Thanks! Yeah, well this guy is a dbag, simple as that. I paid him w/ a personal check so he wouldnt have to pay all the PayPal fees. But I have screen shots of all the e-mails,check, and posts so if I need to take action I will be good to go.

He is by far the worst person I have dealt with. On eBay all but one transaction has been wonderful. I pay this moron directly and it takes almost 2 months to get my stuff b/c he was waiting on stuff which in reality he really wasn't b/c its getting shipped separately.

I plan on writing a FULL review on G5A and if I get banned IDC. I will e-mail as many people as I can about my crap experience and let them know EVERY SINGLE ITEM on g5a is overpriced.

My theory is that for his products such as the lip that Cam ordered is that Kevin (the moron) really buys them off eBay and then will repackage it and ship it to the customer of his store. That way he makes MASSIVE $$$ and is why it takes so long to receive stuff.

I've been lucky. I don't buy from ebay anymore, i can usually find the same part from an online store for the same price, it just takes longer.

If i buy on the forum, it's only from people that are regulars. I took a gamble with the wheels, but the guy turned out to be really honest.

^ See, I think that I am correct about my theory. It makes perfect sense.

Oh yeah he def doesn't stock all these parts, and he def isnt a retailer for the companies, once people order stuff he just buys it from a retailer then get it, repackages it and ships it out. I have believed that for a while.

I pretty much only buy stuff on eBay. Ive only had one bad experience out of a ton of transactions and thats not bad considering that amount of dishonest people. However, the feedback system is FTW! I figured that since this guy has his own shop and whatnot it would be smooth, maybe take awhile but be smooth. False.

However, my worst transaction was probably with this woman looking guy who I bought a 5th gen center console trim piece from......man that guy is a fairy.

^Very true! As long as its not a fake. Modified mag did a report on that and found a ton of stuff they bought for the articles were fake, but look almost identical. Some were just as good as the brand stuff and others were garbage.

and im jk btw brandon! lol
