Default Once again, Do not do business with MooleyZ28 AKA John Melamed

Well I'm having fun with this guy now. I bought a Hooker off road y - pipe from him... First it took two weeks to ship... No biggy, I can live with that. Then I get it yesterday, and its literally a peice of crap. The one end has been cut off, and the other side where the slip pipe goes is fine, but he didn't give me the slip pipe. It was obviously all rusted, because its been spray painted with grey primer. I heard back from him today, heres what he wrote.

i am at college... i didnt try and rip anyone off. I sold it for a friend and
he says it is sold as is. Sorry to hear this, I can try and talk some sense
into him. Ill get back to you around laborday cuz i wont beable to access any
e-mail for about 2 weeks. Sorry
So what should I do?

Well heres the latest correspondence from this clown. This is his response to me saying that I want a refund or I will ruin his name in sales on the board

Go ahead and ruin it. I sold a part I thought was fine for a friend. I sold you the part as is for a friend. I paid around 100 dollars to ship it out of the total 120 u sent my paypal account. so there for I will only pay you the 20 dollar difference and you can return my y pipe... Sorry but dont start saying your going to ruin my name on here. I did nothing wrong. Sorry and have a great day!
Now what should I do? I think he did do something wrong, and I'm out the money. Anyone else agree?

He shipped it to me in a 27" tv box. Smart eh...

So far I haven't heard back from him. I'm really fed up with this, I wanted to put on my headers this weekend, but so much for that.

I hate getting ripped off. In 6 years of doing business on the net, this is the second time. And I don't want to let it happen.

Oh really... Well he just cancelled my paypal money request. What a loser, I can't believe he would think that I would be dumb enough to notice that this thing is a peice of garbage. What do you have to say for yourself kid?

OK heres his last communication;

To be honest... Dont remove the bad posts. I dont care. I sold you a good part as is for a friend. You received the part and expect a refund... I will NOT be giving you a refund and I wont be dealing with this harrasment. Please quit contacting me. Thanks

with pictures you WILL get your money back from paypal, they always side with the purchaser, never ever the seller. Good Luck and you just saved me from buying gauges from this goon. Feedback works !!!
