I did get my items but the fact still remains that he did deceive me on the shipping date on the 2nd deal and his communication was poor at best but he did finally delivered so I will not be outing him.

I get a lot of junk from the swap shop including another buy I made last week that also came in today. Not the fault of the seller other than he should have know 3 of the items were total junk. I should have asked a couple more questions on this deal but he should have taken 1 part off and offered that for sale and scraped the rest, it was cheap but I payed to much for what I got. To boot it was the wrong size and now I have buyers remorse.
im glad you got your items.i hope i never wait for 30 days to recieve paid for items,but if i do i will warn other members who the person is that could not find the time to ship my item.two things i hate,a thief and a liar.when i sell an item as soon as the funds are cleared the item gets shipped and i expect no less.

My grandfather always said he's rather be around a thief than to be around a liar. Said you can keep your eye on a thief.

Sometimes I just don't at all.

I am dealing with a frustrating situation with a major dealer but it is a small time thing. So it is not worth blasting the company over really as i know as a whole they are great. Sometimes you have to stand back and ask is it worth it really in the big picture.

not sure what your situation is but this thread is about paid for parts not getting shipped in a realistic time,or not at all.

Brian,

Did Mark Smith ever make things right on that boat he screwed you on? Oh wait, silly question!

People like Mark deserve to be found wearing cement shoes.

The Mark Smith experience was an eye opener that still is not resolved. The boat is in somebody else's hands waiting on the final paperwork. I am getting out of boating for a while and selling everything off. Doing some RVing with the family, riding my Harley and might put a race car together. When I come back in the game I will be heading to Douglas Mi.
