Can someone give me an email or something to get hold of the moderator. I currently was jipped over headlights from a user on here by the name of Racer98.. Paypal account
[email protected] We did a transaction for the stock zenki head lights and corner lights. If he re sold these I would like to know. I am going to be filing a complaint and involving my bank and just want to let everyone to know to stay away from him and avoid buying parts of any sort from him. I need an admin though to help me settle this issue so I can get my money back please. I have all the proof of the email he sent me and it all matches what I sent.
Thank you and hope I hear from someone soon!

The moderators arent here to babysit you and Zilvia isnt responsible for any transaction that take place here.
Leave him a review, use iTrader, File paypal claim or whatever, move on.

Its more for you all to help you in the near future if you purchase from this guy. But IDK if he got scared or what happened he just sent me a message saying he had me mixed up with a different guy. So i assume he is going to send the lights now, but we will see. Its been 2 weeks since i sent payment. And I have already filed the complaint with paypal.

He's a reputable seller on here with good feedback. I've done business with him for a long time and I've never known him to do anybody wrong.

His feedback score of 97 against your feedback of 2.
I'm in no way taking sides but myself and a bunch of other people think that he's a legit person. He bought my shocks/spring one afternoon & paypal'd me the payment the same day.

Give me a little bit of time. I've never dealt with him, but he seems like he does sell a lot of stuff and he probably did just have you confused with another guy.
If he's owning up to it then give him a chance to make things right. It has been only two weeks.
Good luck

I agree with Racer98 being around here forever, and being well respected, but just thought there needs to be better communication here on both sides.

Yes my trader rating is low but that is cause I don't ask people to leave feed back on mentor every transaction I do. Most stuff I just buy brand new off frsport or another site that would give me an insane rating. And yes I am trying to give him the benefit of the doubt if he did mistaken me with someone else it was just a pretty offensive message he left me and my impulse action was to just let everyone know to be weary of him, but I believe we are resolving the issue. I checked his rating before I did the transaction and thought he was a great seller also. So for any miss leading I may have caused I apologize but if it happened to one of you I'm pretty sure you would of done the same thing to help your fellow 240 owners to be ware or I would hope you would to help from further instances. But like I said I'm hoping his transaction still goes through and I receive the items. Thank you for anyone that helped me with information I really appreciate it.

OP, seems like you waited 2 weeks.
Just a bit of advice for you (and anybody reading actually): whenever you make a transaction via online-- try to get 2 or more ways to contact the seller. Whether it's a cell phone number and/or an email. Most people don't check back on Zilvia for a while because we have lives outside of the forum.

People are really going a little to far with this thread haha. And I did have his number but accidentally deleted it out of my contact history. So your comment can be left to yourself only about lives outside the forums. I have barely any posts on here. Maybe one of the least. Also positive I got more of a life then you being in the Air Force. Sorry people on here love there cars and enjoy looking at others projects and learning more from others. Buying things and selling things. Sorry you probably got trashy 240 that is a rust bucket not worth doing.

Chill your jets bro, no need to call anyone out.
Send a pm to Racer98, and or call him.
He's been a member here far longer than you have, and from what I hear a very reputable person.

One, I'm trying to help you. Last time I checked, you are the one that's shit out of luck in your dilemma.
Two, when did I say I was in the Air Force & no, my 240 doesn't have rust at all actually. I don't have to worry too much about that since I don't live in weather conditions that create rust quickly.
Three, Zilvia Junkie is an automated title for achieving a certain post count. If I had a choice, I wouldn't have that on there. It's a bit tacky.
Four, you're getting a bit too offended by somebody confronting YOUR mistakes. Everything you've done in that transaction was out of your impulse/instinct, where did that get you? You're still headlight-less.
But fine, if you don't want my help/other members help: I won't make any more attempts to help you.
