That's when you dispute it with your credit card and tell them to **** themselves.

Sorry to hear of your problems. Auto Atlanta has the worst rep of almost any out there. There are so many reports here on the bulletin board from members. Keep at them constantly, and as I have heard the final results came out OK. Most though were by other means (Credit card, Bank action & Court action) rather than by Atlanta.

Sorry to hear that. Many bad stories about them. I remember purchasing a set of Boxster Twists with new Toyo Proxes on them for $600. Hours after purchasing them I read some very depressing posts about them standing by their products. I bit my nails for 4 days before the tires showed up, and in perfect condition. I must be one of the lucky ones.

Sorry to hear about your experience. RSBarn sells a small block that reduces the throw a bit...Weltmeister also sells a short shifter kit through Performance-Products for $200.00. If only Pelican started selling 944 SS kits.

And the moral here: Never, Never, Never ever use Automobile Atlanta for anything! I live in the same area, and I refuse to darken their door. I rank them on the same level as Motor Meister........

Sounds like the automotive version of Kitchen Nightmares. They need to wake up.

Some people try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

Only problem I had with DCauto is that they took over a month to ship my item. They said it was on backorder from Porsche but they weren't going to email me to let me know and they have the part on their website as saying they ship the item in 48 hours. Always frustrating.

re

I live in Marietta, Ga and use them a lot, with only one issue. Took the part up there and the issue was resolved.

If you want it done right ask for Brad. There is some other person answering the phone other than Brad, and lacks in knowledge when it comes to these cars.

Big items are always bought from Pelican, if I have a few days to wait.

But if you live in Woodstock, drive down there. Less them 30 minutes away.
