Last I checked, parts sold by private parties are sold AS IS. we don't sign waivers, or offer warranties. Dan, going as far as he did only raises his crudentials in my book as a seller. He went above and beyond when it comes to this topic, and was not in the wrong.

Next time, look something over before you buy. Do you not test drive a car before purchasing? Look at a house before moving in? Get to know a girl before marrying her and knocking her up (tom, you went a lil backwards on this!)?

Knowing anyone on this site means nothing. Facts are facts.

As stated above, I didn't pull the motor apart to "inspect" it because it was running in my own personal daily driver when I pulled it. I didn't find it in a junkyard and part with it for cheap because I wasn't sure of its quality. I gave Mark the chance to get his money back, because it IS possible that the motor was crankwalked when I sold it to him. There are plenty of 6 and 7 bolts that are running around with some degree of crankwalk. As to the crank and bearings being "junk", I found it to be suspect since the car made absolutely NO knocking noises or anything of the sort. Even then, I didn't dismiss the possibility of the motor being bad, and told him that IF it was inspected by a NEUTRAL party and found to be bad, then I would issue him a refund immediately. Please tell me where I could have done anything differently? I in no way mean this as disrespect to Scheides, Kracka, or anything other "higher ups" that might be friends with Mark on a personal level. But that has no bearing on this sale. Just cause you have a few beers with someone occasionally doesn't mean that they are incapable of making a mistake.
