My Gt-40X mistake

[LightningWX]

A MODEL PIECE?!?!? BOy, I'd be so pissed!!!

That's like those yahoos selling "XBOX Boxes" for $300. It's just the box that the X-Box console came in.

Scam artists. You cannot say that the Xbox thing was anything else than hopeing someone would be stupid and buy a box thinking an Xbox is in it.

This isn't second page material yet. I wanna see steve get some restitution or I'm gonna look at everyone in IL with a evil eye.

Not trying to stick up for the kid or anything...But whats to say he didn't know.... It's possible the car could've ran. I have a set of GT40x's and granted the casting was terrible but who's to say it didn't come from the factory like that. Maybe he bought them from a reseller that had used them?? It's hard to say what resellers do with parts. They may test them on their own cars tweek them a little and then sell them to the consumer as new But I am not saying that this guy shouldn't have returned your emails. But I feel your pain. I bought a 91 Mustang Bumper cover for $125 and that is exactly what I got except it was a model peice....So atleast you got something you can use.

I think that deserves a trade back. Thats way too much of a misunderstanding for you to have to eat $125 for something thats not even a good paper weight.

It is all worked out. Finally contacted the person I bought them from and he has agreed to pay back some $ for the extra machining costs. I was being reasonable to him and he realizes this, maybe now he can live with his conscience now.
I picked the heads up today from the machine shop and am quite pleased. Check out the flow #'s
