Buying a ssqa plate

[TMGT]

Not sure how they are even shipping an oversized 85 pound item for that selling price....let alone paying ebay/paypal feels and then make money?

Dont know but I ordered 2 just to see, make sure you order through paypal, makes getting a refund from a scam a lot faster.

That's what I'm saying too. Ebay fee is like 10%. Paypal, another 3% for domestic sales.

Not that I'm suggesting that you're going to have a problem, but I test fit every plate against my SSQA before I start welding. I've seen a couple of plates that were out of spec. over the years.

Good tip.

It happened to me with the plate my snow plow is mounted on, and fortunately I did try it on first. No point in giving the manufacturer a chance to accuse you of warping the plate during fab. Mine was a Titan and they stood behind it. They did swap and pay return shipping on the first plate.

So those of you who bought this titan plate off ebay, anybody actually receive theirs or do any communicating with this guy?

Just a heads up, it's most likely a scam, look at his latest reviews. I contacted ebay, they opened a case on him, said if there's no response from him by the 15th, they're gonna shut him down and refund my money. For those who bought one, if it's past the estimated delivery date you received by email, you might wanna contact ebay as well.

Did you just contact ebay directly or use the "did not receive item" option?

First I sent him a message, hey dude are you legit or a scammer coz your latest reviews don't look good. No response from him, so I contacted ebay directly, talked to them on the phone. They said that they have no record showing it shipped (I got an email earlier that it did ship with an estimated 05/07/20 delivery date). Sounds like they're already viewing him as a scam artist. As they say, if it's too good to be true... It's fine though, ebay will just refund the money.
