Has anyone else ordered the BC coilovers from Will at RSI in the past 6 months?

Call me old fashioned, but if he is in financial difficulty, shouldn't we all be supporting him? I just ordered a new hood from him as he is a contributing member of the viper community and I wish him every success. God knows these are financially trying times for everyone, and I don't believe bashing his business into destitution is the answer. I will get my hood just as sure as you will get your parts.

I would wait until you get your hood before showing support. Will seems like a nice guy, but there is a theme to the RSI threads. Check VA for the other threads.

OP, I hope you get your parts.

I've seen these posts MANY times in my short tenure here. He dropped a boat load of "Loonies" on a hood...is reading some of these wacked out posts...and is scared. He thinks that if he swings on the sack it's gonna make a difference. Dude, trust me when I say...your hood is waaaaaaaaay down at the bottom of Will's list of priorities. Like Speed said...save your sack fondling for when you get your hood.

Sure hope 2easy is joking.... I waited over 2 months before my patience ran out and I took action to get my coin back via the CC company. neo-rambo has been waiting over 6 months….how much support in the form of RSI using our money without sending parts should we supply?

When a sponsor has ripped off a lot of customers/members, I would think that there must have been a contract per say that was initialized upon with fair practice and business ethics involved. Leaving them as a sponsor without justification on all that has happened in the past with members, is and should be a violation of the contract. Something should have been and should be done to hold them accountable for their actions. How fair is it to be a paid member and have the sponsor , that we try and support, taking our money and spending it like its his own.
The VCA should step in and do something about this. Enough is enough.

Pretty sad when a sponsor continues to use these tactics against members and the Board does not punish them in any way.

You guys choose to discipline us members when we simply say something ****** or attack others here yet, RSi gets nothing except maybe a chatt off line and he simply cons the board as he does the members into thinking everything will be ok.

I'm pretty sure I need to replace one of my factory shocks anyway and would prefer to get a set of these that is set-up for the Viper (correct spring rates, valving, etc), but considering the issues with RSI (and that he hasn't even responded), it looks like I may just have to order them from the manufacturer.

Article 2, section 3 of the bylaws. By the enormous power vested in me by way of Venom Class membership status...I motion to ban William Senter Hamblin III from this club. Those in favor say "Aye".

Remember, your not only voting to relieve this club of an unscrupulous vendor, your voting to give the good and deserving vendors a better chance to thrive in our small community. We work hard for our money, we love our cars, and we deserve to be surrounded by vendors who respect that. :usa: I stand before you, dear VCA members and address you with my clown suit off. Vote Aye for a better club and a financially safer tomorrow.

If a director or RSi could chime in and come up with a reason as to why we shouldn't, or why it has not happened, it might make the reason more credible.

Not many people stepping forward. Understandable. Is there any way we can start an anonymous poll?

I think the problem is most of the people who own Vipers are very well off, losing a grand here or there is no big deal, for me the less well off, at least I know who to stay clear of. And some people are hoping to still get there stuff so they are staying neutral, which is understandable. To me the whole thing seems odd.:dunno:

I've talked to Will. I've listened to him ramble on and on. It's easy to feel sorry for him....until you figure out that that's his angle. I believe it's very clear now that he is taking people's money and not delivering product intentionally. This isn't a "business issue" or an "economic issue" but rather a pathological issue. Dude's gotta go. I can put up with just about anything but a thief.

How do I place a big order? I've always wanted to get in on the ground floor of a good Ponzi scheme.

2easy...NeoRambo...your loss could possibly be VitalVelocity's gain. Lets see how this plays out...

Funny...don't want to derail thread but I would not do business w/ RSI either...I too had to place a claim w/ my credit card company to get my hard earned $$$ back after many attempts to get said $$$ back...buyers beware!!!

Yes...I've spent many hours over the past 6 months reading threads and complaints here, in the Alley, all over the web and even in the damn Corvette forums regarding Vipair and RSI. There's an eery similarity between Steve and Will in the way they lie and live a life of complete denial. The only explanation I can come up with is psychosis.
