Default Do Not Buy From Grill Tech (beware)

I ordered a set of Grill Tech grills for my S-2000 from this company. They were selling them on E-bay, and they looked really sweet. Well, to make a long story short, it's been about 4 months now, and all I ever get from them when I E-mail them is a responce of, Sorry, we had a mix up with so many orders, please give us your info again, and we'll send it right out.

I've yet to receive a tracking code for a shipped item, an E-mail letting me know it did go out, nothing.

I paid 140 on E-bay before they got a Web address, and now they're selling for 100 I think on their web site.

Their Website is www.grill-tech.com

Let everyone you know, and all other clubs you are a part of know that these people are not in business to do business, but in business to Steal from others. I know I hate when people do this to me, and I wouldn't want it to happen to anyone else.

BEWARE, Don't make the same Mistake I did.

If you payed with a credit card, dispute the charges.

If you want to lose your money, go to E-bay!

I have heard of more people losing money from doing business from that one site than I have heard of from all of the other places put together.

Why don't you buy it from Coastal Metals?? They are also our sponsor! You can't go wrong with that!

They are cheaper too! Under $100

I definitely support Coastal-Metals as well! I've received a calendar (muchas gracias!), a dead pedal (mmmm...tasty!), and a suuuuuuuuper-professional modded (license-plate sized down & mounted to) powder-black grill -- and they did that mod for waaaaaay less than your $140 ebay fiasco. Sorry to hear about your troubles.

Do the CC dispute thing if you used a credit card. I have when burned before. It works.

And order from Coastal-Metals if you still want a grill; you will not be displeased! Promise.

I just want everyone to know that i was very happy with the grill-tech front that i bought from ebay. It took a little longer than expected, and i paid about 70 for the front and the two side vents. I was actually expecting some crappy deal since i see the grills sell for over 100 but i was really surprised. They fit nicely and look really good. I don't know what happened to your order. All i know is that they been having problems with their orders. If you look at their feedback, everyone complained about the wait, but everyone gave them good rating. If you email him, and be civil about it, i am sure they have a good reason. He has sold a lot so i don't think he is about to rip you off.
