Default I got screwed on Ebay

Hey guys,

Bought a Crower turbo cam for my z6 off ebay. Guy said it was ok, but it got here this week. BIG chunk missing out of the lobe, and the cam gear that cam with it is warped and all kinds of fucked up. I wanna drive to Georgia to beat im with it. He was all primed to answer my emails during the auction, but now he's ignoring me. I've even called him 14 times, no reply. This blows.

Did you do the insurance thing? (usually like $2.50 extra or so) If so..you can have him kicked off E-bay. The insurance says that he has to send you another one or give you your money back.

YEAH!!! go kick his ***! I got screwed too but from another website. I bought a turbo from some guy and he won't answer back after I had paid for it. I posted a while back ago about this. If i lived on the East coast near the guy that screwed me over... i'll hunt his *** down

I always check the feedback and make sure the seller hasn't ripped anybody off before. I hate that ----. Hunt that ****** down and beat him with the cam and shove the gear up his ***. What a piece of ----. It really sucks because I am sure he hasn't left you feedback yet, and when you leave him the feedback he deserves he will turn around and leave you unfair negative feedback. I can't stand the way ebay works. I have only been ripped off once by some little bastard across the country. He ripped off like 15 people before they finaly shut him down. I watched his auctions and emailed everybody who was stupid enough to bid on his auctions with all that negative feedback and warned them about what he does. One stupid *** I warned told me "Oh thanks allot, I won't bid on his item" and went ahead and bid on it anyways and ended up emailing me back a month later asking what he should do because the little punk never sent anything. Buyer beware!!
