[s-cars] Ripped off by Peter/Pete at s-werks.com

[Ed Kellock]

Well it sounds like he's still out there so I hope he figures his shit out
and gets everyone sorted out.  I mean, if he'd show up in person at an
enthusiast event, then I would have a hard time believing he's a straight up
crook.  I will attempt further contact with him but I have no real choice
but to file a claim with Paypal in the next few days to get into the 45 day
window.  I paid with Paypal Buyers Credit so I wonder if my chances of
getting a refund are any better.  How did everyone else pay?
