Default Update on guy on Audiworld selling parts...

He emailed me back and here is the email that he sent and what I wrote back. He's getting desperate to make excusses, haha.
The first emails were in the last post further down today.

That is fine, I should have no problem selling my stuff anyways, I will not be able to send you the ecu prior to payment, maybe there is another way, Im sorry I do not like to get ripped off just like every other joe

I wrote back:

There is another way, just send it UPS with there COD option, that means no delivery without payment. I'm trying to make this easy and safe for both of us.

Default Don't you have to pay the COD before you can open the package?

It'd be hard to tell a Motronic from half a phone book without opening the box.

Default kday is right...

if he's a shifty as many here think I wouldn't put it past him to send something else. Then again he may not be that smart come to think of it. Didn't change his name all that much in his ads. But I'd sure hate to lose $350 USD on a scammer

Default I bought his RS2'd S4 from him, I've been trying to get a hold of him since with no luck.

He owe's me paperwork and a couple other things that were supposed to be included in the deal. Well he has disappeared it seems. Also he has changed the spelling of his name, on Audifans he is Jerod Tilford, and over here he is using Jerry Tilferd. Why the different names? The title for the car shows his name is Jared Tilford so I am assuming thats his real name. I would love to get a hold of him to see if he's going to hold up his end of the deal, but its not looking good. Please feel free to call me and I'll give you all the details of our communications and we'll see if things are on the up and up. 309-251-9096 Caesar

Default can you stop payment on a money order /cashiers check?

because you can specify that UPS accepts only those and not a personal check
