LONG STORY!!

I offered a moto meter rally panel here on thesamba. Price was 1500$ shipped.
Carl Fuji contacted me. He got the moto meter rally panel for 1200$ shipped.
Before we made the deal he got a picture of the backside of the gauges.
I send out the panel with ups. after 4 days it arrived at his place.
Then i got this email:

dear thomas, thanks for shipping the item as you saidand i will leave you good feedback. the only problem i have is that you didn`t say that the gauge panel was a repop and the temp gauge has been taken apartand doesn`t fit into panel,bracket is a repop,and its a motest gauge. clock has no bracket, knob doesn`t turn dial, bulbholder is smashed.bottom line is i want to return this item.let me know. carl

the ad said that the panel was a reproduction, he also saw the brackets on the picture i send him by mail, he also saw the the clock had no bracket. i offered him a spare moto meter gauge cause of the one that is of motest. but after i while i found out that motest is moto meter, so nothing wrong with the set up and i offered him a new bezel for one of the gauges for free.

he stayed at his point and wanted to return the deal.

i thought i made nothing wrong and did not want to return it.

he contacted paypal , he made the payment by credit card, and his credit card company returned the payment. it took long time with paypal but after some month they took the money from my account. i contacted carl that he should send me back the panel cause he got back his money. After another long time i got an email from carl that he send back the gauges and panel, and that he has no bad feelings towards me.......

today i picked up the panel and gauges at the customs. i opened the package and was totaly shocked, both little gauges (temp and fuel) are missing the screws for the bracket, the temp gauges is missing the bulbs and the condition of the clock is totaly different to the one i send to him. i check the backside and that made clear: he had sen an other clock than mine!!!!! GOOD THAT I SEND HIM THE DEATIL PICTURE OF THE BACKSIDE OF THE GAUGES in february, there you can see it!

check out the pictures:

here is the classified ad picture:

the backside of the sold clock one picture also carl got with all gauges

Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.


backside detail check it out and compare it with the clock i got today

Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.


and here the pictures of the clock i got today:

Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.


Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.


you see the differences between the clocks.
i gave carl the chance to send me the correct clock and the missing parts on the two other gauges. if he does not clear the situation i will try other thinks (contact police in the twon, his credit card company paypal etc.)

i just wanted to say beware of carl fuji and his fraudulent manner.
if anybody knows him, tell him that he has to clear the situation!!!

i am very angry about that!!! Evil or Very Mad

just to make clear. you could ask yourself why the seller is editing/updating his ad although he sold the item 2 month before.
i only deactivate my ads after selling the item so that i can check out how much i got for something at that time. i have to edit the ads from time to time otherwise they will be deleted and i do not have to check them anymore.
i did not edit it to change the words in the description or change picture or something like that.

thanks

After years of not responding to his post, I finally will reply. after dealing with all his back and forth drama, I just didn't want to deal with his b.s. And that's why I didn't respond, I just wanted him to go away, period. if you want the whole story, please contact me. I don't feel that airing this on a public forum does anybody good.

Just completed a deal with Carl for some King Crabs Fuchs wheels which I was selling in the classifieds section.

Carl is definitely one of the good guys. Communication was fast, precise and reliable. Funds were transferred quickly. In my eyes that makes for the perfect buyer.

I would definitely do business with Carl Fujio again.

Carl bought a nice pair of eyebrow headlight lenses from me. He paid promptly. Communication was easy with him, so we had a smooth transaction! He also emailed me, when he received the parts after a long way from Hungary! Hope we can deal in the future again! Thanks. Attila
