Hello!
So just a little over 6 months ago, I ordered a 69 Dodge Charger "premium" grille set. It was a $1500 part but they were running a sale. Which brought it down to about $1200. I could of SWORE it said at the time if the part came in shortly (I thought it was like 60 days) I would get the sale price if I bought then and there, but if the part never came in, it was cancelled
I now, 6 months plus later, get a random email tracking number. It showed only a shipping label was created but not yet scanned by UPS. When I called to try to stop it they said it was too late. The first person I spoke to was really pushing I could keep it, and suggested that maybe I could resell for full price and make a profit, but when I looked up that part on line, NOW that they are at last in stock, the selling price is only $999. No one offered to refund me the difference of what they sell for now and what I paid .....which is hundreds more
They claim they notify the buyers when the parts come in BEFORE shipping but if, and only if, you CALL so they can check a little box but if you order on line, it just happens if it ever comes back in stock..... or may never happen. Seem to me that many people after 6 months may find the part elsewhere in that time (swap meet, etc) .
After a 2nd call, they said they will give me a refund but after I pay to ship it back, and after they deduct their shipping, so it will be at least $100 out of pocket. And if I didn't return it I am rewarded by paying more then anyone else at full prices. It is still however cheaper to return it, lose shipping both ways, and re-buy the exact same thing. Heck, I might even get the same boxes back. What's wrong with this picture?
Am I wrong in thinking they are not doing me right? I paid more for parts from Classic Industries that are cheaper from other vendors thinking I was paying for A+ customer service. This, however, is very disappointing
I don't need this part at all anymore at this point

When ever I had a problem with Classic Industries, Ray always solved it to my complete satisfaction. :2thumbs:
Great you popped up so quickly here Ray, as he certainly deserves his credit on the lower price. Hopefully you've dropped in to FBBO as well to stop the shit storm over there on the same subject! :yesnod:
I was told verbally today they plan to make this right. I will be sure to post the result.

Thank you for the inquiry.
Are you asking about the headlamp motor relay, our part # MB371, that went obsolete a few years ago?
Unfortunately, we have had no luck finding another source for this relay.
I just sent a note to our R&D team this morning, to see if they might have an interest in pursuing the manufacture of this item.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention, again.
Please PM me if you have any further questions regarding this relay.

Hello birdsandbees,
Thank you for the comment. From what I understand, this customer and fellow forum member wishes to cancel the order altogether. As I understand the issue, the confusion was due to the fact that the package has been packed and loaded in the truck already, but the trailer is still at our dock being loaded with other orders. Since the trailer hasn't left the dock yet, the shipment is not yet visible in our tracking software. As soon as this truckload of parts hits the shipping terminal this evening, then we should be able to redirect the shipment back to our distribution center without too much of an issue. We will be refunding the full amount he paid for his entire order, and once the transaction is complete, he should be a happy camper. I believe the agents were confused with how to handle this. We are reviewing proper procedures with our agents and conducting some training with our telephone personnel so they better understand how to handle such an issue in the future. It is a somewhat uncommon issue, but does happen occasionally, and our agents will be counseled on the proper way to handle such a transaction. Thanks to this forum member for bringing this to our attention, our agents will be better equipped with the knowledge they need to ensure complete customer satisfaction should an issue like this arise in the future. We apologize for the confusion, and believe the customer and fellow forum member will ultimately be satisfied with the outcome.

Classic Industries have always treated us and our shop very well, absolutely NO complaints, we find them to be a top drawer distributor. :2thumbs:
After reading your comments, I may have to give classic industries another chance but my experience with them has been bad for several rasons.
Backorder products but they show in stock in shop online
I purchase a headliner with approved discount code but not apply discount on the final invoice, Rush fee apply? and I can't remove a product from basquet that has been in backorder since 2012 visa hold pending status, no good for me.

I've had this problem many times with Jegs and Summit. They even tell you over the phone that the part is in stock and will ship out tomorrow. Then the next day you get an email saying that it's on back order. :slap:

Hello WhiteOnGreen,
Thank you for your comment. We would greatly appreciate another opportunity to serve you.
Please PM me with details regarding the backorder, and we will see to it that the pending order is cancelled.
As far as products showing in inventory, but being out-of-stock. It is a possibility that the product count was inaccurate on that particular, or that the item was misplaced in warehouse and could not be found when they went to pull your order.
I suppose there could also be an issue where the item showing in stock was not in saleable condition, or something like that. But, these types of issues should be a very, very rare occurrence.
I believe that we have a largest in-stock inventory of Mopar parts in the USA. We do have a new site in development that will be launched this year. The new site may very well clear up the issue you experienced with the discount code.
In the meantime, we are happy to work with you to resolve such an issue if you ever experience such a thing in the future.

Glad to hear they made it good. I thought about buying their Underwood ac kit when they had a 20 percent off coupon, but their discounts don't work on anything I'm after. Kinda a bummer.
Classic Industries has made good on everything and ALL IS WELL
I can't let my friends on dodgecharger.com know as the thread is now locked (???)
