  1. Well it appears the address I have here is where the seats I received were collected from by the freight company so that's likely where he lives but turning up at his place is unlikely to resolve anything (plus im about 6hrs away) and could make matters worse (who knows what kind of low life freak he is). I'm working on a few other things so we'll see how we go. At the very least he's not trading right now.

  3. Rain will be OK, less stress on my car
  4. You sound burned =\ I'm not expecting much from eBay beyond canning the account and co-operating with enquiries that come their way from the authorities. See how we go. I know it's only $500 but this type of stuff really gets me fired up. **EDIT** A mate of mine just finished dealing with PayPal and got his 1K back from a dodgy transaction. Had to jump through some hoops though.
  5. Cheers mate, yeah was my dumb fault for using direct transfer but lesson learned and hopefully this helps someone else. If I do end up stuck with the R32 GTST seats I might make'em into office chairs. Fingers crossed though.
  6. I'm in the lengthy process of trying to get a refund or my GT-R seats (I received R32 GTST seats) from drifterslovenissan on eBay. This user had low but perfect feedback when I bought the GT-R seats ($500 worth as the pic showed them to be in excellent condition) but now has very bad feedback as he continues to try and scam others. eBay is taking action at present so I don't think anything is for sale right now but I wanted to share my experience to help others avoid a similar fate. I've used eBay since 2003 and never had an issue, I have 100% positive feedback etc I made the mistake of using a direct transfer to speed up the process as I wanted the seats fast for an upcoming drift day, yes my mistake and I'll wear that. Use PayPal always! OK so the issues I have are these... (A mate of mine is a cop so I'm working with him on this too) I'm not able to pursue criminal action as I was sent "something" so it becomes a Civil matter instead but to pursue civil action I need the correct contact details. The phone number listed on the ebay account goes to a tafe institute in Sydney but they haven't heard of the name listed on the ebay account or the surname listed on the bank account (which shows up when you do the transfer) The phone number listed on the con note for the seats isn't answered but has an address of 45 Cooks Ave Canterbury and the business name is called The Ultimate Riders (google street view shows a residential house at this address. The bank account used is for an account held at the NAB in Campsie (one suburb over). But to get proper contact info from the bank or from ebay (maybe his credit card info on paypal or ebay etc) I need police intervention but to get that it has to be a criminal matter which it isn't. The email account listed, [email protected] is not being answered either. The saga continues. I'm fully aware that it was my mistake to use direct deposit so I'd appreciate if people could hold back on the "that was so stupid using direct transfer" I already know lol I'm just hoping to help others avoid the same trap from this guy, hopefully eBay has stepped in to stop him trading as he was relisting all the same items including the seats, same pics same auction etc. We'll see how I go but I'm doubtful of getting anything back. In related news, I have some very expensive R32 GTST seats here in pretty good condition lol **EDIT** These are the listed contact details User ID: drifterslovenissan Name: Peter Grinsberg Company: City: Sydney State: New South Wales Country: Australia Phone: 0297158473 Taht phone number goes to OTEN at a TAFE Institude in Sydney somewhere.

  9. I work in IT and I tend to put my hand up for old systems when they are being thrown out (working or not) as I use to parts or combine systems and give working PC's to friends etc. The time has come to have a big clean out. I've listed prices against things but there's also a list of gear I need for my track car at the bottom that I'd be happy to trade for. Make me an offer and we'll sort something out. I'd much prefer pickup with this stuff (I'm in Albury Wodonga) and the older and non-functioning systems will be sent as parts if not being picked up (no case included) you can have the case if you pickup though or if you really want it you can pay to have it sent. The first two machines will be sold complete. Preference will be given to those who can pickup, as I just dont have the time or want the hassle of sending off all this gear. However I realise there's gonna be some postage involved. I'll be more willing to lower the price for local pickup though. Most systems also have Power supplies but these aren't included unless you really want them (no extra cost though besides postage). In a few weeks whatever is left over will be binned and people are welcome to come and get stuff then too but I won't be sending anything at that point. I have a bunch of old optical drives lying about too that you can have with any system for no extra if you like. Be sure to mention if you want any cables etc and I'll see what I have No HDD unless stated as I use them or bin them straight away if they are faulty OK here we go! ***Complete systems*** 1x Media Centre PC - $400 ono Small form factor (Black cube case with clear perspex windows on all sides, case and perspex have various scratches all over) Case also includes blue led display that shows case temperature.

  10. We've booked a cabin and we're in with the rest of you so should be fun. We'll just be staying the Saturday night and will drive up in the morning on Saturday and meet you all at Winton. All of my friends bailed on me so it'll just be me and the missus this time but if DECA shep was anything to go by there's more than enough friendly people around to make up for it. Side note: The 18th is my birthday so I might be in fine form on the Saturday night EDIT: As this will be my first sprint in this car and I barely know it I'm going to do Driver Training Do you get to choose the Trainer?
  11. Legend, thanks Bec
  12. What's the go with accomodation, from what I can see there's only a few places left with those dates available. I can see there's also a few self contained cottage things available for 77-105 a night which cuold be good if people are interested in sharing.
  13. First timers, like me, might want to take a quick look at this doc from the WRX forums http://www.wrx.com.au/motorsport/Motorspor...es_for_2009.doc
  14. I think I need to take a look at the full regulation so I know what is required of my car etc. Where are these? I'm assuming these docs will also give me a full run down on each class and what's included in driver training (as in time any timed laps or not)
  15. Hmm ok, so who does the training and how is it conducted or is DT a fancy way of saying non timed laps by yourself?
  16. Ahh OK. So is Driver training it's own class and if I go for DT does that mean I don't do timed laps with everyone else? Does it also mean I'd have to pay the entry fee of 165 and the DT fee of 135?
  17. Hah, yeah maybe. So is that definitely the class I'll be in as I've not even seen a list of available choices.
  18. "Over 3 litre" ??? Is there some noob/novice class for people who have only done 500k's in the car since they bought it
  19. The Supp Regs don't have a list of classes, though I'm pretty sure I'll be in the Novice catagory.
  20. Gotta get rid of these guys, need a new turbo before the SAU track day on the 18th Rims for sale
