Incommunicado
Has anyone seen Darren (Again). He has been promising to send me out the remnant parts of my kit all week and then yesterday (Post day) was
incommunicado all day.
I would leave a message, only his land line and mobile mailboxes are both full and his mobile isn't accepting any text messages.
Hmmm...

If anyone does see him I still want to buy an Escort width deDion beam.
I wouldn't mind but he subs these out and only has to add one to his order!
The money's burning a hole in my pocket too

How much would that cost? I'm sort of interested.
You know, I'd love to win the lottery (so i don't need to work) then go work for darren for 6 months. Everyone seems to want to buy from
him but no one can. An expansion of bodies for a few months must surely help cover the dip he's been in for a while & rebuild his
reputation.

i dont get this either. must be the type that thinks only he can run his buisness and needs no help. surely more employees would increase production,
therefore more profit and in the process keep customers happy and therefore increase orders.

Maybe he screens his phonecalls? Placing a 141 before the number seems to work like magic at times!

it isnt just the fact that people cant get hold of him it is that darren chooses when he should listen to people who have bought things from him and
still not yet recieved them i bought a deluxe starter kit from him december 2004 and still havent got all the parts for it. people may think i am
being bitchy but if they were in my shoes they would be more than happy to say what i have

i understand what you are saying and take it in but it has been hard for me to follow up on these items due to me not being in the country for the
last 7 months as i serve in the army and was hoping to come back to a full kit but i will sort it hopefully

Odd first post...
No matter.
Yes Darren can be a pain to get hold of. But a phone call usually does wonders. You have to chase him occasionally.
I am waiting for some bits from him at the moment. If they arent here soon I shall be speaking to him ont he phone...

Not saying there are, but i just thought it was a bit of an odd first post. Infact it was double posted (click find on Graveytrains post). Just
thought maybe he/she may be one of GTS suppliers. No problem if he/she is.

If GTS arn't paying their suppliers (not saying they are not), perhaps folk needing stuff for their cars could buy direct from the suppliers who
havent been paid?

...to answer the "how much" question, I hope about the same as std, £150; they're built in batches and the basic bits are the same -
I'll let you know when I find out!

Be careful what you say on internet forums. You are still bound by the law.
If you can find a supplier of GTS that hasn't been paid, then i would like to know about it.
Everything GTS has in stock, every jig, every mould and every nut bolt and washer is owned by me. Everything is bought and paid for, except for that
within agreed supplier payment terms.
Perhaps this shouldn't be the case, perhaps i should pay in the same way that they supply.
Thankfully i now have control over many more aspects directly. We have made more bodywork in house in the past three weeks than the previous suppliers
did in the last 3 months. Its better quality too.
