Folded in HALF in an envelope.
I contacted him and he sent me another one, FOLDED IN HALF again.
I returned both of them and swore to never buy from him again.
Just my experience with him.


Wait, the envelope was folded in half or the gasket was folded in half and fit into a smaller envelope?

It happened to me too. It's your carrier. I'd complain to the PO. It's not his fault.

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationPut in my Dyna coils. Sounds crisper. I was hoping the old 3 OHM coils had a short or something but these are pulling the same power. I ordered A HID kit for my head light. It pulls a lot of power. It is HID on low beam but has a Halogen high beam.

I know I need a good Reg/Rect and will be ordering a Mosfit soon. Hopefully the cheap Reg/Rect I bought didn't ruin my new stater. I sent it back today as well as the CHINESE camera.

I'm shocked. Did you tell him it was folded in half? I have had nothing but good experiences with him.

I just got a e-mail from Stan the gasket supplier. He tells me if he stamps do not fold the PO will try to get additional charges from the recipient for special handling and Priority or express mail covers this type of situation. He sends out another one and if it happens again, it should be reported to the PO. I just ordered a pan gasket and another alternator gasket. The bent one I got, I saved and used a iron with it in the package, then used it. He is one of the few and I will keep using him. B)

I have two more to add to this thread. Nessism for the oil cooler he sent me and kaw-a-holic for the Tach and Speedo he sent to me. Both went out of their way to make sure it was a good deal. Both are assets to this site and I would recommend them any time.
Thanks Guys.

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationAnother to add to this thread. I bought a HID headlight from a seller on eBay. It didn't work. I contacted them and they sent me a relay and harness with a fuse block. Connected directly to the battery and ground. Plugged it in and it works. Blueish light and bright. Should be more noticeable. It has a warranty and we'll see how long it lasts. B)

Had a great experience Mark Oldroyd from Brake Crafters. He is an eBay seller and fellow Kaw rider. He sells quality caliper rebuild kits. I ordered a kit for the rear and front calipers. Only the rear kit showed up(both marked by the post office as delivered) Mark made things right by getting me a kit. He has a store in Cave Creek, AZ so I offered to pick it up. It was a great experience as I got to talk shop with Mark a bit. Thought I would share some pics he sent me of his Lawson he used to race in Europe. After talking with him monday he has decided to get the Lawson back on the road and ready to race. His website is below
