| I CAN POLISH .com ... What happened?
Does anybody know what happened to this place?
The guy on RS doesn't respond to PMs, hasn't been on since last September.
Called and no response.
Emailed and no response either.
I wanted to order something from it, but not so sure anymore...
Did something happen to this guy by the name of Ben?

I know the owner personally. To my knowledge, he lost interest in the business and is whipped (that's not new lol) and is probably too busy working. Want me to ask him? |

Oh yeah, I also know he was previously looking to sell off his business to a perspective buyer who has more time to run the business.

especially when prices in the states are 30-40% cheaper and bringing it here will even beat Canadian pricing by 10% at least.
i think there is still eshine.ca ?

Last time I bought something from him he was quite busy with other stuff, I think it was only his side business anyways, but if he's not going to run it anymore he should at least take down the website

i was skeptical, but it really doesn't scratch your paint and i have soft japanese paint.
smells great and has a nice shine after the car is dry.

I just talked to the owner. He said he passed the responsibilities onto someone else. As stated, this was his side thing. He got a new job last year and looks like he is busy with that. He said he'd look into the emails and stuff, so he'll try to reply.
