Has anyone ever purchased anything from PG Classic in N.B. Canada?  I'm just wondering about their reproduction quality, delivery etc.
I'm looking to buy one of their 4 speed console top plate reporductions.

I've bought a couple of things. Seems like a good seller to me.

ROMI,
  To expand on my answer, I bought items from him on E-Bay. I believe he goes by Epartsguy(I could be off on that). Anyway, he has good feedback, and alot of nice E-body reproduction parts.

xblade,
  Have you put them on yet?? That was one of the things I bought, but I figured that would be my winter project. They sure do look great. I believe NZ bought these also???

not yet. They do look good and best of all my winning bid was $23 for both pieces. Item number: 7997744970.
Guess not too many people have the 72-74 with rear defog.

I ordered a set of 2 1/2 Exhaust Tips from them 2 weeks ago and still haven't recieved anything. It seems it takes a while for you to get your order. This on the bottom of the EBay ad.

The payment have to be paid in 10 days when the auction ended,The fix shipping costs only cover in USA and CANADA ,the item send out by maunfacture will tack 2-4 weeks.

Looks like they would have some of their items in stock?

I too was thinking about buying some parts off this guy as I'm in Canada. He has a lot of the parts I need to do a 4 spd swap, pedals, Z bar, shift rods, top plate. 

Let us know how the top plate looks if you get one Romi.   :thumbsup:

I DID get one, it looks good but fit needs to be adjusted a little.  As a matter of fact last weekend I fit it to the console by grinding a little off both ends and tapering the backside on both ends. Seems to fit fine now but I lost the wood grain sticker in the process.  I'm not too concerned about that because it seemed different.  I'm not sure exactly what was different about it but it is different from my ip.

I've bought a lot of stuff from them on ebay for my 71 'cuda project. The quality on the parts was absolutely awesome. It did take a while top ship though, but that is understandable. Everything that I has bought from people in Canada take a while to get here. I would reccomend them to anyone, and will continue to do business with them. PS I bought there complete gill conversion kit, headlight rings and exhaust tips. :thumbsup: :jumping:

I have mixed feelings about the guy.  Although his prices are good and his items are of decent quality, he definitely lacks customer service.  I purchased a luggage rack from him and it arrived 4 weeks later shipped direct from China with no instructions as how to assemble.  I called him and he said he would send them....never received them.  I bought gas tank straps with free J-bolts.  J bolts were missing...10 emails back and forth, said they were shipped....never received them.

To make a long story short, if you are desperate for the parts he has then buy from him, but if you have a choice I would always choose a reputable Mopar parts dealer with customer service and would prefer American-made parts.  Just my two cents on Mr. Ping

I have bought a few items as well. I met him at MOPARFEST which is up here in Ontario, I bought a 4speed boot trim ring and interior lock levers. Not half bad stuff for the money. Some of the parts ship direct from China.
This is American Iron we are playing with so I caution all to look at the big picture here and realize where the stuff is getting made.
Small stuff-no big deal. But I'm Canadian and I'm buying as much of the REAL MCCOY (US made) as I can. 
My cuda is still an investment when it's all done.
That's my 2 cents worth.

They suck, pure & simple.
I emailed them 6 times inquiring about buying a set of chrome non remote mirrors.
Last month they had a set on ebay which I bought along with an a/t shifter plate.
I pay pal'd for both the next day and I called and they assured me they were in stock.

I waited a week, called in & spoke to Yim, a nice gal who said they were not in stock and would be shipped from China.
I waited another week and called back & spoke to the owner, peter gee.
He was very evasive about it and said they were probably shipped.

I emailed Yim and reminded her that it is against ebay policy to sell items you dont have and she replied that I would receive them by last friday.

Well they came yesterday, the shifter plate was nice but the mirrors were primered, not chromed.

I called Yim and she said that I must have made a mistake and ordered them primered.
I sent her copies of all 6 emails where I explicitly state, non remote chrome mirrors.
Also the ebay auction # which said chrome mirrors.

She then calls and said they shipped primered ones b/c I paid only 299 for the mirrors, not the selling price of 325.
I reminded her that I requested an invoice for both items with a combined shipping, they sent the invoice, I followed the links and paid. I knew the total was less but I thought it was due to the combined shipping.

So they made the mistake but they said they have a pair in stock in canada, I should ship back the primered ones, and when they arrive, they will ship me the chrome ones and refund my shipback charges, but I will have to pay the extra $26 diff between the chrome and the primered.

Well, they made the mistake and they should eat the diff. But they said no.
So then I said, let me pay pal you the money tonight, then you can immediately ship out the chrome mirrors, and when you get back the primered ones, you can refund me by pay pal.

They said OK but I also had to pay the addition 25 shipping of the new pair- what friggin balls on them.
So I went ahead and paid them another 350 last night.

Today, I called and asked if they got my money last night and they said yes and they will have china ship me out another set asap.
China????????????? friggin china?????????????????
Last night they told me they had a set in canada they were holding for me.

I guess they were full of it.
So now I have to wait another 3-4 weeks for them to come from china, then wait for them to process my refund once they get back the primered set.

Their customer service skills stink, I know there is a language problem b/c they are chinese but they really have no idea on how to treat a customer.

So I ended up paying these crooks an extra 25 shipping, an extra month waiting, and they got 700 of my money and all I have is a shifter plate.
