    Dont Ever Use Sin Customs

    Well, I finally got the situation with SIN customs settled. My minicocker showed up on my doorstep today. At first I was happy (well somewhat happy, yet annoyed at the 6 month turnaround time). So i take a look at it before opening it. It was shipped out on MAY 10 2002, not in the middle of January which he had been claiming for months.

    I then opened it up and found my gun to look like a dried piece of leather that had been painted over. The pneumatics were all scratched up (they were suppoed to be powdercoated as well but he didn't do them). The gripframe and front block were also supposed to have been powdercoated (he probably just didn't feel like it). The regulator also came back with scratches on it (left my house brand new).

    I then tried to assemble it (after carefully documenting everything with about 40 pictures). Nothing fit. Instead of taping off the holes before painting, he probably decided it would take too much time. So I now have this gun where I had to sand every single hole, as well as the inside of hte body, in order to get the pieces to fit and move somewhat freely.

    I've been jerked aroundy this guy for 6+ months. He supposedly had it done in December and was "helping me to sell it" by putting pictures on his website. Well, i've yet to see the pics on his website and he didn't even send it out until May 10. I strongly suggest NOONE DEAL WITH SIN CUSTOMS. I wish I had known about Army's bad experience before I sent my gun out. I remember hearing about it like 3 weeks after sending my gun and was somewhat scared about him having it. Well, looks like it happened again and he screwed up another gun.

    I've got a LOT of pics. I'm only gonna post a few to show you the examples.

              I just had a really weird thought. Might he have been using it to play with?

                      Jonno......the paint looks like it's gonna just fall off. I think he baked it too long or something like that. I guess it would look cool if that's what I had asked for, but I was told I'd be getting a SMOOTH gloss finish on it. That's not what I got. He only powdercoated 2 out of 10 pieces. That's not what I paid for. I basically got screwed by this jerk.


                      Kutter: I know he didn't play with it because when I received it back it didn't have a timing rod with it and was in pieces. It was supposed to be "assembled and timed" by a local cocker tech that he was friends with and they were going to sell it. That obviously didn't happen.


                      I do plan on taking him to court, but am giving him a chance to make it up to me monetarily. I figure it's going to cost $100+ to get it working through technician, and I'll be getting it repowdercoated by a local guy that can do the job right (won't be as flashy, but will be done right). That'll probably cost me $100 or so. And then the original $80 plus shipping costs I paid him.

                      Like I said guys, STAY AWAY FROM SIN CUSTOMS. I've had no dealings with redrider and K&P but have heard nothing but good things from my friends who have dealt with those two.

                            damn I would die if htat happened to me. Take the crackhead down. It does looked like it was baked too long and started to crack it or something- so he applied another coat of gloss to seal it.. cracks and all?
