OT: e-bay scammer warning



Yup that's him. That's the asshole. If I ever make it up to PA
(which I will next summer) I'm going to stop by and pay him a visit
and -politely- ask for that shipping recipt, you know I wouldn't want
to incriminate myself or anything. I wonder if this guy shows up for
any shows or anything up on the east coast...hrm oh well, damn I really
wanted that wing, but I guess the lesson here is that you can't miss what
you never had? I'm just betting that asshole still has the wing on his car
or gave it to a buddy of his after he sold it to me, they are rare wings so
if anyone sees one, ask 'em where they got it :)

I think my rocco is destined to be wingless, this is the second time I have
had a wing due to me and I never ended up with it.
