I would not recommend doing business with greenspeed

I made a deal with him for a stock y-pipe, OEM MAF, pair of OEM 95-96 corner lights and a pair of OEM 97-99 corner lights.
I sent payment on a Monday the 10th and he said his next day off would be Friday the 14th and he would ship then which was fine. He didn't ship until Tuesday the 18th though with no communication. He had great communication up until I sent money. Packaging was poor and he didn't use bubble wrap as he said he would.

I received my package today and there was no y-pipe.

The pair of 95-96 corner lights the left one is an aftermarket light and the right one isn't what I would call good condition. The rubber molding on it is beat up.

The pair of 97-99 corner light the right one is an aftermarket light and the left has the same rubber molding issue.

I haven't tested the MAF yet but don't have much faith that it has the mileage he stated or that it's even gonna work.


Here's pictures of the corner lights and box showing the tracking # and that there's no way a y-pipe would fit in the box.

Here's are communication together.

Quote: hey u still lookin for those parts
Quote: yes ai still need a stock y or 2 and 2 Mafs. Also need some corner lights.
Quote: ok i have 1 of each off of a 97. Ill do $60 shipped for both. Paypal is blaccnight84@ gmail.com. Check craigslist in richmond va and you'll see the y pipe under performance y pipe

How does 75 shipped for the y-pipe, maf and the corner lights

let me know when & if to get the parts ready... Thanks

if your serious ill do $60 shipped for the y, maf and corner lights
Quote: Sorry just got in from working in the shop all day.
Are the corner light 95-96 or 97-99 and are they OEM? MAF OEM as well? Any idea of mileage?
Quote: i have two sets of corners 95-96 and 97-99. yeah oem and the maf is oem 83k
Quote: How much for both sets of corner lights, maf and stock y?
Quote: $80 shipped. My paypal is blaccnight84@gmail.com
Quote: OK that works for me. I assume the lights are in good condition with no chips/scratches and the MAF is working properly. Also please package the corner lights and MAF carefully.
Quote: yes corner lights are great. I will package it with those bubbles to insure no damage
Quote: ok My only day off is Friday and Ill send it off then. Probably do express mail
Quote: Im fine with ground wether you use UPS or FedEx. Anything else and it will cost more to ship then I paid. USPS/mail the box will be to big for.

Anyone that had a negative transaction with him needs to be sure to leave itrader accordingly.

I saw a few warning signs IMO, and I'm sorry to see that I guessed right.

In this thread: https://maxima.org/showthread.php?t=666840
I sent him an offer on the ECU.
I asked him if he would sell it to me for $20 considering he was just going to throw it out in his words.
He said $30 and I continued on.
Guess I got lucky.

Waiting on my lousy springs I may have overpaid for, or at least proof of shipping. Seller supposedly shipped on Tuesday June 18.

Well I escalated my PayPal dispute to a claim.
Turns out this guy is a real scammer. The car he is selling parts from and is trying to sell the engine from which he claims has 114k actually has 174k.

Na! I'm the one that can give some true info on the 97 that actually has 174,862 on it to be exact.

His Craigslist ad for the engine. If you notice it was originally posted on 6/10/2013. He purchased the car on 6/16/2013 Fathers Day. All he did was throw a pic of the car after he got it home. He was in contact with me all that week for info about the car.
http://richmond.craigslist.org/pts/3862382349.html

Pic of the actual cluster and true mileage and also the title to the car will prove this as well. Which he does have a title and i'm willing to bet that its still in my wifes name also. Engine was very well taken care of and does have new gaskets and some other parts were replaced. Name:  IMG_0494.jpg

Ya! I wasn't going to insert myself in anything but after seeing how he is continuing to screw people over I figured why not

Unfortunately my money is lost. I was so naive. I listened to him and sent as a gift. Paypal won't allow to file a claim. Don't do business with this guy.

PM maxima_style.
He told me he got his money back when sent as a gift. I don't know how...but ask him.
I NEVER send as a gift to a seller with no or low itrader ratings.
Only trust those that have proven to be trustworthy.
Good luck.

I'll only do gift for someone I've dealt with before, and even then...I'll be more than happy to throw a couple bucks extra for fees to Cover my @ss and buy as goods/services.

What raised my suspicion was when he msged me when he was packaging my item. Then 1 minute later he said he's headed to the post office. Who packages lowering springs in 1 minute?

Greenspeed's last activity was 6/21 at 1:40am. I've been monitoring his account and his threads for the past few days and will continue to do so.

A PM has been sent requesting his attention to this thread. Hopefully he'll come forward and make things right, for all parties involved.

AND NEVER EVER "GIFT" MONEY, ESPECIALLY TO PEOPLE YOU DON'T KNOW!!

another one...
I paid him $25 as a gift through PayPal as well for a tensioner pulley. Haven't heard anything from him since I sent payment on 6/11. Gmail is saying his email account doesn't exist either. I guess I got scammed. What a shame...I saw he is a "Senior member" status and thought he was legit.

I really hope he sends me the part as he said he would. My car has been down for 2 weeks now.

Itrader is what you should go off of.

Not the member status.

And TheWizard gives great advice.

If i knew he was screwing people over when he picked up the car, i wouldve never dealt with him.

Everything that comes out of this guys mouth is lies.
How can you sell people stuff and claim it to be in great condition when you haven't even purchased the car yet and don't until almost a full week later.

Looks like he was active on Facebook 3 hours ago.

This guy is shady as hell. His profile pic is of the car I sold him. I actually sent him the pic the day I decided to part it out, to show him what it looked like before the wreck. The guy I bought it from sent it to me the week I bought it, I a couple more and can get him to vouch for that aswell. Also his fb account is under Errol Adams, dude told me his name was Jamal. I cant vouch for any other parts he is selling, but I can vouch for any part off of a 97 I bet he is selling. I'm willing to bet they are off of the car in his profile pic. And I'm pretty damn sure of that.

If I was one of the people he scammed, it would be one of two things a *** beating or the cops would be at his door step. Like I said before I wasn't going to get into this, but this just pisses me off.

I'll try to help out anybody I can with info on the car if they need it. just let me know

Anybody interested in his Chesterfield County record?

I just got finished reporting all of his craigslist postings to craigslist along with a link to this thread. Now if they do anything about it like remove the ads is remained to be seen.
