i had ordered a set of 1.5" drop blocks.
i placed the order 4-18-08 amd after a week of waiting i called ,4-28-08, and spoke to danny inquireing where they are and to get a tracking #. He told me they were on back order and he just got them fom the machine shop and they'll ship out tomorrow (4-29-08). I asked him if he would email me a tracking # once they shipped out, and i gave him my email addy and a phone number. 4 days later on
5-02-08 i finally get the tracking #, and a expected delivery date of 5-7-08 (today). I received the package, opened it up to see the nuts/ washers scattered about in the box, and the kicker is the blocks were used or previously installed. they werent taped together when i received them, but one has a sliver of tape with dirt on it from before i got them. they also have a imprint of the washers digging into the aluminum when they were tighten previously. it gets better, i open my receipt only to see i was charged more then the rep. told me it would be. I called and talked to Aaron and told him when i placed the order, how i wasnt told they were on back order, how danny told me they were 'fresh' from the mill gonna be shipped out, how they were used/previously installed, and how they over charged me. He seemed just instrested in getting off the phone. He said he'd refund my $$ they over charged me, and send me new blocks if i wanted, but id have to get him these blocks and wait another 3-4days (heard that before). i told him i wasnt gonna fool with paying for more shipping charges and it was hard enough just to get these in... i told him their CS sucked, but it receiently (last year) had gotten better, but now its getting back to where it was before...he didnt care, and just wanted off the phone.

I had already posted a long review about cpp troubles with some leaf
springs so I won't give another blow by blow, but at the center of the
trouble was a fellow named Aaron. He was condescending and not interested
in being helpful. I had to ask for a supervisor before I finally got the
correct springs. Anyway I have not ordered anything else from them.

That's what's so frustrating, they do have some wonderful products, their
website is very good.

How many bad reviews have to be posted about these guys before people learn to stay away?

CPP loves to charge you for more than what you originally agree on. It's almost like it's a policy of thiers. Happened twice to me, I got the money back and will never do business with them again. They suck!

CPP is not a paying board vendor. They are just one of many companies that sell stuff for our trucks. I have purchased many CPP parts through board supporting vendors that are dealers for CPP. Ive never had a problem with anything. Maybe dealing with a board vendor like I do is a work around if you want CPP stuff. Kinda sad that it has to work that way.

I recently stopped by CPP during a family vacation to check out their big brake setup. Their counter service was a little slow, but their products were first rate. I gave them a large list of parts that I would stop by on Sat. (3 days later) to pick up. I showed up on Friday because of an vacation timing issue. They put the whole order together. The few parts they did not have, they said they would ship them to me, no charge. They stayed after closing to complete my order, then helped me load everything into my car.

When I got home, I noticed the zinc wash on one of the rotors had a blemish. They said they would send me another one and send a UPS call tag for the bad rotor. The rest of my order was shipped 6 days later. They emailed me the UPS tracking info as well.

This was my experence with CPP.
