rpc racing
 

I am looking to buy some screws from rpc racing but they do not respond on private messaging on here or email.

Have they closed down now?

Seen some bad reviews about them so wanted to check before buying.

They didnt send my bearings chased them for two weeks. No reply when i opened paypal dispute. Eventually paypal refunded my money.
Will not be using them again.
If i was you i'd avoid using them

They send my stuff when I ask them.

I will point Ryan to this thread

I bought the CRC screw set at the same time as some other items.
Everything turned up quick enough but when I went to use one of the CRC sets screws I found they were all metric.

Tried contacting through the site but never got a response.

I should have probably chased them some more but just gave up and ordered some from another site.

I got my screw set in the end but it took ages, messaged a couple of times with no reply and eventually raised a paypal dispute which seemed to prompt despatch of the item. Probably about a month or so for a 12 quid screw set. I'd not go back to them but maybe just a bad experience for me...?

I emailed twice regarding a screw set I was wanting to order. I didn't get a reply to either so there's no chance I'll risk placing one.

Ordered parts and turned up no problem:thumbsup:

Hi Guys, if anyone has any problems with anything could you please send me a message on here or via email to [email protected].

I have not been on here for a while however i did not have any unread messages upon logging in.

Regards,
Ryan

looks like RPC has disappeared again

i made an order 2 weeks ago, but it's not arrived, tired emailing them a couple of times but no response from RPC, even tried messaging them on facebook but no response there either, they've also not been online here since this thread was answered 4 weeks ago

looks like i'll have to claim the money back with Paypal


Andrew

same as u Andrew . opened a claim with paypal .

Very odd... I emailed RPC last night and got a reply this morning..! That's good

Suggest you check email address etc...

I brought my screws from a model shop in the end. What screws you after? I might be able to help now after finding a manufacturer of the screws.

I have also had no response since my order at beginning of jan will have to make a claim with paypal ! Must be another scammer as phone number doesn't work either

Anyone tried www.modelfings.co.uk? They don't sell screw kits specified for a particular car or model, but they do have a huge range of fixings and their Cap Screw Box kits look very tempting.

http://www.modelfixings.co.uk/cap_screw_boxed_kits.htm

Plus Modelfixings do all the odd sizes such as M2.5's. I've used RPC in the past and frustratingly they only sell M3/'standard' screws, so if your car has other diameter screws you will not get all the screws you need.

Ryan, replied straight away to me.

@pacman. I use modelfixings all time, cant fault them one bit would definatly recomend

I used bolt base on ebay in the end

right an update where i am with RPC Racing

i opened a paypal dispute with RPC ... then to my supprise, later that day i received a dispatch note from them ...:eh?: hmmmm
no email with an explination or even a simple sorry for the delay, still nothing
anyway the bearings i ordered turned up the day after, well sort of... trouble is, they have sent me the wrong sizes in the bearing kit for my car... (Team Magic E4 RS) about 50% are the wrong size
so i emailed them straight away explaining to them they had sent the wrong sizes and what sizes they should have sent, and guess what.... a week has now gone by and i've had no response from RPC Racing

so back to paypal i guess, and start a new claim, as they replied to paypal with a tracking number for the original didn't arrive claim

i just don't understand why they will reply to paypal and a select few above but not me and others
seriously how can you run a business like this??? it goes without saying i won't order direct with RPCRacing again :thumbdown:

and so it drags on

Andrew

Because of this thread, I switched to Model Fixings..... Two recent orders delivered next day..! and they do have a much better selection , so that's the way to go..:thumbsup:

Does anyone have a address for this rpc scammer still haven recieved my order from 8th or jan ?

I've also realised im not getting my order!!!!! Do not order anything from them!!

I dont understand why people are still trying to buy from them. They have given this service from day 1. Theres been threads like this from last year people putting in orders and not getting it, then emails pms ignored.

Just opened a paypal dispute to get my money back, only ordered because rpc was advertised at the top of the oople page, I think it should be taken off so no one else is lead to order and not receive anything.

Totally agree with you Westie. Its guys like us who support the UK shops to be treated like this. I thought the same as you its at the top of the forum being advertised.

I see there shop advert thread has gone or have I missed it !!!!!!!!!

For good stainless fasteners go to kayfasteners on eBay really good value for money.

I've emailed Ryan to see what's happening - I know if he naffed up his shoulder like me he'd be slightly slowed down so I can't judge him without his feedback.

I didn't get my stuff and still waiting for refund

eBay have just found in my favour and issued a refund. I agree why advertise on here or offer items for sale on eBay, and then ignore them. It would be different if it was a one off case, but this seems to be the norm!!

rpc is no longer
 

i have just found a phone number on paypal and got a reply to a message i sent to him

it basically said that due to a change of job rpc is no longer running and all the orders should have been refunded/cancelled

very convenient that its taken a week of my emails and failed phone calls to get to this conclusion


and the website is still up and running and accepting orders!


BUYERS BEWARE DO NOT ORDER!

Oh, nice of him to let me know. I will take down his banner advert and forum.

His banner has been seen 4,594,783 times :)

missed this thread, wish i had seen it, placed an order on the 4th, now trying to get my money back through paypal

Hello m8

Are you still up and running?

The reason I am asking, I did an order last month and nothing has turned up and did another this month and still nothing.

If you can respond please.

Cheers
Levon

ID say no

I too also ordered from RPC, never again, absolutely shocking company to deal with!

i managed to get my money back through paypal (i never pay as gift) but lesson learnt.
The sad fact is i will now be un-trusting of other on-line shops unless i know them

I know Paul.

I thought i could trust them as it was recommended by another member on the maxbashing forum but i guess you still got too be careful.

I have made contact with paypal.
