Be Aware Of A LYER, CROOK, & THEIF -CUSTOM MACHINE INC. MARK PRINCE
 
:angry-smiley-038:I am posting this message because this site has brought great knowledge, deals on parts, and friends to my life. It is sad to say that a business on this advertising on this site fell extremely short of the services that he was advertising and unfortunately the service that I paid for and did not receive!!! This is exactly what happened with this deal gone bad! The owners name and company name is:
:angry-smiley-038::angry-smiley-038:
Mark Prinz
Custom Performance Marine & Machine Co., Inc.
349 Military Cutoff Rd.
Wilmington, NC. 28405
910-431-0330
910-452-0942 fax
email, [email protected]


First, let me give you the brief setting:
Back in January of 2008 I shipped Mark 2 beautifully powder coated red World Blocks for Mark to complete as turn-key 555ci/700 HP Engines. He asked for half the payment up front and the second half of the payment once the motors are finished. Being the nice guy that I am, I sent him 85% payment up front (extremely poor decision on my part)! Six months later he closes his doors, keeps my $$$, and ships back to me only short blocks. So, I basically paid 12k$ for 2 555 ci/700hp rotating assemblies and very little machining. BAD DEAL!!!!

I have all six months of all corresponding emails between Mark Prince and myself. He has lied for six moths! Good luck and don’t let it happen to you!!!

Pay another 5 and have him wacked....:angry-smiley-038:

Steve_H 07-07-2008 01:05 PM

learned my lesson on paying too much up front to an upholstery shop. i DID take him to small claims and got 3k back and made his life tough for awhile though :cool:

Sorry for your luck and if i was you i would be on a plane to NC to kick some ass.

ezstriper 07-08-2008 06:50 AM

there has been many post about them in the last year or so....none good as I remember....

t500hps 07-08-2008 07:06 AM

I thought that name sounded familiar....hasn't he been mentioned on here before?

Sorry about your Luck, hopefully you can find something to cover some of the loss.

Budz Motorsports 07-08-2008 07:44 AM

Sorry about your luck. At least you got something back. :party-smiley-004: If you need a shop to finish your engines we would be happy to help.

ROADHOG 07-08-2008 07:44 AM

Until the LAW'S and PROSECUTION'S are STRONGER against people who do buisness in this manner there will always be SCAM ARTIST to RAPE it's customers.

My sympathy goes out too you because I myself over many years have been a VICTUM of many so called EXPERTS that did nothing but take my money and gave me EXCUSES!!!!

teamsynergy 09-18-2010 07:12 PM

Maybe you didn't read the section your were in? I dont care nor do I want to know the situation. But for you to bring to life a 2 year old thread makes me think you are this mark guy. 31scarab got screwed and wanted to warn his fellow gofaster's... nothing wrong with that...

BTW, your remarks in regards to north "caroline" slander are correct but prior to getting your hopes up with lawsuits... remember... slander means a malicious, false, and defamatory statement.... thats not the case here....

Welcome to OSO... lots of great information here.

agree with Rob, thanks Magic Cat (Mark ?). His name had been up before and you just reminded all of us about him. Hope you've got more engines to build, because he won't be getting any business from this crowd.

Not sure what you thought would come of joining just to dig this up but you'll need a little "magic" to make it go the way you wanted :)

Half Of You Proubly Have Never Met Him Or Have Never Had Him Do Anything For You.but Its Sooo Much Fun To Jump On A Guy When He Is Down. Look I Am Not On Here To Stir Up Any Crap Or Make Enemies. But Enough Is Enough. Cut Your Looses If You Did Loose Anything, And Move On. And Yes I Do Have Another Boat I Would Like To Have Him Build Me A Motor For. But He Can Help Me Right Now, Due To Economic Reasons.just Remember Thier Is Two Sides To Every Story.....

kjm5125 09-20-2010 09:56 AM

So, this thread has been dead for over two years and you bring it back to life by trying to praise Mark Prince and attack OSO members??? If you wanted to express your good experience with Mark, you should have done just that and left the other comments out of your post.

What are you talking about........When I join new forums, I immediately search a vendor's name I did business with years ago.....and even though I have nothing else to say, I'm willing to stick my neck out for the guy!!!! :lolhit:

yschmidt 09-20-2010 10:48 AM

This is weird a two year old thread about Mark Prinz, and I was just talking to a buddy that had some guy named Chris Prinz(sp?) call and threaten him in a message on his phone last week.

Is there some connection here?

What a d ick head way to join the OSO COMMUNITY. Dig up a two year old thread advising members not to deal with a crook and blame the person who got RIPPED OFF by your man.

TT as in TOTAL TOOL comes to mind here.

They are brothers. They work in concert. Quite a few OSO members have had bad experiences with them. I dont think it is any mystery that Marks shop has had to relocate on numerous occassions.

And judging by the tone and aggressiveness, MC is likely one of them. Just look at some of their old posts.

Mr Magic Cat: There have been a lot of idiots on this web site that have come and gone, you there fukc lips are the champ!! This thread started out to warn other boaters(by the way "chit monkey" do you have a boat?) that he was ripped off, thats it! You must have a belly full of man seeds from the engine builder to back him like that, cause as you stated, you don't know what the hell happend either. Oh, by the way please dont burp or you might spill some of that baby gravey.:eek:

If That Is Not How It Went Down, Then How Did It Go Down?
