Default dmtunc99 = dead beat buyer

said he wanted my parts. i was going to NC anyways to visit family. Drove the parts down so there were no shipping charges. now he says he doens't want them. so parts are 500 miles away and I can't even get my hands on them to ship them to some one else that wants them. what a crock of ****!!!!

Most people who deliver parts to people ask for a deposit to ensure they will be there to pick up and pay for the parts. Helps to ensure the buyer wont back out of the deal once you get there. Maybe next time consider doing the same.

There's a few details left out here. He asked for paypal payment weeks in advance because cash wasn't good enough for when I was to pick them up from his brother. After this he sent me a message telling me one of the shocks had been damaged. Then after a few days he tells me he has dropped the parts off with his family but accidentally forgot some, but luckily for me he offered to let me pay for shipping them down later! Unfortunately Foxrus maybe I just had bad luck with you, but I don't feel comfortable continuing a transaction that went the way ours did. Your actions and messages are pretty suspicious, sorry sport.
