Hey AbsoluteGT,

PM me your addy.

I've got a set in my garage with your name all over them. 1.5 inch spacers, lugs included, hub and wheel centric, but off eBay. I ran them without issue for about two months. All I ask is that when you get the chance, pay it forward.

I hope you get your money back from that douche. I hate shit like that. We all work hard for our money and to have some low life straight steal ain't cool. Hopefully getting a free set makes up for the nonsense. I believe in karma and man, she can be a bitch.
Can you direct me to where you got yours? I've been wanting a set.

Certain its him? Seems like a common name of Portuguese/Brazil people....
no idea, I just googled the name, and seen that one, he looks like the kind of schmuck that would pull something like this!
there was 1 from SoFlo, i havent had a chance to look him up yet though. ;)

And here is the response I received.


FF Almeida said:
No sir, I mailed you the spacers in the box from another seller that sold my neighbor his spacers from amazon. They did include the lugs I placed them in a ziplock bag in the bottom of the shipping peanuts. They were bought from wheel adapters and I have the receipt. I do not understand what the problem is since it is exactly what I described. You still received a better deal than buying direct an they are brand new

David,
Your box was at my door today. I was excited until I opened the box to see that these are not hub or wheel centric, and are definitely not Wheeladaptor.com wheel spacers. These are generic ebay spacers, and did not even include any of the lugs. I am sure hoping that you did not buy these and saw that they were not hub and wheel centric and just tried to unload these on me. We need to talk about these immediately. There is a yellow piece of paper that clearly shows these of pe.motorwerks that is on eBay selling these exact spacers.

Photos of what was sent. I am not trying to glorify anything, everything I described in the very 1st post is what I have pictured here. I am not trying to rip off or scam anyone...it was just VERY clear to me, that these were not wheeladapter.com spacers, if he was just up front from the very first PM when I asked BRAND, I EVEN LISTED EBAY!

David, we both know these are ebay's...I'm sorry it had to go this way, but I already had the feeling that you were going to stand by that these were wheeladapter.com spacers

pictures are worth a million words...so here goes...

Also,
Thank you everyone. I truly mean that. I think we are all very careful about getting scammed and burned on internet transactions and sometimes thats the dice we roll, but every single interaction/transaction I have had on this forum has been nothing short of awesome, so I think my guard was down trusting a fellow forum member because of all the dealings I had with other members. My fault. I will and can easily take blame on this, I know that I was very clear in black and white, but I should have asked for pictures.

I really did not want to air this matter and was hoping it could be handled internally, but my gut feeling told me that he shipped me these spacers knowing, so he probably won't give two shits in the end.

Tundragas, your offer is what makes me enjoy this forum, because you are truly a awesome member of the forum, my military family is close knit, and I semi treat this forum the same way, because we are all enthusiasts and enjoy our trucks and I have learned so much at the expense of others with their stories of products.

Thanks everyone for chiming in, it makes me feel better that we can all band together when stuff like this happens.

I really wish there was a mis understanding or whatever, but as you saw from the pictures...its not the case.

Hence the reason for the requirement for pics to sell things and the 50 post requirement before selling. Like seat belt laws and time limits on buffets, those rules are to protect us from ourselves.
And people get pissed when I enforce it. This is why we have rules set in place, to help protect you guys.

What a dick... Sorry this happened man I've been in your shoes... I helped a guy out on here numerous times and in return he was going to ship me some billet interior knob covers that were a 1-off-custom. We sent a few informational e-mails back and forth and he sounded pretty damn serious. Well I never got the knobs.. I tried sending him numerous e-mails to see what was going on and he ended up deleting his e-mail account. You gotta be careful man there is some sketchy sumbitches out there these days.. Hopefully you get your money back and the moron who sold them to you gets banned from this forum.
