I've been dealing with Tony for almost ONE YEAR and am still awaiting completion of a transaction.

It turns out I ordered the BIG BRAKE KIT from him...$4300.00. After waiting over 6 months, and countless emails and phone calls, he deleted his number from ebay so I was unable to get in touch with him.

I was grateful to get the number from a FORUM member and after a couple of months I received the product. Problem is, when he sent it, the box had no inventory list and was incomplete. I am still awaiting a BRAKE CARRIER BRACKET which I can only assume is the part I'm missing.

Now mind you, this is only a $285 OEM priced part. Nonetheless, last response from him, was that he was going through financial problems! He still had the audacity to tell me that his intent was to send the missing part.

ANY IDEA WHERE I CAN ORDER THIS FROM?

In closing, I must say THIS GUY IS A COMPLETE FRAUD, and gives EBAY and any other web-related sales a BAD NAME. CON ARTIST, SCAMMER and THIEF are the only descriptors I can afford this guy. He charms you, then sticks you. I've heard every excuse other than my dog died. First it was his wreck, then it was his girlfriend left him, now its a financial problem.

JEEZ...not sure whether a bank will help me in this regard as much time has passed but I'll keep trying.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS CLOWN!!!!!!!

His name is Tony, Quad_M.

In actuality, his real name is Zafer Tamer. A real asshole. :thumbsdown:

Hey guys...

Thanks for reading my post. You know, sometimes it just helps the healing process to get the word out. Sometimes that adage "MISERY LOVES COMPANY" isn't appropriate as I truly feel for the rest of the folks who have been burned by this wretched human being.

I believe in KARMA and I just know the Universe (if not the law), will make things right!

Cool to be here and hope to hear from you guys soon. Pics of my children (525 and X5) comin soon.

Peace

Sorry to learn about your bad experience with quad_m. If you still need the missing part, then call Garry from BMW Newport. You can find his info in the Classified section. He gives discount to all E60 members. Good luck!

How did you pay him? through Paypal? If so, you should've asked for a refund.
