it seems recently many people are struggling with getting parts or money from members on AW or people who are just selling/buying crap on the AW classifieds.

we really should look into adding a rating system, so buyer and sellers do not get screwed. i think this is well over-due...

thoughts?

Default at the very least make the seller include thier AW screen name. On one of the Supra forums that I...

participate on, a member must be an established member for a minimum amount of time and with a minimum number of posts. That policy works very well.

I completely agree that something like this needs to be done on AW. I was ripped off here a couple of months ago.

Default Good call. Sellers need some type of accountability. I was

very nervous buying off of it. I think the seller probably thought I was nuts with all the questions, asking his screen name, and emailing another email address of his I found... hmm maybe I was...

I always ask for their handle. If no handle, no deal.

Default TJ: I have your other 02 for you. I swapped out last night and everything seems fine. Wanted...

to test it today to make sure. But car is down due to tire issues...see post above. I'll try and send it to you tomorrow or Monday. Thanks for sending the other one out. Now to try and fix my misfire issue...of course that I wasn't having before swapping everything out! These cars have ghosts...another rant! What a crappy day, already. And the pest inspector on my condo will probably find termites too today!
