Bought items through classifieds from Randy Webb, didn't get them. but he has my money Options

[olav]

I bought some items for my car off of Randy Webb of webmotorsports.com.

He sent me some of the stuff but hasn't sent everything. Still
missing a drivers seat.

I have phoned him several times to get the items and he always says his email has dumped and lost my contact info.

I talked to him last month where he assured me that he would
send it and he was glad I called because, once again, he lost my contact info.

This seems strange since he runs an online business webbmortorsports.com

I was wondering what recorse I have to get my seat or my
money back.

He lives in Denver and I'm in San Jose, CA.

I guess I'm out of luck with this guy.

Oh, this has been going on for over a year!

Any suggestions appreciated.

Olav,

Been swamped. I still have to make the trip to UPS to find out the shipping
for you. I'll send everything but the driver seat until I sell a few things
from FL - then I'll send that too. Thanks for the patience.

Randy

Yet another follow up with wiring harness and seat mentioned.

Address is 3962 E. Garnet Ct. Highlands Ranch, CO 80126

Check is fine. If I come across a bumper, I'll give you a call. If you have
the list of parts you wanted handy, it would help out. I have them, 'cause I
looked over it to price everything, I just don't have it in front of me.
I'll send off the seat and wiring harness stuff the next time I get down to
FL.

Thank God you e-mailed! I've been waiting to hear from you. My computer
dumped everything!!!!! I need to get your address, and I think I know all of
the stuff you want - the e-brake, the backpad, the footrest, what other
things are there? I am VERY sorry for this. I got your check, and I'll send
it out first thing tomorrow!

Olav,

How are you? I think the last time we spoke I mentioned that I would
probably be back in Florida for the holidays, and that I would send it
then.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Could you also resend the address that you want me to send the items to?
It has been a while, and I want to make sure nothing has changed.

Thanks,
Randy

Randy,

Here is the text of one of your messages.

I was wondering when you will be sending the seat and seals?


Thanks,

Olav

I subsequently phoned January 13th at 8:20 according to my phone records to ask if I was ever going to get my seat, wiring harness and seals.

He said his email dumped once again and lost my contact info.

He said the items were all packed up and ready to go from his grandparents place because he was in Florida
during Christmas. He didn't have my contact info at the time so could not send it.

He was once again relieved that I called so I could give him my address to finally send the stuff out even though
he knew I was on the 914world.com board. (interesting)

I gave him my address and thought I would get the items now.

Now, I am at the mercy of his grandfather sending the items out to me.

As you can see this has been going on for over a year and a bit.

I think the emails speak for themselves and are rather impartial.


I think I'll just get some of my money back.

How much should I get back for a drivers seat, wiring harness and "some seals"

thanks again.
