A lot of people sell things in the for sale section as well as ebay for more than you can get them for new if you know where to shop.

Alot of us learn the hard way. Always reasearch anything you want to purchase, even from the well know shops. Another scam that hits home is the great purchase price and 10X normal shipping cost on Ebay purchases.

maybe you can file a complaint through paypal, if he chooses not to resolve the problem himself, but you should definately take action, dont let this settle, you got ripped like 100 bucks, thats 100 bacon cheeseburgers.

correct me if im wrong, but he DID advertise the wrong parts... he advertised an MSD optispark and MSD blaster coil, and the guy recieved a cap and rotor.

half of us posting in here know the guy personally, and he is definately not the most honest trust worthy person, which is why he will not associate with us, we caught him lying about his car in a for sale ad, he also lied about a driveshaft he was selling which he broke and posted it as "perfect condition"

I seen that as well. Somehow I wasnt thinking about the opti as the entire opti. Man its been a long time since I had an lt1.

Seller is definatly a douche.

I edited my upper post!
