I recently purchased some civic type R pistons from ebay and it arrived quickly, but then when I opened up the box, the pistons were not wrapped up individually with the newspapers that it came with, that's weird! I heard the box klanking, like the pistons were moving freely, so I opened up the box and found that they were damaged due to improper packaging, or suspicious post office activity went on and they didn't wrap the pistons back up correctly, this frustrates me, so my question was, can I still use these pistons, are they repairable, and what am I looking at, I need help? the pistons are skirts have little scratchs on them, and on the side, on top of the piston skirts, some are slightly dented, what to do? what to do? what to do? help me?

 

get ahold of the person you bought them off of ebay from and get ahold of ebay tell them you wnat your money back

if you paid for shipping insurance get ahold of ups or whoever shiped them

 

does anybody know if USPS will do something about this, like give me my money back or replace item, because I sure haven't went through a problem like this, has anybody on here went through a problem like this before and what was the resolution? I need heads up so I can make the right decision and make the right move, I'd hate to blame the seller, because it might not be his fault, and I'd hate to blame USPS because it might not be their fault...I just don't like being a jerk...anybody been through this? and are the pistons repairable?

 

I'd call everyone that was involved from the seller to the shipper. But in all honest the seller SHOULD HAVE wrapped them. I would go to him first and break his *****.

 

damn this happened to me but in reverse. i sold some b16 cams on eBay and sent them through the USPS in those mail tubes. then the buyer emails me all mad saying WTF all you sent me was some poster of a college or something....

so right away i'm like WTF. either A) buyer = liar or 2) USPS jacked my cams.

The USPS was not very helpful in resolving the issue. fortunately i believe the dood was lying and finally gave up when I told him to look at the postage and see how much it weighed and how much i paid, because sending cams versus sending a poster will weigh and cost much more. after that he either knew he wasn't gonna fool me, or knew that if the USPS jacked us, and that he was assed out. shitty story, doesn't really help, good luck anyway.

 

File a dispute. Its the sellers fault for not packing it good.

 

YOUR FROM ALASKA HOLY CRAP! DITTO
