Never heard from him.
i purchased a chrome bore motor and was told it had good chrome. So I set up shipping and when I received it it was frozen solid, so bored could never have been checked( which I asked him to do )
motor had been submerged at one point and never drained. I sent him a pic of motor and crank and his reply was that wouldn't even make a good mailbox post.
then was told he was selling it for a friend of his son's, I asked for the guys number and was told he did not want to involve him and would take care of it.
i asked when and was told it was his off season and he would reimburse me soon. Well seasons came and went, I saw him buying and selling stuff with never a thought about me. I contacted him twice over the last 2 years as I have 760.00 invested and all I salvaged was a rusty flywheel.
Yes, things happen but good people take care of their mistakes and LIES!
i sent him a pm and he never responded, big surprise. Not sure what to do as it has been a while, I guess no honor really means no honor!
he has even went as far as to offer a part to someone I was working with at I lower price than I quoted, I was like wow! Adding insult to injury!
All I can say is get good pics and personally I would not take stock in what he says, just my experienceSOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE SLINKYS, KINDA BORING BUT STILL FUN TO WATCH IF YOU PUSH THEM DOWN THE STAIRS

By the way, that rusty flywheel hangs on the wall at my shop as a reminder to never trust him again.

Skater mike is the perfect example of a con-man. I only hope I don't come across any cockroach like him in life or on this site. But I am sorry to hear what he did to you. Let's go find him and feed him to the fishes.

Shipping was 160 motor on a mid was 600, was basically buying the block and crank, all wiring was cut so electronics were trashed, mid was a 25 so it was junk, no heads, I was buying the block and rotating assembly problem was it had not rotated in a long time. I asked for motor to be spun to check chrome in other bores and was told they looked good, hell pretty hard to check when it won't turn over. I freaked when it was delivered, I was told then on the phone he would take care of it, guess he got amnesia, lol

pennman The money is low enough that it may not be worth a visit. Then again there is the satisfaction factor. I tell people who I haven't delt with before what my father taught me " the reciprocate of this hand shake is a gun shot"! I had one low life walk away from a deal!!!! Collecting money is an art not for the faint harted and I HATE seeing these stories on here. We members are here for fun and recreation and not to be preyed on. Keep on him as much as possible and I wish you the best! JMO Gary
