I purchased his LS1 motor and the swap kit from him

Payment for the motor and swap kit was sent on Oct 30th for $4567.50
Payment for the Pro5.0 shifter was sent of Nov 6th for $130.00




All the conversation was exchanged via text message. Seller was very courteous to let me know the status on the shipping.

Nov 11th
Seller notified me that shipping company will pick up the shipment next day via text message.

Nov 14th
I got emails from paypal that seller issued refund for both of the transaction.
Contacted seller and I was told the motor was damaged by shipping company and he sincerely apologized for the disappointment.





Nov 19th
Emails from paypal notified me that seller (07kyeringt) did not have sufficient fund in his bank account therefore paypal could not process his refund.
Contacted seller, he advised that I should open disputes on paypal to get my money back. He also told me that he is having issue with his bank account.




Spoke to Paypal and they advised me to wait till their 2nd attempt to withdrawal from the seller's account. Then open the dispute.
Paypal assured me that even seller does not pay me back, paypal will refund the money and pursuit the seller after.

Nov 23rd
Paypal's 2nd attempt on refund is failed due to same issue (insufficient fund)
I opened dispute through paypal for those 2 transactions.


No matter what the reason was behind, please do not send any payment to this seller.

This is on-going matter and I will post once I get any updates.

looks like there is another person who sent $ for the parts. Wonder his refund got cleared.

That really sucks.. I bought the wiring harness from him.

My deal went perfectly smooth, 0 issues at all.
He seemed like a really cool guy through PM and text conversations, so I have nothing negative to say.

Similar story to yours from another website...

http:// silviav8 forums.com /forum/viewtopic.php?t=5611

Only thing I am suspect here, is that the guy sent money for the harness (after I already received that harness in the mail)

I almost feel like he just sent money, and didn't even talk to the guy..
That's just my speculation though.

Did paypal send you your money back?

rmxmitch

I sent the money, I received the parts..

Smooth Transaction from my view!

Drifter_85

Sorry about that. It was ment for the OP.

It's shitty that you didn't get the parts you wanted but at least you didn't lose money.

K_style

No, seller didn't have enough money in his bank account.

Got an email from Paypal about final trial of refund attempt.

FAILED.

K_style

Getting upset or angry doesn't help/solve anything. I'd like to face the fact and figure out what my options are.

In this case, paypal assured me for the refund so I am holding aces. But I am not quite sure what the seller's plan is. Bail out of country with lump sum of money?

I am afraid there are more victims out there still thinking their "refund" will clear.

g35gabby

My husband tells me that........... regularly....

GL and hope you get it solved.

PS as someone who works in banking. Posting something with the last four digits of your mastercard # probably isn't the smartest move on a public forum.

Might want to Cover that up. Just sayin...

I paid for wheels n he stopped responding

Kstyle. I'm not scamming u. That is not possible with paypal and the way the transaction proceeded. I do apologize for any inconvenience. I did ask u to escalate thru paypal so they would refund u. They have limited my account do to the larger transactions. PayPal will take care of you.

Eric I told u wheels would ship monday. U texted me at 8 am. I was going to respond with tracking info later that day after work. and before I could do so I received a email saying u disputed transaction. Your impateince and added input on this thread is irrelevant and ignorant.

Wheels have been sold to somebody else. And will shipping to them today.

This entire thread is throwing mud on my name. I do not scam anyone. Look at my trader ratings. They were all % 100. I apologize if this inconvenienced u kstyle. Some of this was out of my control between paypal and shipping company.

13coupe.ericlee

Well I've been texting you and hitting you up on zilvia you don't respond and where's the tracking number I disputed the wheels last night because of no response. I don't see how you can sell the wheels to someone else when I just disputed last night. So what is your reason? I'm very patient when you didn't come thru with your word by MONDAYwhat happened? I said what's going on You never responded.

13coupe.ericlee

I disputed it on tuesday night I gave you 24 hours and that night to respond on Monday and I have you all of tuesday soo don't say I didn't give you time expecially when all this stuff is being said and you had a bad review I still gave you 24 hours. Cause I wanted to wheels. But obviously you couldn't give me time to at least know what's going on.

Hatemy7

wow this guy is fogazy

RalliartRsX

My issue here is " you don't have sufficient funds"

If you are refunding someone, and Paypal is used, you should make sure to have the funds in check

Regardless of user rating, shit like this happens all the time........even with people with 100% feedback!

Lets remove paypal from this and just refund the gentleman's money, simple!

07kyeringt

Paypal has been contacted and things are underway. This isn't a scam. It's a unfortunate situation. In the end everything will be straight. Kstyle will get his money back.

You dudes are so amped for drama and think the worst of everything.

leedrift

I've had some shitty issues like this with my bank too. Not saying there could be shadyness going on, but banks can be dicks sometimes. And I love that drftx is posting all this shit, especially on JDMC.

07kyeringt

^ right. Stirring the pot.

If this was a scam I wouldn't be on this thread defending myself. I can say this thread in its entirety is blown out of proportion. Kstyle has every right to be upset. But he is getting his money back. Between the bank and paypal it has taken longer then neccisary.

If Paypal is in the middle of a dispute and attempting to refund money, then removing it from the equation is going to cause more problems. They will refund the money back to the purchaser.

If Keith were out to fck someone out of $4,600 he would not have attempted a refund, and he would not have allowed the dispute to happen. Typical scammer morons normally use excuses and other BS to hold onto the money that is not theres.

The angry Zilvia village idiots should put down their pitchforks and torches since that is clearly not what is happening here.
