i bought an item off a guy on here and got it very quick delivery

i have gone to fit it and it is totally wrong, now i have tried to contact the guy and he wont reply to my pm's but i can see he has been on line

the impression i get is he has got my money now and dosent care

what should i do

 

PM me the details and i will act as an intermediatery and see if we can sort it out.

 

Dave has replied to your PM.

You saw the picture of the part you were buying BEFORE you paid the money, you then questioned if the part was off an Escort Cosworth in the first place, so not quite sure what Dave is to do.

IMO you should have double checked what part you needed.

 

Have a look at my account if you like l have always sent back a pm


Cheers

 

if it was off your car why was there no air bag light on it,

and it takes this thread to get him to reply to me,what does that tell you?

 

Firstly I didnt know it was you he had dealt with until you posted on here.

Secondly I cannot access a users PM's

Thirdly Is there anything you can do to sort this out as there has obviously been a misunderstanding?

 

yea but it took awhile for you to relpy

 

Regardless of that can this be sorted out amicably?

 

It was not my car it was Dave's car, and after owning it for 11 years i'm sure he knew what parts were what on the car !!!! After all it took it apart and put it back together plenty of times !


Not really our problem if YOU bought the wrong part !!!!!

 

No but IMO it is your problem if the advert for this part was incorrect or misleading.

Hence why i need more information.

 

there was a photo of the part on the for sale post on here, so he saw exactly what he was buying before he agreed to buy it.


And now he is saying it is the wrong part ???

 

if its not of your car then what has this thread got to do with you?

 

What was it advertised as though?

 

This is turning into a tit for tat arguement now!!

I just need the facts of whats happened and then maybe we can get somewhere!!???

 

This is the picture of the item



And what it said was Clock front for Escort Cosworth

Now how clear can the picture be?


Cheers

 

Sorry but l do have a life, really for fuck sake l have always replyed to your pms

Cheers

 

It was my others half's car so has a lot to do with me, no need to be clever and cocky is there ??


Now what is your exact problem as you requested the part in the photo above which is a escort cossie front clock front, so Dave sent you it as described, and now you are saying it is wrong?

 

Was exactly as advertised

 

Ok im getting the feeling that this part was for an Escos BT where infact the buyer needed a part for an Escos ST?

 

Have a read of this

Cheers

 

lol so that would be a yes to my question then!!

 

but if it was of a big turbo then it wasnt of daves car

as his add said breaking yum

 

At the end of the day, it was sold as in the picture


Now really not my fault if he has bought the wrong part, and then l get stupid pm's

So really all he needs to do is sell it on and make sure he buys the right part


Cheers

 

Come on

Every one knows l had a AIM dash and took the small turbo steering wheel, and steering column of years ago and replaced it with a 5 spoke wheel and big turbo steering column


This is getting boring

Cheers

 

you must need the Ł50 more than me. i'll just put this down to expierence and know NEVER to buy off you again

 

did i know that

 

Not really after all the money we got back from YUM.


Glad you wont be buying from us again.


Next time you buy a part for your Escort make sure you know what you are talking about !!!!!

 

like i said before nothing to do with you i bought of dave and it was between me and him not me and you

 

Im going to lock this thread now.

I have to say though that IMO Dave/Helen have done nothing wrong, the part was as advertised and was off of Daves car.

Dave/Helen did not know the part was to be used on a ST Escos and really its down to the buyer to confirm exactly what he/she is buying.

 

Sorry, I am unlocking this as its getting a little confusing...

YUM is a SMALL TURBO T28 Car is it not?
Therefore, surely if selling parts from it that would NOT FIT a T28 car then the advert should have some sort of disclaimer such as:

 

What exactly is the difference and could the difference be determined by looking at the picture?

Tim

 

I think it's impossible to tell the difference without seeing the dials and lights in situ.

 

There was a photo of the part on the for sale post, surely the buyer could tell the difference ?

 

Maybe an expert could. I couldnt. But should anyone have to? Should parts not be correctly and honestly advertised in the first place?

 

thats what i thought as the advert said "breaking yum" and the part i bought is not out of an small turbo escort.

 

the top pic is my one



you can see were the cut is for warning lights
also mine has an air bag light on the bottom left,the one i bought didn't so its not out of an small turbo air bag model, this is why i asked on escort cosworth forum if there was a difference in big turbo to small turbo face

 

Give it a rest really

Its was sold as a escort cosworth clock front, did not say small or big and when selling there is picture to see what it looked like

Really do l need to hold the buyers hand for him, look in the picture for fuck sake its easy


Now the guy did not look at the picture so thats my fault? and then sends me stupid pm and then complaims to the mods about me

If Passionford is really that upset about what l have done the take my account away from me easy

Cheers

Dave


PS l have sold loads and loads of parts a not had a problem untill now and christ it was sold with a picture and it came out of YUM and that is a small turbo model of maybe l just talking shite and l just dont know what l selling or owned

 

In that case, I personally uphold your complaint that the part is not as described. I can see the missunderstanding, but the fact is, this part is not properly described.

As an example Dave,
If you were to sell the engine out of YUM, would you just put "Engine out of T28 Escos for sale" or would you elaborate and explain the differences between the standard one and the one your selling because its not the standard part?

Someone would get a shock if they tried to wire yours into their standard T28 engine bay wiring and fuel system . LOL

 

Your attitude is shite today Dave, your doing yourself no favours here considering you are the one in the wrong...

 

In the wrong?

The part came out of YUM what have l got to do to explaine?



I broke yum and this was the clocks in the car simple

I owned the car for 11 years and it never had the clocks changed and my model of car was a small turbo


Cheers
