  4. Or still up for trade on some really nice E24 rear seats
  5. I pulled this diff from a 1977 e21. Everything looks awesome and turns smooth. I think the clutch packs are worn and need replacing, it does not lock up very well. Needs a good cleaning. Shipping should be $75 to the US Diff is the middle diff in the pic. I also have a 3.91 open e21 diff if anybody is interested.
  6. Checking to see if there is a chance anybody would want to trade? I have an e21 lsd with 3.64 gears. Everything is mechanically in good shape but it does not lock up. I assume some new clutch plates and you would have a great diff. I would be looking for e24 rear seats that are black and have the center console and seat belts. Everything in great shape, no rips tears or anything. You pay shipping.
  7. Thanks! Oh, and yeah, I am wasting my time on here but if you have not figured it out by now, I am hard headed when it comes to morals. I dont move an inch. LOL. BTW, youre wasting your time in this thread for $0. LOL
  8. You didnt answer my question though. Are you willing to take the same advice for no reason? Doubt it. I have been in these sort of discussions too much lately. It gives me little faith in society when you cant trust people and on top of that the bigger problem is there are a bunch of people like you or others in this thread just willing to dismiss it and take it as a way of life. This is not what life should be and should not be deemed acceptable IMO. Dude made a mistake. Whether or not he knew it is not even the question. He sold something as good and its not. Its plain and simple. People should have morals and stand up for their mistakes. If you make a mistake, its NOT OK to make others pay for your mistakes! I just sent a 245 to a guy. I told him the brutal truth about it. Did I risk losing the sale? For sure but I had to be honest for mine and his own good. What if he got it and there were issues that I didnt tell him about? Should I really expect him to pay $100 to send it back? No, come on. I would take care of it because I was the dumb ass that either forgot or didnt know. This is or should be common sense but common sense isnt so common anymore, right? Thats why we have services such as Paypal to protect us.
  9. I guess I disagree with you then? Its not simply that I dont like it, its not as advertised. Its defective and does not work. Its broken. If he had told me that it had all these issues, thats a different story. Plus, my big issue is that I am pretty sure he knew of these issues before shipping. Thats the part that makes me angry. He wasted our time. Its common for the seller to pay for shipping costs back to them. Ebay, Amazon, Paypal and many others require sellers to pay return shipping when the item is not correctly advertised. Anyway, its in Paypals hands. Whatever they choose is fine with me. It will be interesting to see how it works out. My guess is that he will pay return shipping on their demand but I could be wrong.
  10. You would take your own advice I assume? Next time somebody sends you an items thats defective or not as described and you will be suggesting that you pay for return shipping? BTW, it would be $16.35. Not $10 or less.
  11. Calm down... LOL I think its $150. Shipping is like $50 flat rate. I need to order a bunch of other stuff so really, the mirror rides for free. I have a business that has a majority of transactions going thru Paypal. You can believe me or not, no biggie. I cant simply drill a new hole and tap it. There are multiple holes around the set screw. I just measured and if you took out the set screw, youre looking at a minimum of an 8mm set screw. That would be fine except the fact that the edge of the screw would be breaking thru the side of the mount at that size. Really, to fix it right, you would probably have to weld it all back up, drill it out and tap it. My guess is that is going to ruin the chrome finish and probably have poor threads to do the porosity from not being able to clean the material before welding. None of this is worth my time when I can just spend $150 on a new mirror that is perfect with all new hardware and gaskets.
  12. Thinking about it.... maybe youre right? In this situation, he is still claiming the part is "very fair" or "good condition". Maybe he believes it is? It makes it really hard to buy old used stuff if thats the case. I mean, there has to be a standard to which we all use, right? I would be willing to bet if you looked up those definitions in the dictionary that neither "very fair" or "good condition" would apply to a non use able part?
  13. Yeah, its happening all the time. I went to buy my E21 in May. I bought it on Ebay. Pictures were flawless ad description said flawless inside and out. I called the guy, I asked if there was even a tiny thing wrong with it. He said no. Its all perfect. I asked, is the interior black or blue, your camara is a bit dark. He said that they were black, he didnt think they even sold blue interiors.... So, I travel 10hr, 700 miles and find a car that cant even run, over heats going less than 2 miles, seat brackets broken amonst many other things, BLUE interior. Car was a wreck! I think people know what they have, I think they just want the sale. Its just a shame they cant be honest about it. I guess you cant sell crap if youre honest though?
  14. Youre still claiming this mirror to be in "very fair condition" and "drivers quality". This is even after you know of all these problems. Are you for real? I guess people can decide if they want a non useable part in these conditions from you. I would strongly disagree that its very fair or drivers condition. Again, I cant even mount the thing. How is it very fair or drivers quality? LOL. Its driver quality sitting on the shelf or the ground? LOL
  15. I have been looking at these mirrors for awhile now. I wanted a nice one. For $100, you should be able to get a nice one. I have a much better one here for $60. As you know, I can get a brand new one for $150, which is what I will do now to avoid all this hassle. Yes, as a seller, you have to soak up the shipping if you tell the buyer the price includes shipping. You also have to soak up the boxing and packaging and Paypal fees. I sell a TON of stuff online and bet I pay almost $40k in paypal fees a year. I never ask the buyer to pay them, its the sellers responsibility. If you dont like the cost, ask for more in your asking price. Yes, you treat others as you want to be treated. If I send a part that I make mistakes on (you had many mistakes) I will send a buyer a prepaid label to get the part back to me. I do this all the time. I paid for a mirror in good condition. I didnt get anything close. I know that you know this when you sent it wasting both of our time. For me to pay for that seems crazy. I am fine with Paypal figuring this out.
  16. Thanks Resra. I appreciate it. If it were just the gasket, I wouldnt have bothered anybody about this. Its much more than that though. I am not sure how youre going to fix the base of the mirror without some serious work. I think youre just better off finding a new one, which is even more money. For $100 for a mirror, you think I would have at least got one that I could mount to my car?
  17. Hopefully this is in the right place? I tried to do it in the feedback forum but it didnt let me unless I could link the topic. Rsherwood PM'd me after seeing in another post that I wanted a chrome flag mirror. He showed me a picture of it on the car, it looked like it was in great shape. He told me that everything was in good shape. I got the mirror and immediately noticed the gasket that goes around the door is split and also the little end that goes inside the mirror was badly beaten up. The gasket around the mirror looks like somebody took a sanding pad to it. Its very rough and not uniform. Like somebody rubbed the frame on the sidewalk. Not all hardware was shipped as promised. The deal breaker is that it looks like the set screw stripped off in the base, somebody tried to drill it out, missed multiple times and never even got the set screw out. Maybe this is why the hardware was not included because it had to be destroyed to be removed? So, the mirror cant even be attached without maybe welding, drilling and threading a new hole and even then, its going to be tough to get to look and work right again. He told me I am being picky about this part and that its driver quality. Maybe it is driver quality if you could even attach it to the car? In the sellers defense, he did offer to send the missing hardware (no mention of the gaskets, set screw etc). He also offered to refund it if I sent it back. My problem is that I know that he had to know about the issues before shipping, they are too obvious. I dont want to pay for shipping when I feel like these were known issues (also think about why he wanted me to pay friends and family). I think he sent these parts knowing they were bad and hoping to pass them off or not have to issue a refund. I have opened a paypal dispute. I would like a full refund with him paying shipping back.
  18. Would you take $50 plus ship for the mirror?
