Arrow Slip-On Thoughts

[Mixagon_imp]

In case you wanted to hear how arrow and stock exhausts sound like at the same time.

There is a nice difference :clap: you'll have to try it without the db killer and see if its acceptable or to loud.
Can I enquire how long your Arrows took from buying to delivery ? I'm on 49 days nows and just getting strung along with more excuses.

Mine took 1.5 months to get it delivered to the uk.

After one month of “we will send it tomorrow” I opened an official eBay complaint and asked eBay to step in. In few days the status updated to “dispatched”

I opened an Ebay complaint but silly me listened to the sellers promises and took the offer of next week delivery and £100 goodwill refund so I closed the dispute, The £100 refund was instant but still no delivery 3 weeks later.
Of course now with no Ebay support I'm thinking I've lost all hopes of delivery and also my money. Only thing I can do is leave neg feedback before the 60 day timer runs out and learn a costly lesson.
Its the most money I have ever lost so very disappointed about this.

Mixagon, how did you pay for it? Credit card? You can call your credit card co and dispute it. Personal check? You can stop payment on the check. Other methods, I'm not sure what recurse is available.

hope your pipe arrives soon, negating such measures.

Thanks for the reply.
I paid through Ebay by debit card so no help from the bank and because I closed the Ebay dispute its now resolved.
The only weapon I have is neg feedback but I have only 11 days left to leave feedback so the clock is ticking and the tracking number I have been sent is not found on Swiss post tracking so most likely to be false.
The seller is clever and knows the time frames and I think is stalling for the feedback time to run out so I have nothing.
I am planning on leaving neg feedback but on saying that the seller somehow seems to be able to remove neg feedback as he been down to 98% but is now back to 99.9% again.
In a way I'm prepared to lose the money just for the peace of mind, its been the worst transaction I've ever had on Ebay and will take some time to recover from.

Arrg, so sorry to learn to got taken advantage.

You can always contact eBay support and explain the situation. Do not worry about it, you will at least have your money back.

I left a negative review to my seller and they offered me £40 to change it. I accepted an offer, will change a feedback to be less negative soon

 

[the Ferret]

is that fair to other potential buyers?

 

[mrded_imp]

I still mentioned the delivery problems in the feedback. And the fact they paid me

Rooting for you, Mix!
I def think ebay would grant a refund if you pursued.
Do you think it's a scam or stringing along, delayed by the supply chain? Is Arrow among the Italian companies that shut down for the month of August?

Finally! Only need to clean the bike and install the pipes

Gawd I would love to get these for my DLX but they don't seem to make them for it and I have no idea if these would fit.

I don't think the other two bikes, Kawi & Guzzi, would be happy with a new exhaust for the DLX only

Well the Kawi already got an Akrapovic and I can't understand a word the Guzzi says anyway....

I'm told the delay is from Arrow being short of raw materials and back orders from covid staff shortages etc ect. Now he says the delivery company can take 2 weeks to update their tracking info.
The seller says he can not refund me now because the item has been dispatched but the tracking and ebay says its not been sent.
My biggest gripe is the seller being dishonest on the listing by saying 1 available and delivery 17 to 24 days when he knows he hasn't got one available and can not deliver in the time frame. There are 7 watchers on item so alot of money for him if they buy, its not right.

Nag away at eBay, Mixagon. Promise to bag it out as a marketplace if something isn't done.

Update on my Arrow exhausts.

Talked to Ebay about the seller persuading me to close my dispute in October and promise delivery first week of November and failing and sending me bogus tracking info.
Dispute instantly re opened and full refund awarded and in my bank account 12 hours later
I also asked....
how he's removed the 4 neg feedback I've seen this month and is now back to 100% feedback again.

How can he sell things he hasn't got and still list 1 available with 2/3 week delivery as he is still doing with Arrow exhausts.

Once he gets your email by saying the courier needs it he never contacts through Ebay again so all the stringing along is hidden from Ebay.

3 investigations started and a promise if I leave him neg feedback he will not be able to remove it as others need to know.

New update on my Ebay transaction status..
Payment Oct 4
Dispatch Nov 25 <<<
Delivered Oct 17 <<<
Seems he's now a time traveller.

I’m glad to hear your got your money back Mixagon! I got scammed once back in the 80’s and ended up eating he loss. I even called that states’s AG but that didn’t help me any.
