He is sorta a member of the GA fiero club, you might try and contact someone there to lend a hand in to helping him make this right. here is a link to their club page. http://www.gafiero.org/
I hope all works out for you.
I just realized you're in Canada so the phone calling can get rather expensive.

Posted Description: Up for auction is a set of ported fiero exhaust manifolds, theses manifolds increase exhaust flow to make your motor breathe better, The pics show the before and after the porting, The manifolds had not been welded prior to grinding, the grind job was horrid there was still an 1/8" lip in each port, the inner restrictions were pretty rough, and there were a few cracks that had been welded that looked more like someone had sneezed on it.
I emailed him saying that they were not of the quality I expected for a $50 starting bid with a $20 shipping. I pointed out the flaws, and he replied by saying he knew about them, that's why he wasn't using them, and he bought them off ebay and was just reselling them. I asked him why he didn't mention any of this in the posted description. I wouldn't have minded paying $30+shipping to get a spare set of manifolds to take to my welder, but $70 (let alone the $120 I paid) for a set of manifolds that need a lot of work is absurd. He accused me of just being pissed off for over paying, and that he was marketing a new turbo system for fieros and I wasn't going to get any deals on it.
Just a heads up, he won't take returns even if he knew there was a flaw in his sale item.

You know you still can file a grievance with paypal, if that is how you paid. They would freeze the monies you paid until the case is settled. If I recall correctly you have 45 days.

Don't do business with this guy. Sent him money for heads several weeks ago. The one time he was stupid enough to answer the phone when I called he told me they had shipped out the week before. It's been 2 weeks and no heads. Now all i get is his voicemail at a random number of rings which tells me that he's kicking me to voicemail. At least the guy could be a man and tell me he screwed me. Doesn't even have the balls to pick up the phone.
Is it against the rules to post his contact info? He's in Tulsa, OK. Voicemail says thanks for calling fiero speed.. I don't know how this guy could have a business considdering from his posts in tech he can barely keep a stocker running.
First let me say,I treat people as I want to be treated. Second,I have just reread most of the posts on this thread,I would like to be recognized as an honest person so I can't take credit for being a good seller or buyer of a 3400 engine as I have never owned that engine.Thank you anyway for the compliment.

Eclipse is a good seller. Bought a fuel rail off of him, and he answered all my private messages in a timely manner, got the fuel rail to me on time, and even shined it up to look real good. A "+" is headed your way Eclipse Thanks Kyle

I can't remember every member that I've dealt with over the years, so anyone I miss, forgive me.
GOOD thismanyfieros (got my 87 GT from him) jelly2m8 (I bought a fastback conversion and other items. He was always full of help and advice. Too bad he's not around much anymore.) Bixby (sold an 85 GT to him) neverendingproject ( got some lowering springs from him) silver86se (shop manual, don't think he posts anymore) MstangsBware (just received package from him today. I'm very happy with the item and the whole transaction. Good member to deal with) FieroStore (always fast shipping) Rodney Dickman Canadian Hi-Performance Discount
I wouldn't hesitate to deal with any of these members and vendors. I recommend them all.

Excellent to deal with Brian Lamberts Randye Shawnkfl Fiero67 Spiff Exoticse I forget who I bought the lowering springs from but the coilovers were from a member with 3800 in his username. (I know it doesn't help)
I always forget the FieroStore but they are great.
Coupe85 is a bad seller. I bought some tail lights from him, he packed them so poorly they rubbed together and destroyed and cracked the lenses. Will not answer pm's or email. Took me for $100.
to who I bought from as now and sold
