I bought an intercooler off Bicrod on this site which was described to having some fin damage which was not a problem.
I was also told that it had all the piping to suit a CT9 setup.
I paid £260 for the intercooler and piping etc and it was dropped off at my mechanic's to be fitted. My mechanic did not have time to fit the cooler and I was told mine was more than efficent..OK fine.
So I decided to sell it on to another member on this site in good faith for £200, which leaves me £50 down.
Turns out that the 'fin damage' is actually a HOLE and not all the pipes are present and some are cut!
There is black around the hole where air has been leaking and an intercooler that does not hold pressure is obviously useless.
Now I am getting the worthless intercooler back from who I sold it to and I am refunding his money, because basically I am an honest guy and did not know it was fucked.
I am having to pay postage on it too!
I am a bit of a wally for not checking the goods properly I must admit, but I bought it in good faith off a member on here.
Bicrod bought an Autobahn cooler to replace this and now I know why..it was leaking through the hole.
Paypal cant help, as it has gone over the caldender 45 days - due to the cooler sitting in the attic and then at the garage to be fitted.
I have emailed Bicrod and sent a PM today and he was on this site yesterday, so will more than likely also checked his email.
Eitherway, do you really think he is going to refund my money? Doubt it, but if so, then this will only then turn in to a happy ending and good feedback for him.
So I'm currently £300 down at the moment, all in time for Xmas..
