    Damn the trolls and scammers!!

    So I posted a WTB on here for a 3.25 Torsen diff (still looking!) and some brand new member contacts me. He has one in great shape and will sell it for $250.00 shipped. His PayPal is dormant, so he needs me to pay via Moneygram. Anyway, watch out guys. Just thought I'd send a friendly warning.

    Good advice here, Always check feedback threads and paypal as merch so you can get a refund.

      There should be some sort of sticky list for scammers.

          FYI torsens didn't come stock in 3.25 ratio. 3.07, 3.15, 3.46, 3.64, 4.10, and 4.27. Wanganstyle can custom build you a 3.25 torsen. I just got a quote from him to build me one, and he has already built one for Kronus.

            Thanks Man, I may do a 3.15. I'll PM you to find out more about the Wanganstyle stuff.

                      Thanks guys, I just wanted other people here to look for the "markers" of a scammer. We were all noobies once and had zero feedback. Just for grins, I asked the guy for pics. He told me he's having issues uploading them, but it's a nice unit. I told him to piss off and scam someone else.

                        And thanks Jason. I'm just going to go a different route.

                          So who is this guy? Or would you rather have him still stay on board and get someone else?
