Why would he do that and can the compressor wheel be exchanged on a sly @Pudding ? I know what's a ford guy doing breaking things or should I say that's normal for ford staff  :signLOL: break it then say it was broken before they touched it!.

Im not sure if he's bought another one but can't believe he's still trying to get some money back  :signLOL:

I can't help seeing good in people as my mother raised me not to have hatred for anyone form whatever background which is how I am and to think good of people and not the worst  :doh:

I can't see myself blocking him as I'm too sold at heart not that anyone would think this  :fighting2:

I'm going to have it out with him and then if he tries mouthing off I'm uploading all our conversations on fb and let the whole world decide on what a criminal he's trying to be?.

Thanks guys you're all amazing  :love:

Did you have pics of the turbo before sending it?

yes it's all up on fb and I also have them in my phone and saved in fb too.
people have also said don't give me the refund. Nina from BBT said he can sell me a cheap core but that's an option but better to tell the guy to do one as that's not transit damage.

Don't be too hard on yourself for seeing the good in people, it's not a bad thing in this day & age.  There are a lot of dishonest arse wipes out there, so you just need to be a bit cautious  :happy2:

Well said Pudding

Unfortunately, it does look like this guy screwed up the turbo himself and is trying to abuse your good nature. What a pain. If he won't send it back to you for full inspection i'd just leave him off.

I try and see the best in people. Sometimes it doesn't work out :sad1:

But I'll keep doing it none the less :happy2:

I've had so many good experiences (especially with fellow members on this forum) that it helps me keep the faith!! :happy2:

Good luck for this buddy....

Oh.... and happy Christmas all :happy2:

bery true as I've had more good buying and selling experiences than bad so it doesn't deter me from still thinking there are decent people and a handful of dodgy scum out there.

He's mates know him for ten years doesn't make him a saint for goodness sakes. I know the way the core has broken under further investigation has got me thinking in the manifold was the heaviest part I put in the box facing down then how did the two side bolts damage the core  :thinking: anyway he can keep the broken part as he's clearly not messaging me otherwise to say he didn't do it so fair do's although don't tell him I'm being such a nice guy that I've contacted myHermes and trying to get his money back even when he's being a dongle as this is how I am. Too nice for my own good. No insurance so I doubt it.


Merry Xmas to all  :love:
