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?

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.

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'.

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

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