Hi all,

     Has anyone in the shark tank ever dealt with fastcorvette38 on ebay? He's selling a rear trw composite spring and mounting kit for $249 and free shipping. This sounds like a great deal.

    The only thing - he has several negative feedbacks related to slow shipping times and non-responsiveness - although most said they finally got their product and it was good stuff.

   Anyone know this dealer?

Thanks

Luke

I never did, but I just looked at the item you are refering too, and in the detail, is clearly says that it will be dropped ship by the manufacturer and it usually takes 10-14 days to ship.
 
Drop shipping explains bad feedback and low price.  If your patient and willing to wait up to 6-7 weeks, then it is a really good deal.
 
I am going through the same right now with "the-direct-source".  Took 4 weeks for the seat belts and still waiting for the radio.  If you know they are drop shippers, then you should expect to wait and have no feedback from the seller, as he doesn't even know the status himself most of the time.
 
I understand the way drop shippers works and I am willing to wait the necessary time because of the cheap price, but it happened in the past that I had to take one guy all the way to BBB to get my money back after 3 months without responses.
