I purchased a steering wheel from him in August of last year from this thread for $110 shipped.
PayPal was sent on August 16. A courtesy PM was sent to him for notification.
Just to make sure I sent him another PM, on August 16 asking him if the Steering wheel was leather. I didn't want it if it was not.
No reply was received.
On August 17, I sent him another PM, praising him on the impressive dyno numbers that he had posted on his website (He and I were running the same turbos at the time). His reply: "No, I just put the specs from precision's site down there. You're the second person that has asked, I may have to change that. The steering wheel went out today. You should have it in 2-3 days. "
Although he didn't answer my question about whether or not the wheel was leather or not, I mistakenly assumed it was.
A week or so later, the steering wheel arrived. As I was busy at work, I peeked in the box (to make sure that I received a steering wheel, and not an old pair of shoes or something), took it home and put it aside. I actually forgot about the steering wheel until about 1 week later. Upon closer inspection I notice that the wheel is NOT leather.
On August 30, I sent him the following PM:
Joel-
I am very disappointed with the steering wheel that I bought from you.
The steering wheel is probably off of a T-Type as advertised, but not a REGAL T-Type as I assumed.
I sent you a PM on August 16th asking if the wheel is leather. I received no reply from you, although you read my PM, so again I ASSUMED that it was leather. Unfortunately, it is not leather, but only molded to look like it.
Therefore, although the steering wheel is in good condition, I have just spent $110, on a NON-LEATHER steering wheel. Non-leather steering wheels are not worth this much IMO, and this does not sit well with me at all.
I apologize for the fact that this is a week later, but it was only today that I had a chance to do a closer inspection of the steering wheel. When it arrived last week, I just opened the box quickly and peeked inside. The box just sat in the garage until today. Again, I simply assumed it was leather.
Bottom line is, I am ASKING if I can ship this steering wheel back to you, at MY expense, and get refunded the money that I sent to you via PayPal. I will even cover the shipping cost incurred by you, to ship the steering wheel to me.
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Geoff
I received no reply.
I sent him the same PM again on September 25.
Again, no reply.
I had pretty much shrugged this one off as a deal that I got swindled on. Kind of like a creditor, who charges off a bad debt.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fast forward to this week, as I decide to give him another chance to respond.
I send him the same PM AGAIN on March 30, 2005. It was read by him on the same day.
