I got screwed by bumpkeyshop.com and bumpkey.us which are both out of the same business in Fort Walton Beach, FL.

Order placed to bumpkeyshop.com 2 Feb 2013; still nothing.

Order placed to bumpkey.us 22 Feb 2013 before realizing it was the same jerkholes as bumpkeyshop.com and I still have received nothing.

Google also reveals that many, many people have had issues with this as well...

Just noticed this old thread with a fairly recent comment criticizing Bumpmylock.com and Bumpkeyshop.com. I have never dealt with the latter, but have just placed two orders with Bumpmylock. Both were processed promptly. I received the usual emails verifying shipment with tracking numbers, and both parcels arrived as ordered. The products were as represented and I had no complaints, although the two bump keys were cut a little rough. No biggy as cleaning them up by hand was easy. (Neither worked worth a damn but the locks were tough and I hate bump keys anyway.)
Bumpmylock also followed up with a survey of each product and whether I was satisfied. Clearly they care about their customers.
I hate to see a company trashed based upon one bad experience, although it does seem Bumpkeyshop has several complaints and I would be cautious with them.

Oddly, I was going to order a complete set of Best bump keys from Bumpkeys U.S. as this was the only site that had them all, but something about the site gave me a bad feeling. Turns out Bumpkeys U.S. is really Bumpkeyshop under a different name. Just as well, as I now have Best beat by SPP.

Re: Best Place to buy bump keys for locks in the United Stat

I wanted to do a followup on Bumpkey US (and Bumpkeyshop.com since they appear to have the same owner.) The site clearly has had problems as reported above. The home page now has the following notice:

May 10, 2013:  There is a delay in processing open orders.   The web server which hosts this website had a hard drive failure. Several days of orders were lost. We are going through email notifications since database was partially lost. We are working through open orders now and want to get processed ASAP!  ... We apologize for the delay!

Question: Has anyone dealt with this vendor recently and if so were there any problems?

Their notice above talks about a few days in May so there should be no current complaints unless it is a problem site. Therefore it seems that if they are handling their orders well we should clear the air, but if things still suck we should warn our members.

Jim/bumpkey.us (and bumpkeyshop and several other domains under which he's trying to sell bumpkeys) was previously a member and sponsor here but is now banned from this site due to failure to honor the terms of his sponsor agreement, and the problems members had with ordering from them. They are not welcome here.

Got it MBI. Is there a bad boy list on this site that I have missed? If not maybe there should be. Also, while I sense this Jim person is beyond redemption, perhaps there should be a way for any other condemned to redeem themselves by making good on all o/s claims and generally sucking up.

Considering the other site has several similar domain names under which he operates (someone told me there are at least five, but I haven't verified that myself), and that your businesses are located very near each other, it's not suprising people are confusing him with you. Tricky situation.

If you aren't affiliated with him, I hope you're able to get it sorted out.

The businesses are pretty close. Darren does live at 407 Webster and the Beal address, which looks like a mailbox, is very close. I do hope he sorts things out.

Re: Best Place to buy bump keys for locks in the United Stat

The week before Christmas, I got an email from both these sites saying my order had been completed. A few days later, I received my bump keys.

Only took them 10 months!

Re: Best Place to buy bump keys for locks in the United Stat

Well I found this thread a little late.

I placed an order at bumpkey.us early this week and paid for expedited priority mail shipping. Then I found in their blog that there was a delay in processing orders dated about ten days prior, so I emailed them to confirm that they processed my order and would be shipping it soon. I haven't gotten a response and that was on Monday. I'll wait and see if the keys come in the next two days. They charged my credit card the same day so it seems that their processing delay no longer exists.

I sent another email today so we'll see what happens. I'll post additional information as things either progress or don't progress.

I have an amazing grasp of the obvious. Beyond that, not so much.
