[DeTomaso] my opinion-- was Roland Jackel vs Coz

[pantdino at aol.com]

I'm not sure why Coz is unhappy. He agreed to sell a ZF for $4k, got his money, and sent it off. He still has his $4K PLUS the $400 windfall profit from the change in the Euro exchange rate at the time of the insurance payout (he only repaid Roland $3600 USD). 

Roland paid 3K Euros for a ZF, had the 3K Euros returned to him, but ended up paying 1K Euros in taxes and duties and such.  So he got a damaged ZF for 1K Euros. 

Roland, do you think the damaged box is not worth 1000 Euro?  If so, from what you wrote you can return the box (UPS will pay shipping I gather) and get your Euros back from the government.  Then you will have back all the money you paid.

Of course, things could get more complicated if UPS says they want to come by and pick up the ZF they now legally own. But my guess they won't bother to pick up something they would have to invest unknown manhours in to sell.  

Roland, I think if I were you I would call up UPS and tell them to come get what I would call their "worthless broken transmission to a car most people have never heard of."  If you're lucky they won't want it and for scrap value they'll give you a release making it legally yours.  If not, send it back and get your duty and taxes money back. UPS might send it to a metal recycling center and get scrap value, which would be a shame, but there may not be any alternatives.  

I don't understand the concept of the seller Coz is representing wanting his broken ZF back. He sold it. Whether Roland or ZF owns it, it's definitely not his anymore.

Just a clear statement in my broken english:

oz got 4000.00 Dollar from me for the box.
Coz got 4000.00 Dollar from the insurance.
That is 8000.00 Dollar at all.
I got 2993.00 Euro back from Coz, whitch is appr.3600 Dollar plus whatever his 
ank charged him for wiring.
So Coz has still 4000.00 Dollar plus whats left over from the insurance money.
I have a broken gearbox and i paid all in all appr.1000.00 Euro in duty and 
axes.
So i got appr.1900.00 Euro for the repair.
If you feel, that that is unfair, don't do busines with me.
Roland Jaeckel
