So i won some stock taillights on ebay on like march 12 and i have yet to get them. I filed with paypal and ebay about sent the guy e-mails and he hasn't sent any back. So i'm thinking I lost buy $25 for those tail lights. Now I'm starting to think i got ripped off from a guy on DSM Tuners. I mean i bought somthing on there thinking you have to be on there so long and have a rep for it and what not. I paid for some Injectors on march 23rd and still have got anything. I sent him a PM asking if it has been sent or what not. He hasn't responed yet. The only reason why I think I'm getting ripped off is because the guy has 0 posts and is a proven member. Now i have like 40 on there and 2 rep points and i'm still a noob on there. This is the guy so if you know him or somthing let me know! http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/member.php?u=45502
This sucks I have never done this to anyone why does this bullshit have to happen to me.. But maybe I'm over reacting but I paid $200 for those injectors. Hopefully I'm just over reacting and everything well get here tomorrow. Yea right
Ok yea sorry about this rant but it just sucks.

I don't trust anyone on dsmtuners. It is like buying things off the old dsmtrader when it was up and running. That is a steal on teh 2g tranny and t-case though.

The classifieds on Tuners are a joke. They tried to make them more trustworthy when implementing the Proven member system but I do not believe it has made any difference. Have you PM'd a Tuners moderator or Ludacris about your issues?

A little OT but dsmtrader.com is set to launch on the 7th again.

I think I am going to get most of what I need for my car from you guys and SBR.

Minus the SBR branded products, between Elite, DB, & LSE, you should be able to get anything that you would get from SBR.

SBR is a joke, ask DoughtCom.

Buying local is the way to go. Thing is the money you spend extra is usually just taxes and a very small mark up since shops don't make much on parts these days unless the retail price can be held close to MSRP due to demand, like the HKS cams at times. Plus you can deal with people face to face and you support local shops.

This is another reason why we have the system we do on the classifieds and why we are always looking for ways to protect the buyer and seller as best we can.

I bought a few used things off the trader before(nothing big $$$). I've sold more than I bought. I did that before things really started to get bad in the area of trust. You're better off to just buy new from a local place. All it takes is one very bad transaction to make every penny you saved by buying used, seem worthless. Half the time you gotta worry about just plain buying someone elses junk. People pawn off all sorts of crap.

Yea I wish i would have just got them here now. It seemed like a good deal. I Pm'd a mod too. To see if they can do anything.
