What should I do?

[KariH]

Yes his latest post written on march 2020, but his log shows when he was logged in, until november that logging data disappear. Before that I sent several PM to him with no issues, but now I can’t.

Also, he knows my situation and I think it Is better to ask me what to do with motor, but he dis not contact me.
I really hope he Is ok and I can solve this with him but I just don’t know How to contact him.

You payed for an engine 4 years ago and told the person you bought it from to hang on to it until your health gets better? Is this correct?

[KariH]

Actually I paid the engine 2015, but our last success contact was 2016. Yes he knows my health issues then. He wrote me it’s no hurry to arrange delivery then, but of course four years Is long time. Anyway, I thing maybe I still own the engine and tuner.

If you payed for it you own it. How did you pay for it?

[KariH]

I paid the engine via Paypal.

Since you used Paypal you will have his email address. Also if you don't know his name and home address contact Paypal let them know your situation and see if they will give you his name and home address. Then you can try and contact him and if all else fails you have the information to give to the police and see if you can get a result that way.

I'm not sure it's reasonable to expect someone to store & care for you stuff for 4 years if you haven't been in contact during that time. I'm junking out some stuff that's been "stored" here for years because I'm selling/moving and have no idea how to get in touch with the people that moved away and left their stuff here.

"Actually I paid the engine 2015"
That's going on 6 years!!!!!

[KariH]

I do have his name and email address he using then. Unfortunately he did not response Messenger .

I think it Is easy to contact me PM as earlier if he had to move or need space. He told me then he have a lot of space in his company and it is no problem to keep the engine there. But we both did not know How long it takes to come a day i willl and can use the engine and boat.

So if someone know him please tell him I like to solve this, likely without police.

I paid only the motor, not for shipping then. He told me he will check a box dimensions and weight for freight company but I never got it. But plan was I arrange shipping from here and pay to freight company myself.

I sold on Ebay a Chissler 150 stacker engine block to a guy in Canada....2011..... held the block for 9 years......after a falling out because of boarder problems....I sold it to an other buyer. Dealing with out of country buyers/sellers can be a hassle. KariH......did you buy a emity block or a short block?

[roadkill636]

To answer the 1st post.
I'd say you are out your money.
Nobody should hold a product for 6 years in storage awaiting shipping payment.
Its harsh but its real
