Anyone having problems with Serrano's lately???

He owns us quite some Money for Parts that he never shipped, and it looks like he won't refund???

The hole Store started December 2006!!!

Just Curious???

I ordered a A1 muffler and it took a long time  (4 months) before I received it, but I received it. I really wanted to have the muffler the next day, but the parts are cheaper and don't forget the way he ships the parts!!! No DHL or a different very expensive way to get the parts to my home. An oil filter that was in back order was shipped for free. That's a good service!! Frank next time ask Steve if he is ready and then give him your credit card number!!!!! It will save you a lot of trouble!!!

I just received a set of SAW shot axles for the '67 from him. Took almost a month to get them.

And I'll soon order parts from him again...

Sometimes it took a long while. Sometimes within 1 or 2 weeks. Never had a problem.
Youre problem is not "standard" for Steve in MHO.
But this SUCKS.

My tip is to call him. I had a slight problem with delivery time for some parts and after two months I started to call once a week. I did this for a month and then I started to call once a day. Next week it was every hour, I simply tired him out!
I have always been satisfied with the price and quality, but the delivery time can be a PITA sometimes. But the weird thing is that he can sometimes be the fastest supplier on the planet.
I guss I have bought parts for 10-12K USD over the years from him and have never lost a dime.

I just ask from now on: IN STOCK?? If not: LET ME KNOW (Steve's own  famous words). After that: No Problems. Like Roman wrote: The Fastest Supplier On The Planet.

I have never had any Problems with Steve or Shipping The Only Problem I have ever had Was I ordered some Head Tin and when I got It ,It seemed his Grease Monkey engine Builders had hacked up the Tin for the manifolds and they had been bolted on a motor Steve exchanged them with no problem  All in All Steve is a great guy and is keeping all of us going there are not near as many parts shops as there once was and they are all still trying to make a living.
