LIM_Whiteboy4life Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 (edited) Ok, as some of you know i ordered a RAD billet carrier for my stock swingarm and a durablue 2+2 axle. Well Its been 33 days since payment via paypal and still nothing. It seems that both parts are on backorder and wont be shiped out until next week.... I SWEAR i have the worst luck ordering banshee parts online, Took 2 months for a TORS kit, Alba gave me a non black AC bumper, and Now i have to wait 2 months for this bullshit when i see people riding dirtbikes/quads in the grass fields on my way home from work and its a beautifull day to go ride... Watch i bet the shee will croak and toss a rod threw the case after i bolt this shit up just like the stock carrier gave out after one ride on my elkas :: :: Edited March 7, 2008 by LIM_Whiteboy4life Quote

They said they were waiting for all of the parts to come in before they sent them. They didnt tell me they didnt have them all in stock when I ordered them. I know how ya feel. :verymad: Quote

KaosBanshee44 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 Didn't know alba was that bad i'll have to put them on my shitlist after this thread...lol Quote
shovelhead Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 (edited) I guess I have been lucky with my couple of purchases from Alba? I got my order in like 3 days. sorry to hear about your luck ..It will get better as soon as you get to riding again. I think everyone is uptight & fed-up with winter blues.. I tell you who I will not order from again...ATV Galaxy ..they suck! Edited March 7, 2008 by shovelhead Quote

You could carve wooden caps in two months... :laugh: Quote
XxMeltIcexX Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 I've never ordered from alba, but my friends dad ordered him an alba banshee back in 97 at the dunes and it was delivered overnight! Of course it replaced a 250r that took a dump on him... Quote

I ordered my son a Carbon fiber hood for his YFZ like 2 1/2 weeks before christmas. I called ATV Galaxy & he said that it was in stock , and he would make sure that it arrived in plenty of time for Christmas. I even pd. for 2nd day shipping so I could be sure..well not to bore you the long story, but I get the hood on Jan. 12th..after like 5 different stories. I too called mfg. & no orders were pending...It was in stock on Dec 19th. I finally got it after requeseting a full refund..I was told when I finally asked for shipping charges back.." I will make it up to you on your next order" ... Yeah right.. There will be No next order from me! Quote
jamebo Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 I had the worst luck with Alba, I ordered over $400 worth of different parts and got them about 3 months later after harrasing them everyday. They said they were waiting for all of the parts to come in before they sent them. They didnt tell me they didnt have them all in stock when I ordered them. I know how ya feel. :verymad: I ordered my pipe kit from them which was supposed to include an adapter with the K&N filter to run an open airbox. I got billed for the adapter but it wasn't in the box of parts. I ended up never even calling them about it because I had decided to go with an E.H.S. lid which I ordered just after the pipe kit order. Otherwise it would have been an issue with me, I would have not been happy! Quote
LIM_Whiteboy4life Posted March 8, 2008 Author Report Posted March 8, 2008 Ebay: 2 different stores i ordered from for the carrier and axle, on back order of course... Alba: nerf bars, billet pipe clamps, billet impeller, billet EZ drain cover, AC front bumper(suppose to be black), And well you know what it was suppose to be for Xmas but they were holding it because the pipe clamps wernt in.... assclowns ****: Tors kit took 1-2months because of a shipping mix up, i got someones Billet roundhouse carrier and +6-8 brake line.... yeah Quote
rubberneck Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 We should start up a vendors not to buy from post in the off topic area. We could have a list of good ones and bad ones. I have had great luck with some and horrible with others. We could all benefit from a list with reasons why or why not to buy. Quote
