Bought a turbo timer from scoobyste1987 and he sent it to the wrong address...

He u2u'd telling me how sorry he was and he would sort it or refund me ..

Then funnily enough he disappears ..

BUT of course he has a citylink ref so paypal will do **** all !!

Anyone know him ? I'd like my money back


Pathetic ..

 

if the city link reference shows the wrong address paypal should do something.

 

how much did you pay

 

Poor !

Good luck with that mess.

dunx

 

Well he hasnt disapeared as he posted This about 2 hrs ago

 

I think you have the wrong guy(well username)

 

Whoops my bad... Maybe I should get my eyes checked out

Appologies to Scoobyman1982

 

I hate that phrase

 

And what hes going to stop using it because of you lol

Hope you get it sorted Pimmo

 

Doubt it Its just one of those american-isms that grit my $h1t. 'My mistake' sounds much better

 

Thats sick is the one i hate

 

"grit my sh*t"

thats rich

 

...My Mrs is Welsh and her variation of that is "grip my sh*t" which i must add, i never have..

 

 

That depends if i've been on the Guinness or not

 

It shows delivered, I emailed them and they say it was delivered to number 27, when in fact the house number on the parcel was 29 and I live at neither. So technically he can claim for it being delivered to the wrong house.

I have knocked at all the houses around and none of them have had anything and they are old couples, not people you would think would steal.

I've lived in this street my whole life so my name is known! and I'm the only one with a car that resembles something sporty.

Thanks for the PM's .. will chase up

WTF

 

Sorry to hear this mate, but you should be able to do a paypal claim.

 

No mate, they have already refused. I waited a month for them to say no.

 

Have you tried ringing paypal, I've found things get dealt with there and then on the phone as opposed to opening a case and waiting weeks for it to get dealt with.

 

Sorry to hear about this mark! I'm not going to go into the fact you don't actually need a turbo timer at the moment though I think there a bit pointless.

 

I think there a excellent tool to have on your car
If you like the fact that its meant to prolong the life of the turbo

 

just leave it a minute or 2 before switching the engine off, and/or the last mile or two drive off boost.

i love this theory just sit and wait 2mins of lay of the boost
we bought these cars because we love the boost
and i dont know about anyone else but i aint sitting for 2mins when i dont have to

 

so you drive flat out right to your front door I had one in my last car which came with it and you still have to wait 1,2,3 etc minutes wether you do it by the ignition or the timer does it. Do you leave your car running for a few minutes before driving off to warm it up?

Aaron

 

LOL

I live in the country side so yeah i drive it quick home because of the road
yes i let it run on a morning while i have a coffee.

When i get home i get out and lock it and leave it run with the timer for 2 mins.

 

i like to cool my brakes down too, the best way to cool a car down properly IMO is to drive it. Anyway i live in a city so i wouldn't leave it running without me in it, maybe are handy in the country but each to their own. Just a gimmick IMO.

There is threads on this already so i'll leave this thread for Pimmo to try and get his money back.

Aaron

 

Totally agree they are just a gimmick i agree with that but i also do think they help
as for the breaks
Just buy redstuff discs and pads all around and then thats sorted

 

Would City Link have the senders address?

 

I think so as he is a regular customer. Cant see them giving it to me though.
