Shipping is ******* gay. I sold my wing for like 175. Spent 30 bucks on packing materials and 54 for shipping. For what I made I would have rather kept it. Oh well

there's a yellow (low rise?) car that I've seen cross glemore at Odgden/Sheppard road - I think this one is owned by the (woman?) who works at the new home improvement store across from home depot on 130th;
I also saw a yellow car with a highrise parked at the base of the Pinnacle apartment buildings off of Southland and McLeod trail... there are a couple a round - but I believe I'm the only one with the RPD (but I am one of four in canada - so who knows)
Like I said before I haven't driven it since I got home from work on Friday - so about 5:30...
there's no reason why you should.
sometimes shipping from Canada takes double or triple the time as it does for USPS to ship to canada;
from my experience the tracking number is good till it hits the border, then only makes a note upon delivery.
even if he goes to Paypal, there's no guarantee that he's going to get his money - I tried to dispute an item a while ago that was flat out not shipped, and PP didn't do $hit-all ~ iirc I was out about $100...
you might want ot give this douche a heads up that the shipping is often slower than he'd expect, and although you understand his frustration your hands are tied because you shipped it - tell him to just be patient;
cite your feedback from this site as proof that you have sold to other members here, and are not looking to steal money on an item you're loosing money on.
PS in light of my having bought from you, I added an itrader point....

Yep. Like the PM I got today... "I'll give you $100 shipped for those [BRAND NEW] springs to North Carolina because I personally believe they depreciated as soon as you got them... take it or leave it." Does the retard not realize it'll cost at least $50 to ship them there?

That is of course assuming the car originally came equipped with the RPD - since it can be added to any 2009 model year Cobalt SS-coupe;
Most RPD cars were state-side cars, seeing as the option was avaialble from the onset of the 2009 model year, and only authorized about midway through the 2009 model year for canadian cars...

kasper_17 I assume that is your LNF at Shark Club this morning, otherwise I just took a picture of somebody random's car. 
Lots of compliments and gross over-estimations on the cost of the car. It's really nice, brand new so I'm not getting on it but the 156 hp is perfectly usable with the 6-speed. Unbelievably quiet at idle, I'm constantly looking to see if the car is running. No options on it at all; it's cool that black interior, cruise, AC, Bluetooth/iPod/aux-in, fogs, and mirror signals are all standard equipment. No big plans except for my usual LED things here and there, I'll switch the DRL's from the high beams to LED fogs. Winter tires will go on these stock 16" then I'll get 17" wheels in the spring.

I'd be fine with dropping it off somewhere for you.
I actually just switched over banks and don't have my PayPal setup though. Cash would be preferable.
Joel
P.S.
Anyone who needs HPTuners, I have it and it's sitting there. If you want to repay me for the credits you use anyone is more than welcome to borrow it.
