    Default Is Lamonster Garage still trading??

    Anyone know if Lamonster Garage is still in business? I emailed them twice recently about some parts I want to order and have not received a reply.

    There's also a lot of flooding going on down there. He had to shut down as his shop was unreachable....

    Spyder #1 - 2008 GS SM5 Premier Edition #1977. RIP after 80,000 miles.
    Spyder #2 - 2012 RT SM5. Traded in after 24,000 miles.
    Spyder #3 - 2015 F3 SM6. Put 13,000 miles on and sold it.
    Spyder #4 - 2017 F3 SM6. Too good of a deal to pass up!

    Yeah, I have experienced that, Dave......it really does only happen when they are under severe pressure though. It must be a real balancing act when you are a small business and have to travel interstate frequently. Rest assured, 99.9% of the time they are fantastic. We are ALL crabby from time to time (except for ME of course.....I'm always PERFECT! )

    Thanks Guys for your comments. Here in the UK we have not heard much on the news about severe weather in that region. I'll just have be patient but I expect some of you guys know what its like when you get fired up about a new 'add-on' for your beloved Spyder, you want it last week.

    My modesty is only exceeded by my good looks. Or at least that's what my grandmother used to say.

    If "patience" is a virtue, why can't "Hurry the F up" be a virtue?

    How long do I need to be patient? Its been 19 days since I emailed Lamonster Garage about some parts I want to buy but heard nothing back. Guess they don't want the business so I'll have to look elsewhere to spend my money.

    I ordered an item from them on Monday morning and it was delivered Wednesday afternoon. Awesome service! I would highly recommend that you simply give them a call.

    He did post on Facebook that he was closing at noon today so he likely won't be contacting you today. He has said before that phone calls work best for them but that's not great for you being in the UK.

    If you still haven't heard, it's my guess that your email is now buried.

    I agree re email vs phone - I would love to phone and talk through what I want with USA vendors, but I would have to get my head around the time zone, then spend a fortune on a call.

    So, like you, it's email or nothing for me. There's another supplier I've been trying to contact - so far absolutely zero... That said, generally I've found USA vendors prompt and efficient - my latest effort is the odd one out.

    If you haven't already - may I suggest you send a "new" email with your complete query, and tell them you're in England and it costs a lot to call. You could add '2nd request' if you feel it will help.

    I have e-mailed Lamont a few times regarding questions with the Spyderlovers web site. He responded ASAP and was very helpful. I met him personally at Spyderfest this year. He and his wife were very cordial. When he responded to you he must have been having a bad day. Thank You
