Well I ordered some ARP'S and an exhaust mani bolts from ziggy on thursday.
They just came in today. Looked great! This is my first time ordering through him, I know he's the main man to deal with on the board, and now I know why laugh

Thanks a lot Ziggy!

Thanks, Ryan, but there are a few that don't. Some of my "better" customers that I have extended credit to in past are getting all indignant because I am asking that they actually PAY for their stuff 3 months after they got it. Can you imagine the nerve of me, expecting such a thing? One of them even told me by PM:
"And I hope you go broke and close the doors forever. Calling me a clown. Look whos talking you fat eating cheese burger bastard."

Don't be surprised if I do a few less "favours" in future, and if I insist that ALL parts are paid for IN FULL before I ship them..

The guy who made that statement has paid, & is no longer a customer of mine. I don't see any need to spread his name..
One of his buddies is giving me a hard time, he is next. Just going to get my money from him, then he can buy his parts elsewhere also. Customers like that I don't need or want.

You've broken your Ziggy cherry! wink

Probably one of the best guy's i've ever dealt with on this website, or as a vendor in general.

btw, Ziggy sorry i haven't had a chance to reply to you for those things I need yet.. I've actually had a couple set backs but i'll be getting in touch in a few weeks for some quotes! smile


I wish i had the money to build my motor

The nerve of people eh?

It's too bad you got stiffed like that. Tell them where to go, how to get there, and never talk to them again.

Close the doors... cheeseburger... The nerve! mad

Honestly, I would like to see that person in your position, see what they think.

I don't know how anyone could say anything bad about Ziggy, or to Ziggy. Even though I haven't gotten parts from him (yet), he's always been quick to reply with a quote and has always been helpful.

I appreciate everything he's done for me, and I don't know how others have the nerve and ignorance to say harsh things

I can second that. Ziggy has always been there helping me out. If it wasn't for him my talons would never see the road. He bends over backwards to help anyone out he can. Because of him being so nice I tend to buy parts new from him. A little more then finding some used parts. But helps him, and I won't have to replace that part for along time =]

This board is lucky to have Ziggy.

If something unfortunate happens to Ziggy,*god forbid.
Will anyone take over? what happens to RTM?

I will be lost on where to get some of my parts.

Ziggy makes buying the parts you need hassle free.

Couldn't agree more here guys. I ordered an exhaust for the Spyder through ziggy this last winter. Got it with no hassle and a hell of a deal. When I later found out that Megan Racing hade a huge defect in their production I called ziggy to ask him a few questions. He was very helpfull and generally concerned. I didn't expect that, thats for sure. I will be doing more business in the future here ziggy, im done with alot of these other companies.

By the way, Megan is sending me a brand new "revised" downpipe ziggy. Thanks for the help again!

Glad to hear it..it just didn't make sense to me that a company could offer both a downpipe and a catback that were not compatible with each other...

Hopefully Megan isn't going to ship cross border with UPS....would hate to see you get screwed on the brokerage fees...when avoiding them is the reason most people come to me to start with..

I'd like to jump in here as well...

I've only had a couple transactions w/ Ziggy (twice? thrice? I dunno...) but his service has been stellar every time. Parts arrive on time and are packaged nicely. Plus, he sits patiently throughout the buying process while I hum and haw about what I want smile

Thanks again, Ziggy.

I've purchased parts from Ziggy a half dozen times or more and he has *always* provided stellar service. Prices are great, packaging is top notch, and turnaround is fast. I never have any reservations dealing with Ziggy and have great confidence that he'll always do his customer right.

RTM is my vendor of choice! tu

Once again I am going to suggest that we have a sticky thread for Ziggy that remains at the top of this section.

Ziggy. I think you should post the names of the people who you mentioned above. I can vouch for the type of guy you are to deal with and I know that whoever pulled this bullshit on you is a meat head. There is no other explanation. So personally I would like to know who these people are so I know to steer clear of dealing with them. After all that is what the "Good Guy/Bad Guy" section is for.

I'm pretty sure the number of Ziggy's satisfied customers will always heavily outnumber the dissatisfied ones. All I can say is keep up the excellent work Zigman tu.
