Default Evil Bay Sucks!

Beginning of the month, saw a 14x7 XT wheel that I need to complete a set. Had a buy "buy it now" for $250. Seller was 409fever or a Travis Lear from Hancock IA. 98.7 % positive. Sent out the money next day plus shipping. No wheel, won't answer his phone and won't return calls. What a dick!
No more evil bay for me. I'll only buy from sYc members from now on.
Peter

Pete, I'm not defending the guy (don't know him) but I've sold a few things to Canada before and to keep the costs down, I used the slow route through the P.O. which can take 6-8 weeks.
Also, whenever I pay for something, I always spend the extra $.60 for delivery confirmation. That way at least I know if the seller got it or not. Good luck in contacting him...

I complained about a non shipping seller across the country and sure enough the sellers local police dept did get involved, they even called and emailed for statement and paperwork on the sale. Good Luck.

you might network on a couple forums as well, someone may live close enough to swing by and ask nicely where the rim is.
