Default I think I might have been ripped off?

Can anyone help?

I brought a set of 4 pots off a user called "bootneck" a couple of months ago, but I've heard nothing but some excuses....?

He hasn't been on snet that much, but he had some posts, so thought he was ok? I paid via Paypal but never got them....

He did finally reply and said they were sent late, but still nothing and no reply...

I know I've been a little silly, but is there anything I can do?

Thanks

Ian

Not being critical but the guy only has 13 posts so not exactly a long term member

I think they try to resolve the matter first don't they and then, once that fails (which it probably will), then they seek to give you your money back - as for being silly or whatever...... we all started with zero posts at some point - just some people are messers - wouldn't mind - we just sold a set of 4 pots calipers and discs

Hope you get it sorted - if all else fails - get Nate on the scent - he'll track him down and we can all hound him

Think I've been ripped off as well, not for a huge amount but it's still annoying. I'll give them until the end of the week before I lodge a dispute
