It's like MCM gets the floor to speak and has all this authority but when Spin tried to take the floor he gets locked and banned and doesn't get a chance. Sounds fishy to me and sounds like favoritism :shakeno:

MCM also didn't start an internet ad selling one thing and delivering another. That is an internet/forum no-no.:nono: You don't do shit like that or you get the ban stick waved quickly!

But, just so everyone can quit thinking that spin was given the raw end, his ban has been lifted to a 2 week ban. He'll be back on the boards selling shit he doesn't have again very soon.

I agree, I don't know the guy personally but this tells me everything I need to know!

Spin was banned for the Bipolar comment, as someone said, it was WAY out of line, however, Ive released the perm. ban down to a 2 week ban. Had it been ANY other member, I wouldve done the same thing, NOT just because its Mike, I do NOT take kindly to people being screwed over the internet, and I do NOT take kindly to personal jabs like that, you say other, more harsh things are said all the time, but they are in an OBVIOUS JOKING manner, not the way Spin came across to Mike. Id have banned him for doing that to any one of you. Yes, Mike is my friend, I however, was doing what I felt was right, and todd, dont worry, Spin will be lucky to sell something on this board after this incident. And if something EVER happens like this again, I WILL NOT take it calmly, or go easy. Let this be a warning to ANY member, you SELL WHAT YOU HAVE, not what you think will sell better. And if you promise a freaking FULL REFUND, you will ISSUE a full refund.

The reason I lifted the ban was because it was only put in place for the personal attack, had nothing to do with the lights.

IDK, there have been some serious comments about people wishing others were dead. I can re-call at least one member saying this, and it wasn't in a joking manner.

As far as the whole thing. Spin shouldn't have posted one thing and sold something else that wasn't pictured. He was 100% wrong there.

MCM I don't think is at fault much at all. Yes, he should have done more research into what AM sells and saw it wasn't the same that Spin sold him.

Here's what I think should go down, and would be fair to both parties.

Spin should refund Mike the "difference" between the $138 that the kit sells on Ebay and the $200 that Mike purchased it for.

I know this doesn't have much to do with it, since Mike is arguing that it wasn't the same kit he was expecting, but he probably didn't do as much research as maybe one should.


And Mike, you can definitely turn around and sell those on Ebay for a good amount.

I had a pair of one year old Projectors that I bought for $214 and sold them on Ebay for $205 a year later! AND one side even had slight oxidation (of course the bidders knew this)

Guys, just want you all to know I posted the thread after the install of one side @ 9:34 pm on January 12th. The first offer from Spin for a full refund was received @ 10:17 pm on January 12th. The second offer for a full refund came the next day, January 13th at 2:34 PM. He knew I had already installed the one side and STILL offered a full refund. It wasn't until after I took him up on his offer that he became hostile.
If anyone wants further proof, I would be MORE than happy to post my password so you all can log in a see the chain of PM's between us.
He is a dishonest seller, plain and simple. That is the only point I want to get across to everyone on this board. Take it for what it is worth. There are so many inconsistencies with his stories, but a lot of you are still trying to find fault in my actions. The only thing I am guilty of here......was trusting a fellow Mustang Boards member. :shakeno:

cool...

I think that is a pretty fair temp ban...

-------------------------------------------

As far as this whole issue between Mike and Spin...

well... thats what it is... between Mike and Spin... Hopefully they can sort it out between themselves...

With all due respect, I'm sure that either one of their stories are 100% true... I'm sure that they both have exaggerated somewhat...

Good luck to the both of ya I hope it works out for the best

It's always hard to do that but I will have to state this when and if he comes back on I think he should be on thin ice on what he says and i'm pretty sure no one will buy from him again.

White04GT 01-16-2007 08:05 PM

I doubt anyone will buy the cheap garbage HID's he sells now anyway.

He is selling them on other sites as well, I think I need to tip off the other members so they don't get screwed. :salook:

Ya do it. The guy is a douchebag we have all seen his picture. Kid looks like a fairy with all his peirceings. Just sell thoughs lights on ebay if he doesnt give you a refund and spend the extra money and get the right ones.

SnTBakosFinest 01-16-2007 10:42 PM

I dunno, it all sounded like "lets see who can give someone the bad name first." Spin tried to, and it backfired. I remember seeing his post for the lights, I've been looking for the covers or wtf ever they are called, i just call everything a do-dad anyways.

The whole "i'll refund you" thing was a bluff, in hopes that you would give him a better name for himself saying how good doing business was with him ect.. He never expected you to say you actually wanted it, I don't think.

I know what you mean when you say you don't think to check on stuff when you first get the package, this is a good learning lesson for those of us who don't though. We need to, regardless of who we buy from.

Taking personal shots in such a serious matter such as this was uncalled for, most definately. Its one thing when you're butthurt over a thread, its another when you get screwed out of cash..

When I first joined and starting posting threads and replies ect I figured Spin was the forum idiot/jackass, and I figured no one really did business with him to begin with. After this, I don't think anyone will.

Maybe when he comes back a moderator can tell him he is not allowed to sell on these forums due to his false advertisement?

so....how do the HIDs work? good? bad?

The lights work ok. They are not as bright as I thought they would be. That could be due to the fact that they are not installed in a car/housing that was designed for HIDs. Since they do not work on Hi/Lo Beams, I am forced to rewire my 4 fog lights to work independently off my fog light switch. They are blue, I'll give the description in the ad that much.
Honestly, I wish I could re-sell them and get the ones I thought I was getting but since there is NO way I could ever get anything close to $150 for these since they are selling on eBay BRAND NEW for $138, I guess I gotta keep them.

I do have one final option, as many of you know, I drive a Tractor Trailer for a living. We deliver all over the South East. I am currently on my way to Jacksonville, Fl to deliver a load of Yarn. I can request a pick up at Port Everglades just outside of Ft. Lauderdale. While I am there, I can swing through Miami, since I have his work address, and see if I can settle this in person. :salook:

White04GT 01-17-2007 07:07 AM

Slither I hope your joking...

White04GT 01-17-2007 07:12 AM

Well I guess that is true Jack. It's just that I have had the same thing happen to me and have been screwed over. So whenever I see some other scumbag pulling a scam like that I can't help but get pissed off. Especially when they are both well known members.

madmatt 01-17-2007 07:44 AM

Put em on ebay Mike, starting price 150 bucks :D

Or call him and tell him you are coming to get your 80% refund.

Actually, I have a better idea. I am gonna PM it to you and the other Mods/Admins for approval.

GREG@SN95 01-17-2007 03:36 PM

First off he wasn't pulling a ****in scam...

He didn't say, "hm... let me go **** some over and sell them garbage...

No doubt he should have done things different...

But still... why the **** did mike think they were so awesome... the only reason that they lost their awesomeness is cause he looked at the box for more then 10 seconds...

I think this whole piss and moan about spin bullshit is out of hand...

Throwing around personal insults like 1rst graders picking on the fat kid with glasses...

****

When did I ever say they were awesome? All I said is that they were a nice kit/quality.
Keep trying to defend the fact that conducted a dishonest transaction. PERIOD!
Any way you look at he knew what he was selling and KNEW it wasn't the set from Mustang Tuning but still chose to advertise it as such.

One day, you will get screwed out of cash from someone you trusted.
