Default Anyone bought from mud_slinger ?

I purchased something from him last week from the classifieds and haven't gotten any response to email or pm...he seems to be on rcc about everyday though. Maybe I can get some response to this. He marked the item "SOLD" shortly after I paid but that has been 8 days now. It's kinda frustrating to see visit the site everyday and not reply to people after they had their $ for a week.

Yea, he seemed legit until I found his eBay feedback today. Good at buying stuff, not so good at selling it seems. It's a shame my 8yr old son spent the rest of his birthday cash on this and I have to tell him everyday that I haven't heard back from the guy.

There is no registered member with the user name "mud_slinger"

There is however a "mudd_slinger"

Guessing maybe you just misspelled the name?

I have personally dealt with him earlier this Spring and everything was fine.

I bought a Wraith chassis from him on 8-3 and have not received any Communication from him since I sent the PayPal. What did you purchase?

Another pm was sent just now, I think that is 6 total now. I really hope everything is ok on his end but after seeing the eBay feedback I still fear this is just bad business.

I Said in the last pm if I didnt hear from him or have the item by this Friday I will take steps to receive my $ back. According to his profile he has been online at some point every day that I've looked. One of the eBay buyers said something like no communication and received item 35 days after payment....I'm a patient man, but not that patient. Lol were in the same state for goodness sake, for all I know he may live on my street haha.

I got my product as well but it wasn't really complete. Tried contacting him twice since. Left poor feedback.

Ive bought a couple items from him, got screwed both times. The first time I bit my tongue. They were supposed to be "like new" mudslingers on 2.2 Axial wheels. Two of the tires had super glue running down the sidewalls. I didnt say anything because the price was good. The second time was off Ebay. I bought what was suppose to be a new Wraith seat. It showed up spray painted black and had a screw ran through the seat bottom. When I confronted him about it he accused me of trying to scam him?!?
