Bruce called me and personally apologized for the delay and refunded my money back. He said that his machine shop is keeping him so busy and trying to sell these used parts in the background has been troublesome for him. Nice guy and appreciated his response and the way he handled it. |

Ordered an air ride kit and disc brake kit on April 3rd 2015. It's the end of September and still can't get all my stuff it's been one thing after another he want respond to my emails or my calls . I spent over 6 grand with Vintage VDuubs and Bruce and would just like any kind of response. You can go a month and get no reply. The parts I got look good but can't assemble anything because I have no bolts or mounting hardware . I've tryed to do right and give him a chance but damn let me know something please. |

Banned pending an outcome to a situation I and a buyer have been emailing them about with no response since Sept. 17th.
The buyer's situation has been going on much, much longer. |
Tracking #s were provided and he responded to another issue as well so he has been unbanned.
I have had 2 different people tell me that they have friends with outstanding orders. If they want to email me directly I will pass it on to this seller. _________________ How to Post Photos

Hi, from Norway
Been trying to reach VVD for weeks/months...not replying..
Bought som parts July 18,2015 ($2,471.83)
Soon after got an email from paypal that my order was marked as delivered , by seller.
Contacted VVD on Aug 9 and asked what this was about: some kind of communication "breakdown" between me/you/paypal?
Then after several attempts from me trying to reach him, he finally answered on Sep 1,2015
quote : Jan ive spent the last few days pushing the guys on it were ready to ship.. ill send info thanks
Well.. tried contacting him several times after this but haven`t heard anything.,or recieved any parts or shipping number for that matter.
Opened a dispute on PayPal today Oct 8, 2015
Hoping this will get him to reply back to me, all I really want is to get the parts I ordered.
Somebody HELP |

kinda sad that everytime things seems to move, its because a 3rd party got involved...
You do have interesting items available, and the price is good, but its hard to pull the trigger when you read story like this.... |

Dear Jan,
Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience you may have experienced in respect to your order.
At Vintage, we take pride in ensuring our customer’s satisfaction. Unfortunately, we did not meet your expectations and we want to own up to that. Upon a review of the situation, we found the cause to be from staff changes, misplaced order forms and an overflow of orders we could not keep up with. I'm new to this company and unfortunately was not a staff member when you placed the order but I can assure you that I am catching up with the office accounts to resolve this asap.
As a testament to our strive for perfection, we have taken steps to ensure that this will not happen again by training new staff and applying improved office organizational systems.
We ensure you that all further situations will be resolved and we will contact you today personally about your case.
Again, we apologize for this serious oversight and will take care of you as best we can.
We deeply value your relationship with Vintage and are committed to providing you with the highest level of service. If you have any further questions or comments regarding this matter, please feel free to call or email me to the contact information in your email.
Our sincere apologies,
Andrea |

Dear Dan,
Your comments regarding the service you received from our shop are very important to us. We want customers to enjoy their merchandise from Vintage, so your post of a negative experience with the company is a serious concern for us. First, let us express our deepest apologies. You deserve only the best service, especially with communication. Second, we are reviewing previous training with staff and will take appropriate actions to prevent this from happening again. In the mean time, please be patient with me as I get the office, shop and accounts up to par. I'm still learning the office so I want to thank you for being patient. I will personally take care of your account from now on so that the owner can take care of fulfilling orders.
I will provide contact info in the email.
Andrea |

Hi Andrea
2 packages can't cover both suspensions they two large Bruce sent me 5 pics of different boxes.
Where's the list if Parts that u shipped u promised to send it two days ago. Another promise? Why don't you post it on here so people can see what u sent? Does it take so long, what are u hiding I will post pics later of the invoice and what I recieved.
And the email confirming my goods were ready to ship and the mail of how my goods are stuck at customs with no tracking number. |
