Hey Kris, can you get me a quote for the manual belt headliner.

Kind Regards, Chris

[SuperK]

I still haven't figured out a way to ship the headliner. it's so huge and flimsy...

I said... It's So Huge... And Flimsy...

Come on, anyone?

This is a public forum, and people are free to express their opinions and experiences as they wish, so long as they stay within the rules. By voicing my experiences as they pertain to a past transaction, I have merely exercised that freedom, and broke zero rules in the process.

You don't have to like it, nor agree with it; That doesn't make it any less real. I was VERY dissatisfied with the transaction that took place, and I'm not going to pretend otherwise. Kris has a great deal of positive feedback, as do many members on this board. As I said before, he made a poor choice in our transaction, and I gave him plenty of time and opportunity to make it right. His unwillingness to do so is what prompted negative feedback, and that is reasonable, especially after having been given the chance to make it right.

You can flame me all that you like; That doesn't change the fact that I left honest feedback about our transaction. I'm appalled that this forum has turned into such a maelstrom of cheesy internet memes, derogatory comments, and pontification. Thankfully the worklog section is still a safe-haven for posts actually related to our cars. Again, I will politely excuse myself from the bickering; This is beneath each and every one of us.

Soo.... If I want a curved neck manifold in Canada... What should I do?

[MrMazda92]

A few Canadians are coming down from the MX6/Probe community, and they'll be in my city this coming Saturday... I still have a curveneck, for which I have no immediate use. If you're willing to roll with a third party bringing it across the border, we could work something out to eliminate the ridiculous shipping expenses.

what the... where do you come up with these words? do you just pull up a thesaurus and find one that "sounds good"?
Do you think people actually believe you talk like this in real life?

[Josh]

Have met in real life. Does not actually talk like that...

[MrMazda92]

As it would happen, "pontificate" slips out of my mouth rather frequently, and all too often when describing internet forums.
Although, to be fair and honest, nobody has been so brash in person.

On that note, I'll leave you to your cyber fiefdom!(Google is your friend, here)

[SuperK]

Unfortunately commas are NOT your friend. They scream out in anguish as you punish them into poorly formulated sentences, dashing commas into places they would rather not fit, here. (See what I did there?)
Neither is this my fief as you would have been expunged before I had the displeasure of dealing with you.

You know not how to be fair nor honest judging by your signature where you proudly display a car which you have accredited to yourself but only "own" out of relation and not out of financial success or any other skill of your own. But somehow deem it "fair and honest" to boast as if it was your own.
Nor do you understand what it means to be "fair and honest" in your relationships and I'm sure your baby's momma would agree, unless "fair and honest" is synonymous with alimony. I guess that's what you consider "conflict resolution" eh? I also don't know what the big deal was, really. I mean, friends... make out as friends right?
"Fair and honest" in your history would also include the multiple boards and groups you've been banned from and the reason why.
It is not "Fair" nor "Honest" to attempt to destroy someone's reputation in secret for your own personal gain or from long-standing grudge, especially when it was not perpetuated by the now offended party.
Blackmail is NEVER deemed "Fair and honest"
The "judicial system" of a forum board consists of it's moderators and site owner and your case of our transaction has been presented, over viewed and closed. Yet you still somehow persist. Getting low on money again?
We did however see an abdication of responsibility on their part on this forum board by allowing you to continue to be a part of this shrinking community. You were found guilty numerous times of physical threats of violence to multiple members. I believe you even threatened your own local community members if I'm not mistaken.
And even when you've been given "plenty of time and opportunity" (If you didn't realize, those are your words) but your unwillingness to shut your little mouth (IE, I have left you alone) you without provocation, poorly attempt (as are all your attempts) to manipulate and blackmail for your own benefit.

That's pretty
Fair
and
Honest

Don't you think?
Remember you are not a part of this forum out of your own doing or accord. Again it's because of your relationship "immunity" you formed that preserved your place here.
These are not derogatory comments. These are just facts.
Now big man, how is it you feel "bickering" is beneath you when the core of your being is being dishonest, a cheat and a liar? Do you think you can "politely excuse yourself" from yourself? That'd be great.

This, sir, is what prompted the above negative feedback about yourself and that is reasonable, ESPECIALLY after you have been given the chance to make it right. And I'm not going to pretend otherwise. (Doesn't that also sound like what you said?)

[projectB10]

I avoid getting involved in this sort of stuff like I try and avoid the plague...but this really gets my goat!!!

I'll be open about my own history, 100%. I have(on several occasions now) taken an embarrassingly long time to ship packages out.

You have a very short memory MrMazda92. I am with Kris on dealing with you. How about an "embarrassingly long time to NEVER ship packages out" and obtain shipping costs and provide a price as promosed. I can certainly bear witness to that MrMazda92...promise after promise by you by PM and never delivered on.

. If Kris would like to post regarding his transaction history with me, he is more than welcome to. .

If that Kris doesn't do so...then this Chris is most willing to do so.

The black mark on his feedback is legitimate, and as a previous "customer" of his, I have every right to mention it..

And so do I. You certainly let me down. Not once but many times. I wish now, on reading this %^%^^& ...that I had followed through on my gut reaction to recording my own NON delivery experience ... for my own peace of mind and the enlightenment of others.

Chris

I can say I have sold several items to Mr mazda 92 (aka Blake) and selling to him went just fine. Though, purchasing from him got screwed over. I was supposed to purchase a euro front cover from him. Had many PMs discussing the transaction. We were going to exchange are a meet. Well he ended up not going and found out he had sold it under my nose to another local. Not the kind of business acumen I would expect after reading all of his kris bashing. I would think that if you wanted to receive a level of service, you would also give said level of service.

[SuperK]

Hey blake, you still got your curve neck right?
word is mr wooters bought some parts from you... you spent the money on other things and ran out of money and couldn't ship out the parts to him... so he had to send you more money just to get the parts from you.
Very classy seller tactics.

Now knowing mr wooters, he loves to haggle to you're bedraggled.

So I suggested he contact you and maybe you should go ahead and send him that manifold to "make up" the difference in the money he loaned you.

[MrMazda92]

I'll be open about my own history, 100%. I have(on several occasions now) taken an embarrassingly long time to ship packages out.

You have a very short memory MrMazda92. I am with Kris on dealing with you. How about an "embarrassingly long time to NEVER ship packages out" and obtain shipping costs and provide a price as promosed. I can certainly bear witness to that MrMazda92...promise after promise by you by PM and never delivered on.

As we previously discussed(at great length), I did ship your package out. After waiting for several weeks, snailmail had not delivered. Immediately upon realizing that the package never arrived, I issued a full refund immediately.
When an issue arises, I would sooner take a financial hit than risk offending the other party, as my follow-up actions proved. I can verify this via Paypal records, in case you need the reminder?

A similar situation popped up between whitefinish and myself around the same time. I purchased a TB thermospacer, and some other parts from him. Upon arrival, there was a slit in the box, that had no doubt occurred during international shipping. The thermospacer was missing, and we had correspondence regarding the transaction; He was very understanding, and we agreed on terms to rectify the situation. IIRC, he issued me a partial refund of $10(1/2 of my purchase price for the spacer).

Wootzer is another individual whom I shipped parts to, far later than originally planned. I shipped a total of 4 packages to him, over a period of several months. To apologize for the inconvenience, I included around $100 worth of free parts in the latest shipment.

Anybody notice a recurring theme to these transactions? A good seller can have smooth transactions time after time. A great seller can admit their faults, swallow their pride, and attempt to make amends.

In regards to the tentative agreement with Josh; We never agreed on a set price, and after months and months of "I'll be in town later, later, later..." I sold the bumper to wagZE as part of a barter trade. No seller is REQUIRED to hold an item for an indefinite period of time, while a buyer attempts to amass the funds. The transactions where Josh DID manage to pay for parts, I delivered within 48 hours(bogaut received the spoiler, after I drove considerably out of my way to deliver it), and everybody went home happy.

Just some food for thought: My problem with SuperK was 100% related to his having misrepresented the parts that he sold to me.
How's this for irony?:






Mind you, this engine was EASY to recoup losses for, as the manifold sells for nearly the full asking price. I took a $100 wash on the bumper that Kris sent to me, and the broken H4 headlight took quite a bit of effort to properly repair, in addition to the cost of supplies. Thankfully, I was able to save those from being a complete wash.

Remind me again, how I am the bad guy for having bought misrepresented parts?

I rest my case. If this isn't enough to open a few eyes, then nothing will do the trick. I am not a member of MX-3.com to play who has the brownest nose, I am a member because of our common love for a car that received far too little recognition in it's hayday. Even now, I refuse to reduce myself to backbiting or name calling.
I made a promise to the mod-staff and administrators of this board, and I will not contribute to the destruction of an otherwise tightknit community.

Hopefully we can finally move on, and get back to talking about our cars.

[SuperK]

How's this for irony? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE BANNED FROM THAT SITE.

We already have talked about that engine. Oh wait, you're banned from the facebook page too, you wouldn't know about that.
The guy knew it had a spun bearing before he sold it to me, and said it was drop in ready. He could have let me know, I would have torn the engine apart before putting it in. I didn't want a refund. He attempted to sell a drop-in ready engine that was trashed. That's why I left him negative feedback.



You are such a shithead, you know that? You know how much I sold you those parts for? 300 dollars. SHIPPED. who the hell gets a euro bumper and a set of H4 headlights for 300 shipped? Some dipshit called blake bale. Your sorry little a-- didn't know what JDM or EDM meant. Your ignorance isn't my fault. The headlights were never broken, not on my account They were good all the way up to your door. That little s--- story you made up some months after the transaction. And I have a damn good suspicion why:

A quick confirmation, but the JDM headlight housings can be painted as MoonEggs did his? I believe they were the JDM housings.

Also, does the $100 include shipping?

I wouldn't be surprised in the SLIGHTEST If you ruined something trying to paint the insides of the headlight. But somehow YOU are "fair and honest" in claiming I am responsible for damages. You are... SUCH a shithead.


300 dollars. what the hell did you think you were getting? I still have the pictures of the bumper that I SENT you. and you b---- and complain still. you took a WASH from the parts? how the hell do you take a WASH from 300 dollars for something that should have cost you double? And how does a picture misrepresent parts?

So remind ME again, what was the problem? Something about the foglight holes? Duh. look at the damn picture. They're obviously cut. You SAW that before you bought it. pitted and needed to be sanded? Duh. Look at the damn picture.
I still got pictures of your s--- before they went out.

here are your headlights:


Looks good and plastic to me. They look real good actually. Dang, I sold you some clean lights.

Here was your bumper






Here it is going in the box




now REMIND ME how you are the GOOD GUY in claiming I misrepresented the parts I sent you, when I gave you VISUAL EVIDENCE of the product you purchased?

Oh right, you had to lie about it, then lie about it some more. Then add lie upon lie. As in... the back was broken on a light. That's what you said? MONTHS later. bulls---. There wasn't even a broken tab on it. How do I know? BECAUSE IT'S THERE IN THE PICTURE. Look at how clean it is inside the lamp. no paint peeling, the bulbs were setting in there just fine. Huh.

Now let's quote our conversation in my for sale thread between you and me:

I'm genuinely interested in these:
1x EDM Bumper Cover - $150
1x Front Bumper Reinforcement - $10
1x Set of JDM Headlights - $100
1x Rear Crossbar (Bolts to the bottom seatbelt bolts) - $50


Does the bumper reinforcement work with the Euro bumper?

Will the crossbar work with both 92-93, as well as 94+ seatbelts?

Would you please send pictures of the crossbar sitting where it needs to be installed, and pictures of the bumper cover to my email please? I'll PM you the address.

Remember why you didn't buy the front bumper reinforcement? Because I told you outright that the post was broken and that's why it was so cheap. Because I refused to misrepresent the part for a sale, I attempted to do you right. And to make sure, not only did I have a "broad picture" of it:

I even took a closeup:


Did you actually get the pictures? Everyone did.

Extra Parts Added, I got some exhaust stuff, you can see the exhaust parts in the picture with the EDM bumper, it's in the background. I can chop off whatever part you want and send it your way.

Look up and you can see the exhaust parts in question.




So what's the DIFFERENCE between my transaction and yours?
That's easy.
You knew and saw what you were getting. You left negative feedback because you're a dumb little s--- that wanted more money and more reason to try to attack me.

So you try to bite then run like a coward. You attempt to lash out then try to say, "OK let's talk about our cars now" in an effort to avoid backlash. Doesn't work like that.
So open your eyes, because the only people that are unhappy with any seller in this thread, it's you. And if you are so blind as to see that, nothing will do the trick. Consider our transaction that you claim I "misrepresented" completely debunked. And consider yourself... owned.


I'm still waiting on your apology for your obvious blackmail. Wait, blackmail doesn't contribute to the destruction of an otherwise tight-knit community? Oh...


And the moment you think that I care what you think about me, remember this little snippet of what I said in my for sale thread in April 07 2012

I don't have friends because people LIKE me, I have friends cuzz I have something they want

You are not a member of this community for any other reason than someone took pity on you and refused to ban your a--.
Remember your place. Everyone else knows.

So. Apologize. That is your "conflict resolution."
And once you're done apologizing, you don't speak my name to anyone. That's your continual conflict resolution.
