ended - but when I got back to town the muffler was already sent back (according to the courier) and also the dumb a$$ courier people were trying to deliver it to the downstairs tenant (chineese) who didnt know what the hell they were talking about - man that was SUCH a bummer and wish I could have been there to see it all through...however my utmost respect to you and thanks for trying since your a real sincere and cool guy. Hope we can chat sometime...it's good to know there are people like you either though soo many scammers and fake a$$ punks out there...

Well, I suppose that could be an explaination... I guess it might explain who the woman was that slammed the door in the Fed-Ex guy's face and said there was no COD money...

Oh well. I ended up losing $40 of shipping costs on the deal, but I was still able to sell it for more than I paid for it, so it wasn't a total loss.

Thanks for the response... I've always been curious what happened. I guess it would have ended differently had you been in town.

Later...
