ARRGGH im about to drive down (err ride my bicycle) to atlanta and get my refence sensor myself with lethal force! whatever, DONT buy anything from them, they suck! RANT mode Off...

Live and learn Greg.
Hope it works out without too much crap that you have to go through.

I went through the same thing many moons ago when there were not nearly as many vendors out there.

Please don't leave it at that. Be sure to contact the eBay customer service people if you haven't already so other consumers don't end up in your situation.

That supplier has no business listing items for auction and not fulfilling the sale. That's fraud, plain and simple.

As for my opinion of them, let's say they've been up there on the "never buy from again" roster for some time <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />

That place is somewhere near me... I've been by and will NEVER go again. Avoid them like the plague.

With the reputation they've earned, I'm amazed that they stay in business. The best places I've dealt with are Paragon, Pelican, and Zims. No problems with any of them. Paragon is a model of what a business should be.

yeah, i will continue to follow through with the complaints... i have found a much better place, the parts bin is really good. <a href="http://www.partsbin.com," target="_blank">www.partsbin.com,</a> and the reference sensor is alot cheaper 69 and free shippping over 50$, DARRG live and learn is right for sure! I might see if i can cancel the ebay order and get my paypal money refunded then go to partsbin... but stay the hell away from autoatlanta, even if it means constructing the part yourself out of a roll of toilet paper or something... ahhh venting complete
