Reed Farrar Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 ok so i have been wanting to get a 170 amp high output alt from mechman for almost a year. then i finally get the money and order it for my 2001 oldsmobile alero 2.4L. i wait a week and then i get a email that says the tracking code and everything. about a week later i receive my alternator. everything looks great and im super excited to put it in my car. go to my dads shop to put it in. we start taking out the old one and my dad is telling me that shit aint gonna fit. i just keep telling him dad its made just for my car and engine. so we try to put it in and the post and plug are on top of the alterntor instead of on the front. so the post is poking the intake and there is definitely no way this would work. so i take it out put my stock one back in mad as hell that i spent this money and it doesn't fit. so i call mechman and they tell me to send them pictures of the stock and the mechman alt. so i do and they tell me i can send it back so they can move the post and plug to the front were it was suppose to be the first time. i ask the guy brian i was talking to if i could get a shipping receipt so i wouldn't have to pay for shipping since i shouldn't have too. and he tells me we can send it back for free but you have to send it to us and pay for the shipping. so i get real pissed and he just says thats all we can do for you. so i said whatever and called them again and talked to someone else and i talk to josh and he is real cool trying to help me out. he tells me if i return it with my money and then email him a picture of the receipt they would reimburse me. so im like hell ya i guess things are starting to workout after im about to kill myself cause all the bullshit. so i send it off in about a hour and email him the receipt and tracking number and all he says is wow!! is shouldn't of been that much. it should of been no more then 20 bucks he said. and asked if i had special insurance or anything. i emailed him back saying my mom brought it for me and that was the cheapest they could do. which was 39 bucks. so its today and he still hasnt emailed me back from yesterday. so i email him again. call and couldnt get a hold of him. so now im just sitting here pissed cause i had to pay 40 bucks to ship something back that should of fit in the first place and they wont even give me my money back after they promised to reimburse me since its to expensive to give out shipping labels for free. so im just stuck now waiting to get a email. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team_DC-Derrick Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 you are complaining about not getting a response after waiting 1 day? dude he gets hundreds and thousands of calls a day im sure. Calm down and relax a bit.. He has the reputation he has for a reason, if 2-3 weeks go by and no response then I would be slightly upset.. but I doubt you will wait that long next time dont jump the gun. 2 Quote The DC Integra 3 18s to 6 15 build log Team_DC-Derrick's Youtube Team DC Audio where theres a will theres a wall.......

Reed Farrar Posted September 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 i guess yall are right. but i just hate that he can email me back in like 30 minutes but then he doesnt reply to me right after he says wow it shouldnt be that much. that makes me think im not getting my money back and i really need it right now.

Team_DC-Derrick Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Hes probably not even at the computer, hes probably building your new alt to the case that it was supposed to be in. Gotta remember not everyone has a job that allows them to sit on the computer or phone 24/7 man especially a job that requires you building stuff lol Quote The DC Integra 3 18s to 6 15 build log Team_DC-Derrick's Youtube Team DC Audio where theres a will theres a wall.......

ChevyBoy95 Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Patience my friend. Some companies take months to get products from... An depending on te quality, people are happy to wait. As far as mechman, they will take care of you, just be patient, maybe send another email I a few days if no response, and I mean a few work days.
