    Order was shipped out this afternoon. #### bro never said I wanted anything but a reply to a email or for someone to answer the phone. Didn't think that was much to ask but some ppl seem to think so here..I didn't give a crap who emailed me frome there but yes when I purchase something over say $100.00 and never hear a word back. I begin to wonder. Glad u make enogh money to be able to throw away 300 bucks to the wind on a whim and not worry about it.. and on the ups thing. Ain't that the truth lol! Much perfer fedex or dhl then them, but with fedex u never know if its gonna make it to u with them forever flipping over the trucks lol

    I live about 40 miles from sparkys shop and have bought a couple of radios and a amp from him. His radios are the greatest price wise and his sets ups are great BUT and I say BUT if you buy something and he has your cash in his pocket the nice guy he puts on is GONE I bought a texas ranger radio and the light for meter went out 3 days later. Took back and he said I don't have time to fix it bring it back later. 4 times I have been back and same thing. I bought a texas star amp and got it home put it in and the fuse blew when I turned it on. checked all my connections all was ok. Took back and he said amps have no warrenty at all this was 4 hours later!!!! he then asked what I did wrong. He Took it apart and it worked fine he said its fixed I said put the cover back on and fire it up. He did and it made a big BOOM fuse blew. He took it apart and a piece put in at the factory was touching the case. He put a piece of electrical tape on case and said here its fixed yea right I made he give me another amp and guys I will never buy anything from sparkys again:biggrin_25516:

    To "The last rebel" and "Kazak88"




    It's amazing to me that other than a bit of slow service........4 or 5 days.


    You 2 want to run a good man that provides a solid service out
    of town on a rail.

    You want to smear his good reputation and more importantly....do it on a
    public forum.

    For what........slow mail/shipping.

    It's very clear to me that neither of you two has ever tried to operate any
    kind of business where there are phone calls to answer...customers to talk
    to in person...emails to answer...orders to work on....orders to pack and
    ship....and in addition to this carry on a personal life.

    The only thing you two wanted to do was smear the mans good name and
    reputation all over our forum.

    Makes me glad I don't run a business and that you two are potential
    customers.

    You finally got your radio.......didn't you??????

    Where's the online sincere apology that you owe Sparky's.

    You spent $300.00.....a drop in the bucket in the grand scheme of
    things.....I wonder how much damage and how much
    potential business you have cost with your posts.

    Sparky's does good work. Al can be short sometimes and hard to get a hold of but he does a LOT of business and he's basically a one man show and EVERY radio he sells goes across the bench before it ships. Geez have a little patience. I hate to see your patience out on the road. :biggrin_25512:
