Sorry to be late to chime in on this one but I have been away from the site for a few days. Finally closed a deal on a few parts with another member and got rid of a s**tload of packing material in the process. Even made a killing on the shipping--great deal all the way around.
Just yanking your chain Pat!
In all seriousness, I would never do that to another member. I have sold parts, bought parts and even been given parts by other guys here and things have always worked out. If this was not an oversight by the other member or some form of miscommunication, I think you need to call the person out. Obviously, there are two sides to every story but throwing out a rant with a hint of "who done it" mixed in doesn't do anything to prevent these things from happening to somebody else.
On any deal big or small, it is akways a good idea to get it in writing. Get specific pricing and what is included for that price. That way there are no surprises over upcharges or parts not included, etc. You wouldn't think you should have to do that on every little deal but these days, you never know.
My two cents anyway!
