The only good thing is no money has been exchanged so far. Like I said before, I would have moved on and found a competent person or bought a predone standalone harness if he didnt have my TBI harness already.

As mentioned in the PM, if Josh doesn't come up with your harness in the next day or two, please let me know.
I have a 1994 Chevy TBI engine harness and a 2004 Chevy 5.3L 4x4 harness both sitting on the shelf. I can ship you the both of them, or I'll just buy you a new harness + tuning from the vendor of your choice.
I feel bad for recommending him, I never would have expected this kind of a performance out of him.

Well Russell sent me a PM today to inform me he saw that Josh aka Voodoo Injection was fired from Cobalt offroad center, aka the only leverage I had towards getting my stuff back. I immediately tried to email him to see whats going on and got a mailer error. Followed by trying to go to the website which no longer exists, followed by the facebook page which no long exists.
****ing fantastic. Im calling Cobalt tomorrow to see if theyre going to do something for me but I might as well write off ever seeing my stuff from this scum bag. I went on his personal facebook page looking for a contact just to see O glory hes going away again until the 10th. Im going to contact and lawyer to see if I have any legal action against him in regards to my wasted time, lost property, and potential lost profits due to my garage being occupied when I could have been drawing in work...
O btw the pirate post is being typed up right now...

Yeah typical pirate chit chat bs. Gotta contact a mod to see if it can be put in the dispute forum. I was fuming this morning and stuck it in the wrong place.

What a POS. He DESERVES a beating period 
. I've been ripped of by an actual motorcycle shop. Bought riding pants, ordered them as they were not easy to find in stock. They took my money and closed within the week to ten days they said it would take to get shipped. I managed to get a stop payment going in time. I was ripped off by a guy who I worked for too. Side cash under the table doing finish cabinet installation in office and bussiness buildings. And new home construction. He would call me and say I have a job, you want to work? I'd be on it. He was trying to get his bussiness going and was doing good but going through a divorce at the same time.
This is many years ago when I was in my eary twenties, but I worked down in San Diego one weekend with another guy and it was hot. We worked about two 12 hour days Sat & Sun to get cabinets in to as many homes in this track as he and I could in the hours we wanted to work. We could work all the hours we wanted. The other guy was lead so he dictater the 12 hours......pussy, I would have worked way more hours and got a hell of a lot more done and paid too
. Lol, Anyway, He stiffed me for that entire weekend of work. Thank god I didn't work more hours 
.
I called and left messages. I went to his house, Pounded on his door, when I KNEW he was home. I even caught him trying to hide in the house, but he would not answer. I knew I'd get the cops called on me if I made too much a sceen at his door from neighbors. I went back with a buddy who was and is a crazy dude. Pounded the door again, he finally answers. gave some sob story about some crap and said he would have my money in 3 days. That day came and went and I went back three more times to his house, left near death threats. Nothing. I had to move on. Life changed and it's now been decades. Life will go on. But I am sorry and sure as hell know how you feel brother. For damn sure.
Or how about the time when I was 8 to 10 years old and two older teen to twenty year olds pulled up in a car, a now in my memory about a 70' chevelle, Red, and asked where Skate Board World was? It was a new skate board park built back in the 70's at the time. I skated there so I told them where it was. The driver complimented my bright Yellow Z-FLEX skateboard. Asked if he could see it. I picked it up and held it up side down, so he could see the Tracker trucks and wheels & bearing and stickers of course.
I had the top of the deck on the palm of my right hand and the rear truck in my left hand with a good grip on the truck itself. The nose of the board was resting on the sill of his car. Both the driver and passenger were complimenting me on my board. Next thing I know I'm being pulled into the car FAST! The passenger had reached over with a fully streatched out arm past the driver and grabbed the front truck and YANKED as hard as he could to rip it out of my hands. IT DIDN'T WORK.
I had a hella grip on that truck and he yanked me right into the driver car window up to my waist. I remember having to kick my legs to get backed out the window. But as the passenger yanked me in, the driver hammered the throttle and burnt out a little and started to take off. I pushed myself free as the driver was trying to drive with me across his lap and arms pretty much. I hit the asphalt street and tumbled and got scraped up but was otherwise ok. If a car had been coming the other way as I tumbled out onto the street I could have been killed. I cried of course and ran to my apartment and told my mom what happened.
We called the cops and filed a report and my mom and I drove the neighborhood for an hour looking for the car. Never found it or them. I healed up, got a new better board eventually and life moved on. How traumatic is that for a kid to have to go through. Probably one of the many reasons I do not trust most humans. They can AND WILL hurt you.
I believe this is one of those times you're going to have to accept ya got took brother. Move on, karma will get that pos.

You must be a connoisseur of soap because I know that's not the word you used. Do you prefer Lux or Palmolive?
Some people just really NEED a steel toe boot to the head. I think this guy qualifies. It pisses me the F off when people do this to others.

So I had nearly a 2 hour long conversation with him today on facebook amidst everything. Some may be taken back that I believe him after whats happened but what he told me today is the most logical explanation as to why he was so standoffish and also very much so explains.
Basically in a nut shell he had a partnership with Cobalt offroad that he was being ****ed on. His lack of time to do my harness was a culmination of them not allowing him to do it during work hours and Im guessing his family obligations. He lost the Voodoo Injection name when he quit, left, fired however it took place Cobalt again Im guessing due to legality. Apparently my calling Cobalt and involving them in the mess going on has motivated Josh to end being taken advantage of by Cobalt.
Its obviously a lot more complicated and after having the conversation with him I understand what took place and how it could be so difficult to explain the situation whilst working/being partners with them.
I dont want to spill the guys personal life on the internet but hes obligated to his new job to be on the road for the next week and plans on completing and shipping me my harness after.
I deleted the thread on pirate and obviously reformatted the title here to not drag the guys name through the mud looking to the future. Again I know some will feel no forgiveness/explanation could possibly be good enough at this point but honestly he's a good friend of Blazinzuk and what took place was rationalized today. I dont have this nagging thought in the back of my head of "How could someone whos a good friend of a member of our brotherhood be ****ing me over like this?"
