Brian, first off do not belittle me before all the facts are known. God would have struck me dead already if I were lying to you.
I moved out of my old house 2-25-08. I was renting and my land lord was not able to come inspect the house before we turned over the keys.
So I call my landlord to ask how she thought the house looked. She mentioned she found a DHL package on my door step 2 days later, and it was from Florida. She said she'd send it to me, and that was over 2 weeks ago.
I wasn't expecting a package, as I usually buy on ebay but I haven't done so here in the past few weeks. In fact I was expecting your switch, and I was thinking it would have came by USPS.
Anyways I shot turbofish38 a message, here's my message:
Hello Eric.
Brian Weaver, over at gbodyparts.com claims he had you send me a brand new powermaster brake pressure switch. This would have happened around Feb 22nd or so.
The reason for this is because Mr. Weaver happened to sell me an incorrect switch. He sold me what appears to be one of the original black switches that somehow managed to slip thru the cracks all these years. I asked Mr. Weaver if he could mail out a replacement grey one and in turn I'd send back the black one. I did this because I was moving at the time and needed to have my car ready for the road.
If the switch was sent, I never did receive the part. My former address was 202 Wapiti Dr. in Spring Lake NC, 28390.
To make a long story short, I was moving and ended up having to drive to a dealer that was closer than gbodyparts, just to buy the correct switch to make the 1000 mile trip west with the car.
Of course now Mr. Weaver and I are in a dispute in which he seems to think I received the part but I know for sure I have nothing.
Is there any way you can check to see if the part ever shipped out? Or was it returned to sender? (we told the US postal service to forward all mail)
Thanks Eric for your cooperation in this matter.
And here's his reply:
Hello, Yeah the part was shipped out on 2-25 to your old address by DHL. We dont use USPS because it's kind of a PITA sometimes. The DHL tracking number is 68568698343 and they show it was delivered on 2-27. If there is anyway you can get ahold of that part and ship it back to Brian that would help in this situation. I'm staying out of it as I know these types of threads can get nasty. I hope you and Brian get this worked out.
Eric
Remember I moved 2-25, I think I was at your shop on Sat Feb 16th? And I called a few days later and mentioned the issue about the switch. I think I was expecting it to show up Tues or Wed, but not the following Wed. I had no idea it was coming from GM. I thought you said you had one in stock, so I was expecting to see one in my mail box in 2 days, maybe 3. And I damn sure wasn't going to risk shipping mine back before a replacement came and risk losing everything. I'm sure you can understand that.
So anyways I call my old land lord back, turns out she never shipped me the package, so I told her I had an angry man on my ass and I needed it asap. She said she'd send it out today. We will see.
So now I am presuming this mysterious DHL package from Florida is the switch.
Also the black switch I have DID NOT sell, and I am not going to re list it now that I am aware of what is going on. In fact it will be coming back to you as soon as I can confirm what's in the DHL package. Or I'll pay you the cost of the new switch when I get it. And you can bet on that.
