that was a bizarre situation that had close to zero chance of working out
from the get go.  nothing about it made sense and the results were fairly
predictable.

i was floored last week to hear from a vendor trent took for 4 figures that
he was opening new accounts at other vendors while putting the vendors he
robbed down as references.  hopefully law enforcement will intervene before
many more people are taken.  i probably should send out an email warning to
my customer list, which goes back over a decade. to inform them of the
situation.

You hit the nail square-on with a 3# hammer!

I learned a long time ago that trust is what we base our lives on.  I 
personally go on the 3-strike rule, but then again I have open relationships 
with everyone I deal with, and they know when I am not happy.  Maybe it's 
oversimplification, but it works for me.  BTW, I had several conversations with 
Trent just before the implosion, and received everything I asked for in a 
timely manner.  Go figure.

IN the meantime I wait to see what happens and step aside most of the flames.

BTW (tic), LHO didn't do it.

Best,

For Trent:  You were handed a healthy business with an excellent reputation
and an established pool of loyal customers.  You blew it.  I know nothing of
your circumstances or problems.  It is not my business but you have not
offered any mitigating information except promises of an explanation that
never came.  An explanation may be interesting but performance is what
counts.  

For fellow list members:  I don't see any point in banning Trent from the
list unless he misbehaves.  I doubt any of the regulars here will be tempted
to do business with him any time soon.  Personally, I wish him well but his
bridge is well and truly burned, IMO.

If something happened and I got told about it I'd consider 
forgiveness. With no explanation I'm not so charitable.

2013-07-29 Thread Hendrik and Fay

My take is that Gary has served his time in the sin bin.
Trent may well have earned his.
Personally (probably because I have no desire to buy MB parts from the 
US) I am wary of Gary, after his comments regarding Rusty and his old 
business on another forum, however it would seem the majority of the 
list want him back.
Basically if you got old car you need new parts and preferably buy those 
parts from a reliable and knowledgeable source, not some huge parts site 
run by spotty teenagers who wouldn't know a spark plug from a Welch plug.

Would someone tell the whole story of just what the hell happened with
Trent? Just once?

Seems Q2 crashed on takeoff and the wreckage has not been recovered, the
black box has not been found, and the NTSB report isn't even started. [To
put it all in aviation type terms.]

IMHO, it would be best coming from Trent. Seems the demand for parts still
exists, customers still need parts, business opportunity still exists. In
or Out?

He can write whatever he wants (it might be interesting to read, kinda like 
watching that train wreck vid) and stay on the list for all i care, but nothing 
will change the essential facts of what transpired.

I was driving all afternoon and thought about this a bit.  When I placed my 
order end of May, a young lady answered the phone and took the order.  Polite 
and professional and friendly, all in all a pleasant transaction. I believe she 
answered when I called a coupla times to find out what was going on.  He could 
have given her a script to follow to share the magical mystery back then.  
Waiting two months now to reemerge with some promised story (Worldpac ate my 
orders?) begs questions, especially when he blew off Rusty too.

We all acted in good faith to help him get started and in thanks we all got 
screwed.  Nice.

I would say, if we're going to let Gary back (and I really don't have a
problem with that) then if Trent is "back in business" or trying to be,
we should let him attempt to recover what's been lost, or make things
right, to the extent that he can.

We as individuals are all capable of deciding for ourselves whether we
do or don't want to patronize any vendor who may or may not be part of

Since this was the original question, this I will address.
I use Advance Auto for a lot of stuff now, with the over $75 free shipping and 
online coupon codes, they are tough to beat. Mercedes parts are not 
particularly plentiful though. 
Rock Auto is good, but shipping can get you. Again, MB parts may not be 
plentiful. 
Autohaus AZ. My biggest problem with them is they ship from AZ, :) As an 
example, look up this tracking number at UPS. 
1Z8582860353036252
I have had very good luck (pricey though) at Carquest (WorldPac distributor) 
locally. 
I *may* try Gary, but his online prices are way high. Perhaps he will cut a 
better price on the phone. I don't know. 
I have successfully used Auto Parts Warehouse also. 
I found a PA dealer that sells parts online, and has very competitive prices, 
considering they are OEM parts, and have the Tri Star logo on them. 
 
If you do the math, the keyboard work can be worth it. If twenty minutes of 
work, shopping and price comparing can save twenty dollars, that is sixty bucks 
an hour of after tax money. Considering a total tax bite of thirty percent 
(FICA, Medicare, Federal, State, County taxes), that would equal over $85 an 
hour before taxes. I am sure there are some here that may make more than that, 
but that ain't bad money for comparison shopping. 

In conclusion, it is a lot more work to buy parts now that Rusty has moved on. 
If Gary can come close on price, that would save a bit of keyboard work.

Re: [MBZ] parts sources, again

2013-07-28 Thread Rusty Cullens

I miss selling all the folks on this list as well. I wish things had gone 
better for Trent, I continue to offer any advice to him but he won't respond to 
me. I have forgiven Gary for accepting 17k in my Amex deposits from web sales 
at buyMBparts.biz that went into his buyMBparts.com checking account when we 
first split, because my wife insists that I move forward and upward with my new 
position at World Pac and get over the past. Well after 37 years of marriage 
she knows a lot more than I do, so I am doing as she says. Keep Trent on the 
list, he may turn this around, add Gary back, make them both behave. Don't buy 
from Trent for me, buy from him for his service, same as Gary. I wish I could 
sell everyone through World Pac but it just isn't to be. Good luck to all 
finding a parts source, I personally would stick with the smaller guys like 
Trent or Gary over the mega parts guys but that is just me. Adios my friends!

Huh??

You want Trent banned for his behavior, but you want Gary to not
stay banned for his behavior?

If one (Gary) can be re-instated because he gets another chance -
why should the other (Trent) not?

Buy from Gary if you want.  Buy from Trent if you want.  But Gary
had multiple chances to change his behavior - but he didn't.  So
whether he is a great parts supplier or not is immaterial to
whether or not he is on this email list.

Gary's behavior did not involve stealing from the list members or trading on 
someone's (Rusty's) reputation and taking advantage of the list membership in 
doing so.

I agree that his behavior was highly inappropriate, but he didn't steal or take 
advantage of list members.

Totally different situation, and one that I don't see a direct comparison with. 
 The logic is flawed.

I would agree.  While I am a believer in forgiveness, I draw the line when 
someone willfully steals from me.  I never received all of the parts I 
ordered, nor did I get a refund.  When I attempted to do so promised were 
made, not followed through with, then I was ignored.  One could argue that 
it wasn't a lot of money, but that's not the point - it's the principal 
that is at the core of this whole situation.  We placed our trust in Trent, 
he took advantage of it, and now it's considered that we should this all 
aside and pick up as if nothing ever happened?


The premise that we should do this for Rusty is a false one as well. 
Think of the logic:  We place our trust in someone who has stolen from us 
so that Rusty can be made whole.  Who is benefitting from this?


Since the credit card companies made good on the money he ran off with 
makes him a'ok, right?


Not exactly the formula for ethical business practices.  On other lists I 
belong to this behavior gets you banned, and rightly so.


I'm sorry, but I think the whole thing stinks to high heaven and that 
Trent should be banned.  His actions were inexcusable.


Just my $0.02.

no assumption and no opinion in that, just facts:


   Lies:  took money with the promise to send goods in return. 
   Promised this multiple times to multiple people.


   Thief:  Took money from multiple people and did not send the goods
   in return.  Went dark -- phone, email, etc. and kept our money.


Liars and thieves are good at coming up with all kinds of "explanations" 
for their behavior.  I am pursuing criminal charges against him with the 
local LE, let him and them and the banks/CC companies sort it out.  
Y'all can join in if you wish.

Re: [MBZ] parts sources, again

2013-07-28 Thread Dieselhead

Silence leads to speculation. Silence by someone holding your money leads
to intense speculation. Despite an obvious melt down for what ever reason
on your part there are two debts incurred. One is monetary, and is
apparently being addressed. The second is a debt of business trust and
goodwill, which came with the purchase from Rusty and is owed to members of
this group for the loyalty and trust they placed, and that he earned and
you accepted with the purchase of the business, with them, as individuals,
and as a group.

I would strongly suggest you attend to both of those debts with full
recognition of their value, regardless of weather or not you ever sell
another car part in this lifetime.

Both do not respond to silence and are not settled by avoidance.

Man up, pull up your big boy pants, and press on with honor.

Re: [MBZ] parts sources, again

2013-07-28 Thread Dan Penoff
I would agree.  While I am a believer in forgiveness, I draw the line when 
someone willfully steals from me.  I never received all of the parts I ordered, 
nor did I get a refund.  When I attempted to do so promised were made, not 
followed through with, then I was ignored.  One could argue that it wasn't a 
lot of money, but that's not the point - it's the principal that is at the core 
of this whole situation.  We placed our trust in Trent, he took advantage of 
it, and now it's considered that we should this all aside and pick up as if 
nothing ever happened?

The premise that we should do this for Rusty is a false one as well.  Think of 
the logic:  We place our trust in someone who has stolen from us so that Rusty 
can be made whole.  Who is benefitting from this?

Since the credit card companies made good on the money he ran off with makes 
him a'ok, right?

Not exactly the formula for ethical business practices.  On other lists I 
belong to this behavior gets you banned, and rightly so.

I'm sorry, but I think the whole thing stinks to high heaven and that Trent 
should be banned.  His actions were inexcusable.

Just my $0.02.

Sounds good to me. I could use a vacation. The door seals are 
easy but I don't know if even the offer of a vacation is enough 
to get me to do another roof seal. I'm still thinking of doing 
them on the sedan and I'm putting it off at least till winter so 
I don't melt down here. Which reminds me. After I got through 
with the front seal I decided that the rear sunroof seal didn't 
need to be done after all. Wonder what caused that? ;-) Frankly I 
think as long as there isn't any wind noise then they really 
don't need doing anyway. I will definitely do the little side 
brush things. They are easy and quick and when the do start 
coming apart the pieces tend to clog up the drains.

Re: [MBZ] parts sources, again

2013-07-28 Thread Buymbparts
No not pawned, I will post an explanation of my problems later. I don't care if 
you want to read them or not. This forum is awful good at assuming your own 
opinions. At least I'll give you a reason. Not a thief either, most of you have 
been credited back for parts not shipped, if you haven't you will be.

I'm surprised you don't have news about Trent - you contacted all the

Subject: [MBZ] parts sources, again



Did the hive-mind ever decide who was the best to go to for parts now?

I'm thinking of finally doing the front-end overhaul on my W123 300D.  I
have an old parts quote from Rusty somewhere, so I think I know what I
need, but where to buy and have a decent shot at getting quality parts?
Jabba?
