Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: louisb on August 31, 2007, 14:39:01 pm It is getting really ugly on the Samba. Looks like folks were bilked out of ten of thousands of dollars. I usually only buy from a couple of sources, CB, Berg, AC.net, BFY & WW but I did recently buy something from him. (Set of torsion bars.) Fortunately they arrived before he closed up shop. I feel for anyone who is still waiting on stuff. Between this and the MDR stuff it starts to make you wonder. I have only been into VWs for about 13 or so years and this is not the first time I have seen people do this. Our little segment of the car hobby seems to attract this type of people. We had an incidence in our little town where a shop owner took advantage of a bunch of people, charged them for work that was not done, sold parts off of customer's cars, sold parts he bought with other people's money. Then he tried to disappear but the law caught him and now he is in jail.
--louis Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: Harry/FDK on August 31, 2007, 15:20:47 pm Louis is right, I just went thru the whole Topic on the Samba. This stuff takes your breath away. Just checked with my CC Company, they can't do a re-charge since i authorized him to charge me. $ 1000.00
Thank you Steve, i really hope we'll meet some day. PS. He was spotted once or twice on-line at the Samba to check his Topic... Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: Harry/FDK on August 31, 2007, 16:57:21 pm He was on-line again for 2 minutes. If you read the Samba Topic, i wouldn't like to be in his shoes....
Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: louisb on August 31, 2007, 17:02:27 pm No, it looks like someone from the UK is out for blood. This could get violent.
--louis Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: Harry/FDK on August 31, 2007, 17:14:45 pm He just checked that message, if they find him :o :o :o
Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: Harry/FDK on August 31, 2007, 18:36:44 pm He's on and offline all the time, are we getting a Statement???
Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: Bruce on August 31, 2007, 20:24:11 pm Just checked with my CC Company, they can't do a re-charge since i authorized him to charge me. $ 1000.00 I'd try again. I don't know what the CC laws are where you live, but when a vendor doesn't supply you with the parts, that is grounds for a chargeback. Look into the CC laws.Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: Harry/FDK on August 31, 2007, 20:51:59 pm Will do on Monday >:( Since their laws are pretty much the same around the globe. Thanks Bruce.
Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: Harry/FDK on September 02, 2007, 18:05:22 pm So, who's also licking his/hers Serrano's wounds...
Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: Harry/FDK on September 04, 2007, 20:01:08 pm Bruce, Thanks again man. Things are looking (very) good for me now to get my money back. Thank God i saved every e-mail concerning Serrano's.
Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: louisb on September 04, 2007, 20:16:05 pm That is good to hear. Sounds like a lot of people will not be so lucky. I still can't believe some people are crying because of the loss of the low prices he offered.
--louis Title: Re: Serrano's out of business Post by: Harry/FDK on September 04, 2007, 20:39:20 pm Louis, i should have become a Samba Forum member and read the Topics way long ago. Stupid Me.
