Beware- Porsche fleabay scam..another ripoff from Automobile Atlanta
Just purchased "Weber 40idf troubleshooting guide on fleabay from "Lionel Atlanta." It says they "put this guide together years ago."
When I get it I see "Automobile Atlanta" on the front page. The rest is a photocopy of the Haynes manual I have on my shelf. See, I read the first book, so when I started reading their "guide" it seemed vary familiar.
If I had known who I was buying from I would not have bought. Just thought anyone else looking at buying would want to know. I tried to get the fleabay to shut down their ripoff auction but they are continuing to sell them/
btw- they will give me a refund if I ship it back to them and eat the shipping. Wonder if there is anything else I can do for them. Maybe drive down and clean their shop? Help them copy some patented parts? Babysit? I dunno.
