market in 2001 with the help of old school members Omar and Wayne.

Just for points of reference, my email contact address is [email protected] I will look into why the emails are bouncing back. But I will also provide my cell phone number (i doubt anyone anymore would do that....would they??). Its 909-633-6661. However, please since I am so busy, I normally respond much quicker to text messages. I normally do not pick up.

[S13SilviaGirl]

Yes, Harp is awesomeness! Glad things worked out. :)

[redsuns3838]

yeah harp was great when i ordered turbo lines. like he says, email him ahead of time and he'll get them out to you quick. i paid a little extra and he next day-d my turbo lines.
then i went back to him for my break lines and clutch line. good quality stuff.
just communicate with the guy

Did you try his cell phone?

[a_ahmed]

No I haven't tried his cell... I don't have a home phone only a cell, long distance would kill me lol...

[VROOOM]

Harp is good, honest people - he's just very busy.

is this the same Harp that had a red S13 convertible a long time ago??

[DrtyRat]

No I haven't tried his cell... I don't have a home phone only a cell, long distance would kill me lol...
Ummm Ok? Look, PM me your cell phone# and I'll text harp for you, and I'm not kidding. I don't want harp's name getting a bad rap b/c of this.
Joe

[a_ahmed]

I sent you a PM

[On2]

I got awesome turbo lines from them.

[a_ahmed]

Still waiting :-/ :(

[atom]

With all due respect man, if you aren't making an effort to contact him personally, what do you have to complain about? The dude posts his personal cell # on the board, it's not like he's tryin to duck you for 40 bucks. How much does a freakin text message cost in Canada? LOL

you didn't try the one he provided just a few posts above yours

[a_ahmed]

Uh you are a week behind thanks for being useful as always option zero. I emailed him on the yahoo one, thats where i got in touch with him once... but no communication since. Maybe you should read my posts? I don't have text messaging and my cell is only local, i cant imagine how much international calls from a cellie would be. I gave him my cellie number as well. So excuse me unless you bought something off him right now I dont see how you are helping me get in touch with him.

[OptionZero]

Maybe you should read your own posts.

None of them say you tried the correct, updated email address, although you did bitch about long distance calls and text messaging.

Perhaps the car game is too much for you and you should instead spend your money on upgrading your phone plan.

[a_ahmed]

Are you fucken retarded? I already reported your useful posts to the mods.

I obviously mailed him on the yahoo mail, if you did not notice aka read what I said. I did get in touch with him but no response since.

[OptionZero]

Show me the post where you explicitly stated you used the correct email address successfully.

With a normal human being I would have assumed you did it, but with you, I considered starting a new "internet communication" thread.

Like I said I DID get in touch with him but no communication since... he said he would send me a tracking number and that it should have shipped already but still nothing... said if it doesnt come on time will give me free.. but whatever... I'm just asking whats up... I dont 'need it' free I just like to get what I pay for...

[mrmephistopheles]

Ok, that's the end of this. Be patient and you'll get what you paid for. Quit getting antsy because a vendor didn't get back to you as fast as you wanted.
Stop making more drama than there needs to be.
