Negative Review for japukspares, Never Received my item/refund. Options

[955SFE]

japukspares = Dan.

So this whole ordeal started out on March 22, 2014.


I was interested in buying a facelift bumper and a full set of headlights from japukspares. Transaction started out by purchasing him the set of headlights.


about a week later I received the headlights, Low/High. Opened the box High beams were fine. Both Low beams had broken tabs, which broke off during transit. Pm'd japukspares.


I was only interested in the driver side low beam. So he ended up refunding me for the passenger side low beam and he shipped me a new driver side low beam.
Another week passed. Received my low beam headlight....he sent the passenger side rather than the driver side I needed. Pm'd him again. I kept the passenger side low beam and he was going to sent the driver low beam. I was nice enough to sell the passenger side and sent him $32 to sent me the driver side low beam I needed.


Fast forward....July 5, 2014. Still haven't received the driver side low beam...


July 29, 2014....


August 5, 2014
No response from Japukspares even though he has logged in.

My car is fixed. I had bought the facelift bumper from Japukspares which I did receive. I ended up buying the drive side low beam from JPATTT (Thank you)


I was in accident. My front end got messed up. Hood was bent in half. All headlight's tabs broke (passenger side low beam survived). My bumper got cracked and paint got messed up. Car was still drive-able. I just pushed the hood down to make it flat again. I couldn't go out at night due to the lights. There were times where I did risk going out at night. I got pulled over once but the officer was nice enough to let me go.


I know, lots of reading.

Sorry to hear about your experience with Japukspares. I have never had any of the problems that you experienced. Ive bought hundreds of dollars worth of parts from him for a while now and still no complaints. Plus he has has the cheapest shipping ever which is a plus since hes over the pond and im in the states. But did everything get straightened out though?

His prices are great. Communication was great but in the end communication was getting slow. I pm'd him that I just wanted a refund on July 29, 2014. He was online today and He has been online for the last few days. I never got my part, money or a response. Someone else recently left him a negative review (he didn't receive his item either)

Yea I left a negative review I paid him 220 dollars for rear brakes and front calipers also mud flaps but since April he has been avoiding me and he mentioned all four brakes would be in good condition but the front calipers were extremely rusted so I trough them away bc I was mad I couldn't believe the bad quality of the parts he also send mud flaps they were ok for the price however I have not received my rear disk brake calipers I leave him a message almost every day asking for a refund but he won't answer I guess I paid 220 dollars for some ok quality mud flaps this member needs to be band from the site I'm an honest hard working man that could take this loss as a learning lesson but seeing you got ripped off makes me really doubt the honesty and moral integraty of japukspares hopefully I get my refund one day or he gets band and no more bad business deal's.

[ClevelandGaint]

That sounds horrible, sorry about your luck. It happens sometime i guess. Theres alot of members here who have purchased from Japukspares and have received their items in good condition. This may sound like a dumb question but did you at least ask for pictures before you bought them? If not shame on you for that. Never take someones word if you can see the product being sold. It just good business to ask those questions like pictures, hows the wear and tear on the items. Theres quite a few sellers on this forum who have been in the same boat you have been. Buyers just need to beware always when purchasing from someone they do not know. Hopefully you can get a refund or the correct parts. Good luck with future purchases.

[japukspares]

I am very sorry for the problems that have occured here.

Please be assured that I will sort out anybody who is waiting for a part that for some reason hasn't received it.

I think there are two people by the looks of things who are waiting on some bits according to this thread. ( I know that there is a member called TheEnd who has an order going out with me this week too who has waited a little while)

I have dropped you all a PM and hopefully we can resolve any issues as I would like to continue to help members on here. I don't come on here as much these days as I did when I first joined up.

But I will be online a lot over the next week to get any issues fully resolved.

97Cecilia - I have sent you a PM. I am very sorry about missing your PM's, but have replied today. I am sorry the front brakes were not good quality, but I hope we can sort something out with the rear ones.

955SFE - I have also sent you a PM. Again, appologies for sending the wrong side headlight, it was a slight missunderstanding with RHD and LHD side of things.
I had forgotten to send you the replacement light. I have sent you a PM and hopefully we can sort this out.

I guess its. shame on me then. But honestly if the seller says they work and in good condition we all know what that means that !they should work! right? I shouldnt have to ask for pictures mostly if we are writing to each other and in a forum were everyone is trying to help each other acomplish there goals I wouldnt do that to annyone even if I didnt know you. But I guess thats just me. sorry for complaining so much but it looks like I lost my money bc I dont want anymore parts I just want a refund thats all, just for the rear brakes he can keep the money for the front brakes that I through away bc they didnt work.

sorry but being frustrated is not good it makes me look ugly and sound ugly sorry guys.

How rusty is rusty? Got pictures?

Surface rust isn't an issue that affects how calipers function.

How rusty is rusty? Got pictures? Surface rust isn't an issue that affects how calipers function.

Extremly rusty but that's not what made me trough them away like you said rust could be removed however if the cylinder in the caliper that goes in and out when pressing the break it was stuck so mostlikely they need it to be rebuild and I don't have that knowledge plus like I said before he mentioned they were in good condition so I expected that nothing more nothing less I didn't care about the rust but about the functionality of the break caliper that's all and like I said I'm not trying to argue with anyone I just want people to be mature and take responsibility for there actions also I trough them away so I don't want the money for that part. I want a refund for the rear brakes I purchased but never received them. Japukspares told me he had a tracking number for the package I never received any tracking information from him he mentioned that package was insured so if it got lost they would refund him the cash I never hurd anything else about that either And he said they would arrive in two weeks tops its been since April of 2014 I think we're late on his dead line right.? But whatever I guess it happens nice learning lesson for me and hopefully others learn from my mistakes.

[The_enD]

I've been waiting for weeks.

[97cecilia]

I've been waiting for weeks.

I know bro, remember I bought the fog lights from you (The_enD) And your package got to me way faster even thou it was coming from a little bit further right? I'm sorry to hear that I hope you get your stuff soon bc me well I learn to expect the worst but hope for the best. I hope to get my refund.

[97cecilia]

well here is the last time I heard from him and what he said he would do but like always I'm still waiting. bump

Hi Ulysses,

I am very happy to sort you out with whichever parts I can.

At the moment, I have sold the sideskirts so I can't help you with those i'm afraid. ( But I will let you know as soon as I get another set in stock.

I can help you out with the rear brake conversion though as I have 2 x celicas here that have the full set up on them that I am parting out.

I can also do you a complete front caliper with carrier for th at200 as well. I also have the mudflaps for all 4 corners and the ciglighter unit.

Here is a brake down of prices for you:

1. 4 x mudflaps = $20
2. Front caliper carrier = $20
3. Both rear complete hubs with disks = $30 each = $60
4. Both rear calipers complete with pads = $60
5. Cig lighter unit = You can have for FREE

Postage = $40

Total for everything shipped= $200.

It would be Wednesday when everything is shipped out as I would need to remove the rear hub set up from the car and I am back at the yard on Tuesday.

If you are happy with all this, then just paypal the money to my email address which is:

************@hotmail.co.uk

and I will ship them out to you with FedEX an dprovide fully tracked shipping.

Thank you Dan.



Well I guess I cannot dispute the payment with PayPal anymore I trusted you. And you said I would get a tracking number for the rear brakes and that never happened you said they might have them on hold by customs then you mentioned you had insurance on the package but never returned my money at least what I paid for the rear brakes since you did manage to send me the mudflaps and front caliper brackets look I'm really tired of asking and bothering you but I work hard for the money I send you and it hurts to know there is a 6gc member out there like you.

Well I guess keep the money and hopefully it services you will stealing from others. Just please stop doing that to people and be honest if you don't have the parts.

Good bye take care and sorry for being so annoying I was just trying to ask for what is mine that's all. Hopefully you find it in your heart and decide to do the right thing


Hi,

I am very sorry with the problems that I have caused you with the rear brake disks that you wanted.

I had a sent a set out to you and I am not sure where they have ended up.

What I will say is that i am very sorry and if there are any other parts that you would like I will send them on to you instead.

I would need a week to get the parts out to you but hopefully we can sort something out.

I have got a lot of parts in stock, so please just ask and I will provide full tracking details and keep you up to date on orders/

Yours Japukspares





I appreciate the offer but its been so long since I made the order that I lost hope and trust in you sorry for being brutally blunt but I would never do such thing to anyone sorry for the harsh words. I hope you could put your self in my shoes and see what you have done to me was just not right at all. also you mentioned the a while ago that you had a tracking number for the rear brakes and that you had insurance encase they got lost and you also mentioned something about customs keeping them or holding them. I'm not sure but a refund would be the best.

I hope you could find it in your heart to do the right thing.

take care

I completely understand that you no longer want any parts and I will give you the refund instead.

Can you please give me until the weekend to sort out the payment and I will send it over to you.

Thank you and again I am very sorry for the issues that you had with this transaction.

So just wondering when will I get my refund not sure what day you wanna pay me back. I would like to know an exact day if you don't mind bc well it is 120 dollars total that would be refunded back to me however I'm still unsure if I'm going to receive my refund? Please no more waiting just get it over with so I can stop bothering you.

Hi,
You will be refunded on Friday the 15th. I'm sorry I can't send it beforehand but I am just being honest with my time scale for you.
You will receive it then though. I hope that is ok.



Hello?
Just quick question. were you able to send my refund or will I have to wait anothert month?

Remember that we're 5 to 8 hours time different than the UK. Tomorrow for us isn't tomorrow for him.

[japukspares]

Thank you for the email address, that will make it easier for me, rather than trawling through my paypal history.

We have a time difference in the UK, so appologies if you think I haven't got back to you quickly enough. I will issue you the refund for the rear brakes.

Can you remember what I quoted you for the rear brake set up?

As I know that you purchased the fronts at the same time.

Just reply via PM as it is probably easier for all parties at the moment.

[97cecilia]

yea 5 to 9 hour difference ahead of US time zone not behind US time zone. So that means? Im typing this message at 3:10am saturday, august/16/2014 and while im typing this message its 11:18 AM Saturday, August/16/2014 Time in United Kingdom if I'm not mistaken?????

So my refund should of been here by now but its already saturday, august\16\2014 3:14 AM and no refund yet???? I wonder ???? am I just getting the run around or was he being honest??????

here is the info you requested japukspares. you qouted me $200 dollars and I paid $220 dollars but all I want is the rear brake refund $120.00 dollars anything else is a lost for me.

It's 6 hours later there than it is here. So if I sent a message to him now he'd be reading it at 9pm at night.
http://www.worldtimezone.com/
I use this site when I'm working with sellers around the world so I can keep track of things.

[japukspares]

I replied to your previous PM, which is basically the same as the last message on here.

I have refunded you just now as promised. I have sent the funds through as £'s as it wouldn't let me do it as $'s for some reason ?

I sent over £74.14 which eqauted to $120 exactly acording to paypal.

I hope this all ok.

Again, appologies for the issues we had.

You can reply via pm if you prefer.

[97cecilia]

Pay pal was wrong i got only 115.54 dollars but is ok thank GOD im done with this problem you wont hear from me ever again bud. Oh yea and for you Bitter thanks for the info. I guess its usefull.

Im just happy that after 3 months i got my money back. I really thought i lost it. But thank God i got it. And japukspares you made to many promises so for to pay me back, 3 months after was not keeping your promise. It was more like you got cought doing this not to one person but a few that you had no alternative but to pay us back. I hope you keep better communication with the rest of the 6gc members

Jesus ... Can the thread be closed now..

[The_enD]

Why should it be closed?

I received tracking for my parts yesterday after a few week/months of wait time. Hope Dan fixes his issues with the delay.
