Well, I don't know.
Because I'm a foreigner, and I've only been here for 3 years, so I'm not really familiar with the law in USA.
Do you know any lawyer or fellow MBWorld members who can help us?

I had a problem with Virtual Junkyard a few weeks ago a well but really if you try to contact them and explain whatever happen they will make good on the pieces. They returned my 700 dollars right after I talked to Jason I thought they were out to get me as well but they did send me back my money back right away. If you have any questions about them I can help you. Pm me or post reply

The person sold me the bumper is David, I guess he is the brother of Jason. I have call him more than 100 times with good manner! He doesn't seem to solve the problem, but ignore me.

Did you pay him by credit card? When I bought the bumper in Feb, they only take check and money order, no credit card.

Hi, all,
I got half of the refund on Thursday. Adriana promised me to send me another check next Monday. It seems the problem is going to be solved.
Good luck!

Adriana promised me that she would send me the second check last week, and then I will ship back the bumper. However, I have not seen the second check.
I just called her, and she told me I have to send them back the bumper first, and they will return me the money. What the promise is? She thought people are the same like themselves?
Don't forget, I've sent them my money, before I got the "wrong" bumper!
Anyway, I just want to solve the problem and get my money back!
I will take the bumper to FedEx as soon as I get their shipping label.
I will let you know the result....

It kind of bothers me that they never called/emailed to let me know the problem. However, once it was cleared up, they shipped them out right away. I have yet to install the lights, so, I can't state whether or not they actually work. But, I will update when I do.
Good luck with your situation.

Hey guys, I just thought that I would update this thread. I just bought a w203 grill from David at Virtual Junkyard here in Houston, TX. I was searching through ebay for a stock grill that I want paint black and he had his contact information listed there with the item so I figured I'd give him a call. Anyways long story short, I picked the item up at his shop and it was a very smooth transactionl.
He runs his business from a new warehouse that looks fairly organized and he had several other MB stuff.
Again, I picked my item up at his shop so it might be another story if he had to ship it to me.

It is more than a year after I sent him the check.
I only got 50% money back.
I called him two weeks ago, he told me that I am the first one to return the money, if they get enough money......
