What did you buy? I have the same issues with a set of 348 heads. I leave him phone messages and he has e-mailed me twice promising shipment. I am a cop and I am going to prosecute for theft. He is racing, so he must have at least some money. I joined a site called Iowastockcars.com where Mr. Lauber posts continuously. I will be contacting him there whether I get my heads or not. I'm sure he would be thrilled to see you on there as well. Maybe his friends do not know what a quality individual Mr. Lauber is. I will be happy to let them know. His profile name is "2badi1". He was on there Christmas Eve. My number is 623-694-2941 if you want to contact me and possibly be a victim in my theft report.

heads
I bought a set of heads from him off e bay. Never again. It took months of phone calls and e-mails. I did finally get the heads. I will never do business with him again. Felt very uncomfortable in the deal the whole time. I think you'll get your heads it just takes months of B.S.
Good Luck!
Good Luck!

He called me last night and accused me of not reading my e-mails. Claims he sent me one Saturday with tracking numbers and that he could not get to a post office earlier due to bad weather in Iowa. Claims he was on vacation and that was why he was not responding to my calls or e-mails. Was a little upset when I told him that I could see every time he was online with iowastockcars.com and that he was full of crap. He claims my heads are on the way. He was also mad that I got a good deal on the heads-what do you expect from ebay? Anyway, I don't think I would buy anything from him again-no matter how good of a deal it was. I am going to visit my sis in Iowa this summer. I may stop by Mr. Lauber's house and say hi.

I contacted the sheriff this morning. Thanks for the info. Make sure you call him and let him know you got your stuff-thats what he wants me to do. Hopefully he got scared and sent mine out too. Apparently there are several more people that are having the same problems with Lauber. I don't think I will buy anything from someone who does not have a paypal account.
