Dear Friends,
Sorry about this but I guess I need to reply to all John's lies, the only info I asked his customer about was to obtain 8 mounting bolts for me as they were not available in the Islands, as for the photographs some here with attached I sent them to him emediately and his take on that was he could not see them.
It would surprise me none if the used motors was not the same that was returned from his customer who offered them to me at a lower price which I did not accept. As for the postal services in the azores they examined the parcels and could not find any parcel dammage except for their comment that the packaging was not up to standard for what they were ment for. The motor cost is $549 and his insurance value on the shipping is only $220 each so even if there was a ligitiment claim which was not the case I would have been out of pocket. John has been ducking the issue now for 5 months with E/Mails and threats and I have decided a while ago to no longer deal with his underhanded way of doing bussiness and will leave South Africa in May to the US to buy what I need to finnish my instalation and then on to the Azores to complete same, I am not trying to get something for nothing all I want is to be treated fair, my instalation budget is +- $12,000.00 and if I can find another supplier for the Mars 0709 motor or simular which my fabrication is based on I will purchase one.
Best Regards,
Paul Beaurain.
