We agreed on the price of a part advertised by Ari and the deal went through flawlessly. Once I paid the ad was taken down and shipment was done very quickly. The package arrived safely within 2 days. Applause
I am most happy with this deal and I am sure I will be a returned customer for more parts from Ari ~ norcal relics.

I bought a small part from Ari. It arrived in a decent amount of time and he even sent me a cool sticker! There was a problem with the part and he immediately refunded my money. Although I wish it was the correct part for my bus I'm sure I will buy from Ari/NorCal Relics again in the future!!
Thanks again Ari and I will keep my eyes on your ads 👍

I answered an ad for a Bosch 019 Distributor for $80.
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=1813584

The text read:

Description:
This is a cast iron blue screamer Bosch 019 that was made December 1970. It is in good condition but will need a thorough cleaning. The advance plates are sticky but no excess shaft play. It is 0231129019 and I am asking $80 plus shipping.


Here's the picture from the ad:

When i got it I could see the inside was rusty and proceeded to take it apart and see how bad it was.

I emailed Ari 3 days ago and have never heard back.

Got it today and wasn't expecting it to be so rusty, in fact the inside is still wet. I was able to get it apart but some of the internal parts are so badly pitted that they have to be replaced. If I knew the internals were that bad, I would of offered you a lot less since its not rebuildable as is. Luckily I should have the needed parts.

Here's what the inside looks like. Some of it was clearly visible without taking it apart.


I would of expected at least a reply of some sort... even a "sorry, I didn't know" would of been nice.

In the end I was able to replace the rusted parts with spare parts I already had and it works like new. i just wish I knew its true condition.

I guess next time i'll have to ask for pictures of the inside before purchasing.

I needed a few parts for my 68 bus - Eric had them, in great shape for a great price! Fortunately, I live close enough to pick up the parts in person - he had them ready to go when I showed up. Eric's a straight up guy - I will do business with him again - thanks, Eric!
