Slick 60's

not sure where to put this but i need some help/ info.
i meet and paid for some parts sept 12th from pete and since then i havent heard a peep...
paid 150.00 cash for a rear valance and ends of a unibody bed, shook hands on the deal, was told he'd cut it off and have it taken near chattanooga where i could pick it up in a week or so.
well its been a few weeks now, no return emails, wont answer the phone... nothing. i live 4-5 hours away and really hard to get back down there, wondering if anyone knows something. not sure if there's been trouble, if im just being screwed, or what... pretty frustrating

any help or info would be appreciated
thanx

Pete's a stand-up guy from my experience. I've gotten parts from him 3 different times. The only thing is, he sometimes over-extends himself at work and on his hobby (he had every bit of 10 slicks in various states of repair PLUS a boatload of parts the one time I visited him), and can get behind, sometimes. Try and PM him from this site, and if you have his number, call/leave a message with your contact info. I would be surprised if he's trying to scam you in any way.

ive had good dealings with him too

yeah i dunno what to think, honestly.
ive pm'd from this site, called, and emailed his home email. i didnt get the impression he was out to get me or anything, i mean i wouldnt have left the cash if i did, just tryin to get some answers.
it appears he hasnt been on here in quite awhile either so i dunno

Last PM from him he was going to an event somewhere. Don't remember where or what kind but was supposed to be back before now.Hope nothing happened.

I've had good dealings with him as well over the years.

yeah never told me what exactly it was, just said he'd be gone a few days. i know all he does is ride so makes ya wonder?

I wouldn't worry about Pete. His word is good. Give him time, and he'll show up

Only had one dealing with him and it was legit. Interesting, but legit. I'd do business with him again. Give it time, he'll get to you.

i dont know if he's still doin that anymore, mentioned he was lookin for steady work a couple times so i dunno.

I have bought from Pete, he is a stand-up guy. He lives a long way from a UPS pick up point so larger items require a really long round trip for him. Sorry it is taking so long but he will come through for you too.

i called again today and his answering machine at the house says he just checked outta the hospital and will be stayin with a friend while he recovers. says he'll be there 8-10 weeks and should be able to get online there. he sounded okay so hopefully its not too serious!
i have not further details but if i hear back from him i'll let ya'll know.

Sorr to hear Pete's got medical issues, but glad there is a good explanation for the delay on your parts.
