:D

No offense to anyone here, but I have been through the motions and was able to file a proper dispute through PayPal after being fed a line of stuff by the good man Sean. I am technically owed nothing once PayPal settles the dispute, and I finally made arrangements to get parts elsewhere after settling with the fact that our boy Sean is the world's biggest douche. I feel that I am a good person, that I am overly trusting, and that I try to give people a first and second chance. However, I am always suspicious, and I am hardly naive. To the folks who are still holding out for hope: don't. Add to the list: Emma Scurci, turbobrickindustries@gmail.com

I call bullpoop. This is after reneging the dispute where he didn't send me anything for a month and totally screwed my life coordination up: (Sean, June 14): Hey Adam, Sorry I've been out of touch. I made a recent post on TB, I was out of the country (Germany, I'm in the Army) for a couple weeks. Anyway, the turbo is here and I can have it out by Wed, but there's a hold on my PP account and I don't have the money to mail it now. lol. So let me know if you want it or if I should sell it to someone else who wants it. Sorry for the delay, that's totally my fault. Thanks for being so patient! Sean 714 553 1158 (text first, I don't answer unknown calls!) (Adam, June 14): I need it ASAP (I only have one car at the moment and it needs work - I can't do a lot of the work that I need to until I get the turbo!). I put a hold on the account because I had been emailing you and hadn't heard back (I assume you took the $ and ran). I don't know if there's any way to send it out sooner (or faster), but I really got screwed on this one as I planned a LOT around the timing of this (no offense). I'll take the hold off, please just get everything to me ASAP. Thanks. (Sean, June 14): Ok no worries. I can mail it on or before Wed (I'm gonna be out of town again Thurs-Sun, I will make sure it's on the way before then!). Let me know when the hold comes off so I can get the money into my acct.! Thanks much, I appreciate it! (Adam, June 16): Sean, just verifying that this was sent out. Otherwise, I will make arrangements to get one by this weekend elsewhere. Thanks. (Sean, June 16): I'll be at the PO around 2 to mail it out. I'll have a tracking number for you then. Thanks! (Adam, June 17): Thanks Sean, Do you have an ETA or tracking number for me? Thanks. (Sean, June 17): Sent it slow poke style because of funds, but I'm thinking by Wed-Thurs at the latest. I'm sorry it took so long. I'm gonna be out of town (middle of poking nowhere) until Mon morn, on my way out the door for a backpacking trip. I'll check back with you on Monday! (Adam, June 21): Sean, did you have a tracking number on this so I can plan my week? I need to get my other car in the shop and it would be great to be able to drive the Bertone. Thanks. (Adam, June 28): Sean, no turbo yet. I'll be disputing the payment again today as I never received a tracking number from you. Still no turbo, PayPal was kind enough to re-open my dispute. This guy is effed. I had the chance to get from two different sources but didn't because I was holding onto empty lies made by the douchebag.

Thanks to Bob and those involved. I was promised a turbo, was never sent it, disputed via PayPal, was told he couldn't send it until the dispute was reneged... was told it was sent, wasn't given a tracking number, couldn't reopen dispute via PP website. Called today on the LAST day of the 45 day guarantee. PP has re-opened the dispute and he can either 1) send a tracking #, 2) issue a refund within 11 days. If he takes no action, I get my $ back. PP told me that anyone OVER the 45 days is SOL through their guarantee, but the party involved is more than welcome to file a dispute with whoever issued the funds (credit card, bank, etc). NOW, here's the fun part... in addition to Bob being the man, my lawyer (an awesome Volvo guy by the way) sent me this: "Worse case scenario, best, and most cost effective would be to file with the US attorney general (as the fraud involves interestate mail and wired funds) and the state attorney general. Free. Typically quick online form for complaint. And it does work." I'd suggest all who have been slighted consider taking this course of action. I'll be damned if some punk thinks he can get away with interstate e-robbery!
