Re: Eddie Marine
I just bought EMI Thunder manifolds for my 35 exec. I picked up all the parts at the counter. I was on vacation and we wernt sure of my riser height so Tom gave me one to take and try. Well it was the right one and i called him and had the other 3 from Cal. to Va. in 26 hrs. Great Service! Great People!

Re: Eddie Marine
NEVER buy any of their press on pulleys, though...
I bought a set of EMI pulleys for my HP500, as there was rust on a few of my old ones, and I thought the added bling would be nice. I bought a set, including the press on ones for the seawater pump and the power steering pump. BOTH of these were a slip fit!! They had a 2 mil clearance!!
I called them and asked them to verify the clearances and they said that they were right and would NOT take them back!!!
So, I have a couple of chunks of useless aluminum laying around.
I ended up buying the Hardin press on pulleys that by the way look infinitely better, with the stainless center hub. They fit like a glove.
EMI will NEVER get another nickel from me.

Re: Eddie Marine
Well, its Tuesday and still no pistons. Now I want the tracking # and wont take no for an answer. I called Eddie Marine, through no fault of her own, I got the run around from the receptionist. It seems that Tom makes her do his dirty work and lies. Not that I asked to speak to him, but he told her I should get my tracking # from TrickMarine. What the hell does Fred have to do with this? NOT A DAMN THING. When I asked her why I should contact Fred, she said she didnt know. I then asked to speak to Eddie. Got put on hold for a long time. She finally came back on and gave me a valid tracking #. It seems they will be here tomorrow. Now all they have to do is hold fluid from leaking. The morol to the story, I will NEVER buy anything from Eddie Marine again. 
Too many lies and broken promises.

Re: Eddie Marine
Sorry to hear your problems with Eddie,you now know how I felt.One company I do have to praise is Stem to Stern.What a great company to deal with on Merc. parts.I have made about 11 orders with them over the winter and never an issue or a problem.My parts show up in two to three days and once I had a part back ordered and they e-mailed and called to let me know it would be two more days for the part to come in.
GREAT, GREAT, GREAT

Re: Eddie Marine
We have all felt the pain of getting screwed. It is frustrating. I dont get why these companies do it to us. Is it because we are not buying the volume that say Skater, OuterLimits or Fountain does? Maybe because my name isnt Mike Fiore, Reggie or Skip Barver? But still we are the customers that keep them in business.
I would like to remind them, the manufacturers and suppliers, that we the customers have a powerful tool called the internet to spread good and bad things about you. Just take a look at the view count on this thread---919 and going up.
