**UPDATE**

Received the calipers today, not inspected yet as I got to hit the gym then Jiu Jitsu straight after!

So, here is the email I have just sent him.


*************

Hello Marcel,

After a long and painful ordeal I today have received the calipers.

I have not yet inspected them, as I have things to do first, so thought I would just drop you a quick line in order to let you know they were received.

Yes, I doubted that I was going to recieve them and I am sure you can understand why.

I may of said some things while upset, so please ignore those comments but I will not apologise, as I was very patient and everyone has their breaking point.

Now, in regards to the Paypal dispute, I will resolve it so that any restrictions on your account can be removed. Also, in regards to the £60 I retrieved back, personally I think this should remain as a good will gesture due to the nature of the sale! Please give me your thoughts on this.

It is unfortunate the way things worked out, but in all honesty you only have yourself to blame with the appauling way you handled the sale.

I will paste this email in the relevent feedback thread and if the mods/admins feel they need to take any further action in regards to the restriction placed on your account, I'm sure they will be in touch.

Thank you.

Regards,

Gee Wood

EDIT

Unfortunately the package was not internally packaged. 1 piece of rolling up brown paper protect calipers, pads, springs etc from one side of the world to another.

The brake pads have small chunks missing. Guess they will wear OK?

Several springs are missing that go in place on the calipers..can you only get these with pads or order from Toyota?

A drainage bolt is missing from one of the calipers.

A bolt thats holds the carriers to the calipers is missing also.

I bought this kit as I was advised it was a complete bolt on kit, but seems like I will have to gather a few things.

least you got them gee.

you can buy spring fitting kits for them on the aftermarket, and i would recomend you get a new set of pads aswell, chunks mising from pad area is not good.

the bolts you should be able to get from toyota.

hope you get it sorted mate,

and its a shame things got as bad as they did

Hi SX.

The chunks are not massive, will get someone to look at them, but hopefully they will be OK, or thats more bloody cost!

Glad to hear u got your stuff GEE. The situation was bad but sometimes u need to give persons the benefit. I'm sure traders on here at some point had a very bad experience with a shipping company or your supplier and a customers who is paying there money and not getting there products in the stipulated time frame .

I think you should return the 60gbp u did get your product and he didn't robbed you as u thought he did. It was a stressful situation but shit happens at the end u got your stuff

Yeah, got the stuff, 2 months later after being messed around, messages being ignored, hassle of raising disputes to PayPal and then when I recieve the goods, they are badly packaged with parts missing and chunks out of the pads.

I have emailed him and he is not replying.

you are in your rights to keep your 60 quid. if mcdonalds took ages to make your burger, then when you got it it was missing the sauce you would expect a refund!

crap analogy i know

I think you should use the £60 to get them to "as described" condition.

theres no way id be giving the £60 back if they turned up in that state. small bit of compensation if you ask me.

If they'd arrived perfect, in my opinion it would have been wrong to keep the money.

However, they didn't so keep it and get them fixed up! :)

it sounds as if GLanzaX is either a friend of 3gte or infact him on another account becuase anyone in a sounds mind that has read this thread would be disgusted by the outcome.

Gee had to wait the length of time through the hassle and in finale he recieved parts which were not as described.

I would use the £60 to get the parts to the way they were meant to be...

glanzaX - sticking up for the seller.

Gee - waiting long time, left with parts which were not as described.

Gee - keeps the money to make the parts better...

This is not sticking up for anyone . i have learnt to give everyone the benefit , as i told u i sent the guy about 1600 to 1700 usd for parts via western union and he didn't rob me it took a while and i got my stuff so i was saying that it could have been the shipping indeed just wait and see . All the talk that was placed up on the site " he seems to be always broke is uncalled for ". If gee want to give the money back that GEE AND 4AGTE_EP82 problem they need to sort it out . What i said is just my opinion . Look he got banned and everything from the site now u can't hear his side . Why wasn't he banned before when streetch said he was was robbed had to be something else it to the story .
