well i had gotten all my stuff finalized for my pulley swap. predator ordered, rwtd tune lined up, pulley is here, ect.

so i pay monday afternoon for my predator. its supposed to ship THAT day, next day air. auction clearly states, order before 3 pm est and have it tomorrow. tuesday, wednesday go by. no tuner.

email him, oh yea it shipped, will be there tomorrow. thursday has come and gone and no tuner. NOW he is saying, he has NO RECORD OF ME and to please send my info. so now all of this is up in the air.

i won the belt i need on ebay for 10 dollars, and i had to go buy one at the parts store yesterday for $47 to make this happen anytime soon. im pretty pissed, and i may need to fight this guy for my money back. time will tell with that.

guy doesnt answer his phone, replys two times a day so far to emails. first thing at like 8 am est and then at like 11 pm est. no other time. so looks like i either get lucky and find a local predator or pully swap is off awhile again

sorry had to rant

Why didn't you just order your Predator & tune from James as a package deal?

didnt quite work out that way, somewhat spur of the moment thing.

guy offered to put the pulley on for me using his bf puller. so i said ok, ordered predator, and planned to head up and get it all straight there. i wont have weekends off after the next, due to a new job. so i wanted to go for it as soon as i could.

i paid 280 for it brand new off ebay. i thought it was a good price so i bought it, was a high feedback seller as well. oh well i guess, nothing ever goes as planned the first time around.
