wow, hows this dude still alive... For real though it seems you might be running into problems with this a$$'s. Just call a lawyer to ask for advice if it gets worse, and If it does slap him with a lawsuit because it seems you wont get a damn thing from these guys.
Fry his fata$$ and get what you paid for!! |

Yeah I would have gotten a lawyer but they further raped me by putting a stipulation on the refund check, that when I cashed the check the matter was closed I could no longer pursue them. And being I had 10 grand invested with the engine, the stock engine, and the rental, i needed the money to buy the new engine. They really know how to screw you.

yeah, you got screwed, they sent you the wrong engine judging from your description.
its things like this that make me glad my aunt is a lawyer. what i would have done was inspect the engine while it was still on the delivery truck, and if its not exactly what they said they sold you, dont sign for it and tell the delivery company to return to sender. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

You see JabberWock, I think all of these responses are enough for me to NOT deal with ToySport. Go back to there and get what you ordered and not B.S you about restocking fees. He got me for $300 for some stupid restocking fee too.
About Mario yeah he is cool. I would seriously prefer dealing with him anyday (unless he gets like Joel). Then those extra little parts for the GT4 H&B that he SAID he would get them in a week thats B**LS**T!! HE told me the EXACT SAME THING. Ask Natalie too. I think she waited like 4 or more months for ALL her parts. I just hope that you make the right choice, don't get screwed like we have. And i'll see if i can go with you on Friday to ToySport. I do work but not until 2:30pm, if not we still have time. David |

Gosh....it seems like every place to get an engine is a sucky place. Is there any place that sells engines for our cars and doesn't suck?

Man, I originally was going to deal with Venus-Auto....it seems it would have been so much better to just deal with them.....even though they are so shady with their info.
Anyways...its a real good thing that I paid most of the stuff with credit card, because with my good credit(easy for me to cancel a payment), I could mess with toysport a lot. I don't think I will return the engine, since it looks like it is a great engine in good condition. BUT I would at least want most of my money back or at least be provided with a FMIC and a lot of other things they could give me....hehe, especially since I need them anyways with the swap. Also, ToyCeli8, we could do so many things to get stuff from them...we shouldn't like ruin them right away...lets try to turn things against them and make it our advantage. 1. We could threaten first with the Better Business Bureau which is not a big deal for them but if they don't comply with that, we will just report them anyways. 2. Lawyer is kinda not worth the money, but I can get my friend who is a lawyer to right them a letter and stuff, but that probably won't make them budge if they are stubborn. 3. I forgot but there is a way they could get inspected and get their License revoked. 4. Get everyone from 6gc.net, get some metal bats, get some tools, and Beat the hell out of Joel, steal all their engines and performance parts. eh...go all out and steal their rims and cars. They got a real nice Aristo there that I would take in a flash......they leave so many things out in their junkyard...man I would be so tempted to steal if I lived close by. |

I got a good ass deal from Toysport, then again I'm raised in a family of lawyers, so I guess I got three motors for the price of one. Toysport is stupid so are the people that think they can't play them like a silly game.

well, not everyone wants to play the run-around game with stupid people. Especially if your money is on the table.

Hey man,
Getting a lawyer is perfectly fine and worth the money. I'd rather pay 500-1000 to get the correct stuff and maybe have the hope of this place getting in some deep trouble. Im not all about suing, but this place sounds like they need a wake up call and a lawyer is def the place to start. |

Well yeah, A lawyer at first is worth it, but if you sue in the long run....most of the money you get will have to go to the lawyer. Unless all the people who got jipped by toysporty pitch in for a lawyer and all of us get a big sum of money from the fata$$

The GT4 hood will also help on the air to air intercooler... helps prevent heatsoak.
BTW... I can't personally stand Joel either but he does check these forums from time to time.. He has mentioned these forums before to me over the phone... so I would really suggest watching what you guys say about him cuz it could come back to haunt you - expecially if you persue legal action.. but since I dont plan on ever dealing with toysport agian..... JOEL YOU ARE A PIECE OF SH*T~ -------------------- 99 project version 3.0.. hello SEMA 2010 =) |

The comment about getting him before he eats... I dont think I have ever been there when he is not eating. I called the other day for something and asked for Joel, he talks to me briefly and says to call him back in 20 minutes for the pricing cause he has to look it up. I call back like 30 minutes later and ask for him again, "Joel isn't here today".
I think to myself, maybe I talked to someone else that sounded the same. "What did you need?" the person on the phone asks. "I need some pricing on parts" "OK, one second please" Ok so I get transfered and another guy picks up, "Toysport" "I need pricing on some parts" "Oh one second please" Transfered again "Toysport" GUESS WHO WAS ON THE DAMN PHONE! JOEL OF COURSE! But wait, wasnt he not there? They just love to play games there! And for those of you that dont know, Toysport is not very big, there inside office part is about the size of a regular living room in a house. They transfered me 2 times, I talked to 3 people in a room that size! I'd be willing to drive from san jose to do a Joel A$$ beating! |
