That's the reason right there not to rush leaving feedback. Wait a week or two before leaving feedback. A lot of stuff can happen during that time.

So, what did you buy, and how did it break? I like to be informed about possible bad sellers, but to slam without more info doesn't work too well.

Default Hmmm, not so sure about this one.

I'm not that experienced with ebay, maybe around 50 purchases. I've have had 3 disputes and all 3 were in my favor. I'm an ebay fan because of their help. Also the seller that Driv3rx is referring to has a high score and a fair amount of transactions..........I don't think we have the whole picture here.

EXACTLY..I learned in an early transaction no Paypal, no deal. I bought 2 lots of used Muskie baits froma woman who also had a on line party store. She, supposedly, couldn't get the billing right for combining shipping so I just mailed a check with the right amount to Carbondale IL in mid winter and told her mail when the check clears. For 68 bucks she shut down her online operaton & now has a pissed of Jack Pine Savage looking forward to calling her 3 years later and telling her I'm coming driving by & coming off the Interstate for my crankbaits and "bucktails".
Biotch.

As for the item bought, by looking at the negative feedback left for the seller by "driv3rx1958", the "view item" link shows "Memphis Shades Custom Lowers Hardware HARLEY SPRINGER (#300469526115)", winning bid @ 99 cents. Also, no returns.

Default I'll assume you don't know much about some of the tank emblems

The Soft tail deluxe has the wide wing emblem that curves with the tank. Therefore each side has different curvature to it. So, no I'm not joking. Look it up.

Forgot to put what I bought.they were lowers brackets from memphis shades bracket on the right side broke after less than 1 hour riding.sold as new unopened.Contacted seller he was not only no help but said once I installed he was not responseable,I feel if you sell as new and it breaks right away you should replace or refund.since I contacted him,no results opened case with Ebay,they refunded full amount just this morning.If I sold something that broke that soon I would try to make things right wether sold on Ebay,craigslist,this or other forums.!st picture shows how it's supposed to be 2nd picture shows how it broke.
