ya please do i no know of at least 3 guys he suckered including my self and 1 other he might of

[rockrigcustoms]

Damn this is crazy. Everything seemed real cool and genuine when I read the wanted ad. I thought it was a great idea.(i try to help the local kids that Jang around the lhs and drool over the stuff). This is one messed up deal if he made this up and took us all as suckers! What a f*cking low life! Sorry I'm just extremely pissed I gave a good tuber chassis to a thief when a good kid at my lhs could b enjoying it!

[freakofnature]

well i guess im gona chalk it up as a big loss on my half.

Call me a sucker... but I still believe in the general good in people. I am gonna reserver judgement until we hear back with what is going on from him. Keep in mind, not everyone spends every last minute on the forums like I do.

he hasnt been on since the 13th and he hasnt responded to any of my pm's since monday

[Atchley]

What a piece of shit. If dude really did pull this stunt he needs a reality check.

[Cordwood]

This dude is shady for sure. I almost said something when he started this thread but I figured I would of just looked like a big ol scrooge. He's been on here for a couple months selling purses, gps's, and even a thunderbird. He's looking for axial chubs, then he's selling some axial chubs because he doesnt have an scx10 anymore, and then he's selling a new scx10 kit his wife bought him because he already has a couple scx10's (that ad is deleted now.)

Maybe he's just all over the place and has good intentions. Seems he's bought/sold a lot of stuff with good feedback up until yesterday. Maybe he's in the hospital or something. I hope you all didnt get screwed.

[freakofnature]

i posted up on 2 other forums i belong to in the tx sections asking the guys there to keep a look out for my jammin and to snatch it up for me

[CURTDOGG]

The last time I talked to him about a trade for the honcho kit for my sc10 rs which I never sent cause I had a feeling and the last pm was December 10.

[freakofnature]

well just found out that he is also on rctech.com but hasnt been active in a while there and he also listed his email add guess who is gonna get a nice email from me

[lowridinjuggalo]

Wtf. I hope that this is not a scam. I sorry for the ones that sent stuff to him if it is

[-NB-]

This is messed up.

May radar went off weeks ago on this guy.
Wanting free parts to build a rig for a less fortunate kid.
That's all well and good but at the same time he is selling
all kinds of parts and rigs. Including a new honcho!
Come on guys, this one was easy to spot.

Of course I could be wrong, (ask my wife) , and he has
just stumbled upon some bad stuff beyond his control. We shall see.

[rockrigcustoms]

Ya I think we all got taken. I didn't even look around or put 2 & 2 together after the other posts. It did throw a red flag with the honcho kit though! Is already shipped... Who makes up this shit? Gotta dig pretty low in the barrel for this one!

I agree with you, If he's helping a local kid then why not just give it one of his many SCX10's. I know he's a tow and recovery guy down there but I don't know anyone thats leaves laptops in a car thats broke down.

[j-bird]

Yeah all of you got took this guy is a fraud that's what I tried warning people about when he posted a brand new kit for sale and them when I posted he took it down it prob came from another site that he pulled the same shit on.. This is sad guys.. But when someone is only a member for a couple months and has very little feedback then you shouldn't trust these guys unless someone who is known can back them.. I hope this didn't happen but after I posted about the kit and he got so offensive I almost spoke my Mind but didn't want everyone to think I was a grinch or jump to conclusions but I had a gut feeling just because he was selling all kinds of parts that could've been donated... And he deleted his location that used to be posted..and never mentioned the kids name always called him this kid I was fishy from the beginning

Thats possible

in his profile under occupation it says "in jail"

I am new to to this forum , but have years in many others including RCMT.net . Advrider.com and others . And it seems like once in awhile some numbskull comes around that thinks he can beat the system .
You guys that mailed him stuff , you know where he lives, contact the authorities and ask what can be done . Seems to me that mail fraud could come into play , he deceived you into mailing him this equipment under false pretenses , that is a felony.
I hope it isn't true , because of it is , this guy is a special breed of dirtbag and should have the rug pulled out from under him . Contact the local authorities guys , he has a record on these sites and should be held accountable for these transgressions .
