Default Any comments/thoughts on buying turbo kits on eBay?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...yment

The kit seems to be legit, as well as complete. This is just what I need, should I go for an item like this on eBay? I dont trust it too much :/

I wouldnt trust it. he had recently changed his SN for who knows why (bad feedback? fraud?), showing nothing but positive buying feedback (2). Call me paranoid, but when im giving someone my money online, i want to make sure he's trustworthy, expecially when you're putting down that much!

just an fyi when you change your Ebay sign in, it still posts your old feedback. The only way you can start over is to start a whole new ebay account. And they show that you changed your sign in for the next 30 days.

At least find someone with a really high feedback rating before sending that kind of cash, sometimes there is really nice deals but take notice some people dont respond to emails for **** meaning thats how they take care of there business.

Ebay is great for finding quick deals, and cheaper parts heresay, but for big purshases like turbo kits, motors, trannys, superchargers I wouldn't feel comftorable making those transaction through ebay. Just my opinion, but alot of turbo stuff on ebay is crap. There are deals everywhere, like someone said why not go through the H-T FI classifieds?
