I can't stand scammers. $100 says this person asks for money as a deposit or to deliver and you never see the money or the axles again. We need a couple local guys to "meet" this person and give him a knuckle sandwich.
He's not going to meet anyone anywhere. He's a scammer. Everything he posts is fake. Including his location. No real way to know where he is.

I'm guessing the JeeppartsCambodia hashtag might be a clue.

He deleted all my comments including the last one. His AI placement of his worn and dirty “jeep spare parts” tag on the pics is pretty lame as well.

Its bogus how Facebook allows these things to continue. Ive reported in the past but they do nothing. They really need an option to input the issue and have a real person review it.

There are so many scammers on facebook selling automotive parts.

Sometimes, a sidekick as well. They would say xxx has big inventory and i purchased good stuff from there. And then if you contact xxx, they are scammer using online photos to tell you whatever you ask is in stock. I was suspicious when I kept low balling and they kept saying ok. A $1000 brand new item was negotiated to $100. lol

I left Facebook about 6 years ago.

Mainly because of derision from elections and a global pandemic, but also because it became more ads than posts from friends and family.

You want Facebook to change? Leave.

Look at Call Of Duty, never did anything about cheaters until everyone was cheating and the player base left, suddenly taking care of cheating is their number 1 priority.

I have an account with no posts. The three Jeep clubs we wheel with use it to notify us of runs and charity events.

I've given up on FB marketplace for the most part. Too many scammers and their searches never show me anything I'm actually looking for.

Its really bad, but I still find stuff from time to time. Its definitely incredibly tedious to wade through all the retail listings, obvious scams, and COMPLETELY unrelated items to try and find things that match what youre trying to find. I was able to find my rubi fenders the other day off marketplace and was stoked about that. I remember when marketplace used to be really good more like a Craigslist with easier communication.

I have kept it just for marketplace, but it seems to get worse daily. The biggest issue is there isn't a good substitute, at least not in my area.

Yet another reason to change areas...
