[DeTomaso] Harness bar

[Will Kooiman]

I think you are being unreasonable.  These days, $50 barely buys a nice
dinner for 2.  Life is way too short to get upset about this.

I have a Hall roll bar.  It does not interfere with AC lines.  You have to
drill 3 holes in the rocker on each side, plus it bolts where the seat belts
mount by your shoulder on the firewall.  The 3rd leg mounts to the floor on
the passenger's side - 2 more holes.  I like it, but I don't use it on the
street.

The seller is not trying to beat me out of my payment. He wants to refund it
(or technically not accept it as it was sent paypal) It seems once he
learned he might recieve $100.00 from UPS for being negligent in his packing
of the harness bar, he would rather pocket the extra $40,00 then stick to
our agreement to provide me a harness bar for the payment agreed to. I paid
him an extra $10.00 to cover the pay pal fees on a $51.00 charge ( around
$7.00 more then Pay pal would charge. )I even offered to pay the additional
expense so that the ups settlement would be sufficent for him to come out
whole (plus $7.00) and I would stilll get a harness bar for around $20.00
dollars more then the price we agreed upon instead of me now having to pay
more then double then the price we agreed upon.His word is apparently not
worth the extra $40.00.
Or maybe I am being unreasonable?
