Review: CustomLowz Enclosures (Avoid!)

Wanted to share my AWFUL experience with Justin Przytulski / CustomLowz enclosures, in hopes that anyone searching for a custom subwoofer box builder doesn’t make the same mistake that I did.

He / CustomLowz advertises and posts a lot on Facebook, which is where I found them. I contacted him there in March of 2020 to build me a fairly simple, sealed box. He quoted “3-4 months” to get it to me, and he still hasn’t even STARTED it.

Yes, over a YEAR AND A HALF later and he hasn’t even STARTED my box yet, but is instead posting his assembly line products to sell off-the-shelf, even though he has a deposit for my custom order and is over a year late on delivery with it.

There have been no attempts from him to reach out on his own and say, “hey sorry I’m late. The reason is ____.” I had to go out of my way and ask wtf is going on every few months just to stay in the loop for something that i paid a deposit for already.

And that deposit he requires - he makes you use PayPal which will not refund your money after the “3-4 month” lead time he tells you initially. Seems like 1 big planned scam to screw over customers and keep their money without ever making them a product.

I thought I was very fair and within my right to ask for my deposit to be refunded last month (over a full YEAR after i was supposed to receive my box), but Justin’s reasoning for saying “no” was, “I’ve replied to all your emails and it says on my website no refunds.” 🙄 Again, he hadn’t / hasn’t even STARTED building my box yet. And now he won’t reply to my emails anymore, either, and blocked me from messaging him through FB.

Look elsewhere and BUYER BEWARE!

Never heard of the guy but hopefully you saved someone else from going through this.

Come on Dave, Judge Judy! This should be handled by the professionals like this guy.

I don’t have Instagram, but yes I posted on his FB business page and he blocked me there and deleted my posts and comments.

I posted on some other car audio / “subwoofer box builders” pages on FB though and have received a lot of replies there, including some from the business owner. So fingers crossed he just sends me the refund I requested…

We’ll see.

If you are across different state lines, you're better off just dropping it and counting it as a loss. I was going to pursue money from a member on here (looking at you, Deadlier, aka Josh Kleckner) who still owes me 4k. My lawyer told me 4k wasn't going to be enough to justify the hassle going over state lines.

No true I worked for a company based in Florida I live in Illinois,worked for a company in Based in Ohio and they did`nt want to pay me for work done in Illinois and Missouri multiple state lines and I got paid my enforcement from Illinois Attorney General`s office,they hurried up and paid me and asked me if there was anything else they could do to make sure I was compensated...I`m sorry Skizer it sounds like either you had a Lazy lawyer or he was just dumb

you waited 18 months for a product you paid $255 for, bigger question is why did you wait this long, sorry but your money is gone, write it off as a loss and your stupidity an move on

Because when I did reach out every few months, he gave me what seemed like genuine reasons as to why my box was delayed, and was convincing about it being “next in line” and “worth the wait.”

But go ahead and keep calling me “stupid” for trying to be a good person and give this young businessman the benefit-of-the-doubt, because THAT’S helpful and totally necessary… 🙄

I emailed Justin yesterday as he requested. He informed me that he doesn’t have PayPal anymore (my original method of paying the deposit). I suggested cash or a check in the mail, or Venmo. He denied all of those, and instead offered “Walmart-Walmart” but I honestly don’t even know what that is. I replied asking if he could just mail me a check as it seems to be the most simple and professional option, and he stopped responding. I reached out again this morning, and this was the response I received…

Sounds like he’s trying to do money transfer through Walmart. Like a currency exchange type situation.

To the OP, take the Wamart refund (cash) and move on, don't worry about blasting him after that...
