I have to say I personally know George now for a year or two. First off I would like to say as Tony said earlier, George would give you the shirt off his back. Second I would like to add I'm not taking sides but George is the kind of person that if he said he sent the packages, then they were definitely sent. I choose my friends very carefully and have to add he is a stand up kind of guy. I'm sure you realized this as he offered you lunch. So why would you even post this?
If I were shipping something, I use priority mail because it gives you a tracking number. I had someone from Australia ask where their item was. I told them it was on the way. Finally after 43 days they got it. Another thing is to insure the item. Of course we all know how the post office works if they have to pay.

it sounds to me like George is/has done everything he can to resolve this.

Hi George,
Mark F. here ...I still can't believe this guy was talking about you.
Me being new to Spider ownership this last spring, George was one of the first people I reached out to for parts and the first person here I've met in real life. I was only this last Sunday speaking of how kind and generous and infectiously enthusiastic he was on meeting him, when explaining the parts situation of these cars to other friends.
In contrast to several other sources I've met, I wouldn't hesitate to send George cash or a signed blank check to cover a parts request.
Sincerely,
Mark

No need to ask anyone for a pm. I'm the person that Kurt is talking about. I sir am not a thief or a deadbeat. I am also not a vendor. Just a guy with a hobby. Seems that I didn't pay enough attention to Kurts email to suit him. Seems he may be infering that I did not ship something. I sir was very suprised when he showed up at my house and told me that his items did not arrive. Never had that happen before. Seems that the second package also did not arrive. Well I always try to do the right thing. So I replaced the items that did not arrive with the exception of 3 small parts. I told kurt that when we took apart the next parts car I would have the parts. No he did not ask for a refund which I would have gladly given him. As a matter of fact he stayed and had lunch with a bunch of our club members at my home. Not the kind of behavior you would expect from someone trying to cheat you is it? Well we took apart a parts car and I now have the parts. He is coming on the 17th to pick up the parts when he is down visiting his cousin. Kurt knows that I am not a vendor and that this is our club hobby. If I was a vendor and had ignored his emails or refused him a refund he would have a right to be pissed. But that is not the case.
Now sir what may I do for you that you would require a pm for my information? Feel free to pm me your phone number and I will give you a call. I will be glad to answer any of your questions as I have nothing to hide nor have I done anything dishonorable.
Regards, George

Hi Kurt,
Sorry you had to cancel. Family obligations come first. Do you have a different address I can mail this to? I also have an additional parts car now. What were the additional parts you needed. I know you were looking for a sway bar. Regards, George
