First line of his OP. 

[DRKWNG]

He's out in Nuremburg I think. too far for me, otherwise I'd stop by and remind him about us

It's not that far.  I used to date a girl that lived there when I was in Germany.  Takes less than two hours to get there, and it's a lovely city.  Go and enjoy a weekend and pop by his shop.

He is a Sponsor of this forum (look over <) Nobody should have to go "prodding" around looking for him.

Exactly.  But continual prodding is exactly what you have to do if you want anything from 'em.  I have a better idea.  make the beast with two backs 'em  .

Definately not interested in that, especially now that he's had my money for close to 3 months.. His stuff is by far the best looking product on the market. I can only say this from photos as I have yet to recieve anything. I just ordered from Spareshack and if that stuff shows up first, I'm going to blow a gasket.

I'll see if I can make some positive contact to get him motivated.

I'm 30 minutes from Nurnberg, next time I pop down there I'll see if I can stop by.

DMF sponsors should be held to a certain standard. If they can't, at the least, communicate with someone that has sent them money, the flounders should not allow them to continue to be a sponsor. The allegation would have to be verified and I'm sure the flounders loathe to be involved in any sponsor/customer issues but... I for one expect the sponsors allowed here to be vetted and be safe to do business with.

I had the same problem.... after email didint work I had to make many many many calls to get it all done, but I did eventually receive the parts... as mentioned by others his parts are good, but for the price they should be... I wonder if this is a part time business?
Rather than see any action from the flounders...personally I would prefer if Chris took all our comments here as constructive criticism and fixed the problem.
I would have spent more money with him but same as all you guys found it just too hard.
I have owned small business and been up to my arse in alligators trying to get clients work and orders filled...so I can understand how this happens if it is part time or a hobby... but not in a full time operation...  not sure if it is just me... but I have had to wait forever on most parts ordered for my monster, even from the factory... do you think is it a ducati thing??
Hope you get your bits sooner rather than later.... Cmon Chris...talk to the man please !!!

Doesnt need to be so complicated.  If there are sufficient complaints to our Glorious Leaders regarding a particular sponsor.... then all the Flounders would need to do is contact that sponsor to remind them of the standard expected.  Follwed by removal as a sponsor if theres no subsequent improvement.  Our Flounders would probably much rather get rid of an unresponsive sponsor than be continually pestered by the complaints of disgruntled DMFers  .

I dont think Chris and Desmoworld are unworthy, but a reminder from On High of whats expected wouldnt hurt.

Chris's poor ears must be BURNING!

[scduc]

This is really not where I wanted this to go, I just have not heard from him in 4 weeks. My last email said that he forgot to send them and was very apologetic. I agree that a small business owner can be up to their ears with work. (that is good if its the case) If there was a reason for not being able to ship (back-order / funds not received), then I could understand that too. The money cleared my CC Co. 3 days after order which was 2-27-11. On 4-8-11 he replied " OMG OMG OMG !!!!!!!!!!!!!

whats happen i see you box was still here :-(

i will check if theres any problems ( dont think so ) and get back to
you with the shipping information

Chris

I've sent him 5 emails since, and no replies. That is why I am some what concerned. If they have not shipped, I am OK with that. Just let me know. If they have shipped, then give me the courtesy of knowing the tracking # in case there the package got lost in shipping.

[hbliam]

I do a lot of business online. You are much more patient then I. There is no way I would do business with a company that takes my money on 2-30, hasn't shipped as of 4-8, and still has not shipped or replied to emails on 5-7.  There is no "small business" excuse. At this point I would say you have no choice but to dispute the charge with your CC company.

I had another box of goodies arrive today from Chris at Desmoworld, its been three weeks but most of the delay was Chris waiting for the small carbon exhaust guard that I'd ordered but wasn't in stock. The goods are always well packed and arrive in a perfect condition and the best thing is that they actually fit perfectly which is'nt the case with some suppliers plus theres always a small bag of candy...

[scduc]

Well, after sending an email this morning, I finally got his attention. I said I would contact my CC co. and cancel payment. That, not surprisingly received a response. He still has not sent a tracking # and said he will look into it. For the most part I am a patient man. And if I get my goods, I will have no problem purchasing from him again. I am getting the impression that he really needs to hire a secretary to help with these sort of problems. I also see that he is in the process of moving.
