I am just sharing my experience here so lets not get any debates going. Great guy! You will wait for your parts but his products are second to none. Awsome designs and functional parts. From a business stand point he has been true to his word with me..........when he needs more time he kept me posed in a timly mannor. You will wait for parts but he is getting better about that........he spends allot of time developing new innovative or modified parts so he is always busy and crunched for time, but he prides himself in never letting bad quality parts leave his shop........he offers his personal adivce on things to steer you in what he feels is the right direction, but he will build you whatever you want unless it compromises quality/durablity. :fing02:

Did you buy anything from him?

yeah.....I did not get an x-jet yet but I did get some parts from him......nothing major but it was on short notice and I have been talking to him for several months now. He has always been straight shooter with me......no bs

brraap....thats so 2002
jeff's a real nice guy but he needs to learn to keep up the buisness end of the shop........................now that i think about it, if i built stuff like that for a living you might have to wait for me to finish too.

Allot of his stuff is not made until it is ordered...........it is truly custom made and therefore takes time..............he does not have a warehouse or keep a large inventory of parts......so when he got me what I needed for my build on such short notice I considered it a personal favor, b/c I know how swamped he is. I just got something small that takes no time at all to make but it is the principal of it.

i have never got anything from him but i do likethe idea of lower prices. there seems to be a painful premium on pricing with the limited amount of producers making parts for our sport. competition and price reductions are a great thing, i keep pulling for his business to thrive just for this reason, i hope it does

He's jacking up his hull prices, my 2nd one cost about twice as much as my first one. He might still sell some other parts cheaper, but you will wait and wait and wait for them... and then you'll wait some more :rolleyes:

I'm pretty amazed this hasn't turned into a flame fest yet.

Truth is, he does turn out good products. In fact, I don't know that anyone has ever disputed that at all. But his business practices leave much to be desired. I won't comment with any 2nd hand stories. But there are a number of people on these boards and that I know personally who won't do business with him again.

I hope to see that change, he does have great products.

Chris Riley (jetskinews) had a hood by Jeff fall apart terribly.

Was that the one that the liner separated from? The one he got pretty much for free... and didn't take Jeff up on the offer to fix it for him?

C'mon haters, you can do better than that :sneaky:

Has Jeff ever refunded the people that never got their products????

Sharky!

Sharky got his money back last year... as soon as Jeff got the insurance money from the Post Office. I don't know of anyone else Jeff owes a refund too. I'm sure he owes a lot of parts, but who's fault is that :boggled:

It really doesn't matter if Riley got it for pretty much free or not, it didn't hold up, and Riley is not very hard equipment from what I can tell.

Doesn't matter to me anyway, I don't have a pony in this race.
