I haven't disassembled the head, there was. .011 gap between cam follower when the cam was at base circle, witch tells me the stem of the valves is bent, a picture wouldn't show anything, its very minimal

Just a heads up on this.

Ive waited 2 weeks on these to get shipped. Robert wont respond to my text so it looks like im gonna ha e to make a claim with PayPal to get my money back unless the heads show up. Im givibg you till Saturday.2 weeks has been long enough.

Still nothing. He sent me a message saying they had shipped last week, obviously they haven't. Shipping from Michigan to Arkansas is 3 days.I sent multiple PMs trying to get tracking #'s and got nothing in return.

I hope you used a credit card... This is really ####ty and you might want to call the local law enforcement around him too if you can pull his address off paypal.

Paypal won't give it out unless you can make a shipping label if you sell the person something. Only thing I can think of is pose as an interested local party on the CL ad and try to get an address out of him that way. Then call the cops with his info.

Don't be so sure, he may just be stalling for time. Common tactic. I'd have already called my bank and charged back the credit card. Let paypal deal with this idiot and get your money back right away.

shady tactics

If the seller is stalling it may be to allow time for the paypal transfer to go to his personal account. I agree with the previous post, call the card company and get your money now.

You gotta love these kinds of people. :livid:

In two weeks time that money is long out of his account. He may be stalling for time to keep it from being frozen if he's in the process of scamming others though. Like I said, charge back that credit card now. Even if you for some reason used a debit card you can still do a chargeback, its just a lot more paperwork. If you used a bank transfer... well... dunno, you might get $175 from Paypal...

I really hope you used a credit card.

I am glad you are getting your money back. For future reference for everyone buying parts online:

Here are some ways to help prevent this type of fraud.

1. Buy from sellers with positive feedback or at least a minimum amount of posts that shows they are real members, not just someone who joined to sell parts. That phony seller had NO posts that were not related to parts being sold.
2. Buy from sellers that are active members, that have a reputation to lose. Somebody that sold their ride six months ago and are selling left over parts may be perfectly happy canceling their membership after getting rid of their crappy parts. When buying online, the seller protecting their reputation is your only security. Somebody that is never going to post on here again, has nothing to lose.
3. Always ask for more pictures. If they cannot text or post you a photo from the angle you requested, they do not have the product, period. In the original ad, somebody asked for another photo, did the seller post it? NO. Huge red flag.
4. Offer to pick it up and pay in person, or only buy from someone that can post a verifiable address. You can always tell them you have a cousin or another forum member that lives in their city and can possibly pick it up. If they won't let you pick it up and pay in person or tell you their address that is a huge warning sign that they don't have the product or it is totally misrepresented. When they do tell you their address, then just say you want it shipped. No harm done in this little white lie.
5. If you feel that somebody is misrepresenting a for sale item or it is possibly a scam, Call them out on it in the ad but do it nicely. You might look like a d.ck but if it is a scam what it does is send a record that is searchable on the internet in case this is a scam and the seller tries to pull this scam on another forum. Do a search on TFS heads for sale now, and you can pull up this discussion. Somebody else doing research from possibly this same crooked seller's ad on another forum will pull up this discussion and recognize the photos.

Thanks funny coming from someone who has been a member since 2012 has 0 feedback and 4 posts...just sayin.

When I started it took selling 3 items to get my first feedback now my score is 52 but I bet I've made near 100 deals. I'm just pointing out POS feedback number may or may not be what it really should be.

I've had 2 NEG feedbacks one from a guy that didn't know what he was buying even through he saw it in person then wanted his money back because he made a mistake and the other from a guy that I personally never made contact with. Tell me how that happened?
