That's his standard suspension lie. The bronco I purchased from this a-hole claimed to have all new James Duff Suspension. Nothing was new and as of yet I found not one single piece of Duff suspension. Unless you count the 3" lift blocks in the rear that could have been anyone's. I have been working on this Bronco for over 2 years trying to make it safe and roadworthy . And yes I do all I can to report this a-hole to ebay every time he list something and will continue to do so.
Good for you man. Con artists are some of the worst kinds of people in my book. Basically just thieves. I bought a 78 Bronco about 6 years ago on Ebay. I should have known better but the lady was really nice and it looked really good from the pictures. After I paid for it she gave me the run around on shipping it for almost 6 months. Finally I told her I was just going to fly out and drive it back. Suddenly she can ship it. I paid her $500 for the shipping. Long story short it finally showed up while I was offshore working so my wife and a friend went to this big parking lot to pick it up. Except the seller never paid the transport company. She told them they would get paid on delivery. Wife didn't know the details so of course she pulled another 500 from my account and paid the guy. When I got back home from work and saw the Bronco I wanted to cry. This supposedly "rust free" Bronco was basically held together with paint and Bondo. And thanks to her stalling 6 months on shipping it, I wasn't covered under EBay's Buyer Protection. What a shock. So short of flying out to VA and filing a report and going to court, I was just screwed. So anyway man, I feel your pain. And I think what youre doing is righteous. If you can just save one person from getting conned by this POS then youre doing a great service. Getting ripped off like that is a horrible feeling. I'll never make that mistake again but it still pisses me off when I think about it all these years later.
