Default Re: Opinions wanted...Would you pay?

Guys I want to drop in for a second, I have been trading online for a few years now, and what seem's to be the norm is you eat shipping back if you don't like the item, the seller has man'ed up and ate shipping on his end, It don't make it right, I will second the guy may be right on the edge of not being honest, be thankful he didn't tell you to go pound sand,eating a hundo has less after bite then a grand.

I had a similar experience on some supposedly perfect recovered seats, all I can add is make sure you ask very clear questions and get crystal clear answers and make sure you are looking at all the pictures required to make a high end purchase,

Bud.

The same thing happened to me. I posted that I was looking for parts on Team Camaro and this guy contacted me. Sent me photos, told me of the quality of his parts and even had his own website. When I finally got the parts (2 bumpers and misc.) I thought were a good deal, they were crap! I ended up using them, but they're barely presentable even on my kid's daily driver. In fact I even ended up ordering a repo front bumper from Ricks because the one I bought used, although straight, would need to be rechromed. (It looks like both bumpers got too close to someone who was sandblasting.)

I didn't try getting restitution and the guy stopped replying to my e-mails the day I received my parts. I'm treating it as a lesson learned, but I'm curious if it my be the same guy.
