    You know, as an engineer and aftermarket OEM, I designed and manufactured several innovative parts in the off-road market. Business was decent, I stood behind our products, phone support, you name it. Then an idiot sent our parts to China. They were then trying to pedal parts cheaper, then China started selling direct on EGAY. Now you can find every one of my designs on there. What is sad is I am sitting on novel, ground breaking ideas for that sector that I will NEVER release because I know how this goes. I shut down our off-road division and still get calls to this day. Fact is only 25% really want our name and quality, and 75% want something that looks the same for cheaper. Now we stick with stuff that requires FAA red tape. FU scammers and CHINA!

      This sounds like my story. At considerable expense, I reproduced several parts for classic cars. These were items that are fairly complicated. The repo's were made is the USA - just like the originals - should be important to classic car guys, they are among the most vocal about how everything was better when it was made here. Within months of introducing our products, cheap imitations showed up in the marketplace. Didn't fit right, didn't look right, and oh - 1/2 the price we were charging. Only catch was - total market wasn't that big, so after several months with slow sales - all the remaining product got dumped. Now, neither of us makes the parts!
      People often talk one game, but shop another. Same as you - I have / had more products in the pipeline that I most likely won't release now. Nothing more frustrating that watching your hard work get copied and ripped off by people that have no real understanding of things and will simply move onto the next shiny thing next week.

      Whether you send it to them or not, it doesn't matter. If China sees an item selling well, they will buy one from you and copy it; nothing stops them. There are thousands of oil seal kits on Ebay, there is one model Honda ATV/ATC that had one special seal, within the whole set, and I had thought about selling a complete set for a couple years. I finally did it this past winter and I think I sold about a dozen sets, before suddenly 5 different CHINA sellers sold the same kit, and all cheaper of course. I probably broke even, but they saw me sell a dozen kits fast, in a couple weeks, and they jumped all over it. NAFTA has destroyed manufacturing in the USA.

      @@dc6233 I personally blocked several of our parts that were ordered either in EGAY or our site, from being shipped to China. I didn't give a refund or ask questions. We just never shipped them. They never said a word. Ours were most certainly snagged by jerks in the states and sent to China, thinking they would be wise and undercut us. Little do they know, the second a part is made in China, it WILL be directly sold by China.

    Hello there Jay, I just stumbled onto your video of the valve body BS somebody is trying to pull over onto you. I've been into the automotive repair business for almost 40 years and I completely understand your frustration."work with me,not against me" will go really far with so many situations. I don't want to be nosey or anything but what the hell is epoxy doing inside the valve body cavity. I understand that sometimes you need to modify the transmission fluid passage and direction or whatnot for better shift qualities and such. Using epoxy sure does shine the light on the person or company you are dealing with.

    • @BroaderPerformance
      @BroaderPerformance  Месяц назад

      I'm guessing the epoxy was to make sure the pin stayed tight. Which is ok but it this case the main surface should have been lapped down to where it is flat and not on the surface.

      I zoomed in and looked a little closer, it actually is machined that way. Darn I hate getting old, I'm trying to avoid getting glasses because that means I'm getting old.

    Just order from the manufacturer of the parts to make sure you are getting the originals. I think ordering directly from Broader Performance is the best solution. This is just like all the Milwaukee cordless tools being duplicated. You never know what you are buying from China direct aka Amazon.

    • @simplygregsterev

      This here. Just deal directly with the OEM. Yes you might have to call a phone number and speak to a human vs click n ship. But the person on the phone will generally be able to answer questions

    Another theft example, from real life. A guy brings his car to a repair shop to have its clutch changed. The mechanic does so, and when he finished the job few days later, he parks the car outside. The owner comes at night with the spare key, gets in and drives away without paying.

    The aftermarket performance parts industry has become nothing more than a bunch of copycats. I don’t know how many cylinder head companies are copying the Dart Pro 1 design. I lost count of how many aluminum intake manifold manufacturers are copying Edelbrock. Heck, Edelbrock is now copying the Holley carburetor design! Doesn’t anyone patent or copyright their designs any more? Or is it not possible?

      Customers can be a challenge that's for sure. Often they don't know who they bought something from and go after the wrong person. I've had people screaming at me for a refund because they didn't get their order just to find out they never ordered it with us it was another company. This has happened several times over the years.
