WARNING Full Throttle Marine Hialeah FL. ACCOLADE'S FOR EBAY.
Carlos Diaz of Full Throttle Marine
I purchased a set of Mercury Kiekhaefer K-Plane 280S Trim Tabs Item# 120846587604 on Ebay. Seller was Carlos Diaz of Full Throttle Marine, Hialeah, Florida. I paid $US1400 for the planes and $US200 shipping from Hialeah to Paramount CA 90723-3921.
Moneys paid via PayPal all good. Then some problems with understanding the delivery address. Finally when it was obvious the planes had missed the container I contacted Carlos wanting information on the shipping company and a shipping/tracking number. Carlos didn't supply either the shippers name or a tracking number and the Planes never arrived in CA. Finally I complained to Ebay.
EBAY investigated and also found that Carlos couldn't/wouldn't supply information to allow Ebay to confirm shipping to CA or recover the planes.
EBAY HAS FULLY REFUNDED MY COSTS OF BOTH THE PURCHASE OF THE PLANES AND THE SHIPPING COSTS.
A huge vote of thanks to Ebay. I don't know if they will be able to recover the money from Full Throttle Marine, but what a great guarantee and service they are now offering to help protect buyers using Ebay, from these scammers.
And a message for Carlos. Grow a back bone and become a man.
So guys please be wary of Full Throttle Marine, Hialeah, Florida, not good people to be doing business with.Wellcraft Nova 230 XL, 300hp Johnson.

Does anyone else have history of dealing with this business. A young friend of mine is about to buy a 36' Concept w/ Verados from them. Should I warn him?

Contact Ebay with his info
Tell your buddy to address this debacle, have him explain and let him know he lost a sale due to his dishonesty.
Oh, By the way, Congrats smokin' Joe!
Glad you got it taken care of and didnt have to absorb the loss...Last edited by rockman69; 03-06-2012 at 02:11 PM.

There are so many Mickey-Mouse, fly-by-night marine shops in Miami.

If this guy Diaz will shaft someone for a relatively poultry $1600, what message does it send about his business. I note on a google search that Full Throttle Marine has a director of the company listed as one Carlos Diaz. You go warn you friend immediately, that is the purpose of threads such as this.

Ebay has all the information, it was them who made the connection between Diaz and Full Throttle Marine. Diaz had only told me that he worked in the marine industry.
Just real pleased I did the business through Ebay, all it ended up costing me was time on the computer. Stupid thing is I still need some K planes, I told Ebay that if possible could they locate the planes advertised and payed for, the refund was a last resort option.

When I got in this evening I was advised by email that this thread had seen some action including comments by Carlos Diaz from Full Throttle Marine. I am not sure what is going on but I certainly would like the opportunity to read and reply.
