Default Prodigy Customs Refund

Is there anyone else out there waiting for a refund from prodigy customs and just outright being ignored or getting " the checks in the mail ".

If so contact me im filing small claims in the next few days and maybe we can turn it into a class action suit at this point.

I saw a thread on Camaros.net with quite a few people trying to get in contact Prodigy. If you can't get any communication, no word on parts delivery or refund option, I don't see where there's any other choice but to pursue legal action.

This sucks for all involved. Given that he is no longer a sponsor on here, there is not much the mods can do. After reading the post on camaros, there looks to be a lot of guys in the same situation. Everyone of you guys needs to start their own thread on PT and force the situation. If there are new threads started everyday on the "other" site, they will have to do something to address the issues, other than burying it in the marketplace feed back section.

Sadly the more the word gets out -- the more 'damage' it does - as these businesses, when they get to this point - need new sales to pay for the oldest squeakiest wheels. It becomes nothing more than a ponzi scheme.

I love Frank - he's super knowledgeable and helpful and on and on... but business is business and somehow he's managed to screw his into the ground.

I like Frank too and weve delt soooo many times but it took about a year for me to get 300 back from him that just happened last week.

Good luck guys , hang in there I dont think Frank means any harm just tough times I think .

Poor business management, plenty of money and time to run to car shows though. I suggested to a vendor today they shut his account off until he cleans up his act. Ill be filing small claims soon enough. I've waited long enough for $1300.

So taking money for parts and never ordering parts is "meaning no harm"???

I ordered something from Speed Tech through him and 4 months later when I never received my parts I called Blake directly and he told me Frank never ordered the parts.

It took 4 months to get my vintage air that was supposedly "in stock"

Then it took him a year to refund my money and he only did it because I was constantly posting on pro-touring about how he scams people.

Thankfully we received all of the items we ever purchased from them. We made 4 large purchases from them in 2010. Each delivery seemed to progressively take longer than what he quoted at time of ordering. (weeks turned into months) I started seeing all of the disgruntled threads pop up after we received our last order. It turns my stomach to think about this crap. At least we got our stuff. Just lucky I guess... Best of luck to those that have to fight it out!
