POSSIBLY RIPPED OFF BY HONDA-TECH MEMBER HELP!
It's almost been 3 weeks since this Tommy Kwong guy has taken my $190us. I seen an auction on ebay he had for a manifold and in the ebay auction said to email cause he had a wastegate and a couple other things for sale. I emailed him about his tial 35mm wastegate and we worked out a deal for $190us shipped.
He said he sent it out Monday the 8th. Still no wastegate yet. I'm going to file a paypal complaint soon. It still might come this week and I might be jumping the gun, but if it turns out that I don't get any wastegate, is there anyone that lives near him or knows him?
He has pretty good ebay feedback: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...tem=2463703601
He emailed me and sent me the insurance number (which is no good to me) and I emailed him 4 times asking for the real tracking number and he never replied back, so i'm starting to get worried.
Here's his profile on honda-tech: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerouser?c...e&id=999336691
Incase this wastegate doesn't show up and he never replies back to me, does anyone live near Seattle Washington 98144?
This is the last major piece I need to finishing my turbo project.
Thanks,
Stan

Re:POSSIBLY RIPPED OFF BY HONDA-TECH MEMBER HELP!
hmmmmmm........ that's odd, every time i've shipped to canada, they won't let me put insurance on things. something is fishy about that if he said he put insurance on it. go ahead and at least file the pay pal complaint, if it comes, you can dismiss the complaint, but if it doesn't come, at least you'll get the ball rolling with it. not to mention, once he sees you've filed a complaint, it may motivate him to 'really' ship it if he hasn't. this happened to my friend with a turbo (actually the turbo i have now, i bought it from him), the guy was dicking around and never responding and what not, then, it got here a week after he filed the pay pal complaint

I am about 2 hours south of Seattle, but I know there are quite a few HMT members up in that area. If you never get the wastegate maybe at the next HMT BBQ/Meet we will have to go on a field trip.

im not sure what the deal is with shipping to canada, but im in MA, and nothing has ever taken longer then 8 days TOTAL. i think the max on a ground shipping is 5 or 6 business days. when i get a tracking number, everything always works out fine, even if an item gets replaced. If theres no tracking number, i either would have asked for the money, or waited 14 days, and then asked for the money. i hate dirtbags.

I am going to wait 14 business days, which would be this Friday. I got a blow off valve and an oil temperature gauge shipped to me in the same size box, and it only took 5 business days from California. The wastegate should have been here by now, but i'll continue to wait.
