I emailed him numerous times and even called and talked to him about the parts and was told over and over that the fender was not bent I was very specific about this. Was told other parts were in good shape. I emailed him back and here was his 1st response before I accused him of scamming me.
THE MIRRORS I BOUGHT OF EBAY FROM ROUGH RIDERS THEY TOLD ME THEY WERE FOR A 1965 DREAM ALL THE PARTS I BOUGHT OFF E BAY IN SAME SHAPE, THEY ARE IN REAL GOOD CONDITION FOR A BIKE THAT IS 44 YEARS OLD,I SENT YOU PICS OF BIKE AND PARTS ,I SOLD PARTS TO PEOPLE FROM THE 305 FORUM AND NEVER HAD A PROBLEM,USED PARTS ARE USED PARTS,I TOLD YOU THEY WERE IN REAL GOOD SHAPE BUT NOT SHOW,THATS THE WAY I BOUGHT THEM,THATS THE WAY I SOLD THEM,AS IS,IF I KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN I WOULDNT TOOK THE BIKE APART,AND THATS THE PROBLEM WITH SELLING TO PEOPLE IN DIFFERENT STATES,YOU WOULDNT BE ABLE TO BUY OFF EBAY FOR LESS,AND I CHARGED YOU LESS FOR WHAT I PAID FOR PARTS,USED PARTS.
