I don't know Bob but if you get to return the carb you are now trying to sell, he seems like a pretty reasonable fellow. He gauranteed it to be real, so sure there is some exposure and liability. It is his gauruntee, so good luck trying to influence his policy. At the end of the day I would want the most correct example for what I was expecting, but in your situation a refund seems to be ideal. I'm glad things appear to be on the right path for you.

I also hope it works out for you Bill.

What I don't understand is how someone sells something, finds out it's not what the customer was told it was, THEN, the customer has to pay to ship it back!!!

I just never understood that concept. If you buy something and don't like it.....that's different but to find out that it's not as it was represented to be is just wrong.

I agree with you on that Kurt. Bob should send a call tag for the carb. No ifs, ands, or buts. That would be the stand up way to handle it. Period.

Maybe someone should send him a link to this thread and wake him up. He might just want to issue the call tag and save his reputation. In these days of the internet one cannot afford a bad rap as it spreads too quickly around the net. $50 is a far cry from what the lost business could cost him.

Unfortunately he like many others can learn the hard way. My "Yenko buddies" have helped to make my business a success and in exchange I try and take care of them. Just ask Eric what his business has done with the help of us Yenko people.

Competition Carbs is very short sighted - for $50.00 they get a black eye. I had a small problem with a carb that Eric did for me - he took care of it with lightening speed at his expense (including shipping both ways). Works perfectly now.

I can't imagine this is the first time this has happened to him. I'm sure others are standing by the side lines and keep them mouths shut.

I let him know multiple times that carbs he had listed on Ebay were restamped and got the same reply stating the carbs come in as cores and they can't be responsible for the history of them. Eventually they sold to unknowing buyers. It is bad news any way you look at it.

I personally would put a thread up on every forum out there about this.
