shucky Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Does anyone know if Robert Bentley (RB Motion) is still making his wonderful aluminum fittings? His website has been weird for several months and he is no longer on eBay either. I did send him an email yesterday, but no response yet. Just curious if anyone has ordered from or heard from him recently. Thanks guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Van Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I bought a bunch of his stuff at the Toledo NNL......it was his first show and his prices were REALLY low. Some of the best aftermarket stuff out there....hope he is still making items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre Rivard Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 He still is but it takes time to get the orders filled. I just received fittings purchased in November. If you e-mail him he eventually answers. Beautiful parts but plan ahead, he appears to be very busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an aftermarket manufacture myself and someone who loves RB product......7 months is unacceptable. If I take more than 2 days to ship product I am in the hospital or away.....one week was the longest it ever took. 7 months to me means refund.

Hemifever Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 So I emailed an order back in April, he requested payment May 2nd, which I sent through Pay Pal. Emailed him June 2nd for an update on the order, his was reply was " do you have any info on the order was it last year or what". Forwarded the original order and payment info, no reply back. Going to Pay Pal to start dispute. To bad, ordered from him for over 10 years, really great stuff, but when his website got funky it sent up a red flag. Should have known better.

Back when I bought from him each Toledo Fall meet he was a great guy. Even offered some 2nd's that were a good deal. But as someone that made resin kits at one time the biz that was your hobby can get difficult to keep going. So I will not come down to hard......but maybe it is time to just shut it down. Don Holthaus knew when it was time....many others too,,,,,,,,,, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
