Hmmm, well here's what I posted... just thought it'd be interested. Kind of funny even though I got ripped off

I also specifically wanted him to send me a set of Screws for these in the deal.

Well, jump ahead 4 Weeks later, because that's how long it took him to ship them out only a couple states away... One of them is in bad condition with a chunk missing from the bottom and is cracked. Somehow there's also red overspray... On top of that, he DOESN'T send me the screws and simply says "I didn't have them" YOU FUGGIN *******

I honestly don't really care because these were only $30, but it's the seller's ethics that I'm concerned about. I ask him for a reasonable refund and he gives me a bunch of BS of him being a power seller on ebay and never sells trash.


THEN, this is what he had to say:
That first one you posted a pic of IS NOT the one I sent, you are trying to pull a switch and that's not cool at all!! I knew asians were cheap, but damn dude. And I don't recall any paint over spray, but at this point I don't trust anything you are saying. Just return them so I can do what I need to do. I have far greater things to worry about than $30, I made more than that just sitting here typing this. I hope you like getting pulled over!!
LOL. Yeah, I'm probably not going to get anything back for buying this garbage but whatever. I just want everyone to know that Zoom2Zoom is NOT someone you want to buy from. If he can rip people off cheap trim pieces, he can rip people off more expensive items too!!

The asian remark is definately uncalled for. Only bitches say things like that over the internet.
