Default Hi Amp Alternator

Up for sale is a 185 hi amp alternator built by JPI imports of Dallas. I bought this alternator from a fellow club member and he said its for a 98-05 GS400 or 430 but he was wrong.I have a 99 GS400 and it does not fit.To make a long story short, he wont give me my money back so I am here to try to sell it.He said he bought it from JPI Imports for $475.00.I did research and this alternator is for a 98-05 GS 300 or 01-05 IS300 which was confirmed my an alternator shop.I did take it and have it bench tested and it puts out 159 amps on the bench which means according to the alternator shop that would be at low rpms but could put out as much as 10-20 amps or more at higher rpms once installed in your car.
Again this is for a 98-05 GS300 or 01-05 IS300
Newly built, never mounted.

$200.00 OR PLEASE MAKE ME AN OFFFER. FREE SHIPPING.

Local So Cal pick up is ok.

Can someone vouch for you? Also can you have this tested to measure actual output?

I have bought a few things on here but nothing recent. I will stand behind anything and everything I sell, not like Tristan. If this does not fit your car or doesnt put out the amps I said it did, I will give you 100% complete refund including paying the shipping charges to send it back to me. I have perfect ebay feedback for 11 years under bowlingbob.
I will try to find a place to bench test it to get the true amps it puts out.
Please email me with any questions you might have. Thanks

A simple search for JPI imports yielded results for those not privy to the PM you received.

Pretty crappy thing to do, IMO, to sell something like that for pretty big coin and not back it when found to be erroneous.

GLWS, and good for you for not trying to BS anyone.

Thanks Big Mack.
The funny thing is, the guy was trying to blame me for not checking if it would fit my car but he had no pics for me to see what it looked like, but promised me it would fit my car, then saying he was under no contract with me even though he commited fraud false advertising what he was selling .
Whatever I sell to anybody I stand behind it 100%
The nerve of some people.
