Looks like Foreign Finds Online is branching out into other forums.  Tom Urban is posting on several car forums trying claiming to be a new member and such, but just look into who he really is (yotatech.com, nissanforums.com, clubvr4.com, mazdaforum.com, forums.clubsi.com) just to name a few.  Anyways, be careful and take what they say with a grain of salt.  Some members of my forum over at 3SI to include myself have been ripped off by this company.  Please refer to the thread below for my own experiance.  And feel free to email me if you would like the machine shops and a second shops report on the poor condition of the engine that Foreign finds online sent me.  I'm a mechanic myself, but I got two seperate shops to document the condition of the engine in since Foreign Finds Online attempted what I consider fraud.  Not trying to sling mud, but just putting some facts out there for you guys so you can make an informed decision if you choose to purchase from this company.  Myself and the other guy had to go through arbitration with our CC companies in a drawn out process to get a refund.

Besides if you really look into who Tom Urban really is, you might just find he is a Foreign Finds Online flunkie, might even work there.  Care to chime in Tom.

Not bitching, just pointing out the facts.  If FFO was so concerned about customers then why is I had to go through months of arbritration, I had to spend time on a broken engine that again wrong type and poor condition.  I had to pay to have the block inspected by two seperate companies.  Anyways, I had a bad experiance, another member from my board had to go through the same drawn out process.  Some others that aren't from my board have contacted me in order to share information on FFO's business practices, the BBB for their area has given them an unsatisfactory rating, and hmmm, why aren't they selling on ebay again, I'll let you answer that one.  You are a troll, and a spammer, as you have popped up several car message boards, with the same message, and its your first post at all of them.  I'm a straight shooter Tom, calling it like I see it. 

Link to the local BBB and showing that FFO has an unsatisfactory rating.

This whole thread is against the SPAM rules and should be deleted.

Never been called a Nazi before, thats a first.  No, Tom I'm actually an NCO in the military.  I'm an honest guy.  After some people from my forum got what we consider screwed over by FFO, I did some searching around.  Found the ebay complaints against them, found the BBB report (so its one complaint, but the company has only been in business since Summer 2006) why would they just ignore the BBB even for one complaint, they were found at fault in two cases of arbitration that I know of.  You really defend them for someone that doesn't have some kind of interest.  Just connect the dots.  Also one of the numbers for FFO goes to a junk yard in PA.  Why are you going on several forums, and making your first post about FFO?  That is called trolling,

Well I happen to like cars. So I go on car forums. Who gives a **** what my first post is about. Or the second third of fourth for that matter. I'd count more but I don't have the time.

patryn8 -> RE: Foreign Finds (5/12/2007 3:51:35 PM)

Well that is for board members to decide Tom. I put my facts and opinion out there, as well as pointed them to where you are spamming.  All the crap with FFO is not just coincidence, BBB found them unsat, arbitration ruled against them, they aren't on ebay anymore, and well they aren't allowed to sell on 3SI.org either, for a company that has only been in business for a few months, I think they are off to a not so great start.  Anyone from here wish to contact me in the future I can show you the two reports on the engine, pictures of the engine, as well as other contacts who were screwed over by FFO should you run into trouble. 

Here is an ebay guide of another member having problems with FFO
