Default Dealer Cost Car Audio

Just a heads up, I ordered some Dynamat from this company off the web about six weeks ago. Said it would ship in about 7 days. After many attempts to contact them, finally got the "out of stock" runaround. Several weeks of that, finally when I told them to cancel the order, was promised it would ship by Wednesday of that week. Decided to go on with the order, two weeks later still no product or even an email.

Beware if you decide to deal with them.

Avoid like the plague!!!!

This pops up every so often - always unhappy people.

Out of 300+ reviews, they're rated 2.5 out of 10:

They have a few other websites too.... wish I could find the site which lists which websites are related... and all of the other sites have really bad feedback as well. I almost bought a $3k monitor from one of their sites... they were one of the last who listed the monitor as "in stock", but fortunately I read a review about the site and realized in stock doesn't necessarily mean the same thing to them as it does to the rest of us!

Next time order from me, please, I have it and ship the same or next business day and honestly my BXT II is every bit as good as DE but easier to install, I promise

You get 37.5 sq ft of ultra premium mat for $89, real dealer cost!

---------

It makes me so dang mad when companies pull crap like this, I never have and would never but I have had huge sales rushes that put caused me to be out of stock for a week or two, something I really hate to have happen but only 3 times in 10+ years now.

I had a tough 8 weeks trying get a straight answer from them on a JL Audio amp I bought for $698.00. I couldn't get an answer on when the amp would ship, so I finally asked for a refund. 4 weeks later and right after I had my credit card company file a dispute, I finally got my refund.

Not worth the time or trouble you have to deal with.

I also sell amps and speakers and have the cool stuff I like to use, in stock and great prices

What I do not have I get in two days.

I AM NOT trying to make a sale, I am making a point.

I also have products in the works that are far behind my expected delivery dates, unfortunately but working on them the best I can, I am not perfect but I do work my **** off to get done what I say I will though sometimes I do not have control of the timeline as much as I wish I could(If I had a bunch of clones everything would be done ASAP!)

Sincerely
Rick

They're known douchebags. If you would of looked on any of the major car audio sites and asked around, you'd of found this out and not be scammed.

not doing your homework = fail.

Always google the company you're buying from. They are well known for giving people problems.
