Hi,
I am glad I just noticed this post. I almost bought something from him about a month ago.saved his email. I needed to think about the transaction a little bit more.
I just emailed him back and told him I will never buy and I will tell my other car friends I have accumulated in the past 30 years also.
Thanks for the heads up

Not sure what he has in parts at the moment, but as you are on the West Coast, Larry Moyer (lemoldsnut) might have something. https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums...emoldsnut.html

So sorry to hear, we all have a passion in restoring our vehicles, work hard to earn our money, and take pride in what we do !!
I'll chip in a $100 bucks for his home address, would be more than glad to pay this dirt bag a visit !!

Scammers
Has anyone had any dealings with a Leroy Great or his "uncle" Mike Downing? They just screwed me for $70 and I don't expect much help from Paypal. Just FYI. First time is on me - there won't be a second.

Depending on how you pay for the parts will depend on the help that you get from PayPal. If the money was sent as a friend and family gift, you lose. If it was sent for the purchase of parts, then PayPal protection will apply. Someone that I know just got screwed by PayPal since the buyer paid as parts, and the seller shipped NOS parts to him. The buyer claimed that the parts were "junk" and PayPal gave him hi money back. As a seller, I would only accept a U.S. Postal Money Order for parts, and then you know that the money is secure. There are too many scam artists working to get money out of honest people, so you always have to be careful whom you are dealing with.

Will do friends and family with people on this forum that have been selling to others on this forum. If not I will cover my tush. Only been taken once and that was not here and me being trusting. Sometimes I am to nice and believe the best in people. It is the way I run my business sometimes it gets me in trouble but most of the time I end up ahead. That is face to face not over the Internet.
