Subject:Re: avoid Chris Turner (JordanVW)!!!! Boycott!! : bad dealings..

I was going to buy some damaged fiberglass bumpers from Chris. I asked
several times, and he never answered my question: Do these bumpers have
their mounting brackets? (note that Chris is far from the only one who
doesn't answer questions fully enough... dealers do this too).

I have steel bumpers and cannot get any used parts in this country, so
could not buy brackets separately if they had turned out not to be
included.

Partly for this reason I backed out of the deal (also I ran short of money
during the negotiations, so couldn't but them anyway).

However I wouldn't let this stop me ordering something else from Chris
PROVIDED he answered my questions fully.

As far as estimating shipping charges, it's impossible to know just how
much it'll be until you take the packaged item in to the PO and put it on
their scales. Don't expect a seller to package the item(s) and take them to
the PO to mass them, then bring them back home to e-mail you the
information!
