I know there's been some Google reviews shared here, but not sure I've seen any from Yelp?

Looks like Johnny Bravo is replying to reviews on here as well. Maybe they're more difficult for them to delete... Who knows.
Interesting enough there are some shady reviews going on in the last weeks to counter negative feedback. In my opinion, this time next year they will be operating as another company. People posting threads on here for fenders or hoods from this company are just gluttons for punishment.

I might be imagining things but somewhere in this thread after this fiasco started, I thought someone posted a picture of adv’s owner’s new business filing.

Well, I received my money back via chargeback, the dispute is not closed, so ADV can still counter, but I can't imagine what they'd say.

Anyone else have luck on a chargeback?

(and sorry for anyone that's outside the CB window and facing the real prospect of never getting your money back, I do not mean to rub it in, just sharing and looking for info).
I am in the exact situation as you. Got my charge back (credit) yesterday after an initial 15-day "resolution" period. The cc company is now contacting the merchant for a response to settle the dispute. I uploaded all correspondences and documentation related to this transaction so I expect it to get closed within 35 more days in my favor.

May many others caught up in this mess share your fortunes 🤞 🤞

Nah, they're cooked. ADV makes instagram ads and awkward apology videos; way too many receipts on this fiasco. Remember, they spent "Millions of dollars in tooling"...

"Millions of dollars in Fooling (our customers)"...

This is really a shame - I really like their ram air hood and planned on buying it at some point, but I just don't trust at this point that if I did I would get anything.

Isn't that cute... so we know how this will go right?

ADV goes bankrupt.
Lawyers - If they can get anything will get millions.
Customers - well.... here's $1.50 for your troubles, but thanks for making us lawyers richer!

So wait... are Allan Mindel and Kara Mindel also lawyers? They are listed as Plaintiffs with someone else listed as the lawyer. So if Allan and Kara aren't lawyers, then are they just some sue happy people? Click on their names and you'll see.
