Do not buy from Dans_carparts!!!!!!!
I bought a set of hubs from him off of E-bay. They were different than was pictured. They were poorly packed and damaged. He promised a replacement and I'm still waiting.

Ouch, that sucks.
Unfortunately, "Dans Carparts" is just another alias for out good friends from Vineland, NJ. I've looked at some of the parts he has listed, and could use them, but I would never buy SVX parts from Vineland. There have been too many cases of SVX owners being screwed over by them, not to mention all the cars they have scrapped If you read the "Buyer Beware" thread in the for sale forum you'll find most of it is about these guys from Vineland.

Dan, basically Dans_carparts auctions are everywhere on Ebay.....take a look at alot of the pictures....If there are parts taken on a wooden deck, that's him.....But check the seller's location and also check the grammar of his word spelling....
Yes do check out the buyer beware thread. |

I am sorry it happened to you, but there have been countless threads and posts about this guy and his scams. I am sorry you missed it.

I do remember avoiding Vineland. But this guys feedback was 100% positive and I noticed some members names as buyers.

Finally got a response from him. We agreed on a trade. He's sending me another part I need to compensate my lose. I hope I didn't jump to conclusions.

This should be common sense. If you make a deal with your boss outside of work, then the company doesn't have to deal with it when you get screwed over. Likewise, eBay/Paypal doesn't have to care if you made some deal outside of their services. And since it wasn't an "official" eBay deal, then it also makes sense to be unable to leave negative feedback.

Many sellers will not do credit card transactions and paypal is secure.

when in doubt insist a private ebay auction be made, ebay has a feature that allows you to make a user specific auction... its for a good peace of mind from both parties involved and you get another feedback point
