There should be enough people that have been screwed by him to shut him down for good.


He has changed from Funk Brothers to Zimmerzllc and from the looks of it the new name is johnp2191 on Ebay. :sly:

That A/C heater box picture sure looks the same coming from Eugene Oregon. ;)

Nice feedback :roflsmiley:

Looks like he has been selling a few things by looks of his completed items. I hope he is done screwing people over and has decided to operate a legit business :dunno:

Just noticed that his Ebay profile has him being a member since 2005 :eek7:
 I know that there are scammers that will hijack an account that has not been active for awhile, so they can fly under the radar. I wonder if this is one of those cases.

WHY do they let him change his username and get a clean start?   :clueless:

He didn't change it. It has been registered since 2005 and never used. He probably bought it or more likely stole it from the unsuspecting owner.

 :iagree:  He probably had the foresight to see a day when his other accounts were burned bridges. Further proof that the %&*# Brothers pre-planned their bottom feeding ways.

Sorry guys, but I realy wonder how much money the Funk's owe everybody.
That must be a huge ammount.

From my side:
200 $ for not received parts
250 $ for buying those parts somewere else
450 $ totaly
The streets don't get wider, if you drive slower !

I forgotten the exact total, huge 10+ page thread somewhere on it but it was around $1,300 USD. However, I got $1,000 back from Visa after a few months of struggle and hardship to convince them it's true. Printed emails, invoices, phone calls, you name it. I would have got a full refund but at the time I received a Paypal refund from Harms Auto at the wrong time lol which somehow means that some of the money stays as "Paypal" funds and not actual credit card funds. So, I'm glad knowing I could have had it back with my own power if it had not been for real unlucky timing from the refund/Paypal. Still, the POS has my money and I bet he's on a street corner waiting to purchase his Mom for the night with it.

How about this...


He has a bunch of stuff on E-Bay now. We all click on "ask seller a question". Instead of asking a question, we tell him how we really feel. It probably won't get him off E-Bay, but it will aggravate the heck out of him.   :misbehaving:

Blah.....that's kind words for the scum he is. I would say the same to any crook, rapist, child molesters or murderer.
They lose the right of respect when they break the law and step over the line. I have no respect for him what so ever.

I think that was a big part of the debate, how did this human turd navigate around and through the fugly waters of negative feedback. He did seem to have some but of course he would respond that the negative feedback was the other persons fault for not knowing what they were bidding on etc. He is a real piece of work for sure.

For me I saw the item, paid for it and never got it. I doubt he even sent me the actual image of "my" part and I doubt 100% that he even tried to send it. But being in New Zealand I can't do much except take someones word for it. Up until then and to date, that is/was my only bad experience of money theft out of 800+ US orders I have made. Not a bad record, there always has to be one arse-crack in the bunch. But there majority 99% have been awesome, a couple of headaches but never any money stolen etc. He'll get his own.....
