Wondering if I'm the only one!

TJ is Notorious about not keeping his word.
I'm speaking from experience.
I spoke to TJ over the phone a little over 3 weeks ago in discussion about ordering a set of Deavers springs with powder coat, an Icon bump stop, and the 3rd brake light.
During our discussions, I requested the he send me an invoice, so I could forward the funds to pay for these items.
In our discussions, I also reminded him that very soon I'll be going ahead with the rest of the mods of a complete set of Icon 3" shocks, both front and rear.
All in all, this is well in excess of over $10,000.00 in just parts.
To my dismay, I've yet to hear back from TJ, nor have I seen the Invoice as yet. (No! It's not in my spam folder either)
And! I must say, this is not the first time he has been tardy in getting back to me in regards to business.
Guess he is too busy to reply!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As an FYI TJ has been out of the country last week and won't be back until this weekend

Im sorry you've had this experience with GJ Motorsports, it is by no means intentional or how we want to conduct business. We strive to always put the customer first and take the time to get the job done right. We're a small business with only two people balancing our day jobs and our passion. I understand your frustration with this build order and appreciate your patience in letting us make it right.

Please direct message me so I can look into the situation.

>>> As an FYI TJ has been out of the country last week and won't be back until this weekend <<<

This verbal conversation between TJ and myself took place over the phone on Monday, July the 9th.
My request! SEND ME A BILL, so I PAY for the items we discussed, hence to put things in motion.

>>> We're a small business with only two people balancing our day jobs and our passion <<<

Only 2 persons, and yet my order fell through the crack!
Had I not made this post, I would be still in the dark.

In confirmation to my observation about TJ's RELIABILITY.

I'm yet to hear from TJ.
Don't know if it's personal, or just very poor Business practice.
One thing I'm absolutely sure about is that my money isn't burning a hole in my pocket.

The dude never took your money, move onto a new vendor! I would understand if he had taken your money and then ****** off, never to be heard from again.

Freedom Motorsports can hook you up with everything that you need.

NE Ford is trying to resolve your issue but you’re still complaining. They don’t have you’re money so take it elsewhere. Call some other vendors that can get you the same parts you’re looking for and move on.

Never said that the man is a thief.

NE Ford himself said to me that " This is something he'll let TJ resolve. "
How comes it is still left up to NE Ford to resolve?!!!
Has anyone noticed! TJ is quiet?!!!

To close this out I have the new third brake light from GJ and had some issues with the light pulling loose from the cab with the OEM hardware. I sent a note to GJ describing the issue and thought that I was on my own to find a solution. Today in mail arrives a note saying they had reports of the retaining clips being pulled out of the back of the cab and sent new hardware for use with the light to replace the OEM hardware.

Thier communication may not be great but I am pretty happy with the attention to quality.

it would be nice for them to actually send that shit to all the other people that bought an $800 third brake light.

I ended up having to fab my own solution.

The seal also sucks . pulled away from the housing already.
