DaoNhatHai ripped me off!
 

I needed S5 signals for my S4-S5 conversion a while back. I posted a WTB, and DaoNhatHai contacted me, saying he had some and would ship from ON to BC.

We agreed on a price of $31 shipped, I sent via paypal, and recieved the item about a week later. Opened the box... NO LENSES ON THEM! WTF! So I contacted him again, saying what the hell where are my lenses, he said i never said i needed them, and that they would be an extra $17 to ship over to me. I begrudgingly agreed, and sent the money. Time went by, and the lenses never showed up. Contact with DaoNhatHai eventually ended up in him ignoring me despite me not being a jackass. It's been a few months, but I'm not letting him get away with this. I'm pissed. I'm gonna copy and past ALL the PM's here:

Additionally, I can ship with insurance for an extra $6.
-----------------------------------------------
chwkrx7, 11-02-10, 01:04 AM
OK, I'll see if I can figure this out, never used Paypal before lol. So $31? I guess you'll need my address?

chwkrx7, 11-04-10, 10:22 AM
Money has been sent They do include wiring right? If not, no biggie.

And go Canucks! Haha... it's not too often that I meet someone from ON that cheers for them though!
---------------------------------------------
DaoNhatHai, 11-04-10, 10:24 AM
I will send them out today, tomorrow at the latest, they have the wiring with connectors on them. I grew up in Vancouver on the corner of Broadway and Kingsgate, used to play street hockey at the local tennis court there sporting a vintage Linden jersey that was too big for me all the time. I'm a canuck fan at heart aha.

Mind updating my trader score? It's right beneath my user name to the left.
------------------------------------------
chwkrx7, 11-05-10, 08:25 PM
Done :)
-----------------------------------------

*******************
Around this time, I got banned for a week for bashing someones car, so I used another account, chwkrx7_2, to contact DaoNhatHai
*******************

-----------------------------------------
chwkrx7_2, 11-16-10, 04:49 PM
Hey man :) It's chwkrx7, but that account is banned till the 21st lol.

The s5 signals showed up at my door yesterday :)

... They're kinda useless without lenses though! :( Not too happy.

Dirk
-----------------------------------------
DaoNhatHai, 11-16-10, 07:33 PM
You only asked for the signal lights, not the lenses.
-----------------------------------------
chwkrx7_2, 11-16-10, 07:54 PM
They're part of the signals!

I'm doing an S5 conversion on an S4. Of course I don't have lenses lying around!

Dirk
-----------------------------------------
DaoNhatHai, 11-16-10, 07:59 PM
No, they're separable pieces. I don't know what your plans with the car are and can't just assume I know what you want. The lenses are $10 + shipping if you want them.
-----------------------------------------
chwkrx7_2, 11-16-10, 08:05 PM
Hmm ok. Well if you can find out what shipping would be that would be great. I won't be able to find them locally.

Dirk
----------------------------------------
DaoNhatHai, 11-16-10, 09:59 PM
Shipping is $7
-----------------------------------------
chwkrx7_2, 11-16-10, 09:59 PM
Alrighty, I'll paypal you in the AM

Dirk

Hey, do you still have the s5 turn signal lenses? $17? Sorry for taking so long to get back to you...

Dirk
-----------------------------------------
DaoNhatHai, 11-30-10, 11:27 PM
Yes I do.
-----------------------------------------
chwkrx7, 12-01-10, 08:34 AM
OK, I just sent $17 via paypal to **********@hotmail.com.

************

There you have it. DaoNhatHai, the ball is now in your court.

A+ seller for all the parts i bought off him, everything worked perfectly, good communication and fixed any problems that have occurred. he is a busy person, still no excuse for being a few months late.

we will just have to wait and see what he says.

dude just call up ray @ malloy and get a pair of new ones, they're like 10-15 bux a piece for new ones , hardly a fortune, besides new ones will actually be CLEAR as opposed to YELLOWED like the used ones!!!

I know, it's only 17 bucks. But still.

I've bought lots off of Hai and have only had one issue. When we had an issue, he was very quick to resolve it to make me a happy buyer. I know he has been saying he is preparing to move soon, so it's possible the guy is just busy; I wouldn't get all bent out of shape for the amount of money you're talking about here.

I hate to say it but I've also had issues with DaoNhatHai...

I paid him $70 for two dash vents, a bat tray, and some speakers on 4-12-11. He was very good with communication and shipping. Also provided me with a tracking number. The package came about a week and a half later, it was a box that was just a little bigger than a standard sized shoe box. It had about 4 blue paper towels in it (to serve as packing peanuts maybe?), 4 broken speakers, two broken dash vents, and a cracked battery tray. I literally paid $70 for nothing...
I sent him an email saying his packaging was junk and he sent me all broken parts, no response. I gave him negative feedback on his trader score, still not a word from him. Oh well, I learned my lesson not to buy from him.
