I guess he wanted to justify the return somehow? I forgot to mention that he wanted me to send his money back before he even returned the carburetor. Asked me multiple times to do so. Probably so I wouldn't have any recourse once I found out his scam that was in play. It's unfortunate that a scammer like this has the balls to try and pull something like this off.

Ah, that's where the scam was. At least you got paid already. If not, then it would sound like a good reason for a road trip. Good luck.

wow! reminds me of a Holley carburetor (66-67 Chevelle IIRC) I sold out of Hemmings in the mid 70's to some guy in TN

It was the 1st (and LAST) time someone asked for COD delivery

it was refused and I learned an expensive life lesson, cash talks, bs (and free trips) walks

He later told me he &quot;didn't have enough money&quot; to pay UPS ... duh, why did you &quot;buy&quot; it in the 1st place?

it seems like that area is ripe with scammers

Subscribed. I don't want to lose those names that are known to be bad buyers.

What a scumbag. Is this the same guy in Humboldt TN who restamps blocks?

Wow, thanks for the memory jolt. I guess I can use this against him with eBay. Looks like another one of his user names is cnjr107 which is also private feedback.
