madhornets.com Reviews 

hello, I placed the order for this part so they took my money from my Visa card and then send me the email that it's out of stock. It's been more than two weeks and I've been trying to contact them. They sent me email once that they issued the refund, but I haven't received any refund and I tried contact them 15 times at least they don't answer the phone. They don't reply to the emails and they do not issue the refund it's a big scam so I would say people please be aware and do not put money in this website and if the company see this review please I'm begging you to return my money. I'm not that rich. I need the money back so I can order the part from a different website. Please do not scam me. You can scam anyone else who has extra money. I'm already going to a hard time. Thank you.

The item I ordered was the lowest price I could find, by a considerable margin. It took a day after I ordered the item for a shipping label to be printed, but then a week for it to enter the US Postal Service system.
They lost track of the item for another week, which is on the USPS, but it took over two weeks from placing the order to receiving the item.
The good part is, the component (rectifier/regulator) was the correct part, plugged and bolted in properly, and is working correctly.

AVOID MAD HORNETS

I ordered a bulb holder for my Mitsubishi. I told them it was ASAP because I have no headlight without it. They play games but don't ship. I warned them not to string me along or I would go to social media....here I am. Next stop is Reddit, then Facebook...etc. Don't waste your time with these clowns!

BTW...found my part today at Walmart online store. $10 cheaper AND they actually are sending it to me.

Absolutely the worst place to do business with. They will say the part is in stock and take your payment and then tell you the part isn’t in stock, give you a week of run around to tell you they still don’t have it and then trying to get a refund is a nightmare. As of this post it’s been over two weeks and still bo refund ! Do not do business with this company.

I ordered a starter motor for a Benneli tnt 135
There was no tracking resources and when I received my package it was some bearings. I have been in contact through text messages and all they say is we have proof it was shipped to your and show me a picture of my mall box and house.

The part they sold me did not fit the make and model advertised. After two weeks of emailing them they only offered a 10% credit to my account. Avoid this business.

Sent us dead parts on arrival.

When we tried to initiate a return and refund they would purposely respond slowly to stall the 30 days return windows.

Would instruct us to do all sorts of unnecessary tests to prove to them the product wasn’t dead.

I purchased this part from Mad Hornets based on the information provided on their website. The part I received was not the correct version for my application.

When I contacted them about the issue, their initial offer was only a 10% partial refund if I agreed to keep the part. I was later offered 20% if I kept it.

I was honestly unaware that returning an incorrect or unsuitable part was something that could be treated as a negotiation. I expected to be able to return the item according to the company's stated return policy and receive the appropriate refund.

Instead, I was told that I would have to pay the return shipping costs AND a 30% restocking fee if I returned it.

What is particularly frustrating is that I did not see the 30% restocking fee clearly disclosed when I placed my order. Had I known beforehand that returning the part would mean paying the return shipping plus losing 30% of the purchase price to a restocking fee, I would not have purchased from Mad Hornets in the first place.

I ultimately accepted their 20% partial refund simply to avoid losing even more money returning an item I cannot use. I am accepting it, but I am very unhappy with the resolution.

My recommendation to other buyers: read the return policy extremely carefully before ordering, and don't assume that returning an item will be straightforward. In my experience, the refund became a negotiation, with the initial offer being only 10% to keep an unusable part.

Very disappointing experience.

The company is horrible friend ordered a cv tech clutch put it on his machine got maybe 2 hours on it. The clutch was not put together right it broke on the back side where the weight goes. Contacted company they wont answer tried to send out bolts that wont work be because the clutch broke. They dont answer the phone. Worst customer service and company ever to deal with. Been goin on 2 weeks without a resolution to the issue..

Horrible product all springs failed, pushrods bent. Do not buy anything from these people

This site is a scam. They post fake reviews and send secondary market products. Then they try to force you to pay a 30% restocking fee and return shipping. I posted the parts to a site and had the original owner of the photos contact me to tell me that they used his photos and OEM product to promote their second hand merchandise. They claim they are US based and post a contact phone number, but they don't answer it and then send emails claiming they are only available by email. They take 1-3 days to reply to messages. STAY AWAY

Ordered and installed a 4.9 star rated cam kit. Ran great for about 10 minutes then all 12 rockers failed one shortly after the other. DO NOT BUY, DO NOT USE, JUST DO NOT.

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS WEBSITE. They have incorrect fitment charts, misleading product descriptions, and awful customer service. I purchased an item GUARANTEED to fit my year, make, and model, yet received nothing even close. When I reached out to return the part they had offered a 15% refund in order for me to just keep it. Even suggested I sell it locally. After their multiple attempts to make me keep it, while offering up to a 30% refund in 5% increments, they finally gave me the shipping info. I was able to walk away with a “refund” of 70% excluding shipping costs. Total waste of money. Do NOT trust a word on their website, and do not give them a dime of your money.

These people sale junk and are total scamers and they know it. Will not call or email you. DO NOT USE...
wish I had known better. Maybe this will help you

They sent me a faulty part. I wanted to exchange but they're unresponsive after 12 tries. I would have been happy with manufacturer contact info but nothing. Avoid at all costs!

Scam company that seems legit.

Placed international order online for delivery to my hotel near their HQ in Chino CA. Money left my account but goods not dispatched.

Then emailed by service at madhornets dot com asking for a photograph of physical payment card showing last 4 digits, expiry date and name on card ‘because transaction was a large purchase’ (US$150) and further details required before goods could be shipped 20 miles to my hotel.

Sounded suspicious but after cautiously complying was then asked by second email for a photograph of US ID, international passport or other official ID.

I sussed it as a scam, contacted my bank who immediately stopped card and have supplied screenshots of Mad Hornet email requests to them for their fraud team to investigate.

I cancelled order and demanded a refund. That was promised by mad hornets who accepted the cancelled order.

Bank has provisionally refunded me but unsurprisingly Mad Hornets haven’t.

DO NOT SHOP WITH THIS BOGUS COMPANY!

**Review Title:** Poor communication and unprofessional shipping demands

**Review Body:** I ordered parts for a customer’s Honda CRF 250, but after waiting several days, I received an email claiming I needed to pay an additional $30 shipping fee because the part had to be sourced from a different warehouse. Despite my repeated attempts to reach the company by phone, I received no response. I ultimately paid the requested fee on May 27th, yet as of June 1st, I have received no updates regarding my order status and still cannot reach anyone at Mad Hornets. This has been an incredibly frustrating experience, as I am currently unable to complete a repair for my client. I am simply looking for honest communication and the products I paid for. I would advise others to be extremely cautious when ordering from this site.

**Key Issues Highlighted:**
* **Unsolicited Fees:** The request for additional shipping costs after the initial purchase was processed is highly unprofessional.
* **Lack of Communication:** The inability to reach customer support via phone creates a lack of accountability and trust.
* **Order Delays:** The failure to provide status updates or shipment tracking after additional payments have been cleared is a significant service failure.
* **Impact on Reputation:** These issues negatively affect not only the buyer but also the end customers who are left waiting for their repairs to be completed.

Bought from madhornets.com the Camshafts Rockers Lifters Assembly for a 2017 Ram ProMaster a couple months back. My mechanic found that the parts were faulty. We contacted them asking them to replace these as they have a "1 Year" warranty.
Their one and only reply was a lame offer of a small percentage off...That is Unacceptable!
They have not honored their warranty on these parts. They have not bothered to reply to any of my other messages to them. I will be contacting the BBB and the California Attorney General's office for consumer fraud.
It's Interesting to note that some recent 5-star reviews given from 4 different people - Is how each one of them made 2 reviews, each review was made on the same day – one review for clothing and the other review for madhornets.com.
Each one gives a different clothing website and each website they give a 5-star review is for a sketchy company with a low trust score.

Got a part with a 1 year guarantee. 8 months later, the part needs replacing again and they are actively ignoring me. Seems like they're trying to wait to answer me until the one year guarantee is up.

I was happy with Mad Hornets. I
Ordered a pool pump and it arrived early
