Oh man, don't even get me started on this subject.. Even with parts, he would take a credit card payment for the parts but wouldn't actually order them until he saw the money hit the account. We almost got into a fist fight because I was trying to order parts for a customer that had just paid and he didn't want to order until a week later.. Then the customer would call asking where their shit was and he'd come up with some gay ass excuse like UPS messed up, etc, etc..

I really don't know what to do cuz I can't afford a lawyer and I lost my last legal battle against the last shop that ripped me off. I'm going up there tommorow to check it out to see if they are even open. Anyone wanna come up wit me to extract revenge if he is not there?
Honestly IMO your best option would be to pull it out of there. Take the loss, work on fighting it later if need be. Just depends on how important your motor is to you.

Yup. Chris' last paycheck was supposed to be ~$1800, the prick sent him a check for $26. Fucking Bastard.

Yeah he was, it would have been a great shop if it wasn't for him.




Good luck taking him to court. Hope everything works out for you.

Hi Mark! I've been meaning to call you, just been busy lately. So he finally got shut down huh? I hope he's dead. If not, I wonder if I should bother taking him to court for my last paycheck. It would be worth it, but I doubt he would actually pay. Fucking know-nothing, piece of shit, cocksucker. I should have made a copy of the key. It really doesn't matter cuz the alarm system was a joke, you could break right in. I accidently put in the wrong code one morning and there was just, what sounded like, a car alarm siren going off and no cops or a call or anything, lol. Oh well, good. I knew this day would come.
