To my fellow board members, be cautious of the user (nbridan). After many positive reviews and transactions through this board, unfortunately, I was taken in on a scam by the member nbridan. Nik sent the email below for parts I had posted.

-----
3.6 conversion parts

would you still have these parts?

PART # 993 612 173 DME engine conversion harness $395.

PMS 911 964 993 TC PMS THROTTLE CABLE CONVERSION $290.

I will purchase them from you.
would you take $600 shipped?

Thanks

I sent the PP request to the emial Nik provided and received the $600. Upon receiving the merchandise, Nik filed a disputed claim with PayPal? For what I am unsure. PP would not tell me who filled the dispute. I received notice that it was determined that Nik was unauthorized to use the funds and appears to have used someone else's account. I challenged the claim with PP providing email correspondence, receipt of me sending the goods and stating the fact that not only does Nik have my merchandise, PP is also refunding my monies. Zero protection for the seller! I also found out that since this is peer to peer money exchange there is no protection. (note to everyone)

I have tried to call Nik at the number given but this is an incorrect number. Email was non responsive. So as of now, I am out monies, and merchandise. I could accept this if PP would have at least held funds until merchandise was returned. As it stands this is not their policy as they are claiming Nik is a use someone else's account.
