I had few bad experience my self. I hope that you guys will keep an eyes on my listing. I did not sell much around here mostly on PWC since more peoples know me there and ebay with just under 1000' feedback and 3 neg. I hope you trust this rating. most of my customer don't even leave feedback here for me.
 
I think everything should come with a return policy. If you don't like it then send it back and get the money refunded. Each party is out the cost of shipping one way that's it and no one gets screwed. I don't sell much here but when I do (I don't print it in the ad but) if you had a problem let me know and I will give your money back. That is the way it should be.

I haven't been burned as of yet nor will I burn someone else,my shipping is not the fastest but it will get there,in the condition described,useable and intact.

I bought a 650 head off wedo and it came promptly just as desribed. Good deal! :bigok:

now if the stealer (local dealer, not wedo) with my $ would give me my head gasket I will run it! :burnout:

got two orders from louie, and stuff was clean! :bigok: more good deals

I thought the point of the negative thread was to name the bums who screwed you??? :chairshot:

in the nicest way of course, so the rest of the "community" knows :wink:

are you talking to me?

man, no idea, I dont think so though?

My memory is BAD though.

the last buyer made a very valid offer to correct and make it right, and I am having a freind look at the item to see if its worth fixing, or if I should return it for a refund.

either way....

you NEVER know, until you have done the deal, and the package is at your doorstep..

speaking of which, I am waiting on a B pipe from some dude in NJ.

:spankme:


didnt I send you a prop or something? or maybe it was someone else

I try to be an exception. I'd hate to screw someone. I figure I'm better off talking down my item and showing 20 pictures to get a few dollars less for it than to talk it up and show no pictures to screw someone with my POS for a few dollars more.

I don't know how people can be such dicks. If someone gave me their money and the package didn't go out as soon as physically possible, I'd loose sleep.

I have to be honest. The transactions I have completed with board members always went flawlessly, both buying and selling.

Transactions with some of the big name companies leave something to be desired...i.e. blowsion, hydroturf, riva.

I would rather buy a part from a board member any day of the week. Maybe I've just been lucky.

Vumad, and Marz,

keep in mind, ive had those experiences here too, ive been conducting business here for a while, it was generally good. It seems to me to be tapering towards something else.

Ill be more careful in the future.

This is another reason to support my request for details concerning For Sale Postings (pictures, location, price, etc). I'm sorry to hear things haven't been working out for you. I've had fairly decent luck... knock on wood.

after bad experiences on ebay i stick to the boards. Never send someone your money who hasn't been on the boards a while and never send money to anyone who only posts in the for sale. I have bought and sold here and had exceptional mileage with everyone pwc related. Except for fools on couchs, silly nuts. :Banane09:

exactly.. Your odds of getting screwed are alot less if the person has been arround for a while and has a decent reputation.. I usualy look at how many posts a person has, how long they have been arround... and sometimes ill look at old posts theyve made just to make sure they have a good reputation.. even still.. theres always that chance.

the only issue with the PW50 was the fact that it shocked me while riding it, but that was my fault.

:icon16:

i've always had great transactions with things i've gotten from mouthfulloflake.....not so sure he can say the same about me though.......but sounds like the PW is lined out......

Speak up ,don't kiss azz
I guess I've been lucky so far but everyone I've bought from has been good and one thing I've learned is to describe it accurately and then if the way you described it than they don't have a beef .

I just sold a pump on Ebay and described it as having gouges where the bearings go not sure if this is useable and it still sold so as long as they know what they are getting than your good .

the price should also reflect the condition of the item .A pump minus the shaft and impeller with gouges where the bearings go sold for $40 .

Just a follow up.

I got the B pipe from the guy in NJ.

SUPER nice guy, total stranger, never even heard of him, but he kept in touch, pipe shipped when he said it would, and it is in GREAT shape, and it was a BARGAIN!

so, I guess we take the bad with the good , hit and miss, roll the dice, flip the coin, tease the bull, whatever.
 
Hmmm...I've done probably 450+ transactions on various sites over the past year..alot of buying and selling and only had maybe 3 negative transactions. All of them were me buying..not from me selling. If I have junk, I list it as that and hope someone can still make use out of it and its price accordingly.

You have to cover your bases...make sure you will be protected through paypal, and if not use a credit card. I deal with people I dont know and will probably never meet every day...chance you take I guess. If not you might as well pick up your local paper and look in the classifieds...sort of a thing of the past though.
