It was perfect when I shipped it

Right, the problem is that its bent. If it wasn’t bent there wouldn’t be a problem. It wasn’t bent from shipping. It has very developed surface rust where its bent. I’m 100% certain it was bent before shipping.
And as for you not giving me anything NOW, be honest with yourself even if you refuse to be with me, you were never planning to give me anything to make it right. Thats why i say your business practices are shady. What did i do wrong? Send payment in full quickly and expect my parts in good condition in a somewhat timely manner? Like under 2 months?
You’re a joke and I’m not laughing. Enjoy my money you worthless scammer.

They look the exact same except one is bent
The one I sent wasn’t bent when I sent it
Should have told me it was bent in shipping as you would have gotten it from ups
It’s your “business” ethic that is bad and I’m not sending you anything now sorry for not giving you free parts

I bought another bumper support yes, but they are not even close to the same. I’ll include pictures. After seeing how different it was I tried to bolt it up to the front clip and couldn’t even get it to line up. It is completely worthless just like the seatbelt pillars with the holes drilled in it. We made an agreement that you would refund $85 (as opposed to the $350 PayPal was going to make you) and now you’re telling me that I will have to wait for it until you sell something? Your business practices couldn’t be any worse. I’m not interested in any more parts from you. Just my money.

Seatbelt stuff
Cpillars
Like I said before
Use those belts and stuff to get your nuts welded up and sell them and we can make a deal for a peeeeerfect set lol
I also have a mint armrest for manual belts
When I sent you those other ones I thought you seen their condition in the pics
And the jdm support was good but you already know that cuz you bought another and compared them and realized they are the same
Could you send me a pic of both the supports side by side to show me this alleged difference?
Anyways let me know

So it appears that PayPal has come to a conclusion. I’m sure you received the notification as well. It seems that they decided in a return for full refund which is not what either of us was determining to be fair. If I return them I’m out return shipping and you’re out original shipping. So we both lose money. I decided before just packing them up and returning them I’d see if you wanted to negotiate a less loss ridden resolution. I’m willing to accept $85 refund (half of the cost of shipping) and I’ll keep the parts. I figure better for both of us to lose $85 than both of us lose $170 but I don’t know if you feel the same way. If you do let me know and we can work it out if not I’ll just send them back and get part of my money back anyway.

If you want a mint condition set I will sell you the seatbelt stuff out of my car
250 plus shipping and fees

Price breakdown
170 for shipping
100 jdm bumper support
80 seat belts/ pillar covers
And your paypal fee
I recommend using the pillars and belts to mock up for welding and sell them for double or triple what you paid and when I get your c pillars I will have a full set at that point
As for the bumper support I got it from a jdm importer a few years ago and it’s been sitting ever since
I did mount it to a bumper when I first got it and mounted that to my car and it fit fine
I would like to see the pics you took though
For being a piece of tin being shipped I was glad to hear it didn’t get bent
Either way I will make this right for you
If you want to send the stuff back I will refund your money less shipping cost
Lmk what your thinking

So good condition to you means holes drilled all over in a panel? I wouldn’t have even made an offer if I knew they’re real condition. And NO, the bumper support is not FINE, I SPECIFICALLY said in my post NO DAMAGED ONES PLEASE. This one has a dent, which has cracked the paint off the back and is rusting. Not at all what I define as FINE. I’ll attatch a pic even though you already know what it looks like. So I take it from your tone that you’re not willing to do anything to settle this than?

Those holes were in the pic and the bumper support is fine

Yes, they arrived. To my dismay though as soon as I opened them I found that the drivers side A/B panel has several holes, and gouges in it. 5 holes to be exact, 4 of which were drilled and one that looks like it was carved out with a dinner knife and 2 very severe scrapes. The condition of that panel is completely unusable to me. The front bumper support is also damaged, it has a dent (which is rusting from the back so its not from shipping damage). I’m very upset that I waited so long and paid so much for these parts that are in such poor condition. I was very clear in my post on g2ic saying that I was looking for the parts, that condition was extremely important to me. I’m building a car worthy of showing, not a beater and cannot have damaged body supports and panels with holes and gouges.

I opened a case in the PayPal resolution center since its obvious the parts won’t be here within the 45 day window. My question is this, do you actually ever plan to send them or were you just hoping to string me along until it was too late? It’s been over 6 weeks since I sent payment so I am going to ask that they be shipped with tracking info within 24 hours or I am going to escalate it to a dispute. I’ve been more than patient with you and your situation and now I’m moving on. Either I get the parts or I get my money back. No more games. If you really do care about your selling reputation here’s your chance to show it.

Actually let’s just wait til you have everything ready to ship. I still want them I just would prefer have it covered by PayPal. So if you don’t mind, just refund the money and let me know when its all ready to ship and I’ll send it again. That way my protection window on PayPal will be a full 45 days again. Don’t worry though, as soon as you have them ready to ship I’ll still have the money ready! Thanks

I definitely do understand your situation and it wouldn’t be a huge problem but PayPal only covers the buyer for 45 days. I’ve learned you can never be too careful dealing with people online. Not saying you’re out to rip me off, just that I have been in the past. I know you can’t predict the weather but what time frame are you thinking it’ll be before you could ship the stuff you have ready now and access the other stuff? It may just be better to send it back and do it later as you said. Thanks!

Belts and buckles and hardware are still frozen in my shed
The pillar covers and support are ready to go but I havnt made it to ups
If it’s a big deal I can send your money back and we can deal with this when the ground isn’t frozen anymore.
I really didn’t think there was still going to be a foot of snow here in March but it’s been constant -20c here.
I have good feedback on g2ic and would like this to go the same way.
Sorry for the delay
Let me know what you want to do
