Subscribed, I would like to see how this turns out.

The trust level and respect level on this forum has gone way down since I have been here (quite a few years now), just a honest observation. Hopefully these are just a few isolated incidents, but I agree with some others, perhaps we should have a "rep" thread about members and vendors?

Another funny thing is guys like ba continues to post and be allowed to post and guys like Shardul get suspended. If you rip off a member or scam a member you should be suspended if not banned

So true. Well karma will bite BA. Maybe he will have a crank bolt failure and go kaboom.

I think the best part is he continues to post here and has chosen to completely ignore the call outs. It's like a child sitting in the corner with their ears plugged screaming I can't here you.

I would contact internet brands and notify them that there is a vendor on one of their forums scamming people. This is what happened back in the 360 forged days and they got a lot of heat from it

Two words come to mind:

Charlie Wenzel



Arguably the most famous internet pwnage ever by a message forum against a scammer on their site..... if you have about a jillion spare hours you can type that name into Google and start reading (and laughing)

Cliff notes: Charlie Wenzel scammed someone on some parts and thought he was safe because it was "the internets".... where nobody can mess with your "real" life. He was very wrong.

CLS55 AMG
last i filled up with 94 octane, it was $1.51/litre... so multiply that by 3.78, you get $5.70/gallon... times that by an 80 litre tank, and it's $120 to fill which is why i drive down to Blaine and fill up a lot of the time, gas is a more reasonable 3.89/gallon there for 92 octane

What I don't get is why the MODS have not stepped in, as you have clear proof he's defrauded you? Hell they ban Shardul for a week for some minor infraction but Benz_Addict sent you a damaged pulley and won't make it right and he was on here 3 days ago!

F%*k'd up that's what it is.
