can you guys believe the stuff we have to put as sellers on ebay, after selling almost a dozen and a half of Kokeln pipes I received a negative from a guy claiming they dont fit, does anybody know who Eric Macdonal from Montreal Canada is?

Maybe he bought them for his N/A thinking it would make it faster!

Did he ever try and contact you prior to leaving feedback?

lart951

I wish he had, I would have paid for shipping back to me and issue a full refund as I always do

Perhaps the problem here is EBay...............

Send the buyer a link to rennlist, and he'll find the help that will magically turn the wrong part that doesn't fit into the correct part that does.

Unless he doesn't actually own a 951. You did check to that he's trying to get this to go into a 951, yeah?

Lart, I had the similar problem with paypal a few years backs. At that time I had been selling stuff for about 12 years and had a perfect feedback score and had been a paypal user from day one. I was selling memory modules and according to the customer one arrived DOA even though I tested it before I sent it. Evilbay and Paypal both sent me a letter and even though I refunded the guy the guy his money in less than 24 hours, and before he even shipped the part back, Paypal and evilbay canceled all my auctions and froze my account for 6 months! Was not very happy as I had over $2,000 in my paypal account.

Since this part wont fit ill give you $100 to take them off your hands. Ill even throw in a Glowing ebay feedback.

I'll give a shout out to Lart. He made good on his word with me and refunded all the money including shipping on a bad part, and this is after I didn't test the part for 2 months!

Ebay people are idiots sometimes. I had a buyer think they could get a domestic shipping rate to Australia???

Guy probably thought he could put them on with the stock AFM and airbox in place.

Paulyy

that's what i think happend also or his just a complete idiot

Sorry to hear Lart. You are easily the best ebay seller to deal with.

Scott H

+infinity.

I was looking at a several hundred dollar brake job but I got some lightly used parts from Lart for a fraction. As much as people want to hate him for parting these cars he is doing a great service for the community.

Rick

That is probably what happened...the auction doesn't state that these won't work with the AFM/stock airbox.

Just curious...he posted negative feedback before even asking about a refund?

lart951

You are right, the auction does not specify that it wont work with the stock air box although I place a picture of the pipes installed but I know my logic is flawed. ALso he has no attempted to contact me yet.

I always expect more than average intelligence from 951 owners, not so much from the 944 crowd which are usually young kids under 18, I believe that if you have made the commitment to own a 951 you must have the intelligence to work in your car or the money(career or business) to provide for the extensive maintenance that these cars required working on a 951 is not your average joe's job it requires certain level of skill or intelligence, obviously I am wrong because this guy is an idiot or perhaps the problem is that he is from ****DUH. Anyway I only have a few kokeln pipes left and to release my frustration I'll let go of this LARTKELN kit with T-bolts $ 5.00 each and black connectors cost me $ 7.00 each for the incredible price of $ 269.99 shipped FOR RENNLIST MEMBERS ONLY that's more than $ 130.00 off the cost of a regular kit without t-bolts at any vendors store dare to check if you wish

Rick

I completely agree with your comments. That's why I've almost completely quit selling stuff on eBay...their policies are very poor and sellers are overly subject to either foolish buyers or buyers who don't demonstrate adequate integrity.
