Well a few months back i ordered a swingarm from Craig Patterson owner of cp customs.Everything went well on the phone and was very accomadating.We had agreed for him to build me a +4 roundhouse swingarm with extra bracing and skid plate mounting tabs.He did not have a blaster rear skidplate to match up to so I sent him mine and Craig stated he would just put it in the box with my swingarm once it was complete.Craig stated it would only take a week to build.Well skidplate was shipped and shortly after he stopped answering my calls and will not even contact me.I was alos going to pay him an extra $175 to chrome it,thank god I didn't go through with that at first.Unfortunately I am an idiot for sending him $385 as a "gift" through paypal.Worst mistake ever and I know it now.But in the end I am acustomer and you should deliver the goods.I am not even a nagging customer,just keep in touch.Well heres how it goes.

On Feb 10th I spoke to Craig himself on the phone and we talked about the details.I sent him the skidplate on the same day.$18 and change to ship it to him.

On Feb 11th I sent the money via paypal $385

Feb 16th the skidplate arrived to him.

Feb 19th I called him on the phone and got no answer and left no message,He called back 10 minutes later asking if someone called craig.I spoke to him and he said it was not done yet cause the storms and rain and power outages were holding him up.He stated he would finish it in the next few days.He asked Iif I was going with the pc or chrome,I stated chrome.He said he was going to stop by the chromers that night and get back to me with an exact price.

Well many of many of calls later and no answer,no call backs, no response just takes your money and run.So I am out $385 for the swingarm,$18 to ship the sidplate, and an ac racing rear swingarm skidplate(paid about $100 a year ago. I would not do any business with cp cutoms or craig patterson,if you do you will get taken.So $500 is about the magic number.I have had enough,time to tell all of you guys to steer clear of this thieving scammer.
 
that really sucks bro...hopefully he takes care of you....but at this point i guess i wouldn't be holding my breath
 
His forum has been down forever it looks like.His number is 225-773-0520 His website shows his old address.His new address is 10389 Mammoth Ave Baton Rouge LA, 70814.I have done hundreds of transaction in the past year,year and a half between ebay and forums and then this happens.Not good by any means.
 
I'd KEEP calling him, every day, as many times as it takes. He can either refund your money or send you your swingarm
 
every one on here should give him a call haha. i wrote his number down on a sticky note and put it by my phone just in case :)

I call him quite a bit lately since I for sure know now he is taken me for a ride and from many different numbers.Problem is there is only 4 area codes in my whole state,very easy to figure out.
 
Dam that sucks dualstroke out the money, swinger, and skidplate. I hate to see this type of sh*t happen to a nice guy like you.

Maybe you'll get lucky and here from him since the big PlanetSand race is over.
 
is there any way you can dispute this with paypal? Or maybe not since you marked it as a "gift" you said?? I would still try though. Can't hurt.
