    I recently put a digital camera on trademe. I bought it from Parallel Imported as a demo model and it did not come with the box/cd/cradle/USB cable etc. I was however sold a charger/battery and a 256mb memory stick and a card reader with the camera. I did not keep the reciept as it was a demo it did not have a warranty.

    Over christmas i lost the charger for the camera so I bought a whole new camera and had no need for this one as i didnt have the charger.

    When it was on trademe I had a few people bidding on the camera and about 20 minutes before the auction closed a member called 'Hongkongkiwi,' outbid the leading bidder and won the auction. I sent him the payment intructions and did not hear anything for a few days. When i did get an e-mail back he wanted my phone number so that he could ring and ask some questions, okay i gave him a number and was contacted. He started asking a whole lot of q's about the camera, like: Why dont you have the box and all the other bits if you only lost the charger?

    I answered honestly and told him i bought it as a demo and it was fully legit. He begged to differ.

    I went on trademe that night and hello!!! He placed a comment on my feedback saying :

    You have been referred by me to THE POLICE ,!!!, I BELIEVE THIS CAMERA IS STOLEN. After speaking with the POLICE 'BREAK SQUAD' about the situation AND YOUR RESPONSES, they appeared very interested in you.I believe you lied to me and I believe you to be a VERY EXTREMELY DISHONEST TRADER !!!

    When i found this i decided to call him this morning. Upon ringing him and trying to explain in full the situation he had already made his mind up about it. He hung up on me and was very rude. He called me a 'f**king black c**t,' 'a black sh*t theif,' and a few other obscenities but im sure you all get the picture.

    I have a converstaion recorded that is him telling me to 'f**k off'. I was nothing but nice to the guy and im sure the people that know me on here can verify that i am most certainly not a 'f**king black c**t!'

    I am very upset/pissed off about this. I have layed a complaint with trade me and will be speaking with a lawyer in regards to the police side of things. I can assure everyone that the camera is NOT stolen.

    He has also tarnished my mums trademe account, she did have 160ish 100% positive feedbacks and now has this brandished to her name.

    He also has an accomplice with the username 'shoe7,' he has been asking questions about the camera (i relisted it) and a g shock watch i have listed. He wanted to sort out a 'deal' on both. I looked in his feedback and see the he has on many occasions traded with 'Hongkongkiwi,' they seem rather friendly, and i think they think the watch is stolen to. I have reciepts and a box for this.

    I have blacklisted both of them on my account and havnt heard anything from the police yet.

    Any help or advice in this situation would be greatly appreciated.

    Some people should stop trying to play detective and lets the real cops do the work....

    Difference is the disc/drum t/a's

    The disc'd t/a's are offset for a 8 bolt diff and the drum brake ones are offset for a 6 bolt.

    Its wierd but when its all together on the ground in front of you it makes a big difference, now that i have the 8 bolt diff in its all good. No angle. Only now that it is in the car and there is camber.

    Pitstop FTL....

    Never had good experiences with them.

    Stopped going back after 2 or 3 incidents.

    As already said. Best to find a place that does the lot, aren't a rip off and will do what you want how YOU want it.

    Afterall business is all about the customer.....

    Yea, upon putting my trailing arm and subframe/diff back together and when using the small diff the halfshaft are on a mega angle and the dust caps for the oil seals on the diff are the medium case ones that came with the disc'd rear. I need to change to a medium case to rectify these problems
