Be careful who you buy from online

AirStang · March 13th, 2011, 09:59 PM

I bought my car on ebay. I paid for an enclosed transport but he put it on an open tranport. My 2012 Boss splitter has to be replaced which isn't released from Ford Racing yet and I don't expect him to take care of it. The car came from Michigan so I had to put in a comprehensive claim to get my 2011 GT repainted from bumper to bumper plus all of the glass replaced. My insurance can't get ahold of the guy about the damages much less I can't for a transport refund. His name is Dean Martin with Rehagen racing. I have bought vehicles before through ebay with no problems. The insurance company is probably going to have to take him to court.

Huh? What happened to the car? Why did it have to be repainted and get new glass??

Morty8833 · March 13th, 2011, 10:09 PM

HMUSN · March 13th, 2011, 10:21 PM

worrgp · March 14th, 2011, 08:58 AM

I have said for awhile now your first 10 log in's shouldh ave a pop up about this stuff and bench racing.

101fng · March 14th, 2011, 11:47 AM

the 05-09 section is the worst. what CAI is the best? what color should i paint my valve covers? what size wheels would look better?

i mean, don't get me wrong, i was a new guy once too and made the same threads, but now i feel bad for the guys that have been here for 5 years and seen the same threads at least once every month.

OP, sucks for you.

just food for thought.

OP. you can dispute using ebay

AirStang · March 14th, 2011, 06:53 PM

First off I bought a 2011 Mustang GT online on ebay. The Standard Boss 302 splitter is on it but it hasn't been released yet because I can't get a replacement still. I paid for an enclosed transport and the seller put it on an open transport on the bottom directly behind the truck which caused the damage. It was like being sandblasted from michigan to florida. The splitter got damaged on the transport. The car came from Ford with the FRPP handling package plus it has the GT500 axle back plus SVT track pack wheels. I am just saying watch it online because you don't always get what you pay for or some will take or try to take advantage of you.

Mach Boy · March 14th, 2011, 07:07 PM

So it has a bunch of paint damage then? Nothing major?

worrgp · March 14th, 2011, 09:34 PM

and if the standard boss splitter is not released yet how do i have one on my car....
you really need to learn about what your talking about

pber13 · March 15th, 2011, 07:44 AM

Perfect example of why I do my own deliveries. And always look at the vehicle in person before buying.

I could never buy a car online without seeing it and test driving it first. Thats like buying a pair off shoes without trying them on and hoping they will fit.

Very true, for all anyone knows, the vehicle could have looked that way prior to shipping.

HighDensity · March 15th, 2011, 03:49 PM

That's why I drove a car 1500 miles home after flying there to buy it.

I do know what I am talking about. It is a 2012 Ford Boss mustang Basic Boss splitter. The prior owner I bought the car from works for a racing company, so he is privy to things from Ford Racing because they work hand in hand which the usual Ford customer isn't. The Ford dealer told me it is a Ford OEM 2012 Boss Mustang part. It will be released soon.

At least shoes are usually less than $100. I hope insurance takes care of the damage and you post some pics after - good luck!

PiggySmallz · March 22nd, 2011, 08:37 PM
