Seems to me that if he's allowed to post his "point of view" in a manner that attacks the integrity of someone then we should all be allowed to post our "point of view" of him...
I suppose that is too much "eye for an eye"
You can always ban me if it makes you feel more powerful...

about his ebay feedback he not the first or the last guy I will give a neg feedback
Thanks doc even if I prove him wrongs he still not going to do me right. Like I said he could keep the 25 I was just warring the member here but it look like they do not need my help they could judge him for them self
This guy did not visit the site in almost 4 years and would not answer email for the past 2 year what you want me to do.. It not about the 25 is the fact this guy lied to me.and i did the job right i pick up a new one
English is his second language and writers strike are not the best but I would go out of my way to help any one
Furthermore, my ebay feedback has but ONE blemish on it, going back to May 2000. Chiqui, spouting off more BS even after he got his money back.
http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAP...ab=AllFeedback
I have nothing to hide here.

I have a couple problems with this issue.
1). This if from over 2 years ago
2). Aluminum crush washers and only aluminum are to be used in this application. Aluminum is very soft and yields to torque. In order to get copper to seal correctly a lot more torque is required.
3). SE oil coolers are very prone to cracking when the wrong washers are used and excessive torque is needed to stop them from leaking. This excessive torque is what stresses the bungs and causes these issues.
As you can see the problem I am having is that even if the cooler is actually leaking at this point it can never be known if it was received that way because of the incorrect usage of copper sealing washers.
Chiquirx7,
If you have emails or a pm that states that he would refund you $124.00 and also that he stated that he would refund you that amount if you took it to the radiator shop and they stated it leaked. Then I would like to see them please. Please pm me if you can supply those documents.
Thank you,
Doc.

Wow... I remember this guy but I had forgotten how "special" he was.
I really hope he isn't a product of a U.S. school.
Cloud is a pretty awesome seller and even an awesome buyer...
This "special" person didn't even bother to try the $3 washers to "prove Cloud wrong" so I hope no one believes word one of what he speaks.
I haven't visited the site in almost 6 years, but when I saw this "special" message I had to put my two cents in.

This appears to be precisely about $25 otherwise it would not be brought up over and over and over again. I am sure everyone here has lost 25$ at some point or another.
THAT said, I do not condone transactions like that. That also being said
in your sig is a little extreme. Was the $25 a shipping fee. Becuase normally for any return shipping is NEVER refunded, because that is money out of pocket.
It seems that Cloud did not try and rip anyone off, and paypal clearly thought the matter closed and not that $24 mysteriously disappeared.
As well, you have not provided much evidence in the thread about anything other than quoting emails without copy/pasting them in. (or at least excerps)
And saying he is not the first or last person you will give negative feedback to has absolutely no bearing on this thread. He mentioned his ebay feedback as evidence he is a good seller. You make it sound like you are a pessimist on a rampage willing to give out bad feedback like its nobodys business.
Furthermore, the transaction was over 2 years ago and not on this forum. Sure it affects people here but they seem to like him as a buyer/seller, he is not a scammer it would appear. Scammers take your money. period. You got a product, you thought it was faulty when it seems there is a good possibility it was not. Disputed it with ebay/paypal, got 4/5ths of your money back (potentially lost shipping costs-details?) and then proceeded to bitch about it for 2 years. Come on.
Therefore in my opinion this thread should not exist on this forum. You gave him his bad feedback on ebay. Maybe he had a bad sale. Everyone does. It sucks, but from various people and feedback doesnt appear to be a scam artist.
I find it a little hard to deal with when all you (and somewhat cloud although he at least has proven he does have records of emails that could be sent to the mods) are allegations (photos dont work anymore).
Sorry for the long windedness.

If you don’t want to get rip off or scammed do not do Business with Cloud or stevie 1020

Seller told me he would refund me my money after it was test by a radiator shop so he ask me to take it to a radiator shop and fax him a copy or the receipt of the result. the radiator was pressure tested by a radiator shop and leak air out from stress cracks on the threaded. Just so you now am not cheap with any of my 3 Rx so I pick up a new one from Atkins Rotary for 475 you do not now me to say am cheap . The point here is this guy told me he would refund 124 and all I got back was 99 so he still owns me 25. this guy rip off he thought i forgot about him after 2 years
A radiator shop CANNOT tell you with any certainty if there are microscopic stress cracks in that thing. ALL THEY CAN TELL YOU is if it holds pressure or not. AND, since we know for a fact that you didnt change the washers on it, we DO know that THOSE were a definite source of a leak. A leak also means pressure loss. SO, here's what happened to this part.
you took it to the shop. They hooked it up while it still had the old washers on it. They then pressurized it, and to no one's surprise but yours, it didnt hold pressure. OF COURSE IT DIDNT--YOU DID NOT CHANGE THE WASHERS AS YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO.
Now, are you next going to try to tell me that this radiator shop x-rayed this part to see if it had cracks? If they cannot be seen with the naked eye, then they cannot tell you with any clue whatsoever that it has cracks. So get a clue and get the hell over this already. They tested a part with leaking, old, used crush washers, which is all but guaranteed to leak, and WOW, they found that it leaked pressure!!!
Thats like getting a flat tire, then wondering why it wont hold air...."I just dont understand it, I mean I took out the three nails that were stuck in it, why wont it inflate???"
Seriously, man, I tried to be as polite to you as I could stand, but you are bashing this guy because you decided that spending three dollars on a pair of washers was not necessary, despite being told that you need them. THAT IS NO ONE'S FAULT BUT YOURS. What you should do is simply be thankful that he chose to refund you anything--not that I think he shouldnt have but there are plenty of REAL scammers around these parts that would have simply told you to get bent, if they told you anything at all. STOP whining about this guy being a scammer, crook, thief, or whatever else youre gonna call him and give it a rest. He didnt scam you any more than I did, and I have never done business with you.
Thanks doc even if I prove him wrongs he still not going to do me right. Like I said he could keep the 25 I was just warring the member here but it look like they do not need my help they could judge him for them self

Where I come from, if you cannot prove an accusation like this, you dont make it. This far, the only thing you have done is insult a seller that, both on here and on ebay, has a perfect reputation, not one bad deal, until you decided not to put the proper new crush washers on the part before using it. Even after you were told this, you still didnt bother. So, you spent $475 on a new oil cooler? Why? You more than likely could have been done with spending $3 instead. You have insulted the hell out of him, without one shred of proof of any of your claims. You havent proved one claim about him, not one. So, again, either furnish proof here of the claims youre making or stop making the claims. And while youre at it, you can explain how he was communicating this "refund offer" to you while you now claim he was ignoring you.
Then, you post this:

I have delt with cloud numerous times over the past 5+ years, on multiple forums for many different types of parts, mostly mustang and rx7 parts. NEVER have i had anything near a bad experience or a shred of dishonesty. good seller, good guy.

I was thinking the same thing. It just doesnt match up with the way we have seen cloud type everything else.
oh, and when you send that email, would you please do so including the full header? That would be much appreciated.
