I agree he totally misrepresented the product...i mean, he says things like genuine repeatedly and never replica or JDM style or whatnot, can't you report his dealings to ebay? But for that price you had to know they probably weren't the real JDM DC5 headlights. I mean they go for the high 500's easy.

 

yes I agree but I had put in a bid of 450 its just that it was a one day sale and I could watch it all day. So maybe everyone didn't get it see it.

 

I would be pissed! send them back then dispute the charge with your credit card company

 

trust me I am pissed. But how do I go about disputing the charge through the credit card company? It has already been a couple of days
peeps thanks for all your help!

Ship the headlights back, after he accecpts them call your credit card company tell them he sent you fakes and you sent them back and he will not refund you...they will take care of it

 

done! thanks

 

Man that sucks. And I agree with what the others have said. Keep us updated.

 

i bet he did that on purpose so he can have 15% restocking fee, what a cheap ass like some bagger on the street

 

Yeah I bought from the same dealer. Personally, I'm happy with the look. I think they look good. But you guys are right, that does constitute as false advertising.

 

report it to ebay.. even if u settle the dispute with the credit card, u can get a negative feedback from him.. if u report it to ebay, u won't get the negative feedback..

 

damn that really sucks i would be pissed if i paid 400 for replica depos

 

There's a process with eBay whereby you can dispute the sale. And as I recall, misadvertising the product is one of the qualifying events to get eBay involved. I can't recall actually what they do, but I think they might suspend him from eBay, try to go after him using the information they have collected, or something similar. But I know they do something. If you paid through Paypal, you also have recourse through them -- similar actions and complaint avenues. But like everyone said, if you paid with your credit card, call your bank and tell them the seller committed fraud and dispute the charge. If they're a good institution, they'll get their fraud department involved and investigate, especially given the high dollar figure. BUT, be prepared for a total lack of sympathy from them, since more and more of these unsecure transactions are taking place and more and more people are getting screwed.

 

Glad it worked out, I was gonna post an owned pic at first, ahh why not

Tell him fine then make sure he accecps the delivery and then call your credit card company and dispute the charge you will not have to pay anything....you got ripped off $400 for fake jdm headlights :firemad:

 

Yeh, I mean...this guy is ridiculous. Either he's a damn fool and honestly thinks they're real JDMs or he's scamming you (which seems likely, given the fees he's asking you to pay to return them). Like I said, I'd report him to eBay and call your credit card company. But DO ship 'em back and at least see if he'll refund some of your money. Don't want to piss him off too much, b/c he might just then not give any of it back.

 

Hey you can keep the headlights...and file a complaint with EBay. And i think ebay will reimburse you upto 200 or 500. minus a 25$ fee. Read up on it in Ebay. Buyer Protection plan or something. Good luck!

 

it's hard to find genuine jdm headlamps on ebay these days, if they don't say honda on them, they're fake. also on the honda ones, somewhere on the back they have markings that specify the bulbs. it says "us h1" "jp d2s" or something like that, and lists them both.

 

I had a similar problem before on ebay. for inauthentic merchandise, all you need to do is provide some kind of outside verification for your product--take it to your local speed shop, have them write a letter saying that it's a replica (this must be done on official store stationary), then follow the steps provided in the 'merchandise dispute' section. that's it. You'll get your money back in no time. GL.

 

what r u gonna do if he said he didnt get it after u sent it back??
I would just keep them and find some way to get half of money back ($200)
it's very delicate situation for u man. sorry.

 

the JDM ones say honda in the corners by where the grill is.

dont the stock lights have that too? or i must have been seeing things.

 

thats some bs. i think you should walk to his house and smack the sh*t outta his face
