Yes, I lost $225 to a punk in the Chicago area, but he got caught up in another illegal deal and is out of action for a while. When he gets out he may have another surprise. That deal was supposed top be a meet half way deal till last minute. I knew better. I have bought, rebuilt and resold over 70 carburetors on Racing Junk and Craigs List in the last couple years. Only got stung once so far.
