Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Anyone know or have had dealings in the past with this eBayer. Seems to carry OEM items that are well priced. But only has 8 feedbacks.

Thanks
I actually just bought something from him. He shipped the day he recieved my paypal. I am going to recieve my item tomorrow and I can comment further on how he packed it and whether everything is legit. So far so good though.
What did you buy? We were negotiating on the GT3 bumper and I just want to make sure the good deal I got was legit.
PM me and I will share some of my findings with you.

I buy lots of things off eBay and I went and looked at his previous sales....all Porsche related items....all delivered as promised and only one guy groused about some scratched lenses on a set of OEM boxter headlights.....I'd say I wouldn't have any problem dealing with him.
Have you done business with them before? I buy quit a bit on eBay too, I just have a bad feeling about this one. Especially when he insisted no local pick up.
I'm basing my assessment on the previous transactions he's had with other buyers and come thru each time. Insofar as no local pickup is concerned....I didn't see that stipulation, but I guess you can read negative into that by inference that he doesn't want anyone around his shop or whatever. Some guys who sell things on eBay don't want folks around their house looking at their cars, contents of their garage etc...can't say I blame some of them.....but his history goes back to October 06, and any major grouse would have surfaced by now...so I don't think I'd have a problem with him.
It may also be possible that he asked for higher shipping for added profit - start with a low starting price to draw interest but make it up with shipping profit. I had done it before on ebay and I think it's a pretty common strategy.
My bumper is at the local UPS depot. I will post some updates tomorrow / over the weekend.
Okay, I recieved my bumper today. This guy seems legit. It did arrive in two days as promised, it was polyurethene, it had a real part number. I will test for fitment tomorrow when I put in the third radiator. However, I test fitted it against the cup lip spoiler, and all 15 mounting holes match up perfectly.
Update: I test fitted the bumper and it fit like a glove. It took me 2 minutes to put it on. All mounting holes aligned perfectly. I can't speak for any other of his products, but I would say he delivered 110% for my purchase.
