    I would not buy from them. Especially due to their low feedback number.

    I took the chance from reliable.deal and they just left eBay, I still have not received the grill and not expecting the grill to come in, already contacted Ebay but I have to wait until I get the shit LEDs that they are sending out instead of the grill. Lesson learned.

    Reliable was also former Beileya, or something like that. I reported him and pushed eBay like crazy over what this clown was doing. Contact eBay and they will likely give you your money back as soon as you get your LEDs. At first they tried to make me wait for 72 hours to let him respond but I kept calling and escalated it so they closed my case in my favor and issued me a refund. They said they were doing this because of so many complaints. This was literally my second ever eBay purchase so I’m even more gunshy now, even with those protections in place I’m not a fan of how hard I had to push to get this resolved.

    If you waited, eBay would have given you the refund, immediately after the 72 hour deadline. You couldn’t wait 3 days?

    I just filed with eBay and got a refund within an hour. I think because of all these complaints, they are immediately refunding anyone who had purchased from these fraudsters. I have a so-called tracking number, probably for LED lights, but I have already moved on to order another.

    I received (from ebay) the following message: "We had to remove this listing from the site and you're not required to complete the transaction. If you've already sent payment, the sale should process as normal and you don't have anything to worry about. If you have any questions about delivery, please check tracking or contact your seller. If you run into any trouble along the way eBay is here to help. Please visit the Resolution Center to help resolve any problems you may encounter."

    I went to the Resolution Center and chose "Want a refund". Ebay is now saying they will have a decision by December 26th.

    Is this what everyone else here is doing in regards to getting the quick refunds?

    I got the same email but mine said Dec 25th. Then within an hour, eBay sent me another email and said the case was closed and they sent me a refund which will credit within 48 hours. I checked and already received the credit.


    Edit: actually 24 min later.

    Sucks that we had to go through all this, but am glad eBay does take care of their buyers.

    yeah so far no refund for me. I talked to eBay the other night and they did say the refund would take 24-48 hours to show in my account. So I guess I will be giving eBay a call again tonight to see what the hold up is. I keep seeing others saying they got a refund within afew hours or mins of talking to them. My guess is they automatically refund us after 72 hours anyways?

    I have received the grille with removable letters with double side tape from seller : motorfansclub-ch.

    The packaging was very good wrapped and no broken tabs.

    I've ask for the two part grille like other have received with screws but received this one instead.

    The quality is good. Look like the OEM but it feel cheap. But for that price this not surprising me.

    I had to use a dremel tool to sand out the parts of the grille that was attached to the mold because the letters was not completely flat when applied.

    I had trouble snapping the tabs, I had to use the dremel again because there was a gap at the top of the grille with the surrounding.

    I also break one of the tabs when clipping the grille into place.

    The final result is very satisfying for this price!

    I’m pretty happy with this purchase and my truck is now looking good!

    Grilles look good guys. I bought a real one early at $400 but may have done the same as you.

    Off topic but FYI:
    For some reason in the South East Region our Predator step bars look like NFabs or NFab knockoffs, not like the Predators sold in the rest of the country with the flat steps. So @RHelton10 don’t let them second guess your truck.
