Black_55AMG ripped me off- do not buy ANYTHING from him

I bought a custom intercooler from him and didnt fit and he will not respond or refund my money now. He only accepts money orders so stay away. I'm in the process of filing charges now as this is grand larceny and have all his messages and receipts showing he ripped me off. Here is his info also

I dont see how its his problem that it didnt fit. Buyer beware sometimes, especially if its something custom.

Its his problem when he says it will fit and tells me he will refund me then will not return messages or anything. So if you buy something and they say its "custom" and it dosen't work or fit then its your fault? If thats how you see it i've got a lot of stuff i can sell you.

Well, if he stated to you that it will fit or your money back then you have the right to file a complaint. Good luck!

Leaving out the fact that he said he'd refund the money changes my stance.
