Hi to all you American Buell riders. I am from Perth, Western Australia and I ride a 2007 XB12R [black & red], Suzuki 1250 Bandit and an XR400. I have a problem which I hope one of you can help me with. I bought an Arrow exhaust for my Bandit from "Exotic Sportbike" [I can hear you all laughing at me]. I am assuming you already know that this company are just a bunch of thieves. I paid for the system on the 13th of August and they have refused to reply to my emails and I am now left to assume that I have been robbed. Could one of you please look into this for me so I know if the exhaust has been sent or if they have robbed me. I know they are in Wayne as his bank is the Bank of America in Wayne. My order number is 77334 though this could be a fictitious number. Regards Gary Swinton 0420554522 My email address is g_swinton@hotmail.com |

On Mapquest, there are 10 different Wayne cities listed, including 2 in Ohio. If someone were to help you, more details would facilitate that. |

Why not just call your credit card company and have them reverse the charges? Then file a BBB complaint... |

Gary, I contacted them. They show it shipped at the end of September, and they are going to forward tracking info to you. |

Buewulf, Thank you my friend, I have been buying a lot of bike parts from the states and have found you Americans to be really honest and easy to deal with until I came across this company. Thanks for your help, at least now, I know it is on its way. And yes Swordsmen, I have found that Buell riders are a particularly loyal and honest bunch of people [not that there are many Buells over here]. If you ever come to Australia, I will be the first to buy you a beer mate !!!!!!! Thanks from the Buelllord [Gary] P.S. I hope you Americans can get together and save Buell Motorcycles !!! |

Glad to help. She said they sent it US Mail by the way. Sorry, I forgot to mention that in the first post. Let us know when your Arrow gets there. Or in the sad event that it doesn't, let us know what we can do to help. |

Buewulf, Can you please call them again and try to get the tracking number over the phone. I don't think you will succeed because I don't think they actually have one, which probably means they have no intention of supplying me the goods. Thanks buelllord |

I'm just interested to see how it all works out. Feels kind of like a movie... tapping into your international network to dig up info on a foreign criminal! Hopefully you can get your money one way or the other (refund or product). Nothing sucks worse then getting swindled. ~SM |

When I bought the Blast, I went looking for the best deal on an exhaust for it...Exotic had the best price by far...I asked a local dealer to price match...he said they were "selling" the exhaust at dead cost...why would that be??? Who sells at nearly dead cost? I skipped to the next supplier...got a fair deal and good service... You can find out a lot by Googling "XXXXX sucks"....now days I don't buy anything over the internet or phone without referrals from trusted people. |

Brumbs we can camp out and wait in a van across the street with binoculars waiting for someone to open the box, and after they do, we jump them and throw them in the van and begin the "interview process" |

I wish I could hang out with you guys!!!! I wish one of you could track them down and just confirm for me that the exhaust has actually been sent, because as it stands, I don't know for sure and it is shiting me as I wan't to get my bike back on the road. I am planning a 9000km road trip for christmas and I wan't to get the bike ready. Regards Buelllord |

I will swing by the Post Office in a couple hours see what gives the sales order people don't come in till 11 so I am guessing this is not a east coat Co as 11 here is 8 am Cali time. but I will get the skinny perhaps I can talk to someone in the know |

Ok called wayne PO they have the box as active. I called exotic told em my nephew in Australia was having a problem getting his stuff and since I am down the street I would swing buy and pick it up cause I am heading over there tomorrow. They said it shipped out of Vermont USPS phone # for priority tracking is 1-605-277-4681 I told the answer service I have a problem and to contact me asap so we may have to shuffle this show to the boys in Vermont. I will keep you posted BTW they said they emailed you with the priority tracking # on what do ya know 10-26 I hope you get what you need. Dave or should I say Uncle Dave |

Thanks Uncle Dave ... I wish they would stop lying so I could at least know what is going on. The Vermont USPS is probably bullshit because they realise that they would have a lot of people knocking on their door to inflinct bodily harm if anyone found their location. Is there a way for you to track down their business address. The Street Club P.O. Box 3104 Wayne, New Jersey 07474 United States There must be an address attached to this P.O. box number. Regards Buelllord |

Another thing you could do is file a complaint with the post office, that will make it a Federal offense if you could prove that it is mail fraud and let me tell you the Post Master Investigators don't play games. I was almost taken once and file a complaint and the long arm of the Federal Law Enforcement came and help me. Look at your options since there business is registered in the Post Office Building they may be able to explain you legal rights, I would give the Post Master a ring and see what come out of it. |

Looks like your not the only one http://www.superhawkforum.com/forums/showthread.ph p?t=20244 http://www.bikeland.org/board/viewthread.php?FID=2 4&TID=31276 In fact in a google search for Exotic Sportbike, the first few results right after the their website are people complaining about poor service. Talk to your bank, that might be your only hope. |

How much money did you give them ? I would be more than happy to stop by their storefront and tell them to pony up the duckets as my nephew wants a refund or I might just feel obligated come back...later. I hate scumbags and have virtually no conscience when it comes to dealing with them. |

Froggy, I know i'm not the only one, I should have done my research sooner rather than later but I am a really trusting person and would never rip anybody off, so this sort of thing really upsets me. Skinstains, You have my permission to do some damage. The main problem is locating them, they hide behind a P.O. box number which is shown above. There must be an address associated with this P.O. number. I would love to be able to sort this myself but I am on the other side of the world which is why I decided to rely on my fellow Buell riders. They have so many negative reveiws, I am amazed somebody hasen't crippled this dickhead before today. Why haven't the police or sheriff's department closed them down???? Regards Buelllord P.S. They owe me $533.79US |
