Hello Jared,
I hope you are not trying to screw me over, I guess I shouldn’t have trusted you but I did, I need a tracking # for the column, the column, or send me my louvers back. Here is how everything has transpired since we made the deal just so everyone knows. The only reason I am posting this is because he supposedly shipped the column last Friday, has not given me a tracking # and is now stating he never received the louvers I sent and have proof of them being delivered.
Here are the Private messages between him and I:

The louvers are really nice with only one half broken stud in total. The half broken stud is in the middle of the louver so it will not affect mounting. Please send me your addy so I can get them packaged.

Not at all John, he is on the boards right now. He will not reply to any of my or our posts or PM's and I hope he makes it right.

Here is the latest to keep everyone who is interested informed, he PM'd me and wrote:
3/30:
"hey those louvers didn't come to saturday not monday yours should be there by now as well i sent it out a week ago i used usps they told me 5 days cause it was parcel post let me see if i can track it down i didn't get the delivery confirmation but i'll see whats going on"
It seems like he is telling one lie after another to cover up the first lie, I wish he would have just maned up, told me the truth in the first place, and he would avoided a situation like this.

Just an FYI there is no way to track a package through USPS unless you pay for delivery confirmation.
Also I ship a LOT of packages through usps, they are slow but do not lose stuff, or at least they have not lost any of the probably 100 packages I have sent through them. Lately USPS seems very slow, I shipped out an antenna that should of been 5 business days but took about 2 weeks, no idea why. Give it a chance, USPS is always slow but reliable.
in my opinion if you are sending any part worth more than like $5 you should pony up the 65 cents for a tracking number and delivery conf. this guy def sounds like hes covering up mistakes (intentional or unintention). hope you guys get it worked out !
Ive gotta say that usps is very slow. Took a week for a money order i sent to get from CT to MA. Not only that but stop bashin Jared, hes a stand up guy. Ive had many dealings with him and never have we had a single issue. You cant beat his prices and the parts are top notch. Ill stick up for ya bud.

I sent my package out AS PROMISED, it arrived to him AS PROMISED in a few days. Why did he not send it out on Friday UPS with tracking like he stated I am not bashing anyone here buddy, all I want from him is the TRUTH instead of one lie after another. If he is your buddy why don't you find out what is really going on and post it here because he wont. Please reread all his posts and read through the original thread if you think he is in the right, heck he lied about sending out a payment when I orginally dealt with him and he was caught telling a lie there also. All I want is a tight steering column or my louvers back, simple as that, I don't need any more smoke blown up my arse There is one thing I really hate and that is a liar, when someone tells a lie they have to keep telling lies to cover up the original lie and it turns to this

I always ship USPS Priority Mail, it takes 2 days and comes with delivery confirmation. It only costs a couple of buxs more but it is worth it because you know it will get there on time. If he says he sent it all I can do is wait, originally he stated he sent it UPS and forgot the tracking # at work, so lets see what happens

USPS priority mail doesnt come with delivery confirmation, it is extra. Delivery time is dependant on distance, it is not always 2 days. It is faster than parcel post but not always 2 days. Anyway, good luck. I have a nice column from an 88 IROC if you still need one.
This sucks that you are getting screwed. I have dealt with people in the past who say they sent it USPS and have no delivery confirmation. You basicly are taking there word(which isnt much in this day and age) that it was actaully sent. Then they can lay all the blame on the post office when it never shows.
The way I see it, he owes you money or a column if it doesnt show up. Delivery confirmation is to protect the seller and it deosnt cost much. Its his problem if he cheaped out and didnt put it on the package. Also if he stated he was shipping UPS and sent it out USPS then thats just bad business.
Oh, and 83Chevy_Camaro...your a douche bag. If thats the best you can contribute to this site then go away.

Did you pay with paypal? If so, time to file a claim!
I didn't pay, I traded. Every third gen has a steering coulmn, there are only so many nice hood louvers left but I gambled on Jared, I hope I don't end up at a loss. It has been 12 days and still no column Latest PM from him will be posted below.

"A receipt won't prove anything except that you were at the post office, unless you have positive proof that you mailed the column specifically to me a receipt won't prove squat."

I sent him at cashiers check for a steering wheel and a console lid. He claimed the check was bad. I checked with my bank and they said the check was cleared.

not defending anyone or attacking anyone but i know when i ordered USPS shipping it took ALMOST a month to get my stuff.. NO JOKE! hopefully you'll still get the column you traded for. Plus i think if you didn't get the column he should give you back the louvers..... but whatever hardly anyone cares about anyone anymore.
You guys are opening up old wounds. I recognized the name(cam91rs1) and knew I had previous dealings with him (back in '06). Went a couple months. I had to ship the parts back because he misrepresented them and I was out the shipping. I've got lots of emails. Why is he still here? Stay away
Your are ultimately responsible if the item doesnt show up. You chose to send it USPS instead of UPS or Fed Ex that can be tracked. Not to mention with UPS or Fed Ex you get $100 of Insurance.
never refused to send his parts back but i'm not going to do that ''YET'' because i know he will be getting the column it was SENT OUT and once again i'm sorry for the long wait not my fault for the 8th time i'll ask the post office to write him an apology letter. I'M SORRY. what more do u want me to say as far as a few people haveing a few issues with me there's alot that have not had issues with me had have bought more then one thing from me sorry everything with everybody doesn't go so smoothly

With respect, choosing to ship using the Post Office instead of UPS does not make one responsible for parts not arriving. The USPS is a legitimate form of delivery, and with Delivery Confirmation it provides limited ability to track your packages, at least at their endpoint.
This is true but without putting the .55 cent confirmation on it would be a huge mistake on the sellers part and IMO make him responsible. I ship alot of smaller Items through them and always put a confirmation on them. I sold a few things a few years back that i failed to put a confirmation on and the buyer stated they it never showed. I had no proof it was sent so i refunded there money or sent out another part.

You have a valid point there Dave, but when an individual states that he or she is shipping through one source, then states the next day that the tracking # was forgotten at work, then states a week later the the package was shipped via another carrier with no tracking # and now it is two weeks later and who knows if anything was ever shipped, is this guy trustworthy I have never had a problem shipping USPS 2 day Priority Mail (NEVER) My packages get there within 2 days (unless I ship on Friday) and I have always been able to track them. What also gets me is that I tracked the louvers, he stated he never got them but I knew he did and after he stated he hadn't received them he offered them for sale

I hope the column does come, but I am very skeptical at this point. Of course it is your fault because you lied about shipping

Thank you very much for the offer Chris, let me see where this goes and I will let you know. The main reason I wanted to get a tight one is because I didn't want to mess with taking it apart.
Thank you

Hello Jared,
There was in fact a pink slip in my mail box today, now all I have to do is pick it up and make sure it's ok. I never meant to start this but when you stated you never got the louvers and my tracking showed you had them and you attempted to sell them right after that I was infuriated. I hope the column is what you said it is. Please make things easier for you for all future posts and transactions, please be upfront and honest, honesty is the best policy.
Lawrence
I will post a follow up on the condition of the column because I never saw a picture; I dont think you have a camera yet.

Iron duke, kind of off topic but what did you do to your column..i just had to tear into mine. What happened to yours to make your car immobile? I am just curious to know, if it all else fails, two brains (not to mention everyone else on this board) are better then one in figuring out how to fix your old one

Well my column was so floppy I hated to even take my car for a drive. I took out the column two weeks ago and started taking it apart by reading posts and the reading the manual I have. I ended up breaking the plastic shroud so I basically just busted the column up with a hammer to get my turn signal switch out My old column is in pieces and is a pile of junk I hear it's easy to repair but I guess I don't have the time or the tools to do it myself
