As title, paid this guy on 24th August for gearbox internals for my Evo. The bloke has all but disappeared, doesn't answer calls, texts, emails or PMs on the site I contacted him through. Paid via Paypal, not as a gift so have started a claim, but end of the day I just want my bits 
Anyone on here know him or live near his unit? Address below. Can someone give him a nudge and ask him where my bits are? Happy to lob some beer money towards anyone who helps get my box internals to me
His car (recently written off):

Supreme Automotive
Unit 27, Station Lane Industrial Estate
Station Ln, Old Whittington, Chesterfield, Derbyshire S41 9QX
07894 810 699
He used to have a S1 RST as well, hence asking on here, this was it in 2006:

Cheers fella, that would be awesome. Think he just needs a subtle prod to get in touch / send the box - reading his old posts on the MLR he seems like a nice enough normal guy, yet for whatever reason seems to be messing me around no end 
I don't think he's a scammer, but fook me, a month and 5 days to send gearbox internals out? He's taking the piss

Big thanks to RS Mat, who went to the guy's unit today, only to find it looks like he's gone bust, as the place was closed and boarded up 
Mat tried calling him, to find no answer and no answer machine either, so looks like that avenue is a dead end. Top man for doing that Mat, as said on the phone, I owe you a few drinks etc when I see you

That would be very handy, as looks like the work address option is out. Do you know if your friend might be able to pay the gent a visit?
I simply want my gearbox parts sent to me or my money back

Exactly why I'm happy to be a member on here, some top top people out there that I have met over the years at shows and track days etc.
I don't even know Mat and he's already helped me out, that's properly decent.
Chop I nearly killed once, and yet he still wants to help out
That's properly sound too!

Shocking, its so sad, in my line of work I look after many many businesses and you know when a business is about to go under weeks sometimes months before it does and others are just plain crooks. Hopefully this fella is the former and not the latter.
But when they do go under, people like you are left out in the lurch and I get the letters from the solicitors to pass on to my legal department because they are looking for the owners to compensate the people who didn't get what they paid for.
In ten years I have seen lots of businesses go under and I can only think of one which did the right thing and return money back to customers before shutting up shop.
Despite some of the Trolls and idiots on here, there is a core of long term users who are brilliant and I might get driven away by the c**ts on here every now and then, I always seem to come back.

Hey everyone, small update - Simon Cox messaged me via the Mitsi site I bought the gearset on saying he had been in hospital, and left his phone at home for the last couple of weeks.
He says he is sending the box bits out today. I also had a reply from my Paypal claim process, saying the seller had passed on tracking details - they are:
Carrier: TNT
Tracking no: 0000
So a bit
about it - either he just chucked in the 0000 number to fob off Paypal, or he's not been to the depot with it yet.
Will keep the post updated, at least now I have heard something. Not sure why he's suddenly contacted me unless he has either noticed the net closing (thanks Mat and co
), or if he has genuinely been hospitalised. Either way I'm just glad there's some light at the end of the tunnel

Good news for me, gearbox bits turned up at work yesterday 
Have had a quick check inside the box and all seems to be there and in good condition, so looks like I'll soon be back on the road.
Massive thanks to everyone that posted on here and helped with offers of visits etc
