Yeh it's true. I think I started dealing with them in September. They told me they had a JZA70 half cut, rang them again to send me pics etc...They told me the price for the cut was $1600. I rang again and they told me that they'll hold the 'MA71' half cut if I put down a $500 deposit.
I was ready to pay the rest of the half cut about 2 weeks later...and that was when GiantTomato went up to Sydney. I rang Nippon Sydney and they told me they had sold the half cut. So basically stuffed David up coz of these idiots.
I rang them a week later and they told me that it was going to come in 'the next container'. So I rang about 2 days after the supposed container came in and I got told that it would come into the 'next' one. Kept on happening until he finally said that there was a white JZA70 manual half cut in the container at the docks which he saw with his own eyes. Asked him when it would come in, and he said in 3 days it'll be at the shop or whatever. Rang 5 days later and he said that the container hasn't arrived. So I just said 'Listen, it's been 5 months, can I have my money back? Coz I could have completed my conversion by now.'
He put me onto this other person who took my address...and it's been 3 weeks and I havent gotten back my money. I have checked everyday because I wanted to buy stuff (Gone stereo route until I have more money for conversion) and waited 2 full weeks before I put a stop to the money order before Jeff goes and cashes it.
Some wreckers/importers or whatever are dodgey, and I have not been screwed around like this. This guy is a toss. Nice on the phone but man, sometimes I wonder if I'm ringing his house phone and he's just watching TV and is being nice so I hang up quickly. Not a way to run a business.
Dont go Nippon Sydney unless they actually HAVE what you want there.
EDIT: Forgot to add in, First they said JZA70, then MA71, after they said they sold the JZA70, they said that they put my deposit down for a JZA80 instead of 70. JZA80 half cut from them was $16k in the newspapers. Big difference between putting a deposit down for a $16000 half cut and a $1600 one. Anyway, after that they told me that they were meant to sell me a GA70 half cut. Just for being dumb, I hope they shut down and stop fucking everyone around.
