Heres a little info i got

Any chance an Admin can check the IP address source for the two posters C5racer and Slowdawn. Not sure if you all have that access, but I've seen a few instances of people pulling that crap with multiple identities and then the admin proves it's from the same computer, great stuff.

The first post ask if anyone has bought form this guy and I have and it worked out.I joined LS1 to get some knowledge and parts for my car and truck thought this was the place to post for a good seller and so far I have counted 14 members posted and I"m the only one that has bought anything and has not got burned. I live outside of St.Louis this guy lives in Placentia Ca.You can check with creederado in the truck section he just shipped me a set of taillights for my truck. I can"t blame you for being afraid to buy I was too but took the risk I needed the parts blindluck I think, that I didn"t get burned well after this no more WU"s to anybody you have made me see the light but he never burned me.

Go ahead and talk ***** For your info I have done some very smooth transactions and they have been quick and efficient. Go ahead and talk ****. Why don't you call my number on the forum since my cell is obviously posted. If you are going to say something why don't you call me and tell me personally rather than hiding on the forums.
I expect to hear my phone ringing fairly soon.

I received a call today from this fellow's ex-employer (he was fired on Friday) for allegedly stealing parts and selling them on various outlets (including here on LS1Tech). If anyone here has received parts from Shane Hogbin aka Sean Light aka c5racer aka partyboy1 aka c54me please get in contact with me.

Ok, I have to step in here and defend Shane. I just dealed with him last week on a street twin assembly for my LT1. I needed it in a hurry and I western unioned Shane the money and he sent the clutch out to me and got it to me before the weekend. I through it in on the weekend and everything turned out just great. He communicated everything to me and was great to deal with. camarokid is also a really good friend of mine and he got all of his parts and everything turned out fantastic.
He called me last week about this post and I just found it. So, now I am in here to put in a good word for the man.
