    Pi$$ed off
    « on: May 14, 2008 - 05:40:47 PM »
    I am restoring my 70 Challenger. I have purchased many parts from here, moparts and ebay. I live in Canada so I have parts shipped a US parcel service 1 1/2-2 hours from my home. I drive there several times a year to pick up parts. It is a hassle crossing the border and driving with todays gas $$ but it is necessary.as many people won't ship to Canada. Well, today i just got home and the Challenger grill i purchased is far from mint, the sGrant teering wheel I picked up last time had a big nick in it so a replacement was supposed to be sent-it wasn't and another parcel didn't show up. The grill really has me PO'd, even if I send it back I will lose my shipping and taxes paid at the border. Too bad this sours me as many of you guys have given me great deals to great products-sorry for the rant, but argh. I will file with paypal and hope to recoup some $$. Thanks :villagers:

    certain pieces are tough to describe as people have different views of what condition a part is.....

    Those 70 grills are a real pain to find in decent shape. The one on my car was stripped when I bought it on E-Bay. I paid $100 less for it than another grill I threw away.   :stomp:  Yes, not everyone has the same idea of what "mint" is.   :pullinghair:

    Yup International shipping is fun eh! I love it when an item is backorderd but they dont let you at the time. Every shipment has a packing slip for the entire order so I pay taxes on the full order on every box. Somtimes it's two or three times I pay for the same shipment! :swear: :banghead:
