ATTN TigOLDBiTTies...This isn't funny...Did I get scammed by him..

Ordered Evo 9 turbo compressor side with FP 18 psi wastegate. Today the box arrived with about 50 CD's inside. I don't know what to think as i'm pretty upset right now. He communicated so well and has feedback???? 450.00 just gone, but i did pay through paypal.

May be i'm just jumping the gun and someone in the post office stole it. But I need this solved ASAP


After further looking into the situation. I AM NOT BLAMING TigOLDBitties. The question is how we get out of this happy. The package wasn't insured.

Wow, that's dirty. Hope you paid with CC thru Paypal as all the seller will have to do is provide a tracking number that shows delivered. You might need to file a dispute with your CC.

Maybe someone at the post office stole it. He was communicating with me just recently, but the package did sit 3 days at jacksonville, FL post office before it left.

I did pay with my CC card through paypal. I want to give him a chance before i do anything drastic

Get your paperwork together, go to court and sue right away. Let them decide if the post office did in fact switch it, don't waste time.

I know its kinda stupid but can you get fingerprints from the CDs?

Its pretty messed up if this ended up happening because of a dumb *** post office employee. Maybe I'm too trusting, but I just don't see an EvoM'er listing pics for a turbo and then going thru the trouble to send you CDs.

What is the original weight of the package, and what does it weigh now? A turbo has to weight a hell of a lot more than some CDs.

Shipping was 13.00 so it had to have some weight in the box size it was.

No weight is listed anywhere

Sounds like a scam , there was an infamous guy on club rsx that sent a guy a box of bricks instead of a quaife diff.
