I recently in March had numerous conversations with Raul from Rapido Marine - About purchasing a 4.3L Vortec Mercruiser Motor for my boat from his company. He was very obliging and told me he had the motor and it would cost me $1650 plus shipping cost of $219 to Australia and $100 for him to do the paper work. After I wired the money from Australia I heard nothing in over a week, no replies to my emails etc. I contacted Raul and had a 3 way conversation with him and Robin. Robin was in the middle of stating to Raul hat she had not shipped the correct motor earlier because they had none of the 98 vortec motors in stock, Raul cut her off from discussing this very quickly and then shipped this old motor only a couple of days later.
After approximately 5 weeks our motor arrived in Sydney I paid $1000 to get the motor and when my mechanic was trying to install the motor nothing fitted. He then told me it DEFINITELY was not the motor for our boat and we had been ripped off and looking at www.rapidomarine.com website the motor is completely different and a very different price to what was sent. I have emailed Raul numerous times with no reply except once was how can we help and absolutely nothing since, I have called him from Australia approximately 6 times and left messages and still nothing. I email him regularly with the problem and nothing
