Absolutely was going on way before that.
The beginning was good. Offered rare reproduction parts.
Then the sales happened.
A few got some good deals.
Then, the bottom fell out. That was about 2 years ago.
Sad thing is, there's most likely people buying parts from that web site today.
Sad really. Bad thing for all those people out a ton of dough. Scammers like that are the lowest of low. Scammers period.
