Teg_Qbanita
First off let me say i've never had a bad transaction over IA which is a very good thing. Everything i've ever purchased from sellers has been in the condition as described and if there WERE any defects I was notified of it- And that I do appreciate so thank you to all the people i've dealt with.
Now I am not one to judge ones character so I wont bash this guy or anything of the likes- HOWEVER in my wtb post i posted up for a starter and got several replies. Eventually I recieved a message from Teg_Qbanita saying he had a starter for $20 and he lived relatively close so it seemed like a win win situation great price and close!
Met up with the guy on wednesday night and purchased the starter, sat around chit chatted for awhile and he seemed like a pretty cool person. Well immediately afterwards I went home to put the starter on, got done and low and behold it didn't work. I figured maybe I did something wrong (considering there's only two plugs on the starter it's hard to f up lol). Checked it several times. Did a little searching and posting on honda-tech to see if anybody would know why it didn't work and I didn't get too many responses that helped. Well I took it to advance auto and had them test it and the starter gear itself is jammed. Yesterday Chris (Teg_Qbanita) said that he would talk to his friend and let me know something. Didn't hear anything back from him regarding it except "he's got one and i'm going to see if he'll let me get it"
Sent him 2 text messages today and got no response so i called. Told him i'd like to meet back up and swap the two back out cash for starter, says someone test drove his car and messed up some part on it. I told him i'd drive to him to which he replied "well i don't have the $20 and it'll be next week i can give it to you when i get paid"
I told him he can keep the $20 but I will be posting up on IA, so people check your parts and who you buy them from to make sure they work.
By the way he also stated when asked why did you remove it "i took it off because i thought it was the starter so i bought a new one and it ended up being the ignition so i just kept the new starter so i figured it worked...NOT.
G'day
