OK, now we are getting somewhere.
I did not say that you did the work. I bought this ECU "untouched" for a reason. I wanted to have the work done by a pro. There was a loose screw on the cover, and having done my homework, I know what a modified ECU looks like.
I can tell you this. There is a jumper wire that you connect to make a chip active. That wire has been clipped. The chip socket is inactive. This ECU may work just fine, as you said. Thing is, I want a socketed ECU. However, the work doesn't look good enough to trust. I did not touch any part of the internals. If I added that jumper to test it, I would be modifying the ECU, which I don't want to do. I wanted to send the ECU back to you in the EXACT condition that it came to me. All you have is my word, correct, but look at my feedback. I don't have nearly 90 positive transactions with 100% positive by screwing people. That is better than my word, it's my whole Ebay history.
him:
see now I know you're full of shit for 2 reasons. A
that is the same computer, I asked the last guy I bought it from to use his picture, so the numbers match and B
you say it had a loose screw..BULLSHIT!!!!!! that was the first thing I checked when I got it so now you're definitely beat and you keep slipping on what you did while you were in there, you opened and noticed this that and the other, well I asked around the computer you bought even if a socket was installed without a chip it works on a closed loop basically factory setting...which is what I sold it as, a untouched I.E factory modeled computer, which I am not conceding that it was anything but a factory computer with nothing installed until you got it and opened it up. But it functions in that capacity alone it's intended described purpose, nothing more, it was not sold as a modified computer why do you expect it to perform that way???? Also how are you going to pay more for a non socketed computer than one already socketed????? With the socket installed that leaves you to just plug in your custom chip to change the programming of the computer. Basically here's the meat of my arguement...you say it was "touched" Me and the previous owner say bullshit it was pulled out of a stock running car and then sold twice. So with your 90 feedback whoopdee do, between me and him we can account where the com has been since leaving the stock car...so that would put it back onto your shoulders because you are claiming the numbers don't match well that is not possible because it's been bought and sold twice now..and that pic tells the story of what we both recieved it's you that is claiming different. You guys will never learn I'M NOT THE ONE..the one that gave me the neg before tried to scam me into paying extra shipping on a listing he quoted "free shipping" in well he got no money and a nasty negative. Your insignificant negative will not phase me I have one already from a loser scammer...but there goes your perfect lil feedback doesn't it??? The one your bragging about, just like the last scammer, well we see where that got him. My suggestion take your perfectly working computer that you bought...and have a merry christmas, give ebay and paypal my regards, and realize they will do nothing for you..you received what you payed for plain and simple.
me:
You listed in your auction that this ECU was Unopened, and ready for a chip to be installed by a pro. You sent me a different ECU than that in the picture.
I am not going back on anything. I did not touch one part of that ECU on the inside. I merely checked to make sure that I was getting what I paid for. Sure, at first I was like "cool, it's already socketed."
Then I started looking closer, without touching anything. The work is crap. Your seller knows this. Of course he's not going to tell you he lied to you. That ECU had one screw that was noticeably loose. I didn't even need a screwdriver for it.
I don't want a factory setting ECU, but I didn't want a messed up one. You sold me a junk ECU. Now man up, and make good on your auction. You undoubtedly have no sense of honest trade. I gave you $140 of my hard earned money for a product, which you misrepresented. You may not have even known, but I don't know that. I don't really care.
I just want my money back. I don't care about your precious little negative. I do not try to intimidate others in order to steal from them. However, thanks for sending me all those nasty little letters. I'm sure Ebay will take them into consideration.
