so i bought front and rear plastics from some salvage place on ebay friday. they have a 100% feedback so i thought i would be good right? nope, this guy has not answered any of my emails, messages, or phone calls until today when i just kept on calling. all i wanted to know is if he had a tracking number, then he tells me he hasn't even shipped out the plastics because he can't find a big enough box. what a lame excuse if you ask me! if i were to list some thing on a site i would make sure i could send it out as soon as poss. or i would wait till i had time. or the box. not to mention he got about $50 more to ship then it actually costs.

well i just wanted to vent out some frustration that's all. thanks for listening, cause my wife don't want to hear it anymore. lol.

my seller doesn't have a location even listed to find out if it's worth picking up. i try and only buy from businesses not individuals, but i guess that doesn't always work either. and good buy on the swing arm! i'll give ya $75 shipped! lol. just joking...

I bought some plastic from a ATV dealer on ebay, which was discribed as "good condition" and pics of shined up plastic always looks good. but when I got it, it looked like they had been useing the rear fenders for a parts tray and draging it around on a cement floor for a year or two.

well i really hope that the plastics are in usable condition. they don't have to be new, most of them will be covered with number plates and graphics. the more i think about it, i think i should of bought new for the extra $125. but only time will tell.
