He's not that far from me, can you give me a bit more information like Full Name, what pulley's they were, and whether or not you had any confirmation they had been delivered to them. Be nice if you could send any other correspondence from and to them to me, if easier email me at escortcos@hotmail.co.uk

Thanks lads for your replies thanks a lot, i am from Greece,and my English is not very good so i can't speak from the phone,so one friend of mine(Englishman) he called him-Mark but he don't gave any positive answer from the phone,and also is not very kind person,for that reason i asked here if any friend is near to this guy to meet him and ask about my pulleys,many thanks to all of you

Finally i don't take my pulleys back,this guy have told me the cost in my first questions to tell me the cost,he told me 5GBP each,so he asked me:

remove steel inserts £12
strip old anodizing £15
anodize £15
packing £10

UPS £28
royal mail £16 only insured up to £40


and told me also :we do not take paypal anymore
you will have to do a bank transfer or a card payment
in his ebay auction says accept paypal!!!!!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cosworth-Y...item4ae61b79b3


so i answered to him,i accept the 5GBP each as he had told from the beggining and postage cost,with other way to keep them!!

i don't know what else to say for this guy,it is one bad experience!

Thanasis sent the pulleys 3 weeks before Christmas for a 7-10 day turnaround and 3 months on this Mark guy from Turbosport kept fobbing him off.

I rang up and the guy was full of excuses and no apologies, even started swearing at me on the last call I had with him.

Thanasis was told £15 for the pulleys and post back, no this Mark is holding him at randsom for his parts.

The biggest pain in the arse is that, because the pulleys have been down there that long Thanasis missed his slot for mapping

Mark from Turbosport is a crook!
