Beware
This is from one of the Olds Facebook page. I hope the link works to get this info out.

Warning to All: Omish John / John Witt
Don't buy from without Paypal or Credit Card I bought A "rebuilt starter" for high dollar that was not rebuilt in fact the windings were shorted, the bushing were worn and it would not spin. I had to have it rebuilt by a local shop and it now works great I have attempted for several weeks to get him to respond via messenger, text and email. Sent him photos of the crap windings and he has not replied at all. See attached and the bill I sent him. He doesn't want to use Paypal because they will protect you from scam artist and trust no longer is worth the loss I am considering filing mail fraud charges depending on the protocol required.
So to all beware!

Appreciate the tip. We need to out all those that think the rules do not apply to them. A good starting point it to effectively use the Buyer & Seller Feedback like you did to share your negative experience.

That was not my negative experience but one from a fellow Olds guy who posted it on FB. I don't and will not do any business with the said seller.
