Bad ebay deal.

Post by Smoke&Mirrors »

So I thought I got a score on ebay. The items described were (all "NIB") a Mazda RX-7 body kit, 2 tire kits, 2 2.6 Motors, and a tube of oil. After having to contact the seller about whether she shipped the item or not, it arrived. The body kit had the mazda and a silver celica - which I now have 3 of. No spoilers at all (does anyone have a spare? I'll buy it. Seriously). One of the motors was the 2.6 and one is the blue 1.0. The tire sets have obviously been opened and used. They are all out of sorts. Obviously every item has been opened and repackaged. I mean, I got it all cheap, but that doesn't mean I deserve lower quality. Just kinda frustrating. :o


P.S. Sorry for the rant. :? And I really will buy a spoiler from ya: Mazda, Supra, or Celica.

No spoiler, but I have an idea. Maybe you should post the sellers name so no one else here has the same problem. I think we may have had a bad ebay thread but I'm too tired and lazy too look for it right now.

Well I got a hold of the lady today by email and she said that they were her ex-husband's and that she has had them for years. She was just going off of what the packaging said and that she would have labeled them correctly if she knew. She apologized and offered a refund. Not too bad a deal then. Free body, 1.0 and 2.6 motor, and tire kits!

Hmmm, so she's selling the ex's micro stuff off. Now I'm trying to remember who has been divorced around here, but it don't matter, he was one of us and now she's selling his shit. I say we kill her.

Then do we return his stuff or split it up?

Sounds like it worked out though, glad to hear it.

If it were ore of us, I doubt there'd have been any stock bodies!
