Screwed Again!

[boonman]

Not very happy right now. I am building a transmission for my Small block S-10, and I found what appeared to be a great deal on Ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...item=2445913573

 

Clearly pictured is a B&M transpak, and the line

Not all boxes say TRANSPACK--but they are all the same internal parts.

leads me to believe that while it may not be in the correct packaging, I will still be receiving the alleged transpak. Well, I bought into it, got the package yesterday, and opened it up to find a B&M shift improver kit. This particular kit, item # bmm-70239 and can be found at http://store.summitracing.com/default.asp?...h∂=bm-70239 for $30.95. I paid $50 + shipping for what I thought was a transpak. Difference being that transpak is much more valuable. it allows manual downshifting at any speed, and better shifts than the improver. It can be found here:

http://store.summitracing.com/default.asp?...h∂=bm-70235

for $59.95. I figured I would save a few bucks, however, it looks like I took it in the ass on this one. Kind of pisses me off. Shady people. And to come from a tranny shop nonetheless, I wasn't very woried. Now, I am concerned. And very pissed off. Just needed to vent a little, and bring yet another shady dealing out in the open.... It would be like thinking you are getting a set of 34's for your shee, and getting 30's or something. It will still be an improvement, however, it is not what you expected....

See stick with Banshee's and you wouldnt have this problem as much...

 

For reals cuz, sorry to hear it. You email them bout it? What did they say?

[Justintoxicated]

did you pay it on a credit card?

 

if so you could probably dispute the payment, I have had to do that a few times. Or report it to paypal. it sucks but you can't let people get away with things. False pictures are BS.

What's up with this boonman?

Update. I spoke with the dude over the phone. He called me after I sent him an e-mail stating how dissatisfied I was. he informed me that the transpak is the same kit as the shift improver kit, only the transpak comes with a filter, and the kit does not. So, dude gets the improver kit, buys a filter for $4 and sells them. I still don't know how he gets $50 when they can be had for $31. Oh well. I am still a litle unsure about it, but I won 2 other things for the same transmisison, and he is gonne eat the shipping cost on them. Oh yea, I didn't receive the filter either in the box. So he is gonna send on out wiith the other two items.
