DO NOT DEAL with fortyPSIrs, been fed lies and have been waiting
The seller and I agreed to building a short block which ended up being $2700 plus i pay for shipping. I sent a deposit to the seller to build a short block for me. The build Involved a 2.4LR, which consisted of Manly Pistons, MAP 156mm RODS, 100mm OEM crank, Powder coated block,Timing comportment's, assembly and all machine work. I sent a $500 deposit on March 30 through Paypal, Then I sent another Paypal payment of $750 for the build on April 5th.
So far $1250 has been paid. Paypal will not dispute the situation because its past 45 days. I kept getting empty responses and the builder only responds to the text when we wants. He wanted me to pay more on the build. I told Him I am not paying until I see pictures and receipts/invoices for the parts that he purchased. He said he didn't have the money at the time to buy the rods to finish the build. I sent another payment through Paypal of of $620 for the rods on June 5th (Because this is within the 45 day period for Paypal, I have this disputed through Paypal) And was promised the block was finally done at the machine shop(which it should have been done much much sooner) Said he would pick it up and have it ready by will be done last week. Now his responses are extremely slow, he has only sent me 4-5 pics. A bare crank, A set of pistons with the part numbers, A timing cover and a dirty block(which was supposed to be powder coated).
I told him is the shortblock complete and ready to be shipped. All I got as an answer was "Yes" umm were are the completed pics? At this point Ive been waiting almost 3 months and have only received a couple of pictures and no responses now. I just want my money back and you can do whatever the hell you want to with this motor that you supposedly built. $1870 has been sent so far.

My lock button on my phone is jammed up, I'm going to figure out away to take pics of all the text and post them.

Not really, Paypal would prefer you submit disputes with them. But you always have the option to submit a dispute with your CC. At best Paypal will be out the money if your CC dispute is found in your favor and they cannot recover the funds from your builder. Subsequently, you will probably lose your Paypal account as well.

As outlined at www.PaypalSucks.com:
1. According to PayPal accepting their ToS (Terms of Service) in effect means you waive
your rights to credit card consumer protection laws if you want to use their service, and
that you may not issue a chargeback for unauthorized use of your credit card and PayPal
account, or if you do, then they have the right to limit your account. Is this legal? We don't
know. But it's how Paypal operates. See my credit card waiver page for more information.
This has happend to me not saying I dislike paypal but I have had a problem in the past

had an issue happened to me where the seller did a chargeback, even though i had already withdrew the money to my bank account. My paypal account ended up being negative and they sent it to collection.

Well it looks the seller hasn't done a thing since him and I talked last week. We came to an agreement that he was suppposed to send the block(that had machine work done to it),crank and pistons $1250 that was already paid.. I gave him the fedex shipping label and he said he was going to send it. Haven't heard a thing from him since.
