I purchased a set of taillights with center section from dsmawd350 on 03/10/2009 for $225.00 through paypal.
Money was cleared and posted to his account on 03/16/2009.
He shipped the two taillights via Fed Ex 1 week later. When the package arrived the center section was not in the box, just the two taillights. The taillights had been poorly packaged with just a thin layer of foam peanuts. The drivers side taillight was broken in shipping. I sent him a pm to see if he would issue a refund and file a claim with fed ex. He refused saying it was my responsibility to file the claim. He stated he did not ship the center section because "it wouldn't fit in the box" and "I woud not want it anyways because its faded".
I told him at that time I did want the center section as it was part of my purchase and ask that it be shipped. He is not responding to pms so I have to assume it has still not been sent.
It was my understanding that it is the sellers responsibility to file a claim if something is damaged in shipping. He has ignored my requests for a refund. I didn't look at his trader feedback prior to purchasing from him which was a mistake, looks like this isn't the first time someone has had a problem with him ignoring pms and items he shipped being damaged.
At least its only a $100.00 taillight im out, he is selling a $3000.00 turbo kit and I wanted to post this in hopes that no one pays him for a turbo and then doesn't get it because it "doesn't fit in the box"....
