i've been trying to get ahold of him myself but he doesn't answer his PM's. his website www.kansasfieros.com seems to be shutdown too.i mailed him a bunch of my gt stuff to be powdercoated back in july and paid in advance by pay pal. i figure since he's on the good sellers list he'll come thru before long.i know he had a son break a arm and a roof to put on his dads house a few months back. jesse
I too have been trying to get in touch with him for a few weeks now. I have bought a number of items from him before and is generally good about getting back to me so I am not sure what is going on.

I've just put out a thing on paypal about not getting my items from him. I didn't want to do that but I am trying to get his attention. I've also heard some shaddy things too . I do hope they are not true. It sucks because he's always come through for me when I've needed things. People that have bought from him recently through paypal too should start the paper work. I think you have only 30 days from when you purchase.

in that case its too late for me as its been 4 months.the money isn't the bad part, its my parts i'll have to buy back from someone to get my gt running.valve covers,plenum,air canister, dogbone,cooling tubes,heats sheilds,ashtrays,thermo holder that i can think of off the top of my head. Chris, if you read this and dont want to mess with the powdercoating, just send the parts back to me C.O.D. We'll work the prepayment out later or just powdercoat the back valve cover and top plenum for now so MstangsBware can put the injectors in my GT.thanks and i hope things get bettter for you. jesse

hey go to http://www.kansasfiero.com/ this morning it came up differnt then i remember it, still no word from Chris, hope all is well.
Kind of looks like an old version of the site, on the top right says it was updated in '04. Plus on the front page he mentions having gotten 200 hits, though the hitcounter is over 1,000

It is very odd not to hear from him, I talked to him by cell on Oct 22nd and nothing since. Like I said I have bought a lot of stuff from him before but it is odd to go this long and here nothing.

He emailed me and said he was out of town. He also sent me my things too. Hopefully he'll get your stuff out soon.

Are you saying that you received stuff from Chris? Or did he say he sent it to you?
Yes, he sent my brake brackets and emailed me. His email is ceirsik@gmail.com. I told him he needs to get on here and let everyone know whats going on and that people were worried. I hope he will.

This is the same stunt he pulled about 2 years ago or so with many other members on the board. Took there money/parts and then fell off the face of the Earth for a while then came back. How this guy made it on the GOOD Sellers list makes me wonder but he did. I can understand having some problems in life but its been many months for some people and its not looking any better.

it's sad but this is a repeat of last year. guess i should keep my eye on the good/bad list for new posts.

It's ALWAYS a bad sign when the person thats doing work or selling you something only responds to your emails or pm's after you contact them instead of keeping you updated if a problem or delay happens.I'm old and should of known better, and it's happened to me several times in my life. A competent vendor would do that.But he was on the good sellers list and just the next state over so i took my chance and now its been over 5 months. Any of you other people that do powdercoating, i know you hate to go thru places like ebay but me and others would feel better about buying items thru a middleman so we can check feedback and file complaints after a long peroid.I know i wouldn't have a problem if you add a little extra $ to cover the trouble and it would help us buyers.And i'm looking for any 2.5 or 2.8 fiero parts done in the classic fiero red.PM me if you have any to sell.Seems all they have on ebay is the "chrome" look lately. MstangsBware, if you want to go ahead and put injectors in my purple gt, go ahead as i know you want to finish your work and get the '85 gt. i'll worry about replacing with powdercoat parts another time as i'll have to rebuy the items i sent off to wheels1.I know i could of just pmed you but thought this thread should be bumped up for others to see thinking of dealing with this guy down the road. jesse

Can't someone from the area that Chris lives in go over and say something to him? Can someone in the area give him a call? There must be some way to get in touch with him.

I am local, but I am not home very often. I will help, what I want from you guys is a pm that contains a list of items sent, value of items and what you paid him to do. Those who bought parts, I need a list of parts and the money you paid. I think dates of payment would help as well. Ryan you and I need to meet for lunch and chat when I am home next. If there is enough of you I will contact the local PD and go from there. I would like on the list, your name(real and forum) some contact info, and home state. pm me a ph# as well and I will call you to talk more in depth.

Man I got a couple of hundred worth of parts from him over the summer. I guess I am just lucky, as every thing was delivered as he promised. Fast shipping, and decent prices on everything.

I got an email from Chris on the 26th of November after some parts I had purchased arrived. There was one item missing and he said he would ship it out that Wednesday, but that was a couple of weeks ago and nothing has showed up yet. I have tried calling him a few times and email but nothing yet. I want to believe he is trying...
