Ebay Buy X3Racing Terrible

Post by jbreese00 »

I bought some Euro's from them a week before my birthday (February 1st) I received them fine and all, but however within a day of buying them they gave in to the common problem of vapor. No biggie I sealed them. After a week of that, more vapor, So I emailed X3 and they agreed to take them back. So I sent them in and insured them. They arrived around March 20. So between now and then I have sent them 3 emails not once getting any attempt at a response. So there you have it guys and gals. Bad product, and they didn't even try to make it up to me. What looks like a good deal isn't always one...
Thank You, Justin

I bought my altezza's from these guys, and I haven't had any problems at all. Yes when it rains or is really moist a little moisture does show up inside as you were saying, but as soon as it gets warm outside it all goes away, so I don't see a big problem.

only thing I can say is, in the future ALWAYS get a Phone number where you can reach a real person, before you send any money. Just in case.

Since this guy does all his selling on ebay, you could take it up with them and let ebay try and track him down to give you a refund or the tails back.

All you have to do is drill a couple tiny tiny holes in the bottom of you're lights. Problem solved, no more mositure.

Well all of you thanks. I mean I didn't have a problem with them either until I tried returning them. I will call X3 tomorrow after I get out of school, then if that doesn't work, to the credit card company I go. In the future I will seal and drill small holes, because obviously sealing wasn't enough...
Thank You, Justin
