The material quality on the Behr units must be shit these days. The original rads last for decades...

I don't think it has anything to do with where I purchased the radiator. As I recall both came in a nice box and both cracked at the exact same place. It's too much of a coincidence that it would have anything to do with anything other than manufacturer defect.Kyle in NO wrote:The material quality on the Behr units must be shit these days.

That's good fodder for a poison pen letter to Behr. Go for it.OcCoupe wrote:As I recall both came in a nice box and both cracked at the exact same place. It's too much of a coincidence that it would have anything to do with anything other than manufacturer defect.
Thanks for the suggestion John. I did email Behr if anything I feel better for venting. I'm not a pessimist; but I don't think that I will get anything out of this other than an apology email, if that.John SCB wrote:That's good fodder for a poison pen letter to Behr.

Hmm, I got a nice polo shirt. Didn't you get a key chain and hat with yours?Karl Grau wrote:I got my Festorics packet today. Not only does the shirt not completely suck for a change, it even has an e28 on it. Too bad it's unwearable because they still put the print on the goddamn fucking FRONT.
So what's the deal with the Oktoberfest stuff? Is it mailed separately? Do we even know where it's being held yet?
Well that explains the beer koozie and the helmet.wkohler wrote:Mike, you have to pay extra for the polo and the hat. No way in hell would I spend that much money on a polo shirt that doesn't have a horse on it. Hell, I don't even own a polo shirt with the horse on it. Target FTW.
No shit. Our accommodations in Morro Bay cost less than those polo shirts. Hell, my polo pony cost less than those shirts.wkohler wrote:Mike, you have to pay extra for the polo and the hat. No way in hell would I spend that much money on a polo shirt
No idea. You'd think that since the same guy seemed to be doing everything, that for the $18.00 I had to pay for a week of ground shipping basically nothing, they could have put it all in one envelope. I've shipped brake rotors in less time for less money.Karl Grau wrote:No shit. Our accommodations in Morro Bay cost less than those polo shirts.

You paid $18.00 to ship stuff? I don't remember paying anything for shipping. I also don't remember our conversation from last night.wkohler wrote:No idea.

.. oh that wasn't meant to be said in a bad way. I'm just happy for Logan to get this together at the last moment, LIKE y'all seem to do.Karl Grau wrote:Hey, I resent that!Keith wrote:You're starting to remind me of the So Cal boys
I'll have you know I moved my cat's aromatherapy two weeks back just so I could make this event.
