screwed by guy on TC.com, sold me some shot shocks.

this

you bought a pair of used shocks for 120, what were you expecting? if he didnt post a guarantee then he doesnt really owe you anything. but if he knew these shocks were useless thats when he is ripping you off.

we need to know how bad the shocks are to really tell

 

Thats all the proof you need to show he did sell you gargbage. U had to go thru all that BS to find out ur self. I think a full refund is what u deserve. And i think u should post their name so that i dont buy from them in the future.

 

the guy i got them from got them used too, so he got screwed as well but i think its only fair i get half my money back....

 

it doesn't matter. if the guy knew they were shot then he shouldn't have sold them to someone else. Especially on a truck forum where word will get out.

Just because he got screwed doesn't mean it gives him the right to screw and rip someone else off just to collect back some of the money that he spent on them. And if he said that Leeper would have rebuilt them for free why didn't he just take care of it himself. Because he knew they were fucked and that they wouldn't rebuild them.

 

X2

I totally agree!

 

Now let us know who did it please. I am always looking on the B/S/T section and I'd feel more comfortable knowing who to avoid on it.

 

X3, exactly what I was thinking.

 

So will you tell us or not?

 

waiting?

 

sure as hell sounds like it! oh man the guy totally knew they were junk! you got RIPPED off!!!

 

My level of respect for that guy has just gone down dramatically.

who the hell was it.

 

Sounds like the cat is out of the bag now!

I take it you saw this post after you already bought the shocks. I don't know, I tend to agree with Milesdoublecab that you are buying as is product, and especially for 120 bucks, that price is too good to be true. Granted I would be pissed.

 

Half back seems fair to me if only to protect his rep. I've sold something before that the buyer claimed was shot, but in that case it was working when it went out the door, and it was working when the buyer tried it out on pickup (it was a camera lens). But I still split the difference, and gave him half back because bad karma blows.

 

Douche. If you were sold bad shocks, you should have taken it up with the seller.

If you broke them yourself, you man up and deal with it. Do not sell them off again as though they're working. Disgusting.

 

I would have to say I've only dealt with Two people on this Forum and Both are Very Honest and Above Board, However they are selling their own items and not used Stuff. I've heard too many Horror stories about E-Bay and some other sights. If I'm buying I buy from a Company on Line or Local.

 

How did you pay? Cash? Paypal? You deserve 100%. He can't claim ignorance. Take him on Judge Judy! HAHA

If Paypal, file a dispute and you will get your money back.
