Does anybody know who Ebay user txvetteparts is?
I contacted this guy three days ago asking about a part he didn't have listed and if he combines shipping, then he responded two days ago saying he had the part and he combines shipping. So two days ago I responded with a list of more parts I needed and asked for a phone number to talk to get everything straightened out and he never responds. I ended up buying a part yesterday from him when the auction ended and sent him another inquiry about the parts I needed and still no response. Crying out loud this is no way to run a business and I'm having the nicest weather of the year in northern MN and my car is off the road waiting for parts. People need to get their $hit in gear and not leave people hanging. It's probably a lazy employee not doing his job or something like that.
According to his Ebay account he is in Waco, TX. I did a google on texas Corvette Parts Waco and one salvage yard comes up called Uptmor Corvette Parts. Maybe I'll just give them a try.

Let me get this right, you e-mailed yesterday and you are throwing a tantrum today because he hasn't replied? Really?
I have purchased parts from the place several times and never had a problem, if that puts your mind at ease.

I would guess that if the car is off the road "waiting parts" it's likely been weeks or maybe months "waiting"! A glance at the "calendar" might have given you a "hint" that good weather was likely coming soon!
I don't know that I'd blame the "lazy employee" but I'd say you do understand "LAZY"!

toptech, no, you do not have it right and I'm not throwing a "tantrum." I said I originally responded two days ago and he hasn't written back yet, I sent a followup message yesterday. Actually I responded in the morning two days ago and if I don't hear back from him today it is going to be three working days without a response and throw in two more days since the weekend is coming. I am not throwing a tantrum, I am stressed out because we only get about a month of very good weather each year in northern MN, it really sucks when you have a car sitting in the garage waiting for parts while the sun is shining and it is above 70.
Goldcylon, Ebay no longer lets people see that info even if you are a buyer/seller. All I get is the email option.

WVZR1, who do you think you are you big mouth a$$? I just bought this car so shut the hell up. If you don't have anything but insults to add then don't respond to my posts. F'n jerk.

Its not worth the argument. This is the level you go to in the pre dispute phase where both members are contacted and the information I stated earlier is exchanged.
And yes it does.
You are confusing the ask the seller a question option which is not what I said. Ive been an Ebay member since early 1997 with almost a 1300 feedback rating so I kinda know what im talking about

This business, txvetteparts, seems to have everything I need to get this car on the road and at a fair price so I would like to have a conversation with the place to get this straightened out instead of dragging it out for another week before the parts are even shipped.
I would just appreciate a return email from the guy in a reasonable time or better yet a phone number. I would be more understanding if it was an individual who has a life outside eBay but a company that sells parts all day long should be able to respond fairly quickly.
I was just hoping somebody here knew what the name of the place was so I could make a phone call and get this taken care of. I didn't expect a litany of insults and assumptions about me as a person.
I don't know exactly what the delay is at this business that is preventing them from having prompt communication. I thought having an inept employee is the most likely scenario since I want to believe the business doesn't do this all the time. My apologies for taking a guess at the problem.
