Bad experience with Pinston

I paid pinston for a pair of fenders on the 17th, I asked for a tracking number 3 times so far and have not gotten one. I was responded to by him once and was told Id have a tracking number next day, its been 4 days and still waiting. I started a claim with paypal and still no response from him!!!!!

f1bluerx7 was a nice guy, I paid again on the 17th. No tracking number, got a pm yesterday that it went out yesterday due to personal problems. I asked for a tracking number by end of day or I will start a paypal claim. I believe him, just want proof, thats not so hard!

I'd appreciate it if you could remove my name from the title of this post. Sorry again for the delay.

total bullshit, check my paypal teamafx79, check my paypal, I wouldnt do that. You told me your gf's mom sends them out, you cant do it yourself, and cant provide a tracking number which is all Ive asked for. You wont do it, you cant even tell me the day they shipped. Its been 2 weeks and the ups ground from Ill. to mass is 4 days. If they show you can keep your money, but I havent seen them yet. what a joke, defend it by telling me you dont have a tracking number and to go f**k myself. Money is tight everywhere, you dont just take money and be a dick, with no proof you even shipped them, and you havent responded to paypal, email, or pm's in a week, what am I supposed to think.

First off, this language doesnt belong here. If you cannot conduct business maturely, then please conduct your business elsewhere.

Next, you were asked for a tracking number, and you told him that he would have one the next day. Yet you provided none, and you dont provide one now. You gotta be smoking crack if you think we are going to fall for this post--you can bet your last dollar that if someone bought fenders off of me, and I legitimately sent them out, I would be chasing THEM down for my money. You claim the guy scammed you? FINE--then post the tracking information showing that he received the fenders, or stop making such accusations here! UPS Ground was mentioned--they give you a tracking number when you ship that way. If you actually did send these out, you would have that number and this would be solved in an instant.

So, please post the tracking number. Until then, you dont have anything else that needs to be said here.

Hmm...this is not good. I've met this member a couple times in person and have had no issues dealing with him. Has he been on the forum lately? I also need to talk to him regarding a previous transaction so I'll relay the information within this post.

opened a paypal dispute for a full refund if no title is given. At this point, I'd rather give the car back and be out $500 for shipping than deal with craziness.

UGH. I guess this will be the first time I have ever seen a negative trader score. Get to it guys.
If you guys have his name and paypal maybe you should post so people know not to buy from him.

WOO HOO!

Got the title. The previous owner Jerome sent it to me with a bill of sale. So now we're all good. Gonna go to the DMV soon and make it all official or something. Got lucky on this one.

Can I ask you something: Did he not disclose the "issue" with the title prior to the sale? I looked at this car for myself as it was local and didn't purchase because there were too many issues involved. I'm just wondering whether he properly disclosed information to you?

Hey take it easy mefarri. That was pretty unnecessary. It wasnt an attack on you man. Riz was just asking you a question.

Because he told me that information so I rightfully assumed he would also tell you. I guess I was wrong.


And please don't tell me what I should do . I didn't make the mistake of buying this car. I was just trying to help, but oh well. Good luck to you. I'll stay out of your threads.
