Why is 6speedcoupe so rude?

[ls1pimp 10+ year member]

From all the rave reviews he is given on here, i decided to contact him about installing my equipment that i pulled out of my old car, and wanted a trusted installer to do for me. Instead of telling me he doesn't like to deal with outside equipment he says to me via pm "you have equipment already? Is there somethign wrong with the products I carry?". That response pissed me off very much so, and i refuse to deal with someone who is going to cop an attitude with me, no matter what quality they provide. Then it hit me that this was the same guy i also talked to a few years ago, inquiring about an eclipse head unit. Back then, he freaked out when i started asking him to install one i got at another shop, and was also extremely rude to me. He was much rude that time though, he completely lashed out at me when i told him i heard that i can still get a warranty on my eclipse head unit if it isn't installed by a certified installer, and he accused me of not believing him and basically of being ignorant (and obviously he was wrong, it was under warranty from a year no matter who installs it).

That's great if you guys all rave about him, but it's safe to say that now I'm not going to be buying anything from him, nor having him install anything. I would actually pay more now at this point if i have to, to at least know im not supporting a guy who feels the need to be rude and disrepecting to potential customers. I know Don will read this and I hope he does, because he completely lost a potential customer now, i refuse to be treated like that.

And i am sure he will chime in and there is nothing that he can say to his defense in my opinion. A simple "i do not like dealing with outside equipment" would have sufficed, but instead, i was given a very rude response. I just find it unbelievable that the guy who did this same thing to me years ago pulled it again (i didn't know it was him, because i talked to him through email the first time and didn't know he was on message boards). But i put 2 and 2 together after i found out his name and location. That is all.

PS : Im not upset that he wouldn't install outside stuff, i don't care about that and his policy is his own business. i am upset that he was outright rude to me for no reason

i don't give a crap what kind of reputation the guy has on here, and im sure he probably doesn't need my business, nor care if i buy anything from him. I just wanted to make it clear of the unnaceptable way I was treated.

Ever considered it might be you?

I'm tired of giving quotes out for stuff when the 80 people, yes 80 PEOPLE that I've quoted have not followed through with anything...

actually no, how could it possibly be me? He doesn't know who i am, all he knows me as is a consumer who asked a question. All i asked was if he could install some equipment i had and i was given that response back.

well this guy was in my area, and i was 100% ready to use him, as long as his price wasn't absolutely outrageous ( i would have exceeded my budget because of his reputation) but now i wouldn't even buy his stuff even if he was 50% cheaper than the next. And that sucks about your situation, but that's kind of a strange assumption to randomly make about someone on the internet that they won't follow through just because they ask a question? Also, maybe no one follows through because your quotes aren't competive enough? With my box quest, i finally settled on a builder who wasn't even the cheapest, but i just felt the most comfortable with. So it was highly competive for me, i had quotes from several builders, all of whom i was highly considering, but after a few days thought, just settled on one.

meh, he was nice enough to me... not chatty, to the point. maybe you saw that as rude?

I figured i would get mass flames, because everyone on this forum loves this guy, but that is fine with me. I didn't post this to get approval or respect, just to tell my situation.

This is really not the forum to say something like that. There are not to many people that will agree with you.
