Does anyone remember who runs (or ran) Hyperion Parts in South Carolina or how to reach him?

@danielsreal8,

It's considered generally bad netiquette to revive posts from the long dead. This one was last active over 8 years ago, and given the nature of what was shared, I don't think anyone's really seeking out this individual anymore.

Now it appears that he's popped up on the internet in another guise: The Luxury Junkyard and located at:

The Luxury Junkyard
2541 N Pleasantburg Dr, Suite S - PMB 118
Greenville, SC 29609

Phone: (864) 356-3343

Interestingly, the direct link to his eBay store under the username theluxuryjunkyardcom (on his FAQ page) shows that this username no longer exists.

In mid-2011, I order a quantity of Bentley Mk6 gearboxes from Rogers. I paid via Paypal, as I though this will protect me, and how wrong I was!

He wasted so much time in actually posting the gearboxes, that by the time they landed in the UK and I inspected the virtual scrap that he sent, the time limit for filing a dispute with Paypal had expired. Gearboxes that he promised me were in very good condition were seized solid, has the had been sitting outide in all weathers for maybe years. Every single gearbox had numerous teeth broken. I will be lucky to make one gearbox out of three.

Parts equally described as nearly pristine had so much rust, you wouldn't believe it. For example, the floor shift side gear lever was rusted through, and this has to be nearly 1 third of an inch of chromed steel. All in all, I lost maybe $6-8000US. I have loads of photos and witness statements of the goods he sent. I am going to on his back forever.

Do not trust this man. Do not spend a bent penny with him, because he will fleece you off that as well. I am in the process of getting his private home address, so members of the forum can post me for it in the near future!

David Rogers

Yes, he is operating out of Greenville SC. I would seek legal advice and take action. As stated, rogers is now using "englishlimousinesatgmail" on eBay. Go to eBay, due a search for Rolls parts; find listings by "englishlimousinesatgmail". He has listed a phone number (864-356-3343). I would start by calling him, if no response, get a lawyer.

Hyperion

Adam,

Leho is correct about rogers on ebay. He first used "rollsroycebentleyparts" (No Longer A Registered User) when he was working out of the factory in Iva, SC, then "6cells" / Bensalem, PA)NLARU), "labelooker123" / Norfolk, VA (NLARU), "ateawobbler" / Abingdon, VA (Not A Registered User), and I believe he is now active on eBay with "wellwobbly" / Abingdon, VA with an email of teawobbler@aol.com. If these eBay user names are his then the addresss used are incorrect, he lives and operates out of Greenville SC. Did you lose money to rogers? If so, I can help.

You really need to do a lot more digging! :) "Largest supplier of RR parts' - reallllly?
Scuttlebutt has it that David sold everything to a UK gentleman who locked everything up and hasn't been heard from since. Not everyone who had dealt with Hyperion before closure were entirely thrilled. The sagest advice followed was to inspect the part before paying any money.
David may be a bit active on ebay from the Bensalem, PA area.
