[tonysrt]

Maybe tell us who. Somebody here may have a past experience with him, also not too favaorible.

 

[Katfish]

Have you sent money?

If it's the guy you responded to with the carburetor for sale I can say this, he doesn't seem to contribute anything to the forum and only uses it to sell his stuff.

@BOBSCARS is on now.

 

[Rishi]

some of us (myself included) can be offended quite easily, so i recommend being gentle and respectful. the deal isn’t a deal until the money is sent.

 

[1971 Gran Coupe]

I have gotten a lot of support from members, but still waiting on the seller to actually step up and make this right. He did say to call him, and I did, but he did not answer but did send a text a sometime later.

Let us know how this all ends up turning out. It could be valuable for others possibly dealing with that seller in the future.

When I purchase items from an online sale. I use a credit card to recover the funds if the seller misrepresent or I don't receive the item. The credit card company will look at you dispute and return you funds. I will use Pay pal but my credit card is linked to it for that reason. Using you Debit card from your checking account or other. The banks are not as concerned about your fund as they are of there's. Go figure! The only thing is you have a window to file a claim. I think Pay Pal is 45 days. Credit card can be a 90 days, Check the policy for your financial institution. A lot of time the seller might play out the dead line because they know that. Then your at a loss.

Having read the rule above. It is in their power [FEBO] to delete the individual account. On 3 accounts 1 We reserve the right to delete any ad or post for any reason or no reason, without notice or explanation. They might be waiting for the seller to respond in ample time. 2 Ads may NOT be placed by businesses. That would have to be considered what is a business. 3 No Bumping of ads. No repeated posting of same ad for one week. I do think I did see that. That would have to be fact checked. Nothing saying that he could not register as an other user. They might have a check for that.
The bad thing is actions like this could make it bad for the rest of us. What would the result from the actors actions. So whom ever person or persons cease and desist. For those parties will be SOL and not be selling here. This is how I see it. If you don't like it leave.

The seller has started a refund, but not final as this post. Communication has been terrible from the seller. I will continue to update as things progress or digress.

I am following up with an update. I finally received funds on September 14th. The seller did make if right and then some. The communication has been very poor, but he finally did come through. Thanks for all the support and recommendations. I even contacted Joey about this, and his insight was beneficial. Again, thanks for everyone's support! Enjoy the rest of your day.
