Are we allowed to do this?

 

Yes if you feel aggrieved with an issue with a seller and have tried to resolve it with them with no luck

 

What if someone has knowingly tried to sell something that isnt the correct product and tried backing it up with a lie?

 

By that definition they are committing fraud, Which is frowned upon, I vote name and shame

 

I wont take the name yet, but someone tried selling me an "sc42" tuebo and claimed that a famous mapper on here checked it over. When I showed the pic of turbo and asked if he did check it over he told me that its not an sc42 also never checked it over

 

If you've got it in writing/e-mail etc. that you were told it was an SC42 and from the mapper that it wasn't etc. then the seller's banged to rights as I see it.

If you haven't then you could have a very public spat on this forum.

I suggest that you provide the evidence to the Mods and then name and shame.

The rest of us need protecting from scams and this is a community that looks after each other, as is obvious.

 

I have the pms from the seller and texts messages from the mapper to prove it all, who are the mods btw? Also im waiting on a reply from him as I asked him "are you sure this is an sc42" and I havnt hearf anything back from him yet and hasnt been online since last night. Im giving him a chance to tell me what the truth is before I take this further. Luckily I never sent him any funds as I was abit doubtful as he was ready to let the turbo go at a really cheap price so bells rang and I messaged mapper to confirm if he. Was telling the truth.

 

Looks like you've a pretty watertight case there then.

I'm not sure who is a mod.
The easiest way to find out is to sling in a naughty word I suppose

Sorry, being serious perhaps it would be useful to start a topic asking for 'Who is a moderator'.

 

Give us a name or he may try and mug another member off.

 

Your not a newby now looking at your post counts

So name and shame
You might save someone else on here
And of course the scooby community have had many good results in getting problems sorted over the years

Naming and shaming if nothing else speeds up a response from the seller or other side of the problem.....

Either put up or shut up!

Looks like an FP Green turbo to me......... with the ID plate removed


Shaun

 

Whats a FP turbo? Sorry for the noob question

 

I would say that it's an early SC40 Turbo. How much is he offering it to you for?
