« on: Jun 27, 2010, 03:07:15 pm »
It seems as though everyone that has does business with this guy has done great. Unfortunately I'm lucky enough to get hosed. I posted a request for parts on 3-23-10 for a windshield and mirrors for a '83 Celica. Richie had an offer the same day which I thought high. A new, more reasonable offer was made 1 week later. I paid on 4-11-10 and was told it would ship 4-14-10 that day, then 4-15-10 it will ship 4-19-10.After two more "oops I couldn't ship" I finally got a tracking number on 5-4-10 and that the mirrors would ship in a different box soon. I got the windshield on 5-7-10 in a box that would have no way got the glass to me in one piece. I left the box one the UPS truck for return and was told by the driver that UPS probably wouldn't pay insurance on the box because of insufficient packaging. I sent Richie an email that night telling him what happened. He responded the next day saying he would try the insurance. On 5-20-10 he said insurance was denied but he would get me my money back in a couple weeks. I never did get another box with mirrors either. On 6-11-10 I sent him my final email requesting my money in one week or I would give bad feedback and turn him in to Paypal. Well, here I am giving bad feedback and Paypal is next. Unfortunately Paypal only does anything within 45 days but they will keep it on record. So watch what you buy and talk to Paypal within 45 days if not happy with a transaction, and don't give Ritchie $250 and a long rope

ducman, what Onyxyth is saying is that there is an explanation for your not getting any response from Richard is in the thread Richiegts.

I wasn't going to say anything, but the dash vents that I got from richie were in a freaking envelope. No way in hell they were going to make it here in one piece. I got my money back from him though.

I'm starting to get a little bit nervous that the guy has 55$ of mine and I haven't heard from him in like a month and a half.  I'm trying to sell the goddamn car and I want to put these parts in before I sell it.  I saw the other thread and everything, but it's been over two weeks since he was supposed to be back and I still haven't heard a peep and he hasn't replied to my messages...

Sorry to tell you but he got sentenced 6 months....What parts does he owe you...He ditched a whole bunch of parts at my house before he got in jail so they might be in there somewhere.

Wow, that sucks.  He was going to send me a heater blower motor and a passenger side window switch both for an 85 gts.
