Default Junkyard vendor rant: German Auto Dismantlers-Buyer Beware

Bought part from them for 150$ in mid-August. On second look parts happened to be bad. So told them to give me a refund. Easier said then done. After 2.5 months of calling, talking to manager, numerous promises to "let the accounting person know", 'we are moving- give us another week', 'it will be done next week' still no refund. Now I have to move to Europe myself, short 150$. I have no time to notify BBB etc, so just letting fellow AWers know. There were a couple of good transactions before, although stuff was a little worse than promised, but I guess they just can't return money. :-(

What type of part? This is pretty general.

Default You get what you pay for. No free lunches.

Sucks that you had to learn the hard way, but IMO, it's only worth it to buy from trusted sources.
