    Ryan,
    Email your address to me at Buick1970@aol.com I've got one I will give you. That is a sad looking piece! I'm sure shipping from British Columbia to North Carolina was next to nothing to boot...

    huge thanks

    :beer guys thanks so much I just want one so that I could get it redone to put in my car. mine is fine but needs to be rechromed and I would have to take it out and send it off that means I would have to wait and not be able to drive my car till it got back and if I could get one from one of you I would gladly send you mine when I put the redone one in my car like I said mine is fine so lee I will take steve up on his offer and if for some reason it falls through I will PM you and let you know thank you both so very much.

    :beer

    If haven't already, you should really consider leaving negative feedback. They have recently received one and have about 9 over the last 12 months.

    Sorry about the bad luck and thanks for the warning.

    I plan to leave negitive feedback and in that a link to the picks of how bad it came in that way people can see for themselves the way musslecaruniverse.com treats custamers

    That's a good idea. How much extra trouble is it really to just pack something right? Sock it to them right where it hurts!:spank:

    ryan if they wont respond to emails, i would pull their contact info from ebay and give them a call. if the phone number isnt valid, turn them in to ebay for invalid contact info. its a long shot since it sounds like they just dont care, but theres a slight chance that they might change their thinking if you can talk to them in person. sounds to me like they cant afford more neg. fb. they are fools if they wont make it right.

    was the box damaged ? to be broken that badly, it seems like the box would be damaged also. if not, then i would tend to think they show one piece on ebay, then ship another piece. either way, thats no good. it is very frustrating when a seller wont communicate.

    GStage1 Always looking for parts!

    Just some more info:

    If you bought this item by sending payment through the mail and it was shipped through USPS. I would strongly suggest you document the pic, sales price, shipping info, etc. Go to the local post office and contact the post master. File a Mail Fraud Claim. This is a federal offense and is taken very seriously by USPS and the FBI. If they have negative feedback and you are not the first to file a mail fraud claim, they can be in serious trouble.

    guys they emailed me after I emailed them 4 times and here is there reply

    " HI
    I have emailed you three times in reply
    As stated in previous email < i did not send it broken or did I break it. I am sorry it arrived broken, I will start a claim with the post office through who it was delivered by, and let you know when its rectified Thanks Greg "


    I am unsure of how this will Go but I will hold off on neg feedback till I here more I think it should not take more than 2 weeks to get more info does this sound about right ???

    George I will think long and hard about your idea thanks for the input everyone !!!!!!!!!

    staged70 RIP

    Hey that was handled by the same gorillas that handled my 72 GS grille !! I think some of those cracks are exactally the same USPS must see FRAGILE and think it means to drive over it with their truck . Is this the same seller with the 2900.00 BIN on a set of fenders ? What a ripoff
     
  16. I have had excellent success with the postal service regardingshipping and handling of packages. UPS is a totally different story. a couple of the guys i work with used to be UPS handlers..the stories they tell would just floor you..Bob

    just an update to let everyone know that muslecaruniverse.com stepped up and refunded my money today and I just wanted to let everyone know so that if you plan to buy from them you will know that they do stand up and do the right thing

    P.S. steve have you had a chance to get the dash bezel out ???
