****Don't refund this guy a penny. Tell him you will refund his money completely once you get the wheels back. He ships them back ON HIS DIME. Paypal is very clear on the fact that the buyer has to pay to ship items back if they want a refund. Ask me how I know. He's taking advantage of you.

I usually dont get involved in the disputes, but I do cruise through here to see the names, that way if I ever do have a "deal" come up, the name will ring a bell.....
Anyways, reading through this post, I got fucked like this on another board about 6 months ago. Almost the SAME scenario, instead of wheels it was a transmission. Long and short of it is, its ******* bullshit!!!! If your not happy, send them back, and go buy a different set of wheels. Your TRYING to nit-pick and whine/complain about something that is nothing to try and SCAM some of your money back, and in the long run get a BETTER deal for YOU- Its ****** BULLSHIT!!!!!!
Just this morning, I was going through the classifieds, and came across this post:
https://ls1tech.com/forums/parts-cla...uild-sale.html
While I was reading through it, I saw that you got all PISSY because you felt that he was asking to much for HIS motor. "well at 3500 for the shortblock it will never sell you can dam near get new 408's from sponcers" Post #18 in the thread above. It gets better though........ after the OP says, well thats the price, YOU get really whiney, and decide to show us your AWESOME math skills!!!!! Here is the quote "you wanted 4500 so minus the 1100 for the heads and 800 for the intake thats 2600 why not sell it for 2500? that makes no sence to me unless your really not trying to part it out and if thats the case just tell people your not gonna part it out PERIOD" That would be post #20 in the same ad. The best post of the whole thread though is #25, here it is "lol sounds like a real (honest) seller someone should jump on this deal asap"
Here's an idea- maybe he saw this thread and DIDNT WANNA ****** DEAL WITH YA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know I wouldnt- just for the simple fact that you are ******* this guy around on wheels, I could just imagine if you bought a used motor from someone............. Ive havent been screwed by anyone on here, and after about $8,000 in buyin/sellin from here, I think for the most part, the guys/gals on here are good, legit, stand up people. You sir, are the reason why though, everytime I buy/sell on a board I have that worry in the back of my mind............. and its ****** sad that it has to be that way.

thanks for the support guys. unfortunately, this guy did get my refund even though i tried to stop the payment after i found out he screwed me over.
hopefully this thread gives people a heads up about him and can at the least, warn people of what they may be getting into if they decide to do business with this guy.

no that would be retarded why would i spend 100-150 shipping the wheels back when he described them as mint no rash etc next time check the wheels before you ship them take pics of them close up so you have proof
and ya this is the second time i bought a set of perfect wheels with curbrash so it will be the last set of used wheels i ever buy

[QUOTE=FadedSS;13139822]yes, i filed a claim because you violated our agreement and told me to "enjoy the negative feedback" after we agreed to leave postive feedback for eachother. in the end, you still recieved the refund and screwed me over. now i have to deal with the paypal dispute you opened and my paypal rep has suffered...
haha... please believe that if he was local i would have showed up at his door step to settle this "dispute". I recieved $411 for the wheels and tires when it was all said and done.
LOL if this was local the sale never would have happened i would have seen the rash and the flat spot on the front tire with chords showing and said ill give you 500 for them

All i'm saying Bro is have some class. I know you can be anyone you want to be on the internet but do you really want to be perceived as a Douche Bag on here? I'm not retarded thanks for asking and neither are the other forum members who concur what you did was childish, negative, and unfair. I guess you "won" in the end cause you managed to tarnish a tech members trader raiting and paypal account raiting as well as have him foot the bill to send you a full set of wheels cross country both ways no less (standing ovation)
It's disgusting... Good fortune in the near future Kid....

"and ya this is the second time i bought a set of perfect wheels with curbrash so it will be the last set of used wheels i ever buy"
So let me guess, its the second set of wheels that you got "almost free", huh?????
"no that would be retarded why would i spend 100-150 shipping the wheels back when there's nothing wrong with the wheels, I can just manipulate the system and file a dispute and get most of my money back and keep the wheels........ Fixed for ya-
Really kinda surprised that there was no response to my post in here this morning................seeing how he has excuses/reasons for everything else
