yeah, I know the feeling. I think good advice as given before is that look at the see the sign up date, see the number of postings, pay thru paypal and then decide how you want to go forward.

I think that alot of folks sign on to various forums because they have some items to sell, and then vamoose when they're gone. they come across as if they own the car, but underneath it you can sense they either don't, or they've got some supply of parts for it and they could care less about the car or it's members on a forum.

I have a feeling that most of the folks on here I would implicitly trust based on comments, involvement etc. But then a newbie shows up, and that is somewhat automatically granted without the benefit of experience. Says alot of good things about you!

BTW, it is a federal crime, and you can report it to the Post Office General because it did cross state lines. trust me on this, as that happened to me on a boat from FL. I got all my money back over time, but I DID get it back. It was either that or I told his attorney I would be filing federal charges. How would you like to pay me back? LOL!
