Alright, so here it goes. I purchased a motor from Dabeztz28 around the 15th of February and it took him quite a while to get shipping. He cited the shipper at fault because he kept pushing back the pickup date. I know if I was the seller, I would gone with a more reliable shipper after the first couple of missed pickup days . Anyways, I was assured quite a few times that the motor would be shipped on a certain day and delivered within 36 hours (AZ to CA). Well after a few weeks of pushbacks it was finally "shipped," and the seller gave me the drivers phone number but no tracking number. Another couple weeks go by and I'm getting pretty mad. I've been planning my schedule around the promised delivery dates (getting off work, school, driving to the city and waiting at the delivery destination all day, ect) but still not received it. Every time i called Dabeztz28 he told me that he would call the shipper and call me right back, but then he would never call me back. I don't know if he is not taking this seriously, but I cant be jerked around for two months. It is not my job to call the shipper and hound him to deliver my motor. I don't know what kind of illegitimate company he chose, but it sounds like one guy who can't keep his truck in together. The lack of communication is very irritating. I want my money back and i don't trust this seller.

Oh, I don't have a link to the sale thread because I bought it through ebay, but here's the link to that:

Am I wrong in being mad?

Shipper just told me that he cannot afford the gas to make the trip, and can probably get the motor to me in 5 days. How ridiculous is this? I mentioned to him the 2 1/2 hour drive I've been making every time he set a date I would receive it and he shut up (I don't live at the shipping destination). How is this my fault? Do people not care about time anymore?

Tell him you want a partial refund because of that bs, or at least leave him negative feedback here and on ebay. Sorry to hear about all the crap and good luck to you!

 

I filed a dispute with paypal, and the seller said that he would return my shipping funds if I would release the claim. He returned my shipping cost, but now I cannot escalate the case and have my full funds returned. This is turning into a nightmare.

 

Well here we go.

First of all i do apologize for the incovinience of having to wait so long for the engine. Theres not way of getting around that, the shipper is making me look bad. You have to understand i do not ahve control over the shipper! I have informed you on all his delays before pickup and after pickup! i have kept you informed everyday and aswered all your questions and call in a promtly manner. The Ittem was picked up almost 2 weeks ago, and yes the shipper satated it would not take that long. I reaserached the shipper before and he had perfect feedback so i made my decision based on that. As you can see on his feed back he started having trouble in the past 2 weeks with customer. Yes it sucks, but you have to understand that i have no control over his actions. I spoke to him and he said you would have you engine in 2 days max.

Recapt:

I have always kept good communication with you, asnwered or returned all your call within the same days.

I picked the shipper based on his good feedback which is what anyone would do, check his feed back here ... http://www.uship.com/profile/grizz767/ ... He has great feeback prior to pickup.

I felt bad for having you waiting so much, so i even looked for a pair of manifolds for you and send them with the engine. ANd even bout a cradle to send it/

AND I REFUNDED YOU THE ENTIRE SHIPPING AMOUNT, even though it was the shipper fault and not mine. But i understand that it reflects on me.

I already ate up all the shiiping charges, and i kept trying to resolve the shipping with the shipper. You now for a fact he has it and you have spoken with him,.

AGAIN SORRY, but i cant control the actions of other bussiness. Like i said, i reaserch the shipper before and made sure he had positive feedback. Just like any good seller here.

I have lost alot on this deal due to the shipper, having refund you the shippeing then using my profit to pay for it.

The shipper already stated He will have it in 2 days. Waiting too days will resolve everything. again sorry

Item was paid for on 26th of feb which makes it a month, which is definately to long. But you were aware that the shipper setup a pickup 1 and half after that. And the item has been out of my hands for 11 days. Yes it sucks to wait thats why i refunded you the money.

 

I jsut spoke to the shipper again, he said he had told you that he coulnt affor to go drop it off the go back for hi s pickup tommorow. Butif you waiting for tomoorow he canjust drive over.
