Praise given where praise is deserved.
I to have given Darren a hard time with an order I gave some time back. Although way past delivery date Darren has stepped up to the plate and come
good. Part of the order will arrive in Australia this Sunday.
In saying that I changed the order as some items I did not need anymore and he was more than happy to help me out with even parts he does not stock,
can't ask for any more than that.
Hopefully the rest of the order will come soon, and I know it will
Thanks Darren.....
Cheers
no need to shout
What is this; the resurrection?

Taking my 'Admin' hat off for a couple of minutes..... 
I am very pleased for you (oudacontrol) that you are getting your bits at long last.....
But why the shouting and praise?
Seemingly he has owed you this stuff for quite a while?
Surely he should be praising you and your patience .....?
Anyway, here is hoping your parts arrive soon, a very small step in the right direction.
I'm just keeping fingers crossed for the rest who are still waiting.....

I'm just happy...

I see where he's coming from - having never had any direct dealings with Darren, I really can't comment too much. But from what I can see,
aside from the fact that people always moan about Darren's poor service etc., he's actually gone out of his way to help on this occasion.
There is usually a negative stigma attached to GTS, but it seems that things may be on the up now. Not excusing the historical wrongdoings, but a bit
of praise (for lack of a better word) where it's due does offset all the negativity felt towards GTS Tuning.
Or maybe it's just me happy to see another GTS builder?!? 
Good news at last. I know how much of a haslle you have had getting these parts and I am just relieved that Darren has finally got it sorted.
Hopefully everything will arrive safely.

I have stayed out of the GTS debate in the past. I have not, and probably will not, buy parts from GTS. I think this possitive praise for doing what
you have been paid to do, and apparently nothing more (and also apparently less than you were paid to do) is illogical. I have not bought a kit but
bought my parts, mostly second-hand and some new, from countless sources. They have all arrived, in time and as ordered. This is normal. If there has
been personal contact then I will usually confirm parts arrived safe and well, and thank you.
That is all. Praise for part-completed late delivery is crazy. I can only assume this is a thinly veiled attempt to get on the good side of GTS so
that your chances of getting your order increase. The suppliers of parts I have used have ALWAYS delivered.

I don't want to get into a pi$$ing war of words, maybe praise was a little to heart warming for some, but hey I'm an Aussie.
I am happy Darren went down the road of putting things right, he could have waited till I went to court and then paid me a measly few bob a week until
the debt was paid, and this was a possibility but he chose to sort it out finally, this is what I "praised him for" finally doing the right
thing when he could have chosen something else.
And yes I do have a tracking number, and yes TNT couriers called me to confirm arrival for this Sunday, and yes I am still happy.
Merry Christmas all !
Keep us informed of your delivery Sunday - and i'm sure everyone hopes you get ALL your parts.
Good luck!!
You might want to change the description of what you are building before Darren sees it!
See, I can be cheery - it come from being an Australian too.

This is what gets me about ebay feedback... what the hell is...
@~@~@@~@ A* SELLER PERFECT THANK YOU.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
or
+++++++++++++ BEST SELLER EVER!!++++++++++++
really? are they? or is it just that you expected it not to arrive and when you did you were surprised....
I tend to just write...
Product arrived promptly as advertised, thanks.
I completely agree with only giving great feedback for a company that goes over and above, such as the company I have been purchasing cameras off at
work. Their sales guy couldnt find the lenses we wanted so went round to a local electrical store and got them over the counter for us and didnt
charge us for them. ok not good that they could source them themselves in time for us but what customer service in going out and getting them by what
ever means they could!!! The company is http://www.premierelect.co.uk/
cheers
Great to hear it Tony... Hope it arrives safely.
Thanks

I'm 22 and I understand all his mutterings, you're just past it speedy

Do you actually know from a tracking number that the parts are on the way?? If not and its just on Darren's say-so - then i wouldnt be too quick to praise anyone judging from all the broken promises that he has made previously!!
Parts for first shipment arrived as stated...
All parts are of very good quality. Alot of Wilwood pieces so quality is expected. The parts GTS TUNING fabricated for me such as the De Dion, guards and a few others are of very good quality. I have purchased some pieces from other manufacturers including here in Australia and Darrens are up there with the best.
All parts were packed extremely well to safe guard against damage during transit.
Again it has been some time with this issue of mine but at least Darren is doing the right thing to correct the past. Thankyou.
Cheers
