Problem with vendors.

[denny]

Whenever I emailed a vendor inquiring about price or give them a list of parts and ask them for prices, they never respond back to me.

Is this just me or is this not acceptable??

I fiugure email would be easier since they can do it whenever they have time instead of me calling them when they are busy.

many ppl have filters and many of us recieve dozens of emails daily. I suggest a pm bc they work the best for me. I know the pm's I can read digest and respond to in minutes compared to spending an hour sifting thru emails and then me filtered stuff trying to find the few that were real.

Pm doesnt always work . There have been numerous times where my first choice of vendor to purchase from hasnt worked out . No hard feelings , I just went to the next vendor .

Re: Problem with vendors.

well if a vendor doesnt respond back or give you the time you deserve, there are a few others willing to help you out. I would say email is definately a good way to communicate atleast in the early stages of purchasing. Atleast for us, probably 40% of the phone calls go unanswered b/c we are understaffed and if we spent all day on the phone answering technical questions, nothing would ever get accomplished in the shop.. So email is definately a great way to reply back at our convinience and have a paper trail of quoted prices for when you decide to actually order the parts.

My only suggestion when emailing, is to try and be as specific as possible. Whether you are looking for prices on a specific part number or a quote on an engine rebuild, the more information you provide will only help in providing you with an accurate quote that does not inflate 110% by the time you are done building your motor.

I dont see any reason why a vendor would completely ignore your emails (atleast they could say they dont have time or the desire to help you) so it is possible the emails are just not reaching them.

Re: Problem with vendors.

I always email my questions and never had a problem, they always reply the next day. RPM helped me a lot, even when I was in Brazil and needed an answer in 20 min.
