bad transaction (JDM swap) with Japan2LA

I don't think Japan2LA is a scammer, but he's a shitty buisnessman.
I had a transaction go way south with him many years back (about 2-3, before it started happening more frequently) and no one believed me. I posted a thread in the feedback forum detailing my very negative experience and I was practically run out of town by all the people that rushed to defend him. He actually physically THREATENED me in one PM and still everyone defended him.
It looks like things have only gotten worse recently. I've seen a lot more of these threads lately which doesn't surprise me one bit. Human behavior doesn't exist in isolation so I'm not surprised to see it happening now.
Good luck with your transaction markus, however I think you should ship the engine back to him on good faith. After the exposure that this thread has gotten I doubt he'll simply take your money and run, though it might take him a while to actually get it back to you.

Here is a link to the thread:
https://www.rx7club.com/questions-about-members-102/japan2la-terrible-seller-liar-616811/
You actually started 2 threads back then, one which has been totally removed..
Here is a direct quote from what i posted 3.5 years ago in that thread...
"This transaction went south during my 3.5 week Vendor status issue with the owners of this site (remember I was banned/blocked). He posted a GGBB thread about me during that time. I was blocked banned from the site for almost a month, my hands where tied. As soon as he posted the GGBG thread, I issued him a full refund thru PAYPAL and offered him the parts for free on a condition. The condition was to go back to the thread he started and STATE the fact that I had already issued a full refund, and in a show of good faith, I was going to give him the $650.00 worth of parts for free. I was still banned and was not able to answer/respond to his thread. SEVERAL other members who know me VERY well in that thread told him what was going on, ( VENDOR BAN) and confirmed that I do not run off with peoples money like he was saying I did.
He never respond to my offer, he never had to file a claim with PAYPAL, he had his FULL refund and there WAS a deal on the table for him to get the stuff..$650.00 worth of parts for free.. All he had to do was post that he had his money back and that the GGBG thread was a FALSE alarm. HE DID NOTHING! and did not even respond to my emails I sent DIRECTLY to his personal email address.
After the VENDOR issue was resolved and I was back on the site, he PMed me and emailed me asking IF my offer was still on the table for the free parts.. I simply said no........ "
You got a full refund
You could have had all of the stuff you wanted for free..
3 years later you are still pissed @ me??
Everytime there is a thread in this section with regards to me, you come in and post this same story...
Talk about holding a grudge...
And NOW, you make reference to me in another thread where someone says they got screwed on a pair of rotor housings...
Here is the link:
https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...light=Japan2la
I am not involved with any transactions currently with TEXFCTURBOII
IS a 3.5 year old grudge with me your excuse for doing this?
This is SUPER childish of you, if the answer is yes...

I am only going to say one thing about this whole deal with wompa....and that is this:
Pay attention to how your transaction with wompa started off.....he waited three weeks without any news from you about his order. When he contacted you, you told him "sorry, I forgot". This is a concern that I and other moderators have repeatedly brought to your attention, and yet you still have never responded to this problem. It is simply not acceptable for you to keep buyers waiting like that. And one thing I WILL agree on with wompa is that we are starting to see this more and more often. Other than that, as I said before, I do not see anything besides you threatening him in PM that you did wrong. There was a legitimate reason for the second issue regarding him not hearing back from you again, and you resolved the matter as soon as you were able. I also want to note this too--once you told him "I forgot" and promised to have them sent out in 2 days, I dont understand why his order still wasnt shipped. You didnt need to have access to the forum to take his parts to the shipping place and send them out. The only thing that should have been held up there was getting him the tracking info, since you were banned at the time and could not post. But like I said, this has become a more frequent trend that we have tried to discuss with you on more than one occasion.....it needs to improve.
Now, in the interest of trying to get THIS thread resolved, from this point on, NO ONE is to post in this thread except for japan2la, markusparkus, and members of the moderating staff. If anyone else just cannot help themselves, they will be considered for the next RX7Club vacation recipient. There is already an issue going on here that isnt over three years old. Wompa, with respect to you, you got your refund....now, please step back and let this buyer get his.
Japan2LA sold me some parts for my rebuild (1 housing and 2 rotors). I sent the payment immediately after we agreed upon the pricing. After the parts didn't show up for 3 weeks, I sent him a PM asking him where my parts were. He said that he 'forgot', and would ship them out UPS 2-day and send me the tracking number. 2 days later I had no parts and no tracking number and he wasn't responding to his PMs, so I decided to file a complaint with Paypal.

What part of this did you not understand??
It was only posted immediately before you felt the need to chime in. If you cannot follow a basic request like this, you shouldnt be posting in here to begin with.

I will send the 100% complete longblock with the engine harness, ecu and
oil cooler with the lines. Japan2LA will take 24 hours after receipt to verify that he received the above and then deposit $1590 in my paypal account at the end of that 24 hours.
Barring unforseen circumstances, the engine will depart by Friday, August 6th at the latest.
I'm awaiting the shipping paperwork from Japan2LA.

Pretty sure he's referring to Brian 
Just read all 4 pages...wow.
I've dealt with Brian only once for a strut bar and had no problems.
Sucks to see these things happen. I personally have gone through a few and at times it seems as though everyone is right but it all comes down to good communication and just coming to an agreement. Why try to squeeze every last penny and tarnish our name?
Best of luck Brian and Marcus
