Hey all,

So heres the story, i bought "type r" springs and shocks from Lil Man213 a few weeks back, he tells me they are off a 99 type r.

via this thread for the sale

The part numbers on the shocks refer to gsr shocks, obviosly the rear mount is completly different, its the U shaped bracket instead of an eyelet, like the type r.

All i want is my money back, so i sent this pm.


Benard (1:48 PM 8/7/2006): hey man,

Remember me? I bought the "type r" suspension from you?

So heres the deal, i took this suspension over to a buddy at the local acura dealer, to install them, and he immediatly tells me this isnt type r suspension, we look up the part numbers to be sure, and its not. The type r rear shocks have completely different mounts. Anyways...

So you have two options:

1.The local law enforcement agency im sure would love to know about your shady selling practices.

2. You give me my money back plus shipping via paypal or mail, and i send your **** back, and you never scam another person on ht ever again...i will be watching.


he responds

LiL MaN213 (1:51 PM 8/7/2006): umm how about no to both because they came out of my boys type r... mybe you should look at what your buying frist


Obviously they didnt come out of your "boys" type r, because they wont bolt up to a type r rear control arm. i know, i know, i should have seen this imediately, but i wasnt expecting to be scammed, i shouldn't have to be.

Dont buy **** from him, as you see, he's shady and won't negotiate...

 

this picture shows the difference, the left is type r, the right is gsr

 

upp

 

sorrie homie

 

his boy musta got scammed on the type r purchase LOL

 

Haha didnt that kid try selling like a lightly modded GSR for like 16K or some **** like that

Hope you get your money back

 

up, still not solved

 

How much did you pay for them?
