    I was just talking with someone about this and we were wondering if he knew what he was going to do a LONG TIME ago. He was selling his Corvette for cheap considering the money that went into it...he was selling Kooks coated headers with cats for 1299, sways for like 275....points to "getting rid of all his inventory" but again, IDK. I just hope you didn't get jacked Stevo.

    I just saw this posted on the CF thread about Tbyrne
    it was taken from teh GTO forums

I will honestly not be back on the board after this.

    I first want to apologize to anyone effected by our recent closure. There were a hand few of customers that were effected by the abrupt closer and I am truly sorry. Second, If Tom was out to intentionally "screw people" there were alot of backorder orders that could have been charged when we closed that were not. Not that this makes it any better for the customers that were affected but I had to make that point. What happened was unfortunate but I assure you it was not done maliciously. Sometimes things happen in life that cause us to make some difficult choices, I'm sure for him this was one of them.

    I enjoyed the 11 years I was at T Byrne and have met and worked with some outstanding people. I made some friendships that will hopefully continue.

    Take Care,
    Carol

    Go git 'em Stevo!! If you had these on back order and they charged you, didn't ship them, I would also get the Postmaster involved. My understanding is they can wreac havoc on someone as well. I was told that by another member when I was considering purchasing form a suspect seller. Did you also refute the charge with the credit card company?

    yes, the best and easiest course of action is the tell the cc company what happened. most cc companies i have heard of will refund you your money.
