Title: Pba1g11 has not delivered
Post by: SpareK on May 29, 2008, 01:05:10 PM
He owes me 9 grips that where back ordered since the 20th of April. Two months later I still don't have them. He PM'ed me saying the backorder arrived and asked if I wanted to place another order or ship them seperately. I replied sepaerately. That was two weeks ago. I have not heard anything more. Has anyone else had a bad deal with this member? I asked him to check inventory on 120 grips I wanted to order, but now I wonder how long I would have to wait on these.

I'm not making excuses for Mike .. he's done real good by me! If you check the Tour under the Central area you'll see he's been VERY busy for the last couple of months!

I realize it's over a month but I really think he HAS NOT been back in the shop!

There are a handful of folks on this site I would trust with a signed blank check, he is one of them. He gets busy, sometimes the order from his distributor is backed up but he'll do right by his word, always has and always will.

JMO.

I have been trying to reach Michael for a week or so to order some more grips and he has not answered my PM's. I will say that I have bought grips from him many times before and never had any issues.. He is just a very busy guy..

Uhh, 20th of April = just over 1 month, not "Two months later".  But, he still should have shipped them by now, since he said they were in.

When I read this thread, I first went to look at the names of the Tour Trial members. I thought he might be bowling, but he wasn't there.

Several people have mentioned that Mike is trustworthy. I also say that. Is there a phone number at which you can reach him? I'd suggest calling him. I don't have his latest number handy or I'd send it to you.

I don't know why he has not contacted you or jkiser01.

Monster, you are absolutely right, it was a typo. I checked the date on receiver and it was March 20. I'm sure Mike is a fine human being, I just think 2 months and 10 days is completely unacceptable.

I totally agree.  Especially if it was the 20th of March.

Well for "ONE" this is probably the "FIRST" time there have been ANY problems with Mike and his service, that I can remember !!!!

 And, that is "unlike" what triggerman has done (or not done) to some in the last year  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's up for debate.  I can attest personally to people that have had issues.  Those people understand and are willing to wait 1 or so months until the stuff has been delivered without making a mess of the situation.

Point is that there's a story for any and all occasions.  I've waited on payments for 2 months from people that were known here and as long as communication is there...that's fine.

I'm not saying Mike is bad....no.  I've benefits from his service in the past and will in the future.  I just find it odd, that's all, when bashing is done, it's done selectively.

Does anybody know Mike Cimba. It is not like him to not fill an order and his web site www.bowlbetternow.com is not up either. He has not replied to my PM. Not like him, hope all is well.

I have had a private message out there since 5/22 wanting to buy grips/slugs and it has not been read and the emails I have sent to him have all come back as undeliverable.. I have bought from him multiple times and never had any issues.. I also hope all is well as this is certainly not like him at all..
