I hate to say it but this vendor needs to be banned. They have been caught red handed doing something extremely shady and down right unethical by any standard.

This situation has been handled. We have identified our commission based sales employee responsible for this without our consent. He has thus been let go and we assure you this will not happen again. We apologize for this and our clutch and other products will continue to be of outstanding quality to BMW and exotic car owners.


Thank you,

I am also curious…Based on the "shill" posts, does this mean there is only 1 potential buyer?…Am I missing something here?

Thank you,

Common sense tells me that what has been alleged and proven was too STUPID for a vendor to do and not expect to be caught. Why would someone risk being ousted and banned for a few quick sales. So your story about a rogue employee may be true.

That said, my gut tells me to be better safe than sorry.

Have a good day

Their claim to E39 parts is questionable. So far they have just been caught misrepresenting SPEC's e60 M5 SMG clutch and re-branding it as their own with considerable mark-up costs.

SPEC, the original manufacturer, has informed me that CNS had also done this with E39 parts as well.

FYI people, if you want the true cost and original part, shop direct at SPEC:

SPEC Clutches & Flywheels: Auto Parts, Domestic, Import, Truck, Racing, Drifting :: Home

If you're tech savy, you can compare their products to what CNS is advertising and note similarities...as in take a look a their e60 M5 SMG clutch and compare it to CNS....hint: it's the same.

So basically, no need to go through CNS as they charge more than what the cost of the clutch is on SPEC's website. Cut out the "middle man" so to speak.

X2

but you know money talks and I think the only time I have ever seen a sponsor banned on a forum is after being arrested for fraud.
