I'm the proud owner of a product with a Money back Guarantee But Since I bought it from Street Unit with a credit card its and 80% money back guarantee ! or of course 100% in store credit . Do people generally pay other ways these days ? Is this the plan ?

Well this is an edit .

I got a call back from Street unit they are treating this as a special case the Cobb AP that is . Only a few people are trying to return them as of yet . They are working with Cobb to get the full refund there are a bunch of fee's that have to get eaten by the Vendor obviously that sucks for them .

i saw that on their site. it also says within 3 days blah blah blah, so I thought the AP return policy might override their standard return policy that applies to all thier stuff.

did you call them up and this is what they said about it?

i think thats cuase they have to pay the credit card company- or paypal a percentage even if you return it.. what did you return?
 
Its not returned yet . They called me back and told me they are treating this as a special case . Looks like they are backing up the guarantee . I get hot headed too quick I guess . Its just that its so much money and then you find out that your out 150$ it tends to make you a bit upset . I can Imagine how the vendors feel when you return a product .

So far there Customer service seems pretty good they did spend a lot of time with me one the phone .

If a refund is issued to the card (or paypal) the percentage that the financial company took is also refunded.
 
thanks for the follow up ccann26! glad they pulled thru and are making a special case for this product.
 
Hmm.. I just posted mine in the for sale forum. New in box. Because SU pulled that on me too!! Called them, they told me they wouldnot honor the full refund! They will get no more business from me. They told me to call cobb. Cobb told me to call SU.........

...as far as sympathy for fees go. I worked retail for a few years, their fees will get refunded. And even if they dont, its call the cost of doing business.

street unit is a less than savory company. Ever since the fiasco with the intake manifolds back in the day, they have lost a lot of street rep and credibility with the forums. Sure they carry a lot of parts for us, but that isnt the only thing consumers are concerned with.

I called them up a while back to get some pistons and they flat out told me that they did not want my business and told me to go bark up a tree. Needless to say I was shocked and appalled that a vendor would stoop so low.

I am glad they are banned from this forum, this place is a much beter place without them.

Easy tiger....They actually seem to do good business after that little fiasco..Even if they are banned here.

And to be honest..With the fight you got into with them..If I was them..I woudln't take your greenbacks either.

Nothing personal...I am just telling you how I see it.
If you wouldn't have told them who you were..they would have sold to you easily.

But whatev.
 
Thats awesome that they are banned from this forum, I don't personally like the way they have conducted business...

I am all about free shipping however, if i have to pay a little more for shipping at a vendor with much better customer service then I'm all for it

I knew what they did back then. That was low sheistery and unexcusable. A professional company does not pawn off items as their own custom item when that is a flat out LIE. Regardless of the mitigation they "accomplished" post-intake manifold incident, their reputation is tarnished with meas well as with many many other forum members.

Yeah, I dont blame them necessarily for turning my business down, but you should have heard the way they talked with me. It really was shocking. Cussing and everything at me. I was seriously shocked. They acted like pissy high school boys trying to get into a fight - and not like a stand up professional company. Furthermore, I did nothing but elucidate the truth. I could see if I was spreading nasty rumors that had absolutely no validity whatsoever, but there was accuracy to my posts. As vendors, they hold themselves out to be made critical of by consumers. That is the price of business.

As the addage goes, "If you cant stand the heat, get out of the fire."

Umm..Dude..do you not remember....I probably had as many posts in that deal as you did.

If you ask me..your friggin not to bright for telling them who you were when trying to buy something...did you think you would get a better deal after starting that shitstorm?

I mean seriously..think about it.

And your STILL Bitching about them..but they suck so bad that you tried AGAIN to buy from them.....Where is the Smiley....oh yeah....here it is.
