I see that Kessler's is selling a lot of stuff lately on eBay. The feedback seems to be good. I'd like to bid on some of the stuff, but am concerned about getting them.

Is the same guy or the grand parents selling the parts? Anybody know?


My Chevy is over 70 years old and still running great. I hope I keep running cuz I just turned 81 !!

Actually, Kessler's feedback is not good! He has 18 negatives so far, with 11 of those in the past six months. Kessler's is now run by Mike Hahn (as you posted back in July of 2002) and he is the grandson of Lawrence Kessler. Since Mike has taken over, "Kessler's" reputation is in the flush You can get just about every repro part that he sells from other suppliers, so no need in taking a chance on losing your money with Kessler's. My suggestion is to stay away from Kessler's and not bid on his stuff that is on eBay. :( :( laugh laugh laugh

I also bought something from Kesslers in Aug. , asked to have it sent COD since I'd heard he was tough to get products sent out. Never seen the material and I never paid him. I never gave him a negative, but I sure could have. I'll bet there are more than what's listed that has been stiffed by him.

I agree with the dog, Hahn is re-selling stuff he has purchased from other vendors. Check the catalog of some of the 'good' vendors and I think you will find all of the items you need. Agrin yipp

Having a bad experience with him will keep you upset for a long time, and maybe out of time and $$ -- it's not worth the risk!! :(

I'm not sure if the auction Old Crank is refering to is being placed under the seller name, "Kesslers", but if so, this guy is also selling under the seller name "Olney" and has 10 neutrals and 18 negatives out of 274 responses - not too good! I would never do business with anyone with that poor of a track record. chevy -Bob
