People ripping people off...
So I'm looking through ebay, and what do I find?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2447350609
Yes, looks very familiar.. only Black B20 short block I know of that has been Pinned in our area.. I sold this to a local guy for 40 bucks. Sold it cheap because it was worthless to me.
Now if you look at the auction. it does not say anything about the cracked sleeves, the fact the block has been pinned and if you were to rebuild it, or sleeve it you would have to grind the pins out, and patch up the block. And it does not have EVERYTHING, its missing a oil pressure sender & oil pump.
305 dollars seems a bit high for a blown b20?.. so I look at bid history and I see that Josh Ross (turboaccord) has bid the living ---- out of it to jack it up..
I just really feel bad for the guy that bought that, and shows how anyone on ebay will bid on anything.

Did you see his ebay user rating 75%.
and on that same auction this is the feedback left by the buyer.
"i won auctoin then he wouldnt sell it to me he sold it to someonelse after i won"
He sold him a busted block, and did not sell because He wanted more $$$$.

I can't say it enough feedback,feedback. If someone has 100+ and has 98 percent or higher they usually give nice complete descriptions. It's just how it is. Most people with low feedback and horrible rating go on to sell broken stuff like blown up b20's sucks but that's just how it is.

The seller's name is punkyourass187 and he has shitty feedback so that guy is a moron if he buys from them. I do agree it's still fucked up that they sold the block, but at least they sold it on eBay and not here.
