Sorry to hear about your trouble, Custom. I hope you get it straightened out. I guess it's a good thing it wasn't a couple hundred bucks you were spending but it still sucks no matter what the cost was.
Thanks for informing us. I have only made a few internet purchases and one one of them charged my account but never delivered. Paypal was involved and the seller refunded. It was a complete PITA though.
Makes me think buying from a local retaoler is a good way to go unless their prices are outrageous.

Yep through private parties paypal is as useful as a limp dick. Use a credit card or buy local if I can't use a credit card I don't buy. Too many other ways to get what you need and save a buck without risking your money.

I never buy 2nd hand stuff from people. I never like hand-me-downs since I was little.
I want my own brand new shit, so I purchase from a webstore or a store around town.

Isn't Paypal still a credit card purchase? (card on file?) try to dispute it through your credit card?

LOL
I'd feel that way too, but over what....$25 ?? So not worth the court/jail time. Now if he lived near you...call him every name in the book and if he threatens harm in any way then kick his ass so you have an alibi.

Yes they are the right ones. Brand new in the package just like he said. I was hoping you would get on here and say he made it right that he sent you the wrong one by mistake. But looks like thats not the case. I mean that's the least he could do.

According to Sprocket Specialists the 84-86 ZX-900 Ninja is the same splines and chain size as the 14.

Ok, let me rephrase it:
The sprocket from the 84-86 ZX-900 fits the ZX-14.
Did they say what year ZX-900 the sprocket fit? Another member here had a dealer tell him that a sprocket wouldn't fit, and it turned out to be the proper sprocket. I'm not saying that is the case here, but based on the info that you provided it sounds possible.
