So I sent carneymike a note about the broken part...here is his reply:

thank you for the pictures, the items shown were not the items i put in that package the one shows scratches. the motor was pulled and stored on a garage, a fem months later i pulled the plugs wires and coils AND PACKAGED THEM THAT NIGHT due to the fact i knew they would sell...was the package in tact torn or did it looked resealed...if so I would open a case with the shipping company. I would never sell anything broken and there was no way I could had broken on my end I apologize for the issue and I will assist whit whatever I can do to help. Keeping in mind my return policy due to the fact people return the items they had that they bought replacements for them. I do also have pictures of all 6 coils the night i pulled before packaging that shows no damage to any portion of all of them

Pay Pal can fix this..! OH.. did you contact Ebay with his postage surcharge.. They would like to know also I'd bet.

And don't forget the NEGATIVE feedback.. that always looks nice to future buyers! Add in the postage extra with the comment!

I sent him a note via eBay letting him know if he doesn't make this right, I will leave negative feedback, and escalate the issue...

Couldn't hurt.. since he's probably done this more than once and still on Ebay.. I'd say he probably "bullies" his way till called on it..

Guess at least on the "bright side" you did get your wires and 5 coil packs? That does at least put you on the plus side of the deal doesn't it?

Here is his response to my note:

like I said in the message I will file a claim with the shipping co. I feel like there was nothing else I could had done...my packing was sold if the package was damaged then that's the issue but I have pics of the items with no damage so open all the claims against me you like the no return policy will cover mel again sorry hope to figure this out

So, no responsibility for the incident whatsoever... guess I will have to do something...

Did you inform Ebay of his "added shipping" practice? I sent out three wrenches to 3 different locations yesterday for 22 bucks..

Indeed, I did...along with the 'item not as described' issue...

I've decided that Mr. Carney is not the nicest of people:

Seller's message:
"the item sold was described correctly...many times when I allowed refunds people sent me back there broken item back and kept the item i sent, so i do not issue refunds. the buyer had a chance to look at the picture and ask any questions and request more pics if they like...THE ITEM I SHIPPED WAS IN PERFECT WORKING ORDER THERE WILL BE NO REFUND OF ANY SORT YOU BOUGHT AT YOUR OWN RISK ASK MORE QUESTIONS ASK FOR MORE PICS ITS NOT MY JOB TO DO YOUR RESEARCH YOU BOUGHT KNOWING THERE IS NO REFUNDS AND YOU WAIVED THAT RIGHT. MY FEEDBACK IS NEAR PERFECT THE ONLY BLEMISH WAS A WINDOW I BROKE PULLING OUT AND THE BUYER WAS MAD I HAVE MANY REPEAT CUSTOMERS. SORRY FOR WHATEVER YOUR ISSUE BUT I CONDUCT MYSELF IN A HONEST MATTER "

My message in return:

Your message to the seller:
"Mr. Carney, Regardless of the photo, which is why I bought the item to begin with, the items were NOT packed correctly, which is why one of the coils is broken. Just wanted a replacement, not a refund. Again, no need to yell at me...and I resent your assertion that I did not do my research or ask for more photos...there wasn't any reason to. I did ask around about you afterward, and some have said that you've tried to sell parts for "twice what they were worth," their words, not mine. Sorry, but your feedback is not 'near perfect,' You've had 1 negative in the last month, and I believe 5-6 over the past year. The fact is, the item in question did not arrive in good condition."

I would probably leave him negative feedback based on the extortion of additional shipping fees alone. Keep in mind, only buyers can leave negative feedback, and the seller can't leave retalitory feedback anymore.
