Bad Seller/Buyer warning from US lude forums

not sure what forum name he's goes under but I sold him a bodykit, and as part exchange I bought some injectors from him.

My kit arrived with him very quickly.

My injectors never arrived (not his fault as he had a legit US tracking number) but we're not sure if they even left the country according to the tracking number. I asked him to contact the US postal, which after a while he rang once, but after I spoke to multiple UK postal and delivery people to try and find if they arrived here, he refused to help any more or give a refund and has now since ignored me, even through multiple attempts to contact him nicely, even through a US friend of his here.

Sorry to hear that Drax. Has he been suitably abused on the US forums since then? :lol:

Be patient,

6 months ago i bought some parts on ebay.com, according to the seller and the usps tracking code he shipped it on the next day.

I received the package 70 days later......thanks to german customs

USPS tracking works only as long tha package is in the US, after it leaves the US it can no longer be tracked

Apparently the service US side for USPS is appalling and pretty much in turmoil. Then when things cross over the water all tracking ceases and very rarely picks up again UK side.

As Kemp says, don't give up just yet.

Just realised Kemp said my first paragraph as well :facepalm:
