Chase bays review

Hello everyone,

Normally I will give companies the benefit of the doubt in circumstances where my expectations are not met. In this case I will not hold my breath. Currently I am in the process of building my dream drift car and although I've had some complications, everything has appeared to work out. I decided to delete my brake booster on my 91 S13 because I'm not a fan of the appearance and I actually don't mind the feel of manual brakes. Chase bays appeared to be a very solid company except for the extremely high prices. Well I was wrong, although I can't provide details on the actually product (because I'm still waiting for it) I can say the customer service is horrible. To start they do NOT have a phone number. You have to continually get into email battles and pray

Strange, I haven't had any trouble with them in the past. Quick to reply to emails and quick product shipping.

Well your story kinda ended abruptly there. Can you give some more info on your issue? How long have you been waiting for your product? I've seen a fair amount of complaints on them myself, enough so that even if they weren't ridiculously overpriced I still wouldn't order from them.

Ive been waiting for 3 weeks so far with about 3 to go. I guess I should have been a little more specific. My main complaint is how difficult it is to get ahold of this company. You'd think given the prices and the people they sponsor that a phone number would atleast be available. If chase bays would have just told me my product was backordered from the start then I'd have no complaint. Unfortunately after a week I started sending emails and after email #3 they responded with my order was backordered and I had to wait. This obviously upset me because I'm on a time schedule and this would have been important information to know from the start.

Had you have looked up chasebays reviews prior to purchasing you probably wouldn't have. They're know for mediocre products and dogshit service/availability.
The only thing they care about are big names in competition.

Well to be honest. I did a lot of research on the product but not the company. I guess I learned my lesson, I just hope someone doesn't make my mistake.

Hasn't Chase Bays always been dog shit though for service and semi-dog shit on product? I had a friend that used some of their products and they looked lackluster for what you pay for, honestly.

Well then I'm really glad I mentioned this. When I was searching for a good alternative to my problem the only thing that popped up was chase bays and knowing that Forrest Wang was sponsored by them i assumed they were atleast quality. Apparently I was mistaken
