Though I've tried hard to "get along" with Trent, I have no more
expectations of it; 'didn't realize I had suggested such. ;<)

All getting along is a difficult thing. Why should Rusty get along with
someone who will not return 17K of his money? Why should we get along with
a Trent who has stolen from us?
Personally, I have no gripe with Gary as he has never wronged me. He may
be a bit wacky, but when it comes to selling car parts he appears to be
principled. He also seems to be quite knowledgable with respect to older
cars. He also claims to not sell China crap. I respect that.

we've been crapped upon by Rusty's replacement, and Rusty is not to be
blamed for that. I also know that most of us have old cars (the newer
ones, too) that occasionally need parts supplied in an honest, timely and
dependable manner.
Can't we all just "get along," enjoy each other's camaraderie and
continue to learn and gain from our very diverse experiences without any
bickering and the tendency to "cut" one another occasionally? Having
grown up in a very large family, though, and having been married for 56
years (+ 4 years "together" before that), I know how things can get a bit
"testy" occasionally, but we still love each other and would not really
hurt each other.

Well you make some interesting points, but we are talking about car
parts not the guy marrying your daughter, so I am sort of of the mind
that if he can deliver the car parts I need with minimal drama and good
service, then his past or current trash talk and whatever is mostly
irrelevant. He might be whack, but if he delivers stuff I pay for, and
provides some value-add to the selection thereof, he is miles
(kilometers) better than a thief.
But then again I don't have any strong opinions about whatever happened
in the past, whoever's version of it, but to each his own... I do
understand some might be offended or angry or not in tune with the
noise.
I have corresponded with our local Sheriff dept guys, they are of the
opinion that the Sterling IL po-pos should be dealing with the guy since
that is where the problem resides, but since they won't one of them said
he would give them a call and try to light a fire under them. It was
also a point of discussion that wire fraud (taking your money over the
phone/net, not refunding, etc.) is a federal interstate crime but the
feds probably don't care, they have bigger fish to fry.

Dunno, the way he was talking over at MBworld put me off, stuff like "I
am the best parts vendor, blah blah blah"
There is being confident in your abilities and aiming to be the best
but as far as declarations of being best, that is done by others.
Plus he was not shy in sinking the slipper into Trent, without knowing
anything about what is going on.
Not a lawyer but Trent could have grounds to sue for slander.
Basically I think Jabba is trying to behave but I can still sense a
bitter and angry man lurking somewhere in the great mass.
Far as I am concerned he showed his level of commitment to us by
basically taking a big dump on his potential customers here. Was there
ever an apology offered?
Guess he is that good he can afford to crap an a few customers.
However end of the day it's up to Kaleb as it doesn't affect me, I have
my little parts dealers over here and as always shipping kills the
deal.
Speaking of which, don't you people have bricks and mortar Euro parts
stores over there? I have two here, which technically are trade only
but I have a business number to show, which is all they care about.

who has included Gary Hursts post on MBworld below, FYI
you may not be so fortunate. i'm thinking this is buymbparts.biz is a
ponzi scheme. basically, a few orders are shipped to "prove" that it is
a legit business so more money can be brought in. after 3 months, there
is maybe 100,000 dollars in outstanding orders, but that money will not
be in the bank as the flood of chargebacks is expected by the schemers.
so maybe there is 5.000 in the bank for the bank to collect from and
everyone else will be left with a loss.
in other words, your bank may not pay you if they cannot recover the
money from the account it was deposited into when you purchased from
buymbparts.biz. there may not be any money left, so my advice is try to
get what you can ASAP
i founded buymbparts 15 years ago and have watched it get more and more
viciously crooked till it has reached the point where it is at now.
even though i've had nothing to do with this company for many years
now, these are sad days for me. i feel sort of like a parent whose
child has run away from home and now i see him on the nightly news
evolved into a hardened criminal
i know for a fact that there are honest, conscientious and competent
parts vendors out there as i am one myself. i personally believe i'm
the best one out there and many agree with me, but maybe you do not and
ought to buy from someone else. but why would you ever buy from an
outfit such as buymbparts.biz? is trent part of the mercedes community
? does he have any track record at all inmercedesparts

can you find any public record at all about him other than he gets
arrested for drunk driving? why does he look so much better than some
email from nigeria?
it boggles the mind how easily he/they has been able to pull this con
off. hopefully your bank will pay you off even if the money is not
there anymore.
