    did you give the money to him or his buddy? if you met with him and your money went into his hands then it's damn sure his responsibility.

    No I had to meet with his buddy, because he said he had stuff to do, and I told him that I needed it before the weekend....
    Its just the fact that he said he had one that was in good shape! Then the story kept on changing after that!

    Im sure he is a good guy, but this isnt right, and he is trying to throw it off on his so called friend!

    Im just gonna sell it on ebay, and put that it doesnt work but all the wiring, and soleniod(spl) are good! Or something like that!

    I've only heard good things about him as well. Sounds like you got a raw deal. I hope it works out well. I saw a really nice Blitz boost meter the other day from a really good seller (ebay-japandy) I've dealt with a few times out of Japan. I'll check and see if it's still there. Good luck.

    I don't blame you one bit for posting it up. That's what this forum was designed to do. A resolution should be reached on it. He sells a good bit of stuff on this forum and I would think he would want to keep his reputation intact. I'm glad that you found another one that worked out for you. I know how it feels to be excited about getting a part you want and then it not work out. It's a big let down and under the circumstances I would imagine would make a person a little pissed off as well. I hope Famous Atticus resolves it properly and maintains his rep as a good seller.

    I bought some RS Watanabes from famous_atticus, but he apparently had family problems so he couldn't show up to meet up with me.
    Instead, I had to wait about 3 hours at the Varsity in order for his girlfriend to show up with the rims.
    They were all that he described, but I just wish I didn't have to wait in Atlanta for so long.
    I lost $5 to a bum that night.
    I swear they stalk you until you give up...
