a. He is not replying to your Pms and

b. he didn't post pictures as he promised?

I mean I'm not trying to be hard on you but on what ground did you make that payment? what went though your mind that made you think "let me just pay this guy since he isn't replying to my pm or posting the picture of the kit as he promised". Is this your first purchase on forums? This isn't a pair of springs, it's a turbo kit. How can you send money without even looking at the turbo parts or the condition of the parts or even to make sure all the parts are included? You need to file dispute asap if he is not replying to your pm. I updated his inbox so that he can get all pms.

I will not pay $3 to someone who isn't replying to my pm or not keeping his part of the promise (posting the pictures). I can have the world toughest classified rules but that will still NOT protect you from getting scammed if you send someone money blindly (without thinking)

I will add the new classified rules (ver. 2) end September or October. It will have different requirement for items with various prices. I'll try to post sooner. Until that's posted, you just have to take extra caution when you buy stuff. If you see a post that needs picture, ask for picture or report the post. Me or mod can chime in and ask them for picture (it's a requirement when we ask). Also, DO NOT EVER pay any money as "gift" via paypal trying to save couple bucks. Pay using proper paypal protocol (money sent for "goods") and this way you can dispute if necessary (you cant dispute 'gift" payments). If the prices are too good to be true, it probably is. Walk away. Do not purchase anything without talking to the member first. If he doesn't reply or fail to provide you info,pic etc via pm/email, walk away. Know the signs of whether something is fishy or not. Not sure? send me a pm. I get pm all the time where member ask me" AK what you think of this sale? should I buy?" I give them my honest input (or chime in to classified asking proper info). Just by taking small precautions, you can SIGNIFICANTLY lower your chances of getting ripped. DarkJak, keep me posted about your pm exchange with OP.

I've been watching this post for a while, but I didn't want to throw accusations. This whole think smelt of a scam right from the get go. I mean $3k twin turbo kit? made by HKS? thats never been released?

I suggest we do the pic rule like the rest of the forums do.

Every item you list for sale have to be photographed with your name and date, or instant deletion.
