Default Scammer Alert F4Bones is not to be trusted!

This guy is not to be trusted, he sold me a steering trim claiming it was new and unused. It was in horrible shape

I sent you the EXACT item in photos. . . please ignore this troll with 17 posts. This was priced at $200, and it was clear in the posting that it was removed for an upgrade - not factory new never mounted.

Whether it’s $200 or $2, it doesn’t matter. When you market something as “new” most would expect it to LOOK new. I’d be upset as well if I bought a “new” product and it came blemished.

The ad clearly says new?

I don't think I'd call you a scammer, but what's up with the misleading ad?

Yeah says “new oem “ …. To me that better be flawless or have any damage specifically called out and pictured.

Just so everyone knows - this is complete BS and this guy is a troll. Here's the photos of the ACTUAL unit he received - it was near perfect - removed by me from brand new 2023 992 TTS as I swapped to gloss carbon. These exact photos posted with listing, and this is the exact unit the troll received.

Matt Carbon, OEM, carefully removed at less than 100 miles

Included center trim

OEM cost over $1,000 - sold it as favor to rennlist member for $200. Guess no good dead goes unpunished.

Why not just give him his money back and sell it to someone else. At $200 it’ll go very quickly.

You put New OEM, never installed in the description. Should advertise correctly, but you're instead calling him a troll because of his post count. Sad.

Looks pretty good to me. Maybe the OP could post what he received and point out the damage he is complaining of...

This is why I only sell things locally now...Ive been burned one time too many with unscrupulous buyers on ebay who file complaints to get some money back.
