Over the past few days, I have talked with him multiple times about the recent Kenne Bell I purchased among other items. He has been extremely helpful and is full of advice. He's tried it all, the way it sounds, and led me in the right direction. I'm sure he'll be just as helpful when I'm installing. Just giving props to great customer service skills. Thanks

Hey man....

THANK YOU...I VERY VERY much appreciate the kind words. It makes my 16 hour days worth it...

I have to say, you asked ALL of the right questions. You are very much the customer we at TPE love to work with.. Honest, upfront, and very intelligent. When you didnt know something, you weren't afraid to say so.
And when we didn't feel you needed to purchase the part, we told you not to buy it..

Now if you dont return the tools i'm mailing out to you as a loaner, i'm gonna put a hurtin to you..

I look forard to working with you in the future..

OK, Point taken.. From now on, i'll only take your money..

BTW, you forgot to mention the part where is send people their parts WITHOUT them paying for it.. Then I have them pay me whenever they get a chance..

I've been known to ship 6 grand worth of supercharger parts, and not ask for payment until its darn near ready for install..

So im not all talk. Speaking of someone who owes me money.. (i know, i haven't sent you the invoice yet)

... but he may be getting too busy. I'd like to know the secret of how you all get him on the phone!

I was supposed to drop my vette off at his shop this weekend during a Vegas trip, to have him install the supercharger I bought from him in June. At the end of August he said he'd send me an install quote. Since then I've not been able to get him on the phone, and have two voice mails, two Forum PM's and one email go unanswered.

Even though I gotta find a local shop to do the install..... I must say I was treated well during the purchase process and the times he called me about shipping delays, backorders, etc.

Just bummed I don't get to meet Jeff this weekend and get a peak at his project car.

No hard feelings Jeff, I'm still a fan...

Yup..... one that he gave me at least.....

I wasn't trying to complain, just meant to comment on how busy he has gotten.

I'm glad his business has gotten soo good. It speaks to his knowledge and customer service. Even though I got lost in the shuffle, I know he didn't do it on purpose. He probably even isn't aware it happened.

As passionate as I am about my Corvette hobby (Ok... addiction) it's just a car. I don't feel as I have been wronged and I have moved on.

I just thought relating my experience, followed by my words of support, would be a strong testimonial...
