Brad Waters-mrgoodwrench
Anyone ever have dealings with Brad Waters? He lives at 251 Colter Rd
Maryville TN. I called him about an intake he had listed on RJ .He told me he didn't accept paypal.Only certified check or money order.I sent him postal moneyorder on 6-20-07.I called I beleive on 6-25-07 talked to his mother
asked if had received the money order ,she told me he had.I assumed I would be getting the intake any day.That day hasn't come yet.He has an ad for a preditor carb posted # 910939 His user name on RJ is mrgoodwrench.I may be freaking out too soon -it may be in the mail.My problem is, No one will answer the phone any more when I call,maybe someone from a different area code could jingle his phone
(865)982-6003

I sent a message to Brad, asking him to explain what has happened.
It may be he is ok, and it is in transit. The 20th of June until today is not a long time to not get your intake compared to some others.
Still not answering his phone is odd if he does indeed intend to honor your deal.
Since this was a postal MO if he is scamminh you, you have some good recourse, mail and internet fraud are severe crimes.
Let's see what Brad has to say though before you jump the gun.

Well I sent Brad a message on 07/07 and he has not replied to me or to this forum.
I also called the phone number you put up and got no answer.
To me that can mean 2 things, either he is gone on vacation with his mom, or he is not being honest and straight up.
I will check again later and try to call again tonight.

Comming here and explaining the situation makes you a more respected seller, and clears up the questions ask by the buyer. thanks for doing that, i assume the buyer feels the same way and will report when he recieves the manifold.

Brad,
Thanks for coming on here and clearing things up.
I do not think anyone jumped the gun, but 1greenbird was just concerned.
We did advise him to hold on a few more days and I did send you a couple of messages.
Your coming on here and explaining what happened will put all of our minds at ease. It looks like that storm passed and you were able to get on your pc.
Thanks again
