Ah, the "surcharge" card has been played, classic.

So the DHL Offer which made the shipping so cheap which he told you was BS then, otherwise he would know the price already.

Package it, measure it, weight it, get a quote, it aint rocket science and you dont have to wait for surcharges when shipping to the us/canada. All of the major couriers/shippers quote you online.

Claim, and claim fast!

All hope of getting anything is now gone, just want the money back so I can give it to someone reputable, like mr hamster.

I dont sell bits mate, just the occasional part that i've got laying around or something i've upgraded. I can put you in touch with a friend tho who is currently breaking a V4 Sti and has a good reputation.

Darren is being wise and responding to me. here is his proposition:

My response: An immediate refund of the 203GBP

I know where they are, theyre sat in front of him.

I'd like an explanation of what the surcharges are for and how much if I was you. I've dealt with UPS for 5 years shipping worldwide. They wont collect a parcel without all the relevant customs forms etc and unless you lie out of your **** on the size/weight when quoting it, you never get items "returned to sender". I reckon he's found out the shipping cost and had a hard-on, and now its up to you to get the £ back.

Darren has refunded me in full.
Thank you Darren.

I would advise pickup only. He does have desirable parts at great prices, but to avoid any issues or delays I would only pick up in person.

well done m8, they also trade on here as jd motorsport , they have loads of user names and ebay accounts, very very dodgy people,. thats how i got stung 3 times all by different names

Nice one hamster

Tut,tut,tut dodgey *******...

Think you should change your name from hamster to Danger Mouse

And your signature should say "Fighting Internet Injustice"

So DHL had a "special offer" but shipping was with UPS.

Aye right.

so glad cancelled engine purchase with these clowns.god knows when or if it would have turned up.bad news on loads of forums at the moment.and as for him stating earlier he checks mail etc all the time...bollocks as stated to me he hadnt checked all day on monday when he phoned me to say payment had been stopped.

Anyone else had problems with these guys?

How many do you need ? once bitten twice shy

seems to me a selective scammer, cheap parts to reel you in
well done hamster, think if you never opened this thread then the people that didnt get refund/parts would of still not got em
3 cheers for hamster (danger mouse)

Well, I bought some parts from them and still waiting....

Still allowed to trade on here tho arent they, under the name Darren@JDM.

Plenty of listings with unhappy people but nothing is ever done about it.

I even got a PM off a member telling me how he'd been ripped off and didnt know what to do so I asked him to highlight his experience with them on this thread to warn others and he refused, wtf!

I seriously dont get the attitude with some people on here, they rant and post about getting ripped off but wont name and shame so it can happen to other people.

As far as I can see, recently its been scammers heaven on here and it HAS to stop. Rant over.

I recently bought some parts from Darren and although I had to wait for them a bit longer than I expected I am still happy.
Very cheap parts and good communication, I would definitely buy from him again.

keep buying and youll be next

Really?
Have you been ripped off by him?

some people have been caught out several times by the multiple user names, ebay, pistonheads etc. Chances are you'll get excuses about postage, this is the common delay for them not sending stuff, then it might arrive, it might not.

What a load of **** is talked on this site at times its totally unreal.No one has been ripped off slashekill you are waiting on a pallet going to sweden of all places it takes longer than a week i have already emailed you and spoken to you on the phone.Does my feedback look full of non recieved negatives ? I guess i must of managed to delete them so no one can see them and i can keep ripping people off.All this on a website i have been a member on for 9 years.Hamster you are just a key board warrior who should keep his nose out .The amount of PM`s i have had about you will be far more than you have had about me.If i have ripped someone off why would they not phone the police i have been a registered busness 13 years,come and see me,do a credit card charge back or any kind of dispute.Its total rubbish your just making crap up.Fair enough i do get delays here and there but it has to be expected things dont always run smooth selling used parts and sending them with couriers especially such large and heavy items

well said

i´m waiting my part since october. no documents about shipping or anything else. i don´t even know for sure is it sent or not.

Good luck mate your going to need it with these cowboys...
come on then darren wheres his parts..... yet another complaint i see..... I can remember those coil packs you sent me 3 were cracked and your reply was i must of broke them by pulling the rubber end off to check them.... its clear to me.. you are a liar.

Hope you 2 have left the appropriate feedback?

i got screwed on ebay mate, and they dont trade with the same username now but yes i did leave a neg,
i got screwed 3 times in total by these cowboys under a different name each time, very very bad company imho

they cant be that bad, after all they have the full backing and support of Tubbytommy and thats worth its weight in 5hite!

talking of sh!te have you found anyone stupid enough to buy your cat c wreck yet?

a little update, no exhaust yet.
