Default K2oEG Scammed me. Explaination INSIDE... BAD SELLER



Hi, I just wanted to let you guys know about my SHITTY experience with k2oeg and how BAD my experience was. When I was interested in doing this swap, (still having an ek and selling my ek to get an eg for the swap) Eric seemed like a nice, helpful guy who would always encourage me to swap a k series in my civic. I knew that I wanted to but he made things sound WAY easier than they really were. Well then I ended up deciding that I wanted a K swap, and decided to go buy my stuff from him, at the time he was still with hybrid.

When I sent my money, and some parts which were in the deal (money + trade of some of rsx-s parts) this is the time that he broke with hybrid, the bad service started. He used to answer all phone calls, and all emails promptly like a Good business person. After he got the money and my parts for trade, it all went downhill from there. Delays on shipping my stuff, not answering any phone calls or emails all the way from losing ALL contact with me after the harness deal.

The original shipment that was supposed to come in with the mounts, clutch line, fuel lines, pnp harness, and a type R ecu. One broken *** cardboard box came in from FedEx 3 weeks later then the expected date. It contained Mounts, the PNP harness, and the clutch line, with about 20 foam pellets in it, not even half full, and the box was literally broken from one whole side, and started ripping on the other.

The harness had about 6 loose wires on it, so I called and asked where those loose wires were supposed to be run. He said “oh its easy, Ill send you an email tonight(2 weeks after package came after motor was in place) with a diagram on it because I’m really free this weekend,” Email, was not received that weekend, or the following one, or ever with a diagram. Instead I called back in about a week and said “what’s up with the diagram?”. He replies “Man just send me the harness over night and ill ship it back to you by the end of the week, ill just wire the o2 sensor for you.” So I overnighted it to him, and it never came that week, so I called him again. This is the same time when the guy on this board with the sn of “supafly” had gotten a harness in from k2oeg. Yea as you guessed, YES it was MY harness. And Eric, “supafly” and I know about this.

After this happened, I’ve been waiting about 2 more months for the fuel lines and the PNP harness and nothing has been in my mail from Eric.

I recently called him and his theory is what pissed me the **** off. He said “Yes I do owe you the PNP and the fuel lines, But you’ve been talking **** so I haven’t sent them and wont send it unless you take down your posts/ threads.” For you guys to Know THIS IS THE FIRST THREAD IVE MADE I never talked **** about anyone, all I said to people is answer when they asked me if he has good service and good parts. I was honest with them saying that he owes me **** and his service SUCKS and his parts aren’t the cleanest/best quality. Honest, that’s all I’ve been with people asking me. This has happened to a FEW people that I know, But One guy just got his **** back and I m just awaiting my ****. This guy cost me more money for **** that I did NOT need to buy (he owed me/he has of mine). Prob about 400 bucks of extra wiring ****.

WE made a deal about how much money and what parts were being exchanged for a certain cost. This was agreed on by both parts, no matter how good of a deal he gave me, it was all agreed by HIM TOO. I payed the cost that I said I would pay, sent my end of parts, and his end is still not fulfilled, its been about 4-5 months, and I don’t have all of my parts. What a shitty seller.


Well that’s it, summary= K2oEG sucks *** with his service, and his theory sucks, and he owes me ****.

THE END OF MY RANT, Thanks for listening

And oh yea I have aim to back up anything from a while back when he used to talk to me on aim daily. Its good to have a log manager.

-Peace

Damn. Sounds like a miscommunication or something. Hopefully everything will work out and youll get your parts...holding the parts is not going to help anything.

Good Luck man!!!

I also know Rocky personally, and have for many years now. He has been working on this K20 project for so long, and he's been so excited about finally getting it running. To get dicked around like this by a guy who claims he was scammed big time, it is really a tragedy. I hope this issue gets resolved soon.

well im really sorry to hear that you got fucked over. i was contemplating the K swap to, but because i don't trust just anyone to make up some motor mounts and "say" they are great i held off on the getting anything from k20eg and waited untill hasport a proven and proven trusted company. then after reading really all what had to be done and the limited people that had done it i backed out. i don't have the time or money to do something that is still experimental.


sorry to here that man.

my guess is that he got overwellmed with all the parts and what not and had money to suffice him, money does shitty things to people

Everyone says this but if you noticed he's been waiting for 4-5 months ALREADY.. so quickly isnt an option anymore.. He just needs it resolved..

I can't believe he said that he wont send your **** because you are telling people his service sucks... SEND THE DAMN ITEMS ON TIME and people wont have anything bad to say about you.. wtf..

You should find out where he lives and go pick up your parts or money... People actually vouched for this guy and bashed HybridRacing but it seems you cant trust this guy either..

Just to let you guys know, I have dealt with hybrid racing and their service is none BUT the best. I ordered axles from them , the came one day BEFORE they were supposed to come in. I ordered other stuff from them, there was a MINOR delay, but i KNOW it was fedex's fault cuz hybrid gave me a tracking number and i saw from fed-ex's website that it came all the way to MD, and went back, gay FED EX.

Eric says his package did the same thing, but never gave me a tracking number to follow.

The other thing that pissed me off, is that after he said "i wont send your things cuz you talked **** about my company," He said "you go to my enemy and get stuff from them, thats stabbing me in tbe back." I said WHAAAT?? Where else can i go get it from if YOU dont send it to me?

well bump this ****, hopefuly this *** sends me stuff
