Anyone know this member from Moparts?
« on: November 14, 2011 - 09:58:34 AM »
I am about to purchase some parts from a guy up in Canada.
His name is Dave West over on Moparts.
About to send money to someone I don't know and that always makes me paranoid.

Anyone have any experience with this fella?

V3S 7Z3 would put him in Surrey. I lived in Surrey for 2 1/2 years and now live in New Westminster (15 mins from Surrey).....unfortentley I don't know of any Dave's into Mopars in Surrey.

I usually pick up the phone and call the seller on a big purchase just to be sure, whether it be auction, ebay, internet, etc....

I lost money after phonecalls. If someone wants to rip you off, they will tell you whatever you want to hear on the phone as well.  Experiences of other members are your best security, but still...

I haven't lost a cent after phonecalls. I guess it's luck of the Draw.

I am calling him.  Been putting it off as I work so late 7 days a week.
tonight I am home and going to talk to him.

Just wanted to ask if anyone had any experience.

I have lost money one time after a phone call.  Not a big amount.
Otherwise phone calls usually work well.

I am purchasing red interior parts.
Not original shape though. Red recovered by just dashes .
Still, that's better than nothing.

Nice guy.

He owns the Cream colored red guts 70 shaker with a 4 barrel Automatic tranny Challenger.
Apparently the only Automatic ever built with a shaker.

Anyway, looks like the deal will go through.
Still curious if anyone knows the guy.

Thanks!!

Ohhh okay. I know the car but not him personally. A friend of mine knows the guy though. I've heard good things about him.
