Is there a 914world seller feedback section on the site? If not, there should be. I did a search and did not find anything. If anyone knows a link then please post it.

I've had some great experiences and some not so great. I believe by offering feedback it will do a couple of things. First, it will give potential buyers some confidence in the sellers and should stimulate more selling activity on the site. Secondly, it will encourage sellers to be more honest about the items they are selling and should weed out some of the scammers and less scrupulous types out there.

Anyone else agree?

In any community there's a core group of folks that are really making the community work. Weather that's offering good parts, good information, good humor or just allot of pictures of hot women and cool cars, the people who contribute are usually the ones you can better trust. Hang out here long enough and you can see who's who and establish a better level of comfort with the people you're buying from or selling to.

Like when Bdstone has a part for sale I jump on it because his stuff is always awesome. Or buying brakes from PMB. That's about the best thing you can do for your 914. I'm now in the habit of PMing one particular seller whenever I need a part. I know he has allot of cars to brake so he usually hooks me up. I once sold two sets of Fuchs to the same guy. It worked for us. He knew I had a line on some cars and I knew he was good to do business with.

I bought an engine from someone here and it blew up 200 miles later. Not his fault because I knew what I was getting into and I knew the seller had no idea about the engine. Be a smart consumer. Get pictures. Talk, communicate and set your expectations accordingly. That's the way used parts trading works.
