Angry SCAM ALERT AutoAnything.com !!!

Well after doing a bunch of research on the Forum . I decided to go with the Eibach Sport Plus Suspension Kit .
I did some Price Checking and found a Super Deal %15 off on 1st Purchase Plus Free Shipping ,and No Tax !
I had problems from the start,but figured it was just a Fluke deal? The Price with $446.21 !
I asked each time I called {4 or 5 times I forget now} is the Parts in stock and will they be shipped on time?
Because My super Cool Local Scion parts guy's {Robert}
told me non were instock anywhere!
They Said" Oh no they are and you will get them on time" It was a Birthday gift for me 8/4 !
WELL GUESS WHAT!
It's on BACK ORDER Till 9/26/13 !
I'm so pissed off right now I can't even type !!
Anybody else have a here have these problem?
Where can I get this Eibach Sportline springs and sway bar kit for such a good price?

I don't think that's what a scam is, they just made a mistake. I'm not sure what kind of deals they will have for you, but Jeremy at @FT-86 SpeedFactory should have some good deals on stuff and they always do their best to keep in contact with you about your order.

He specifically if they were in stock so I would say they were being deceptive. Either they lied and said they checked when they didn't, or they did check and lied to him saying they were in stock just to get his business.

I think most likely they just assumed they were instock which makes them a crappy vendor, but not exactly a scam.

We have sportlines in stock and the sway bars, but not as the kit. Eibach has different pricing for the kit, but if you stick with vendors who do nothing but this car like us we have intiment knowledge and stock at our location specifically for this car. We wouldn't even be able to touch that $466 though.

This is actually pretty common, NOT a scam.

This error occurs when people fail to do inventory updates, and its very easy for errors to occur when you have a electronic system that makes you lazy.

I'm locking this thread. OP feel free to PM any vendors you wish to see if they have any on stock.
