Same comments on Garys GTO goodies, not a crook or anything but stuff is always not as nice as described but not lousy enough to be fraudulent, buyer beware I guess. He is also very rude, needs to get some lovin' it sounds like.

'loc8tor' got me once too. I won a bid on a tri-power with carbs and linkage. He claims to be from somewhere in south central PA or just over the border in MD. I was going to Summer Carlisle Auto Show 2006 and asked if he would meet me somewhere to save on shipping. He agreed and I drove the whole way to Shippensburg to meet him. When he opened his minivan and presented the tri-power it was bare and the wrong year and had no carbs or anything. He said he must have switched mine with a different tri-power he sent to a guy in New York. I gave him the benefit of the doubt because I wanted the tri-power with carbs. He said he would contact the guy in NY and make the switch. After several weeks (5-6) and several calls and emails I gave up on getting the tri-power and asked for a refund. He did actually refund my money right away through PayPal but I will not deal with him again. He seemed to be trying to do too many "deals" at one time. His minivan was full of stuff and he said he operated some airport taxi service too. Sounds like he has his hands in too many cookie jars at the same time.
Hope you have some luck getting your bumper or the money Helge. |

I am another one bitten by garysgtogoodies. This is the second time my package was "lost in the mail". Yet the other package the part was supposed to be in arrived. After arguing over it I got my first negative feedback. He is to be avoided

Stay away from 800watt. They sell shop tools, machine tooling and measuring equipment. All poor quality stuff, even for China. 1226 negatives and counting. Even the people that give 'em positives complain about poor shipping and communication. If you have a problem, tough! Their contact number is an answering machine. They never respond to email or phone messages.

First transaction was a digital caliper, 96% positive FB... cool! It showed up with a dead battery but they sent a spare with it. Still all was cool, it seemed to work well enough for my reloading bench. The second transaction, the junk #2 Morse Taper collets finally showed up about the same time the caliper went down. Not cool! They hit me with a negative FB, which was just the shipping number. I didn't complain that it took several weeks to get to me, just that they wouldn't respond to calls or email and their products were junk. |

If the guy heard about it locally and didn't contact you through ebay, then I'm wrong, feel free to correct me. Otherwise, it appears you were trying to avoid ebay's fees after you got free advertising. I always have a question in the back of my mind when I see that statement and am hesitant to bid because of the appearance of impropriety on the part of the seller. Rich |

Granted, I shouldn't have said free advertising, but it does seem to be a way to avoid what you've agreed to pay ebay. IF, you end the auction early, had a low reserve and the selling price was higher than what was bid on ebay. If the price wasn't higher, I don't see any advantage to selling it outside of the bidding process.
If I'm wrong, I apologize. I've seen a lot of items I was interested in that ended early when the price was way too low. Rich |

Not sure why I'm wasting my time with this but perhaps you can read Ebay Motors policy here --> http://pages.ebay.com/help/sell/motorfees.html and show me where "I avoided to pay ebay". You pay an insertion fee, and a transaction fee, regardless if you let the auction run (with bids) or end it early.

I see where some of you guys are coming from. But if i list a part or car on ebay and someone within driving distance is willing to pay what i want for it and i don't have to ship or transport it, then i'm going to do it to. Just my .02 though. Damian.

I read the policy. Did you read what I wrote? The Transaction Services Fee isn't charged if your reserve price isn't met. Had you met your reserve price when you ended the auction or not? Was the fee you paid lower than it would have been if you completed the auction or not. That's all I'm saying. If you didn't pay less when you ended it off-line then everythings fine, I'm wrong and I apologize. That's as simple as I can make it.

Yes, that is what I am saying, it was not a reserve auction. Started out at the price I was happy with. Both EBay and I were happy.................

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
