FoxyRoadster Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 I ordered a cheap chinacharger on the 4th.. The seller sent the package to the wrong address and when I got the package it was just an envelope with 4 bolts in it.. Seems he did it to a few people, which really sucks cause I wanted this turbo for my miata. Just beware this seller on ebay: http://myworld.ebay.com/ewtla_12 Quote Link to comment

HRH Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Are you sure the person at the wrong address didn't take the turbo? And have you contacted the seller about it? Quote Link to comment
FoxyRoadster Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Are you sure the person at the wrong address didn't take the turbo? And have you contacted the seller about it? Yes, and very sure due to the fact there isn't an address at the one they gave. Plus about 5 other people left feedback with the same problem.. I am the only one out 200 bucks, rest of them are on sub 100 dollar items. I guess I did get fucked on valentines day, just not in the way I wanted. :P Quote Link to comment

Bleach Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 I've seen this happen before but not usually with someone that has +900 feedback. They usually just buy 10-12 items to get some rep then screw people on fake laptop computers or whatever else seems like a good deal at $500 each. Thank goodness eBay uses only PayPal now. I wonder if the seller will actually get away with any money. Maybe he canceled his credit card/bank account two days ago before people got their scrap metal so PayPal has no way to pull money back out! oh wait, that's more of the business model...

FoxyRoadster Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 I've gotta wait tell the 23rd for them to respond and then I may get my money if they don't. I'd kinda figure a little red flag should pop up if 5+ people all give negative feedback and file reports in within 2 days of each other. Quote Link to comment
dennis Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 One time I had bought something off of ebay and it turns out the guy died before his auction ended. Luckily the money was still in his paypal account and they reversed the transaction after so many days. I didnt find out till later when a family member contacted me about it. Quote Link to comment
FoxyRoadster Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Posted a WTB ad for a TD05 16G, if any of you guys know of one let me know. I'm kinda wanting a turbo so I can enjoy the Miata engine at its full potential. Quote Link to comment
