ooh.. That's a bummer. DIYAutotune is in the process of running a coupon for up to 25% of your order on their website.. They said for every 100 facebook "likes" they will take 1% off upto 25.. they are around 12% right now and it ends this week...


But, sounds like you have some fun ahead of you!

Update:

Boost Engineering website still says I haven't paid them, and any attempts to get into contact with them have been so-far failures. Reports on internet seem to suggest that this guy might not even be in business anymore. So until I get my parts (or if I get them at all) I won't at all recommend Boost Engineering.

So anyway, whoever this guy is that runs Boost Engineering... he doesn't appear to be someone I'd recommend. His website still says I haven't paid him (which I did immediately) and when I call him or email him, I get no response. He presses ignore on his phone and doesn't care about my voicemails, so I am going to have to use Paypal to get my money back.

I'd be extremely hesitant to order anything from this place. I've had no response from this guy whatsoever, despite the fact that I placed a nearly $900 order.

hope you can get your money back. These situations are nasty

Title isn't correct now... apparently it doesn't begin

Just made an order of mostly the same stuff from DIYautotune. Right now for the next 6 hours they are running 18% off coupon "ILikeDIY" saves me a bunch of money!

Heh, hopefully. I still haven't been refunded for the first order. Paypal will automatically refund me if the guy doesn't respond by Wednesday. Worst case scenario... I could end up with doubles of everything and no refund. :/

It appears to me the boost engineering guy is dead though so I doubt he'll ever respond...
