Default HELP! LED Tails from K2Motor???

i know that there's been a few members already that has purchased their LED inner/outer tail lights from k2motorsports from EBAY. i placed an order as well, and the day after i placed the order and made the payment - i see that he's no longer a registered user on ebay, his business website is giving me an error. i have sent him an ebay message as well as an email and no response. i made the purchase and paid on march 13th, of 2007. what should i do?

Can you not email them? I went thru my emails and dug up their address ebay@k2motor.com

If they still do not respond, you can file the paypal refund claim thing after like a week or so. I'm sure they will still ship it out, but either way I hope you get your issue resolved. It's weird I was the first one ever to order from them(Nov '06) and I got my lights the same week. The next few people that ordered also got their stuff pretty fast. It seems like people that have been buying from them recently have had to wait a long time. I don't think I can recommend buying from them anymore.

That's the beauty of paypal. It's pretty hard to get screwed. I'd wait a couple more days. I've heard about alot of people ordering from k2m without problem.

I had a problem with K2. Jeff had good luck with K2 so I ordered from him, I waited over 2-3 weeks. It took some "legal" sounding complaints for the transaction to speed up. Maybe it was a backorder but buy it now means NOW....


Good luck with this I have his adress and number if you need it let me know

It took me 3 months to get any money back from my bad deal on ebay via PP on an unrelated issue.

Maybe someone hecked into his ebay account. Last time someone hecked into my ebay account and i received an email from ebay showing some transaction i never made, ebay temporary freeze all my accounts including paypal and all transactions to fix it. It shouldn't take him more than 2-3 days to get back to you. This happened to me and during that time i was supposed to ship out an item and the buyer was told from ebay that i'm no longer a member for something like that. Don't sweat about it, ur good!

actually, no it is NOT hard to get screwed with paypal. i was buying some rims from a CL member "chubb74" for $500. I sent the $500 to him via paypal. he never sent the rims. i filed a claim with paypal, they only gave me back $175. you tell me if its pretty hard to get screwed by paypal.

PAYPAL =

Kharizma,
My guess is that k2 has 3 strikes, and that is why they are no longer an ebay registered user. I checked their feedback, and although they have a grip of positive feedback, they also have a couple hundred negatives. So, at this point, they may or may not ship your item. Either way, their account has been suspended.

Mar 13- now is only about 6 days; I think at the 10 day mark, if you still havent heard from them (or received your item), you should file a paypal dispute.

I agree $428.00 is a lot of money to give as a gift and what makes it so bad is the lights are very good product as you may already know I know in Chicago we had some serious winter weather and they have not let me down ,to take you chance with someone else on Ebay would be a crap shoot unless they are JP Wise tails I hope you resolve your problem.

I would maybe 3 more days. It took me about 1 1/2 weeks to get my tails from him. Hope you get your tails soon because if it's a claim then yes Paypal sucks and you'll probably get $150 out of that $425 back.
