as i have tried to warn people about in the for sale forum, danny goes posting pretty good prices on parts as he's parting out his car. so i ask him how much for his super 16g turbo and stock rims with new tyres. and he says $600 + $50-100 shipping. so i send him $100 because i know $50 shipping for all of that isn't reasonable. and so he stalls for a week or so, but sends me the turbo and gives me the tracking number. then he tells me there's a slight problem with shipping the rims and tyres, as he really didn't actually check on how much it would be to ship; instead he just guessed. shipping would be $100 more. so i say "ok, how much do you expect me to pay?" and he goes "i dunno." so i say "well, do you mind trying to find a cheaper way of shipping? maybe let the air out of the tyres so they're lighter and not box them. i had rims sent like that before, and they were only ~$25 each." no real response. "how about greyhound? i know they ship larger parts fairly cheaply." "like the busses?" "yeah." no response. so for the last two weeks i have been sending him messages asking "so, any progress? if not, mind telling me how much more to send to get the rims, or refunding me the $250 ($700 - $400 turbo - $50 shipping for the turbo?)" and now it's been over a month since i sent him the money, so i can't cancel the paypal payment. i didn't think it would be a problem, as again i received the turbo, which was the more expensive of the items. but still no response. and his paypal account has a complaint, but it's the similar sheot as when an uninsured motorist crashed into my ford escort. you can sue and the court will say "ok, pay him" but that really doesn't mean they will. so crap.
