Forum members be aware when dealing with this German based business as I have been scammed by them.

These guys are scammers and I will do what I can to spread the word al over the net as they really pissed me off.
I purchased a brake line kit from these guys in December before Christmas some of you might recall.
This mob in Germany does not use Credit Cards, does not use Paypal and only accepts international money orders.
So I went out on the limb and sent them money and exposed myself completely with no protection
It cost me 277 ? plus $25? in local bank fees for the transfer. At the time the total cost was $388 Australian Dollars (~ $400 USD).
Given the Christmas break they only got back to me around the 15th Jan which I understand
They claimed that I sent them an incorrect amount and That I was $22? short in the transfer
I sent them a bank confirmation stating I sent them 277?. As requested and that perhaps it is their own bank that charged them some fees
I explained hat I paid additional 25? in fees myself on my end.
They got back to me saying we will refund your money instead of making their customer happy.
I explained that it would cost me 47? for them to get 22? and that perhaps I can have a negative store credit for next purchase or some other alternative method to pay them through PayPal for example.
Today I received a refund of $300 Australian dollars which is $90 short of what I sent them and I also lost another 25? in fees I paid.
So not only did I throw away 100+ dollars I also lost more than a month on these incompetent, stuck in the Stone Age, non customer focused idiots.
They made no attempt to work it out with me
No attempt or desire to gain a customer or seem to care to do business with
Ripped me off in the process
Pissed me off
Now I don't typically make posts like these, but I will make it my personal vendetta to bad mouth them at every opportunity I get
