wow

between scams and overdrawn bank accounts, he is clearly up to no good. forget resolving things between members, i think it's time to get the authorities involved; otherwise he will just move on and find other victims to scam

unfortunently s2ki has become one of the worst places to buy stuff unless you personally know the person or someone you know, knows that person or obviously you're local.... i would advise against purchasing things on s2ki....

to many scammers from sponsors to members....

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe he has some type of association with some other Cali scammers >>

I could have sworn I read posts from this guy defending Final Level Garage / Fillmatic.

Bottom line is BE CAREFUL who you send your hard earned $$$ to. Some people don't care how they make (or should I say steal) a buck from.

wow. I mean I sold another thing recently and I honestly forgot to ship it, but it was still sent like 4 days after the guy paid for it. For the most part I dont give a shit what anyone thinks about me, but I'd like to not burn bridges with that many people. Some people just don't get it. If you make a mistake...come clean. Admit you screwed up and take the beating you deserve. Then try to come back as an ok person.

A few bad apples certainly can ruin things, that's for sure. Luckily, I've had no troubles with the things that I've bought in the general for sale forum (knocks on wood) but you just never know who's honest and who isn't. That's why I prefer to deal with things in Mid-A only, because they can always be checked up on. Sometimes though, you come across a great deal in the general forum, and just cross your fingers that the person is legit. When I sell things, I take plenty of pictures, only use FedEx or UPS, ship within 24 hrs and send tracking numbers immediately. All of those things are what I'd expect as a buyer, and so I do the same in return.

Maybe a seller rating system is in order?
