i just brought a stage 2 tubo kit off of "beardyboy" paid 800 quid. if it was 20 quid i would care but yea basically he kept bits for himself the little bits u need etc! and said the turbo had a fewmm of play but said never smoked etc! put it all on in 2 days and tghe turbo seals are absolulty shagged to death! barely boosts! he is a definate scammer! lucky i dont have the fuel to go back up to his house! dont buy anything off him! he said if i needed help he would answer his phone! been off for the last 3 days and ive been texting him but no reply back not answering his phone call. why are there people like him on saxp still he needs to be kicked off or something! badsically been mugged by some twat!!

Please don't say it was sent by gift, and put a claim in to paypal if not
I bet he payed as gift, the charges would have been alot....

He said if he had the fuel to GO BACK UP HIS HOUSE so i would assume he payed cash... if paypal even by gift you still have the right to your money back by going to the bank and makinf a chargeback

You should've checked the item before you handed over cash. Play in the turbine is easy to spot, and missing parts etc shouldve been obvious.
If it was delivered however - I assume you payed via PayPal and covered the fees. If you paid by gift you're screwed.

I have never attempted doing a turbo conversion! So few parts missing is actually hard to spot! Yea paid cash! And I did feel the play in the turbo... Was a few mm... But the thing was wen bolted to the car and oil pumping through! After I switched it off it was solid! Jus only wen I drained the oil to take the turbo off the play was bk! But yea pissed off big time! And I never paid by gift belive me I aint a retard haha! Well maybe a bit but yanoo!! Like I said if I had fuel money etc which I haven't coz I'm fukin skiint from paying 800 quid out! I wuold go back there with a few of my boy and pay him a little visit! But yanoo! Anyone got a turbo for me lool?? Am desperate ffs
