ALL I have to say is that with a statement like that, you better come clean and post your issue and have it dealt with.. You have left this open as slander and . LAPD is a very good sponsor and has also provided almost everyone on here with great products and great service. Maybe youre just looking to stir the pot ... Not the best way to open a thread..

Just a thought, but this kind of vague post doesn't do anyone any good. I haven't dealt with them, but judging from the overwhelming majority of satisfied customers on this forum, I wouldn't hesitate. Have you tried taking a deep breath and trying to work out your problems directly? I don't mean to be condescending, sometimes I get aggravated and find it best to back off and try again when I'm a little more at ease.

No idea what kind of issue you are having with them but I have done 8 or 10 different transactions with LAPD, mostly from Canada and I have never had any problems

This doesn't sound like anything that would come from Shawn, that's for sure! I've heard only good things about him and LAPD. They even started carrying Borla Stingers again!

I hate to get into detail, but can say that they ARE LIARS and BEWARE!
The internet is an easy place to get screwed!
Dude!! Ya can't come on here and slam a sponsoring vendor and not tell us why If you have a legit complaint, spill it! we are all we hate bad service as much as the bad guy but this reminds me of one of my kids That conversation goes somthing like this:

Nickey is bad

Chris, why is Nicky bad?

Bacause

Bacause why honey?

Just because!!

Get the Idea?

Tell the whole story or dont post it. No offense, but ya gotta come clean!

Whether a supporting vendor or another Forum member is involved, Forum rules/guidelines require that a good-faith effort be made to resolve issues offline before bringing them to an open thread on the Forum.

If a dispute cannot be resolved offline, the Forum rules/guidelines allow a disgruntled customer to make one factual post on the issue and then the thread is left open until the other part has a chance to post his/her version of the facts or the thread degenerates into a rant.
