Avoid using DHL to ship items.............

This is a heads up and a warning to you guys and gals who ship and buy stuff.

AVOID DHL...........a few months ago I bought a complete 4-speed manual changeover from the flywheel to and including the driveshaft from a 240D pedals and all. Paid $372 with shipping to a Dan Holden who sells on Ebay ander oryx_world_hq. The seller has a good feedback of over 1387 and 99.6% positive.

Shipment was lost by DHL at their Ohio center......poof vanished....well after making me jump through a lot of hoops including getting a copy of the Waybill from the seller, the dragged this out 2 months...........and then only refund me the cost of the items......$199 not a dime of the shipping which was the balance of the $372. They refuse to refund me that even though they lost an entire pallet of parts. Of course now too much time has passed and the credit card company can't do anything...........Seller is not retuning emails for the last week and this is all I can do.

Moral of the story............AVOID DHL.

Avoid DHL
