    mud flaps are warped? put them in the sun. they will return back to normal shape.

    mud flaps were dirty? thus the name "MUD" flaps. at least they weren't covered in mud right? you want brand new, no road grime, then go buy new ones at the dealer.

    OP is a joke.

    Seller never offered for them to be returned or refunded. And why should I have to clean and reform/fix products I bought?

    Seller's actions over 2 months:
    -mailed a week after purchase ("couldn't find the proper box for them to fit")
    -sent greasy, warped flaps (box still wasn't proper size and his "brother didn't clean them")
    -no dome light provided
    -didn't send "goodie" package (twice, per his claims)

    I'm holding him to his word. If seller didn't intend to do what he said, he shouldn't have said those numerous things. PayPal wouldn't be involved if he followed through on his commitments.

    I have no toleration for being misled or lied to.

    So in your opinion it is:

    NOT ACCEPTABLE
    - to receive mud flaps that were not cleaned for you
    - out of shape due to box not being the correct size

    IS ACCEPTABLE
    - to receive items, not quite as described but are in fact the items you agreed on
    - NOT pay for said items and not return them

    Sounds like he is about to get shafted by you, not the other way around. You kicked up a pretty big fuss for someone who seems more than willing to rip off another member.

    Agreed, Mike is a pretty stand up guy...shit, I've got like 2 boxes of goodies from him because I spent so much money with him, I will F***ing send you one of those boxes if you stop going on and on about this lol.

    Its already been said, but I see you are still complaining about it...but you got dirty mudflaps...They will LITERALLY be the exact same after a day of driving around. So unless you plan on getting on your hands and knees to clean them every few hours, that's not even something to complain about.

    They were slightly warped...oh no...its plastic, put them on the truck, I guarantee they'll conform back to OE shape within a week.

    Mike promises FREE stuff because his life got in the way of a PERSONAL sale. So you put him on blast as a vendor because the FREE stuff he promised you hasn't shown up.

    Now you have asked for a Paypal refund, and have no plan on returning the items?

    I guess OP thinks that 2 wrongs will make this right?

    FYI OP, if you went through all of this effort to blast me and my business over something so trivial I wouldn't be responding to you either....and certainly wouldn't be sending you free stuff to make it right at this point.

    And if you get your money back through pay pal and don't send back the mud flaps then you have no room to stand here on your soap box and preach about Mike's business practices and liars. Carry on though, I'm pretty sure nobody is listening.

    What's it like to live in a glass house?

    Update:
    -Over the weekend I finally received the the dome light that I was to receive as part of the original deal. As well as additional lights for the tail lamps, I believe.

    All is well. PayPal claim cancelled. Thank you Mike / AVEC. Wish you well. Take care
