: NX2kRidah $600 dispute update
Storm88000 06-21-2002, 12:52 PM I made this a new thread, so everyone could see it. I got this email from Josh (NX2KRidah) this morning:
"hey man good news this morning the postman woke me up with the package the greatest news i heard all week. i'm not sure if you still want them but if you do i'll certify them and insure them when i send them so it won't happen again. i was wrong i didn't right the zip code wrong i wrote the address wrong i put 2829 just like mine email me asap if you still want them."
So is the auction on EBAY.com going back up?:D
nx2kracer 06-21-2002, 02:45 PM do they come with valve springs? I was under the impression you can get the cams brand new from JWT for $600 and it was another $500 for the springs?
Toolapcfan 06-21-2002, 02:58 PM Good point Matt, why don't you just get your money back if you aren't going to use them anyways? Unless of course you can turn a good profit on them by selling them on Ebay, in which case I'd say do that if it's worth your trouble. I'd just get my money and be glad I didn't get hosed.
Sr20kidD 06-21-2002, 03:28 PM you better mnake sure to tell him to wrap them up nice and secure or else ups is going to kick the hell out of them.. i wouldnt go thru ups even if it was the last service around
Serban 06-21-2002, 05:12 PM Jordan, if he doesnt even know for sure that they are C3 cams, I say just get your money back. What if he just sends you some stock cams??

Then there would be a big problem! But I'm sure the C3 cams have some sort of engraving on the from JWT so he couldn't say he didn't know.
92SE-R 06-21-2002, 05:28 PM Nope, no markings. Only way you can tell is if you throw them in and you LOPE like crazy or if you measure them.
92SE-R 06-21-2002, 05:29 PM Also, JWT cams are a very dark charcoal color billet. Not the same color as stock ones.
I had a bad experience back when I bought my S3's. The guy took forever to send them, and when he finally did the a$$hole sent them C.O.D. after I had already paid for them. So I had to pay an additional $26 for shipping. But after the time I had already waited it was worth it.
Anyhow who's to say this guy didn't get the cams installed in his motor, and is going to send you the stocks along with stock springs? He hasn't exactly been honest up to this point.

I wrote him back and told him to send me them through UPS with a tracking number, and only if they are indeed the JWT C3s. Thats not to say I neccesarily believe his story, though. We'll see what happens. [/B]
You never learn do you!!! You know that saying: "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."
92SE-R 06-21-2002, 08:42 PM Naji, bring your classic down here. Dave can fab you up a nice Muffler with mandrel bends.
93BlackBird 06-21-2002, 09:42 PM didn't he say he got a new motor? That would mean he has a spare set of OEM cams and valve springs and retainers just chillin wouldn't it? I would have to say just get your six so you can fix your "tranny issues" and be glad that you have at least $600 TRUST me you will be glad you did.
Storm88000 06-22-2002, 01:10 AM Very good point. I replied to his mail and told him I just want my money back.

Storm88000 06-22-2002, 01:14 PM I got this email from him this morning:
"i want you to post this to everyone seems like you post only the bad conversations between me and you. look i'm gonna send you the cams thru the mail since like i emailed you before they got to my house on friday the 21st i will send them to you asap if you have a problem with it after you recive them you can then take this to an attorney it will help my defense if i send you something and your talking about arresting me so i'm forced to do this. after you recive it then you can call the cops but i'm gonna send them to you in the mean time at least you'll see that i'm not trying to scam you and if you still want your money back i'll buy the cams back off you. i'm trying to work this out to me seems like your listening to all the little kids on the sr20 forum. remember your getting advice from 16 and 17 year olds."

"Translation: I took your money and i spent it. Now I have no choice but to send you these cams. I have no clue what these cams are or even if they are SR20DE cams. But I am going to send them anyway. I must send them to legally cover my butt. In the meantime, I will flame all those who are honest and have integrity by calling them 16-17 years old."
Ridah, you are such a scam artist. Just give the man his money back and keep your bloody cams. Stop playing games and act like a man. From the first time you posted here you started flaming and I did not trust you bcak then, I still do not trust you now.
I do not know why Jordan trusted you. I think Jordan made an error in judgement. I hope he learned his lesson. Folks, never buy stuff from shady characters. I for one never buy stuff off e-bay or from people that I do not know really well.
Storm88000 06-22-2002, 01:44 PM Just had this conversation with him on AOL AIM. This is long so unless your quite interested just skim through it:
NX2KRidah: i went back to the sr20 forum to look around thats what made me want to send the cams in the first place. everybody talking about arresting me and stuff
Storm88000: you're 100 percent sure these are the JWT C3's
NX2KRidah: but i can't be arrested for this only sued
NX2KRidah: yes
NX2KRidah: they say c3 on the cams
Storm88000: are you sure?
NX2KRidah: it's like a white chalk
NX2KRidah: yes
Storm88000: where on the cam is it
NX2KRidah: it's in between 2 of the lobes
Storm88000: ok
NX2KRidah: i'm sure
Storm88000: ok well go to UPS now and send them
Storm88000: and then call me with the tracking number
NX2KRidah: is ups open today?
Storm88000: yep
Storm88000: but remember, if these aren't the C3 cams and springs and stuff your wasting your time sending me them, it will honestly make things worse
NX2KRidah: ?
Storm88000: I mean if i get a package from you here and they're like stock cams or something form your bad engine it will be worse than if you were just sending my money back
NX2KRidah: ok
Storm88000: so i'm just lettting you know thats all
NX2KRidah: you don't have to make any threats i'm trying to work things out
Storm88000: i'm not making threats, just making you aware that i'm aware you have a bad engine sitting around.
NX2KRidah: i know i'm sending you c3 cams valves and
retainers if i hear anymore shit after you get them yes there will be problems just to let you know i'm tired of this shit
NX2KRidah: see doesn't it offend you?
Storm88000: I will be able to tell if they are C3's
NX2KRidah: ok
Storm88000: my advice would be for you to go to UPS within hours of right now and send them 3 or 5 day - the sooner these get here (and if they are C3's as you say) the sooner we can put this behind us
NX2KRidah: listen jordan you seem like a very nice person but the way you speak to people isn't exactly making me the happiest person right now
Storm88000: well remember i still have sent you $600 and i have nothing here.
NX2KRidah: if you wanna resolve this and get what you want you need to change your tone if you were nicer about it i would send you the cams and money for your time
Storm88000: i am nice about it, alot of people would have called the cops by now.
Storm88000: i'm being very patient.
NX2KRidah: if you call the cops there gonna have to review both cases and in about a few months from know there will be a court date for me and you i will spend money on a lawyer and so will you.
Storm88000: well if they're the C3's.. go to UPS asap and send them
NX2KRidah: remember i'm innocent till proven guilty you think your just gonna tell the cops i scammed you and there gonna come running after a guy who never stole a penny in his life?
NX2KRidah: infact your lucky i didn't show anybody the recipet cause that means it was lost in the mail and not my fault and after it returned to my house if was an asshole i could have just kept them.
NX2KRidah: if i would have showed you the recipet and you beleaved they were lost i would legally have to pay you nothing. but since day one i always told you i would pay you back
Storm88000: OK. well then all you have to do is go and send them
Storm88000: UPS, you get a tracking number, so it can't get lost
NX2KRidah: sorry i wanna rub it in that i was right hehe
Storm88000: well if it turns out you were right and I get C3's here soon, i will make a post on the forum and say your a very honest guy
Storm88000: so for me to do that you need to go and send them
Storm88000: and once i get them and could verify they are JWT C3's I would post immediately
NX2KRidah: i don't go to that forum anymore so it don't matter to me
NX2KRidah: haven't went back since i last posted that reply to the topic i made
NX2KRidah: i'm telling you right now so you don't throw a fit i might not email it to you tonight cause i'll be busy and the only computer i use is my girl's and she lives in st pete a 30 min ride from my house but if i go to gandy tonight i'll stop by her house to email it to you
NX2KRidah: but i'll send it out today
