Beware: the Hoffman Group, Portland, OR

[51504bat]

Almost 2 weeks ago I placed an order with Shoe Box Central for a set of Yellow cloth wrapped spark plug wires for the 8ba in my '39 p/u. Got an immediate order confirmation from Chris so I thought all was well. Long story short the wires didn't come and when I contacted Chris he told me the wires were coming directly from his supplier but he would check on the status. Well, he never was able to get a call back from the supplier, the Hoffman Group in Portland, OR (even though he has been a dealer of theirs for years). Chris did the right thing and immediately refunded my $$ and its not his fault that the supplier was non responsive. I then contacted another vendor who advertised the same wires and they told me that they were on back order from the Hoffman group and had been for over a year. I'd think twice before ordering anything from the Hoffman Group in Portland, OR. JMO.
