Beware do Not send anyone by the name Scott Burns any money. I posted a ad for woodie parts i needed he claimed he had them all. His area code is 415 northern California but lives in Billings, MT. His father just died and had to get gid of the stuff. He even called me back 3 times making excuses for shipping delays. His number is 415-910-0907......... Hang up!
It cost me $400 because it I didn't.

His antics have been posted on other sights ..... "Yesterdays Tractors", "Vintage Flat Tracker", "Thesamba.com","HotHemiHeads.com"

Report him to the authorities. Did you use the mail? It may be mail fraud. Worth a try.

Hopefully you paid with a credit card. Not a Walmart money transfer or gift card. And if eBay not friends and family.

Using the Long Distance telephone to defraud is a Federal offense as well. I wouldn't doubt that internet fraud is a Federal offense as well.

"Caveat Emptor" and all that other legal jargon as well.
