Hey man there great. I order a carpet set on a monday and I recieved it that friday. They said 5-7 days shipping and it made it here on time.The carpet is very nice and it fit perfect.

Im just ordered a carpet kit last week, John told me 7 days to my door.
Keeping my fingers crossed.

Someone tell me again why people order from this guy after all the free "press" he got on this board. I read the posts and it sound to me like he has boned enough people here to not get my money. I went with Appbiz.

Cheers, Jeff

Maybe he realized screwing people over on delivery dates was going to cost him his business. I like to think people can change.

I actually have dealt with both of them and found both to be quite pleaseant and on top of their game. I have no complaints

I had a terrible experience, and would rather sit on milk crates than have him provide me with interior products. I will never do business with him again.

Original Fit make a decent product....just very slowly. Appears to be a small operation.

John has been great with me if you overlook a few white lies about when the product was sent out for delivery. The product has been good and he has made every effort to follow the exact patterns. I recommend him wholeheartedly! Charlie

I was the creator of one of the old threads. John has some great stories and sometimes if you have the patience to wait, the product is good. He won't charge your card until he really ships your stuff.

All products that I've ordered from Bob have been of good quality and the shipping speed has been fast (within 5 days). I think he's got his stuff together now.

We generally ship same day if orders are place before 11:00 AM and have never had any delayed shipment complaints. Pelican Parts has agreed to stock most of our products. They are not all on the Website yet, but will be shortly. In the meantime you may contact Eugene At Pelican, he will be able to give you pricing and part numbers

Just got to installing an RS set from Original and everything seems to fit just fine. Shipping was a little slow, but I was in no hurry so it didnt concern me.

cnielsen · 01-20-2004, 12:10 PM

Very good product but VERY, VERY, VERY slow shipping. I ordered the correct german carpet and maybe that is why it took so long. However, he told me I would receive it in a week or two. In the end it took 2 1/2 months and that was after some pretty good threats.

Others who appear to have received their product early, may have ordered the reproduction carpet kits.

thanks for the feedback guys. sounds like OFI has improved from 2-3 years ago. never had a problem with their quality.

appbiz · 01-21-2004, 03:56 AM

Just to clarify, the above comments about slow shipping pertain to OFI not Applied Business Concepts. We generally ship same or next day. Our products are on the shelf ready to ship and not fabricated after the order is placed.

bought mine from pelican

Paul Thomas · 02-05-2004, 08:59 AM

I ordered an RS carpet set from Pelican based on what appbiz said about fast delivery and not having to make each set as it is ordered. I ordered my set on January, 28th. Today is February, 5th and i just called Pelican to check the status since my card hasnt been charged and i hoped to get them by this weekend.

Pelican has not received them and he (Jason?) said it is because they (Appbiz) have to make them to order. They might be in in a day or two and then they will ship. Which means i MIGHT have them in another 10 days. Looks like i should have gone with OFI.

I do not fault Pelican at all, i should have ordered over the phone and confirmed availability.
