Ok, maybe I'm slow on the uptake, but why is this seller crooked?

EDIT: plus the other two pics are definatly from Flash Options...

yeah, i spotted that too.. It was amazing to me that there were 2 half cut silvias, with full front panels, dirty as hell, except for the valve cover. What a rip.

"Item is shipped from my importer in Japan!"

So she's an importer for Flash Options now? I remember when Flash Options first appeared, she was "buying" two clips from them and was just like everyone else here and knew nothing about Flash Options, now she's an importer for them? Of course she could have been playing dumb. But there's just something not right about that person, both on here and on ebay.

Let people get screwed over... if they're not smart enough to do their OWN research then they get what they deserve. I wouldn't buy an engine that I can't put my hands on and inspect first-hand. And I also wouldn't buy an engine without the guarantee that it would run right or I get another put in for me!

File a report with eBay - She'll be history.

I've gotten 2 other unscrupulous people banned from eBay for screwing things up...

Well, I really didn't mean that I'd like to see someone get screwed over. But, seriously, when and if the time comes to swap an engine... I WILL be at the shop to look and it first! Why wouldn't you want to be able to inspect it before hand. And, most reputable shops will back up their engines with a guarantee... end of story.

i actually talked to Flash Options about her and they said that she is legit... she buys the clips/engines from them and sells them on her own.. so apparently they are in this together!!
