Ripped off by A-Bodies member!!!!

The following is the timeline for my interaction w/Marks340:

An agreement was reached between Illcuda65 of Illinois and Mark of LFR Enterprises, 11 Monaco, Monarch Beach, California on January 25th, 2012 on the sale of new Edelbrock Aluminum Cylinder Heads, 3 stage Porting service, new 1008 Felpro gaskets, and newly reconditioned 1.5 Harland sharp rockers for the price $2,800.00

Illcuda65sent payment in full via personal check (mistake #1). Personal check was sent on 1/26/12, received by LFR enterprises on 1/30/12, and deposited on 1/31/12. 3 stage porting was to take one business week and then parts were to be shipped all together.

Illcuda65 inquired as to the status of parts and service on 2/12/12; LFR enterprises responded that they had a late start. Illcuda65 inquired again on 2/22/12 with no response made by LFR enterprises. Email inquiry was made again by Illcuda65 on 2/24/12 with response by LFR enterprises stating the items would be completed in a couple of days.

Illcuda65 again initiated an email on 3/6/12 for the agreed upon products, no response ensued from LFR enterprises. Illcuda65 emailed again on 3/15/12 with the following remarks, "I am in urgent need of an update. I have left 2 voicemails for you that have been unanswered; I have Personal Messaged you on the FABO.com website, and emailed 2 times w/no response. I took a huge leap of faith paying you the full $2,800 in advance and right now your lack of response gives credence to the belief that I am being stiffed. If I do not hear from you within 24 hours I will be pursuing legal assistance to get a refund. Please contact me immediately."

Illcuda65 initiated another email on 3/16/12 urging LFR to promptly respond for a product update. With no response from LFR Enterprises within the last twenty three days, Illcuda65 sent out an email, a personal message on the FABO.com website, and left a voicemail relaying the following message, "This email is being sent to inform you that I am giving you 72 hours (until 5 pm central Wednesday 3/21/12) to reply in an appropriate manner to me by either phone, email, text, or pm on the FABO.com website as to the status of the parts already prepaid in the sum of $2,800 with check to LFR enterprises. The check was cashed on 1/31/12.



The goal is to receive either a full refund of $2,800 or good parts in the form of Edelbrock heads w/3 stage porting, 1.5 HS rockers, and Felpro gaskets. If notice is not received prior to the aforementioned deadline I will seek assistance from the better business bureau's of Illinois and California, in addition to assistance from the secretary of states in both Illinois and California.

I will also alert the FABO community to the exact nature by which this transaction has been poorly handled.


I find these potential acts regrettable; however there has not been communication on your part to me since 2/24/12. I should not have the additional stress of tracking down status updates from you when my focus should be on my 4 day old daughter here at my home.

LFR enterprises did respond on 3/19/12 that they had been in and out of the hospital with bacterial meningitis and they will call me within a couple of days.

No phone call or contact of any kind has been made by LFR Enterpises since 3/19/12. Illcuda65 has initiated email contacts on 3/23/12, 3/28/12, and 4/3/12, and 4/13/12.

Frequent substantial attempts to resolve the issue has been attempted by Illcuda65 . Illcuda65 does not desire the performance parts any longer for fear of a compromised product from LFR Enterprises as they have not met the terms of the purchase agreement.
