Not only that but i guess its been going on for 3+ years anyways No point in talking much beyond that. Shane has always been cool about sharing some advice on my builds including the new build for this year, i have no complaints about the arrangement myself ...what i did have an issue with or what left a bad taste in my mouth was the fact i was made out to be one of the flakers and or people ruining business... i mean in the ladies defense she maybe had no way of knowing i have been there more then a few times. My suggestion would be to just not assume everyone will be like the bad sheep, or take a very negative tone.

You either do all or none, most businesses are not going to pick and choose and have a special treatment list. If they have anyone back out on tuning time, that means they lose money for the day that they can't get back. Having everyone put a deposit down is just beneficial for business and ensures they don't lose other potential customers that will show up.

Here goes Goodharts dumb self of course haha, just like clock work with his little understanding and bag of assumptions...Yup, i think db's a charity unit, and hopefully some donations go to you and your personality deficiency... oh and your chronic "jerk of condition". What do you mean by

"think shop will just look over your work to make sure you did it right?"

Huh? What are you talking about?? Like general repair facilities or are you talking db charging to have a vehicle inspected pre dyno? Because I dont see either of the two applying here??? I must say though unlike you with your initial response clearly showing a lack of understanding or genuine interest in the personal experience i had, or miss conception of the brief description?...I dont understand what you are trying to say

I am asking you to explain and elaborate on what you mean, its pretty easy man, try it maybe? I do recommend you stop the keyboard warrior deal and get your car going stop with the jerk off, highschool bully attitude... you dont talk dumb, condescending let alone disrespectful in public... let alone dare come at anyone like that face to face. If you for some reason do decide to act like that, or have and were not put in your place! I suggest you reframe from that as well. Just stay polite online and be nice to everyone. Ask for clarification, dont be a Fan boy ...your mom taught you better then that.

I understand the concept. I dont think i asked for special treatment, but i guess the way i have been previously received by db would classify to you as special treatment. I just wanted to clarify as a business you dont want to make a customer feel like they are part of a problem they have nothing to do with, or did nothing to contribute to.

I can't even comprehend your version of English enough to come up with a response. But if you think I'm afraid to call someone out in person you obviously haven't met me. I don't ever remember meeting you in person, but I don't have the best memory. I just don't understand how a person gets upset by having to pay a deposit that everyone has to pay, but then expecting them to spend time helping you for free. Their time is worth money, that is how they earn a living.

Re: DB Dyno Slot Needed!

Well after all that, I am still willing to pay someone for their deposit if they need to back out!
