i bought these tire from "reaperracer666" and when i got them today the one tire has a large gash in the sidewall that someone tride to hide by super glueing it closed..it is deep into the white fibers very unsafe....i ask him for FULL refund and he only wants to send me $245.00...and make me pay the $35 for shipping when i sent him $280.00...so when its all said and done i only get $210.00..why sould i take a $70.00 loss for his failure to disclose the truth.. i am an honest person that was looking for an honset deal and

 

that sux man!!!!!!! you shouldnt have to lose $70

 

File a Police Report if you have to..Theft by Deception.

 

I wasn't aware i could do that..... thanks.........im just glad
someone else didn't buy them and not notice the hole..they could have been killed if the tire were to blow out at high speed.....you know it wouldn't surprise me if he were to try and resell them again somewhere else once i send them back!!!

 

well paypal tells me they wont help me because they dont cover quality of parts....only some crap about shipping so im screwed unless me and him can come to an agreement.... anyone have any other suggestions

 

just got off the phone with paypal....tons of fun!!!!! and they told me that because the tires were not purchased on EBAY even if im in the right there is nothing they can do for me.......

 

did you pay with a credit card bro?

 

nope...right out of my checking account....FML!!!!

 

talk to us first before contacting paypal next time bro.. lol...
call paypal back
and speak to a supervisor.

 

Same thing happened to me on a set of cylinder heads, and I got the same help from PayPal... NONE

 

found out that "reaperracer666" has only had a pay-pal account since 2-1-2010......i was probably his first transaction.....lucky me

 

Called them again today..... still the same....SCREWED!!!!LOL

 

Go into your local bank branch and talk to a bank manager... they MIGHT be able to offer some kind of assistance.

 

tried that option as well...no one seems to be able to help me....

 

call the police in his hood and have them talk to him.... its illegal lets face the facts. sometimes just having an officer knock an talk scares the **** outa people

 

Step 1... find a new bank.....

What bank are you using by the way? I want to avoid them if I can just for that.

 

local credit union....LOL

 

he just finaly sent me a message.....can you belive the gull this guy has....wow...





"after all thats been said and done im willing to refund $125 for the one tire that you have with damage, even though i did not se that gash when it was on the rims after it came off the rims or when i packaged them. so if you want to do this at all send the tire and when i recieve it i will refund you $125.
$125 is figured by the ammount you paid for the tire minus the shipping paid to get both the tires to you.

this is as far as ill go since i dont know if I somehow missed this several times or cut while opening package or not the same tire altogether.

message me back if you accept this offer. if not im done.

also if you send the tire make sure you send it to where i have to sign for it so you know that its been recived"

Please forgive me cursing much, I HATE scammers.

As far as paypal, it's about time you guys STOP USING THAT ******* THING ALREADY, I put that in my signature since this site was created back in 1765.
Paypal is bullshit, not what it was before, paypal ripped me off $1200 and case is still in court, my thread was here about a year ago, long story, plus you guys all know that Ebay OWNS paypal now so don't ever use it UNLESS buying on ebay .I wouldn't use them anyway, they make MILLIONS of dollars daily but yet they won't help a fellow who was screwed $280 ******* bucks. They made their 9 bucks from this transaction already so they don't give a ****, don't waste your time calling them, stress is never good for your heart.

Maaaan I ******* hate scammers.

Now I have to say I'm very sorry you were ripped off like that brother, this is just pure rip off, he should be responsible for every penny including shipping. He must refund you in full and if he wants both of them back then he should pay for shipping them both, if he's got some brain (Well, I'm sure not much after selling them like that) he should only ask for one back and pay for it's shipping.

Now let's push it into a higher gear brother:

Put his info here, YES HIS ******* NAME, ******* NUMBER IF YOU HAVE IT AND HIS ******* ADDRESS. A girlfriend's name would be awesome too....

In my opinion he IS reading this thread, and ALREADY created a different screen name and who knows, maybe already selling other parts, so if you put his name here he will hesitate and hopefully start making some use of his soooo empty box, make it right for HIS sake and resolve this and move on. He will live with the loss, it's not like he's losing a thousand bucks, he gambled and took a chance selling them like that and he should be responsible his scam didn't work.

Sorry about all the trouble brother, let us know how it goes and if there's anything we can help you with.

Let us know how (If) it ends man.

Why haven't you done a negative feedback on him yet for his trader rating? Call the police man! Do you know his address? You can contact his local police and get the ball rolling.
