Motor City Resin Casters order

[Fat Brian]

I just wanted to review my order I received today to show potential customers what to expect. First, I got my stuff in 8 weeks which was exactly in the 7-9 week window estimated when I placed the order. Second, the packaging was excellent, small parts in clear ziplock bags with larger parts in baseball card boxes then inside a larger shipping box with plenty of newspaper for stuffing. The parts are great with minimal cleanup needed and as crisp of detail as I've ever seen on reproduction parts. The hood has the frame detail on the underside and the bumpers came chrome plated which shocked me, I expected them to be bare resin. The plating is as good as you'd see in a kit. Overall I'm very impressed and they will most likely be getting more of my money in the future.

Your experience mirrors mine exactly, except I didn't wait 8 weeks, just a couple (this was a few years ago). The body I bought, you'd swear it was an original '60s model molded from that lovely virgin AMT white styrene. Absolutely first rate operation in every way!

Nice haul, and glad to hear of the great service as well as products.

[Kris Morgan]

That's how we do things here in Detroit.

I have bought from them in the past. Great products. Got to meet some of the guys a few years ago at a show. Top notch.

Ive bought several items from that detroit group.

And NONE of it has failed to please me.

Them boys make some nice stuff

I couldn’t be happier with this bunch! I walk up to them at NNL East and they treat me, like everyone else, respectfully and their product is awesome! I have quite a few pieces to build for my column!

I have a few pieces from Motor City and very happy with all. Although it took a while to get my last order, I am very satisfied and it was worth the wait. I just received the 60 Ford Fairlane 4 door which is flawless and the 63 Valiant Wagon I bought at NNL East. The resin is as smooth as plastic and hard to tell the difference. I guess you can say patience pays off. The Detroit guys know what they are doing....for sure!

[Tom Geiger]

I have the 1963 Valiant wagon and it is wonderful!    Well worth the price and any wait. I ordered that and the postal Jeep and Jeff hand delivered them to me at the last NNL Nationals.

For anyone else wondering about Motor City Resins, I recently posted in a different thread but will repeat here: 

Just a few days ago I ordered the '41 Plymouth 4-door sedan.  Jeff e-mailed me the next day to let me know he got my order. He also warned that it might take some time to cast and deliver, especially given the current national situation.

[Ironheadfan]

Oh man! I placed my order in mid-July and I did notice that they said to be prepared to wait 6-12 weeks. I guess good things take time. It's okay, I have plenty of other projects in the works in the meantime.

[keyser]

96 weeks, stuff must be insanely good. 
Not. Cool.

I ordered 2 kit in January 2022, no problem getting a reply from him then. Waited my 12 weeks tried to get a progress report, and haven't heard a peep. No reply at all.

Tired of countless stories about many vendors for decades.

Been over a month for my order. Still waiting patiently. ?

[keyser]

PayPal used to be 45d then not retrievable. Don’t know now. CC do chargeback. 
Yes we’d like our stuff, but 6wk max or communicate or refund. 

[Mike C.]

Is This entity still in business? Did I flush $60 plus down the toilet?

[kevin l]

if you paid with paypal you have up to 6 months to get a refund

[Mike C.]

I did use PayPal. I'll give them the 12 weeks and see what happens. 1 more month.
