My whole point about the product I bought from you replaced my DN4t3 transmission. I spent more money keeping it going then I paid for the transmission I purchased from you TKO 600 . Andy from Corvette Guru was one of the people that explained the differenced of all the replacement transmissions. Before I put the 383 stroker super ram I was getting almost 30 mpg with the TKO 600. I have finished the complete install and am waiting to take a trip to see what I get. Testing day is coming up at Famosa Drag strip I will see how everything meshes. No one as I can see is complain about a bad product. As I told others that were dumping on me what accurately happened will come out. Thanks Shafie for coming on this site to at least try to calm the situation that was getting out of control When APGENE went after me I could smell something. It wasn't exhaust gas Quote: Originally Posted by noonie View Post Ya, I'm sure he would be more than happy to post his company and personal asset disclosure. Like I said, the people screaming the loudest are those that didn't lose any money. If you have anything to contradict Shafi's statement then post it, otherwise its just idle speculation on your part. I have no doubt if it was a lie that he'd sold his house to pay for the business Apgene or someone else would have posted the proof that he hadn't.

Well, I'm glad to hear that, I'm less concerned about losing my warranty than I am about not being able to get my RS400 repaired down the road if need be. For me the worst of this is the superior product isn't going to be available anymore and those with an inferior product succeed and profit from their dishonesty Quote: Originally Posted by Priya View Post I'm sorry for those that lost money but can we have a little objectivity and honesty here? I read Keisler's facebook post too and its obvious to me there was crooked competitors that contributed to Keisler going out of business (if they weren't solely responsible for it) and there was nothing Keisler could do about its suppliers being unable to meet their demand for products. Keisler intended to provide people with a product for their money but were unable to make that happen and not for a lack of trying - that's not "the exact same way" Madoff did business. The people that are screaming the loudest about this aren't the one's that lost money(apgene, etc.). Shafi Keisler didn't make money off of this venture, he'd stopped taking a salary and had to sell his home to try and make a go of it. The only winners here are the dishonest business people that couldn't sell their products based on its merits and so told lies about their competitors like "Keisler doesn't do anything to the used transmission cores they get in, they just sell them to their customers as is."(American Powertrain) Priya, You are spot on about the competitors. In fact, the one you mention above (AP) has their agent on this thread - APGENE. This person, Gene Charsha, was genuinely dishonest and we had to sue him in Knox County Chancery Court in 2012 ... and won. In his deposition under oath, he revealed a number of things about working for the competition AP, including that he took 1.4 Million dollars of orders. I will be releasing the full transcript of the trial in a blog and make people aware of the truly crooked acts and loathsome people involved in selling these transmissions. Their mode of operation is all about getting the sale, getting the buck and screwing the other guy. There is no shame in what they do or how they do it. In fact, this scum bag Charsha attacked me on the highway last Thursday morning, trying to ram my truck at 60mph on Pellissippi Parkway. He was a total lunatic - all over the road putting many other people at risk of getting hurt and had traffic slowed down to 10mph at one time, along with slamming brakes in front of me trying to cause an accident. 911 got calls, and I got it on video and the Alcoa Police are informed and I will be filing charges shortly and will make this public as well for people to know more about Charsha. These are the people AP employ ... and this is how they do business. Regarding KE, as the President and CEO it is my responsibility for the company, the customers and vendors, the employees. There was absolutely NO intent to fraud or take from customers. As my statement mentioned, the decision to cease operations was made within just days. In fact, I had just brought in a very large amount of capital in the form of cash and nearly 100 transmissions to the company from Liberty Gears just a little over a month prior. KE had shipped over 1000 transmissions in 2013. I had a very good meeting with the Trustee for KE's case today and he has indicated we will work swiftly together for the benefit of the creditors and finding the right buyer for the large number of assets at KE.
