Sorry, man. Hopefully your credit card company can help you out. I would definitely include that article with anything else you submit to them to get those charges reversed.


good luck.

Hope it was just isolated incidents, good luck and hope you have a good experience.

I tried to give this place the benefit of the doubt and even though it has only been 2.5 weeks since I ordered. I am not taking anymore risk.

They are not answering their phones at all this week. Thank God I used a CC.

Anyone know the next best place with the best price to get the Corsa Exhaust from?
Sorry to hear this.
I hope it works out on your end.

I'm still hoping it ships soon, giving it another week.

I want to give them the chance to come thru. I am still in my delivery time window.

I really want to be fair to all involved.

Man you are a loyal guy! I would call your C.C company and go elsewhere at this point after seeing that article. It sucks to hear because I have ordered a ton of stuff from exhaust systems, intakes, throttle body;s etc from them in the past for all my different F-body Trans Am's over the years. Sad to see because Brandon used to be great to deal with and had great prices. Times are hard out there for these vendors I guess.....

I like to think of myself as fair and with integrity. There has been communication on both sides, so I am hopeful.

I am a reasonable person, until it it time to not be, and that time hasn't come yet.

My CC co. has my back, so I am not worried from a money standpoint.

Maybe I am more patient than others, but I really am wanting to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Brandon already has your money. He will string you along with lies until it is too late to do a charge back. They are banned from numerous automotive forums. I ordered headers/exhaust in March. Never delivered. No benefit of the doubt to be given. Plenty of places selling Corsa that actually will deliver. I am an attorney. I told him that, did not stop MS from stealing my money. They are being sued by the Maryland Attorney General for fraudulent business practices. Run, flee!!!!

I know all of this.

I am not worried money wise, I used my CC. I spoke with Branden yesterday and will give the time allotted to complete my order.

I am not a sucker, I am being pro-active. When the time is right and if nothing is delivered, I won't hesitate, I just want to be fair on the time frame that was quoted.

If Branden is being truthful with me, I will know soon enough. I just want to base my decision on my experience and not on the curtails of others.

I want to give you credit for being so understanding..... but....... I think you are a sucker in this case. Sorry. I don't see any reason to be "fair" with a very well known thief.

I have to agree here. You are exactly the kind of customer these con-artists hope for. The bastards are under indictment for FRAUD!! Get your money back as soon as you can or see it tied up for a long time.

Hell, these bastards are only 2 hours from me and I still wouldn't buy from them.

I live 30 minutes from MD speed, I drive 2 hours to Delaware to buy parts, and for installations before I deal with them. HPA does Corsa also.

BALTIMORE (September 05, 2018)—Maryland Attorney General Brian E. Frosh announced today that his Consumer Protection Division has filed charges against Maryland Speed LLC (Maryland Speed), an online retailer specializing in the sale of auto parts, for accepting payment for parts that it failed to provide to its customers, and for refusing to issue refunds to purchasers. Maryland Speed's principal office is located in Hollywood, Maryland. Branden Farthing, the owner of Maryland Speed, was also charged.
TRZ06, please read the first paragraph of the news article.

And...

Quote:
Maryland Speed also allegedly misled its customers for lengthy periods of time, making it more difficult for customers to dispute charges for delayed or unfulfilled orders with the customers' credit card companies and banks.
