I red labeled them a check for about 2100.00 per their request on December 2 2007 for some wheels.
The wheels were going to go to anodizing that same week for a color match and anodizing.
The following week he was to send me a sample of the anodizing...which never happened.
I called the following week and he said that they were working on it and he will send the wheel in a few days as well as the sample because it turned out perfect so he had the wheels done.
Guess what....never happened and never got the wheels.
Next week..I called and asked where the wheels were . He said some of the guys took of work so the anodizing could not be done.
Next week...I called and called but got no response.
After all this crap and him sitting with 2100 in his bank account earning interest on it I finally just gave up and told him I want
a full refund because Im cancelling the order. I cancelled the order on the wheels the 7 of january on which day he said he would send out the check.
Never got it. Every week since then I have called and asked about the check. Finally got ahold of him and he said he sent it out...this was over 2 weeks ago.
This is the email I sent on January 26th!

Screwing people in this industry wont get you far, especially with the power of the internet.
Cykoracing.com is the website for this business .
His email is

Address where I sent the check via red label ups:

Any help in recovering my funds would be appreciated!
