Default Dont buy from this ebay seller! Maxspeed-motorsports

I bought lightbulbs from this guy on ebay...and to my surprise, the light bulbs didn't fit! They are the correct light bulbs, but since they are made cheaply (the part where you insert into the socket is about twice as thick as stock bulbs) they did not even fit inside! It actually cracked one of my stock housings (rear turn signal) when I tried to put it in. I contacted him about it, and he kept giving me run arounds, so I filed a claim with Paypal. The guy got really pissed off and said "So you chose to do it the hard way , so lets work on this the hard way." Hopefully, I'll get my money back, but watchout for this guy. Thanks.

This is the package I ordered right here:

I have come to learn through my years that we are all mentally defective in some way, each to a different degree. The Seller you mention is a few degrees off from "main stream".

There are people offering PIAA bulbs at good prices on ebay, I stay away from the Knock Off Brands, tere always seems to be something wrong with them.... Hope you get your money back!

The guy messaged me again, this looong email, saying that if I had waited then... He also said that I'm the FIRST customer who's ever complained...BS! It's funny to me how he would still sell those things when more than 1 person complained about the fitment of the bulbs. That's just plain stupid. Well, still waiting for the claim...
