There has literally never been anything bad to be said about Andy South
Thank you sir, wish my wife would say that. Back at you.
I bought a fuel pump and filter bracket from fukoa. I received it before my paypal cleared, I was very surprised. It was in like new condition with all hardware and packed very well. It was well worth the price and would buy from him again.
I have had more then one good experience with
South26 - Andy
Great seller all parts arrived on time.
all parts present. Looking forward to doing business again.
Only thing he forgot to send me was tracking numbers. But hey I imagine the dudes a busy guy. And he made it happen so what more can ya ask for! Again great seller 4/5 stars.
Had a great experience with Brendan P. He inquired about a set of Hartges, agreed upon a price and pick-up date/time, and was communicative throughout. Seamless transaction. Highly recommended!
Thumbs up for a good seller. Good clear communications, well packaged robust poster tube that fully protected my poster from Canada Post's finest, while in transit.
Thank you Doug it has been a pleasure doing business with you.
Recently purchased an e34 yellow foglight from Dogabon. Felipe went above and beyond to help me by finding one in Europe and shipping it to me. He's a great seller and i wouldn't hesitate to purchase from him again. Thanks for a great transaction.
Dave(kojo96) is a stand up guy. Was looking for a car cover for the e28 said he had one for and e23 but was too short that he was willing to part with but wasn’t sure if it would fit an e28. He was kind enough to let me take it and try it before any money was exchanged. Low and behold the cover fits like a glove.
A BIG Up to Wallothnesch!! Great pricing, easy inexpensive, fast shipping. And they sent me a big parts calalog of all parts for my e12. Big blue binder, super cool and useful to boot. Im getting my cart ready for another buy here real soon. thumbs up to Yosemite Sam, Mike W., Ron D. firstfives crew.
Time for a long overdue acknowledgment. I know that others have recommended South26 as a seller, but I should definitely show my appreciation as well. I have bought many parts over the last 2 years from Andy, and he has always come through. He has gone out of his way to help when things were on the time sensitive side, he is fair with prices on pieces, quick with shipping, and ships with solid packaging. Thanks to Andy for helping me keep my car in order.
I bought a trunk lid from Hector (fastcrs). I met him at his house in Stockton, CA - GREAT guy. His description and pictures he sent me before I drove up there were accurate - no exaggeration. This is the second time I bought parts from him. I'd definitely do so again (...and again).
I bought a set of Eibach springs from KrautnotRice, for an excellent price.
He gave me a shipping estimate, which I gladly paid.
When shipping was less than expected, since they fit in a flat rate box, he was kind enough to MAIL ME the difference!
That is what I call a stand-up guy and excellent service.
I will not hesitate to do business with him again.
Cheers

I had the same type of experience. Bought a lower dash/kick panel from him and he refunded me the $8.00 he was over in his shipping estimate. Hated to see that he was parting out but glad to do biz with him
Bought a set of door cards and glove box. Packaged very well. Price was cheap. Sent me tracking info and followed up with me to make sure i recieved it ok.
Johnmatukas joined today and has sent me the same message 4 times for 2 different posts and hasn't responded. Both posts he was referencing have been WTB's that I have already closed out. Probably a bad idea to deal with them.

Thanks for posting this. He contacted me too 3x & hasn't responded to me. Spam suspect.
Has anyone had any dealings with "Uberdeus"? I responded to his recent add for leather sport seat covers for front e28 sport seats. I sent $800 payment via paypal and have received nothing but radio silence after sending him my mailing information. I'd like to think this is just a delay and I haven't been scammed. It's just very odd that the there's no response as soon as money was sent. The dude's name is Justin and his email is justinneigel@gmail.com. I've had credible dealings with everyone selling on this forum except this time. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm new to feedback in the forum.
I had posted a WTB... guy responded quickly in PM only, not to thread. I shared phone number with him. I was trying to buy a valve cover for S38B35. He said he had one, sent me an image of one. I'm busy, and since it took him a week or so to respond to my PM back to him... didn't think there was a "RUSH" to complete transaction. He wanted Money-Gram for payment. He also offered I send him an ITune card when I wasn't thrilled with the app's ratings for phone use. Guy called with "No ID" on his phone number, and wouldn't let up with phone calls. I think I got 7 in a row this AM at work. DEF not sending this guy money, especially now that his account is gone.

Similar experience. Bought his SAAB moonroof and it was packed impeccably. Clearly he takes care of his stuff and would purchase from him again.
I'm obligated to get up to speed and give a big thumbs-up to a couple of reputable guys from whom I've purchased major parts:
Alpinass (Paul) - A few years ago I bought a 3.64 LSD from him. He said it was originally from an E34 and had been resealed. Since then I've driven my car almost 10K miles, and it's performed flawlessly. It was reasonably priced, too.
vviking (Sherman) - While gathering parts for my E24's 5-speed conversion, I bought a 265/6 tranny from him and it turned out to be a bad one (extremely noisy 1st gear, probably bearings on their way out). Neither of us knew it was bad until my conversion was completed over a year later, yet he stood behind it and found a good replacement for me which has worked out fine. I also bought a resurfaced M5/533 flywheel from him. He's a great guy to do business with.
Just purchased from Alpinass a recovered e28 dashboard in German vinyl. Arrived in packaging that kept it safe and secure. It's a wonderful bit of workmanship, very high quality. And Paul is very easy and responsive to deal with.

Please don't hesitate to work with Paul.
Another endorsement for Paul. Rear seat in better condition than description. Thank you Paul!
There is a person going by the name of Pavel Jordi Overmars from Surbiton in the UK advertising the engine from a M6 chassis #WBAEE1415J2561765 for sale. It was on a Craig's list add in London. I contacted him and I made arrangements for it to be delivered to a shipper to crate it and ship it to me in the US. I put a deposit on the engine and he immediately stopped all communication.
I transferred the funds to his bank account and I have contacted the bank to inform them about this, I don't expect I will ever hear from him again and I'll chalk this up to a learning experience but I am going to be as public with this as I can and hope to keep someone else from falling for this scam.
Overdrive sold me a neat vintage 1980's refurbished leather Hella sport steering wheel, shipped from Latvia to the US. The steering wheel is in perfect condition and he sent it promptly. I would not hesitate to buy from him again.
Chris Scow of Leatherwheels.com recovered a 320i sport steering wheel. It is incredible. I would use him again. fast turnaround. takes pride in his work and reasonable. i wish i could post pics. im not that saavy.
@jhh925 (Jens) - AAA+++ TOP SELLER. WILL BUY FROM AGAIN.
Told me he had an near perfect late-model carpet set. I believed him. He packed it well and shipped it promptly. It is as described (maybe better). Good guy and good seller.
I had an origianl shift knob but the leather was shot, and so I sent it to him for repair. What I didn't know was that the innards were shot too - the plastic tabs that snap the knob to the gear shifter shaft had shattered. So plan B was to find a cheap replacement knob and use the innards on the original - but of course modern knobs are one-piece manufactured. I did find a replica knob (eBay!), but it wasn't leather, so I sent that to Chris to leather. I also sent him the original shift boot to sew to the leather knob, just like OEM.
Chris is excellent to work with - he was very heplful in creating a solution. And his leather work us first-rate.
Received some lowering springs from user Igglybob, easy transaction, full disclosure and didn't try to hide anything. arrived exactly as advertised. Would buy again.
Very fast in communication and provided good photos of parts. Notified me when it was in the mail as well as when to expect it. Arrived as described and well packaged. Perfect transaction! Thanks
Not technically a buyer/seller transaction but a shout out to jimoreno who was very helpful with some technical questions I had related to the e38, even went so far as to send me a spare ignition switch for me to swap onto the car to assist with the troubleshooting. Thank you Jimmy!
Had a pleasant and unexpected run-in with a fellow mye28-er during a recent purchase. When I saw the neighborhood littered with e34s an e23 and an e28, I figured something was up. Thanks, kojo96. Would buy again.
Another great experience with Andy. Can't say enough great things about this seller. He has sold me (and the rest of us) many parts and I'm always impressed with his fair prices, packing and how fast he sends things. This time he sold me a B35 intake and packed it incredibly well to prevent damage.
Very friendly and will likely do business with again!
