Turned out to be a deal of a life time. I even sent a guy a money order for a Jr. Dragster 2 years ago, seen his add, talked to him on the phone, sent him the money and just like the engine, waited for it to show up...I have nothing but good things to say about everyone I had boughten parts from over the past 4 years on Racingjunk. And living in Canada I always have to look for a great deal considering the shipping charges. To me, the biggest rip off artist is UPS or FEDEX. I just bought a set of 4:11 Pro Gears off a guy in Mississippi, UPS wanted $83.00 for the shipping, so I paid it, then when it arrived I had to pay them another $86.00 for Brokerage fee's they called it...and they do it all the time. I only paid $130 for the gears and $169 for the shipping, so now I ask you...whos the real rip off artists. USPS is the best and cheepest way of shipping anything (unless you need it today of course... :lol: )

We are not saying that everybody on here is a scammer. So please dont take it that way. What we are saying is that you have to be careful on who you are dealing with. Yeah this guy had an awesome deal go down with his carb. BUT what if he sent it and the guy never said he recieved it or revieved it and never sent the money. We try to let peole know when they sell stuff to recieve money first then ship part. That way if the guy buying the part will either accept it or move on to someone else.
