I got ripped off on ebay for a set of glow gauges. Oh well, tough luck for me.

Does any one recommend any good ebay sellers for gauges for a 93 LE auto?

I got my reverse indiglo's from procarparts.com...but I think they are history now. Try autodynamic.com They are good....stay away from Ebay for stuff like that

I haven't received any sort of communication from him. In the auction it says that an automatic email should have been sent out at the end of the auction but I never received it. After a week and 5 emails I'm fed up and filing a dispute via ebay and PayPal. This shit makes my blood boil.

I was just about to pick some up myself from ebay and I was worried about having the exact problems that you are talking about.

Maybe I'll stop being lazy and actually search for other reputable sites... eh who am I kidding I'm lazy and wil probably go back to ebay and come back here and gripe if I get the shaft

just check the sellers rating, iv ordered 2 sets of guages with no problems on ebay so far

I've dealt with Procarparts often with no problems.
They are still around.

Brujo, who was the Ebay Seller you dealt with?

prnc_chrmng, that Camry's looking good!

I did. He seemed alright. He had a few negative feedbacks but then again, who doesn't?

He's has 28 negatives in the past month. That's way more than a few.

That's almost one every day within a 30 day period.

Rule of thumb, deal with sellers who average a 98% rating or better.
Also if you have the time, read a few negatives to get a better idea.

Makotoautotrends is a seller I've dealt with several times.
Racingdimension is also reputable, I've dealt with him twice with no problems.

Both have a 98% or better.

I would stay on jax_racing to get this resolved, unless you like getting screwed out of your money...

if you paid thru paypal dont worry. If he didn't respond to the emails they just take the money back and give it back to ya.

I used "autobots2" and gauges cost me like 15$ shipped

really cool cat great shipping too

Brujo · 02-02-2005, 08:35 PM

The guy finally emailed me today. He didn't give reason as to why he didn't send them out or email. At this point I don't care. I am a n00b at eBay so this is a learning experience. Hence. i didn't know about the rule of thumb of 98%.

Hopefully he will send them out soon and I won't have to take matters further.

***prnc_chrmng*** · 02-02-2005, 08:59 PM

at least thats a bit of good news...as long as he sends them out
