Thumbs down Kidapache Rip Off......

So i bought some Carbs (four 1050 dominators and flame arrestors from Kidapache) sent him the money and he was supposed to send my package. Well i got the carbs no problem but no flame arrestors, i called him about the shipping numbers to see if i can track down the missing box. He tells me the carbs were in 2 boxes and the flame arrestors were in another box "taped" to one of the boxes with the carbs. Right off the start im thinking why would UPS tape a box to another box? I look at the packaging and the weights were the same on both boxes. If for some reason they did tape it to the other box, the weights would be different... But NOPE they are EXACTLY the same weight and there is NO sign What so ever of any tape being on the other boxes.... This Guy must think people are stupid to try and pull a fast one on them and think they are going to believe that ****ty ass story.. Ive tried Calling, Texting, Emailing, Pm'ing.....With NO Response....Funny how people are johnny on the spot when they are trying to take your money....but once they have it.....GONE!!!

Never dealt with him. Tried buying some ignition boxes but got a bad feeling and backed out. Hope he makes good...

Were the shipping labels done online? If so he could very well have entered the weights online and left them the same and he could have taped one box to another. Now if the labels are handwritten or printed off from ups then they would have weighed them.

I always use online shipping and I am sure I have "estimated" weights off a few times.

Now the lack of response is a different story.
