Dan I'm on your side said it I dunno 3-4 times but then you post saying we're dumb as rocks when you contra(dick) yourself.

here comes the red Crayon..... That was not directed at you. I can see where you are going and that you don’t know how the CC companies work. It was intended for "Other" slow people.....

Your return to stock charges are 20%, 20% of $2450 is $490 bucks. More then enough to cover your ENTIRE out of pocket plus Carrillos fees and some lunch for you and your associates! In addition you said that the CC company's fee is 10% as you said that 10% would not cover the CC fees alone? So who are we to believe at this point?

Are you sure about that? What happens when we have to dump the rods for less than what we sold them for because they are not BRAND NEW???? (not sure how you missed this)

Sorry I was off on the % they charge as I was at home when I wrote that... In don’t normally know what the CURRENT rates are for cc transactions so I guessed at to what I recalled. Sorry I was off by $25.00 :rolleyes:


Not trying to be a dick here but if your going imply I'm a slow learner well .pot calling kettle black!

You might not be slow but I have a feeling you might have been dropped when you were a kid….. :rolleyes::joker:

I have no issue with PPE I've bought items and would continue need be. Nor am I wanting you to change your policy. Just that some things strike me as odd in this thread.

Are things a bit more clear now?

I still don't believe that the CC company charges the full 3% on a refund or charge back. If they do man taking CC are for the BIRDS but I know with out them you lose business. Sucks. Still gonna see if I can find out if I can.

Go ahead and talk to your friend or call a CC company and POST back what you find out. I think you will be unpleasantly surprised.

Thanks MAckin Dan trys to make me look stupid but really if he is paying that much in credit card fees for one transaction then im not the stupid one!!! LOL at paying 10% credit card fees. Dan i don't care if you return the items or not and i have read your posts and NEVER once did you say the CC fees were over 10% so thats why i suggested what i did. NO company would still be in business if they had to pay that much CC fees, that would take ALL the profit away. Most CC companies im aware of take 2-3%from what ive been told so worst case scenario they do it on the purchase and return that would be 4-6% which would still leave room for extra money. But im done PPE doesnt have to return anything they dont want to and thats fine, im just one for making customers happy, i guess thats why i dont run a business !!!

I am not TRYING to make you look stupid. Its very clear you dont know how business works. Maybe you should stick to what you know and not what you THINK you know...;):hug:

Go ahead and apply the % you quoted and let me know how that works out...

You already did that in your previous response and yes you are right 10% is not enough. I understand that sorry for trying to help a fellow member out and getting you feathers ruffled a little bit. Your right i know nothing about business but i do know how to make money and sometimes you lose money to make money. IMO a guy that builds and buys 20,000 race motor is one i would want to be on my side of the fence rather than fighter over a 20% restock. But hey you do business however you want that is fine i was just suggesting this guy seems to spend alot of money in our sport why not do what you can for him. Thats all palin and simple and im not into guys either:thumb: But in your little PPE video you and Dmitri looked awful friendly:hug:

Dan you may be right on the fees I'm curious like I said I can if I'd like to take CC as form of payment here but with all of this BS it wont be any time soon.

Not trying to prove you wrong or put you on a pedestal or below one for that matter I'm just reading what you type. I understand returns are a PITA but they are a part of business.

If you were to get these rods back and send them back to Carrillos for inspection would they not certify these as NEW and you would sell them as used? You certainly would NOT give the consumer back a refund before checking the rods first so why would you dump them for a total loss? That would be just dumb.

I'm not gonna beat this dead horse but IMO IF he sent them back and paid the shipping as he should and you collected your 20% restocking fee AS YOU ARE ENTITLED TO AS THAT IS YOUR POLICY, you would not be out a dime. In addition be able to resell those rods as brand new. If not then the seller would be out and he'd have to put a claim in with the carrier.

As far as being dropped when I was a kid well I certainly was and I was checked out to be just fine. I believe I was I dunno 5 or 6 maybe ,long time ago. My dad gave me a piggy back ride to bed and I said I was over the bed ,why did he believe me?, and I wasn't and fell between the bed and a cast iron register! Ended up with two small cuts that required a stitch each! I thought I was gonna dye! :roflmao:

But thanks for asking I'm fine! :hug:

Whats the logic with spending the money to have the rods checked out if you do not plan on selling them as new when/if you get them back?

We are all here to help when we can!

What do you suggest we "do" in this case???? as your 10% offer is not going to work.

Yes Dmitri and I are friends (we have been for a long time). HOWEVER he is a little to manly and his pants are a little to fancy for me... If you saw all the out takes of that video you would understand all the body language. GOOD CATCH THOUGH...:eek::D:thumb:

Glad to hear you are doing better! (not sure if better is the correct word :D)

This question is for everybody, Please reply with your thoughts! IF PPE TOOK THE RODS BACK AND CARRILLO INSPECTED THEM AND SAID THEY WERE FINE, WOULD IT BE OK FOR PPE TO SELL THEM AS BRAND NEW AT BRAND NEW PRICING??????

To make sure the rods are the original ones shipped and that they are ok. You have to do this for liability reasons.

I would probably be angry if I found out later they had been in someones hands before.

Unless I was told and agreed before hand......but I personally wouldn't pay new price for them.

Same principle as buying a car....soon as its off the lot, it is no longer new.

This thread makes me laugh. If it's policy, it's policy. Plain and simple. I can say as a business owner, sometimes you have to make judgements on what will be best for your company: Sticking to policy, or making exceptions for trusted customers. I can tell you I have been burned enough times that I make no exceptions in my marketing plan, and the "trusted" customers understand this.

Put yourselves in the op's shoes now. Yeah a 20% restocking fee seems high, but at this point I'd probably cut my losses and I wouldn't see the need in doing business with a company that doesn't trust me any further than they can throw me. There are plenty of companies that sell performance parts for duramax's, and If you don't like PPE, move on and learn from this experience.

From a total outsiders veiw, Just sell the rods outright, kiss and makeup, then enjoy having a working relationship with ppe. If you ever need their support they will be willing to help, and you'll be gratefull you took it in the shorts so you could have that support.

OBTW dan. The question, yes I would pay new if they were sent back and had been fully inspected and found new or undamaged. jmo.

Wouldn't the manufacture be the liable party for failure? Reputation is measured in many forms and your post are probably harming it more than helping it
