Buyer Beware!!! Paul, I think forum members should know both good and bad about a vender. Wouldn't you agree??? (Copy of earlier posting>>>)I believe you can not ignore the negative experiences. Someone reading this thread would do might do business solely because of this note. Example: When I saw West Coast Corvette on your list, I most strongly recommend buyer "BEWARE". Just this past 30 days, members in our club had to call to get credit for core charges applied from orders at Carlisle. Two years ago I personally got a court judgement against them for ~$1,600 for mis-representation. After five years of experience with West Coast Corvette, I think buyer beware is a gift to them. Since they have turned their nose even at a court judgement, I plan now to seek the Vermont Attorney General to restrict them from doing business in Vermont since their actions warrants this step. As a forum member, I want to know the good and the bad so that I can make an informed decision. If you post only the good experiences, there is no motivation for a vender to take care of his problems, and no benefit to other members either. Personally I look very much to information off the forum, but a censored thread as you suggests, has much lacking in my opinion.

I'm confused :confused: , are you saying WCC is a bad vendor? I thought they did a great job though I'll admidt I've only purchased once from them....... so far. Shipping time, packing, and price were all excellent.
