Thanks, I appreciate it. I'm pretty doubtful he'll be a Man, because I gave him a week to work it out before posting this. Now since my number is blocked, I know he's got his tail between his legs...
Take care,
Wes

For anyone out there if you are buying a trans that supposedly came from us please contact us first, There are id numbers we place on the cased stamped in that will verify wether a trans is ours or not. Who it was sold to and when etc.
I am sorry this gentleman did not get what he thought he was .
Unfortunatley he is not the first and will likley not be the last unless everyone takes a moment and contacts me about it. I will be happy to verify the trans origin for anyone.
Thanks
Frank

Yes I learned the expensive way. He would've probably just send pics of a different trans anyway...

I just would not ever buy something so expensive, that you can't afford to get ripped-off, over the net, unless you do it in person. Even then, the insides could be damaged.

Good luck to all

Money orders. I took pics of mine, filled out, next to the envelope with his name on them, thankfully.

i bought a cam, valve springs, and pushrods from this guy a couple weeks ago and there was a broke valve spring in the bag when i got it. i called him and told him about it and he got right on the phone with TSP and got me another valve spring coming asap. ive talked to him on the phone a couple of times and he seemed like a straight up dude. sorry to hear about your situation man hope everything works out for ya.

He "sounded" good when I talked to him, but actions speak louder than words, for sure. Glad to hear you got your situation resolved.

I bought a "pristine" cam on ebay once, only to find when it arrived it had 2 lobes completely thrashed. Lesson learned. I now have a $200 paper weight.
So sorry to hear you lost that much money. Man that sucks.
