So i got ripped off... Well i bought some headers off ebay and the pictures were of a tsp caty and coated pacesetter lt's.well i got the tsp y alright, but the headers... thats a different story. They were not coated, not coated w/ anything other then silver paint. As you can probably imagine i'm pretty pissed off. I'm not sure what to do at all. I already wrote him an email saying that if he doesn't contact me by 6pm tomorrow that i will take action (even tho i'm not sure what yet). any suggestions would help
sorry, just needed to vent a little

Some people I tell ya. Just speak the truth and tell what it is exactly. As for what to do, Send it all back to the F__KER for a full refund including shipping cost for the return. To hell with people like that. Just my opinion.
i hope you used a credit card otherwise you will be paying for the return shipping. i bought a ls6 block guy claimed was brand new no blems. yea right. paypal and ebay helped this guy screw me. i got my CC company to get me a refund sent it back COD. the guy told the shipping company it was crap throw it away. so he lost his block and i got all my money back and big headache to boot. F@CK ebay. oh and if you didnt know ebay owns paypal. so F@CK paypal too. good luck man.

It comes down to what was writen up on the item.. As everyone state, What did the EBay ad state ? Did you question it before you made a bid ?
If it is as the EBay ad said.. your screwed... if it is not.. then you might have a case.
Good luck

ive ebayed for years.....did he say how they were coated????and do you have the link to the auction ???please post if you do.....i buy alot of my ls1 stuff off ebay...mostly new stuff though....
yea there are some real ********* on ebay. I reported an auction to ebay the other day because i saw a title that said "LS6 intake" but it was really a LS2.
But, you can get good deals on ebay. I got a LS6 intake manifold w/ coolant lines brand new - still in SLP wrapping for $300 including shipping!!!

no i didnt ask if they were ceramic coated but heres the link
2 things made me just assume that they were coated one was the picture and the other was that he said he spent over 1000$ for this setup
i can see that i made a mistake and probably should have asked b4 i bid on them...but now i have a set of painted headers and need something to do w/ them

I can see where you would expect to receive coated headers, I would have too. He probably just painted them silver in order to make the buyer think he was getting coated headers. There's really nothing you can do since he didn't state that they were coated. Sorry for the luck
I hate to say it too, but I think that you are SOL. I have bought quite a bit of stuff off of ebay for my jap scrap, but not for my LS1. You really have to be carefull on ebay, I also see where you'd thinkn they were ceramic. good luck!
