Unless he resolves this, his selling days are finished in the Metro forum. I will personally delete every one. We are good guys up here in NY/NJ, and will not let this guy tarnish our name. Let me know if there's any way I can help.

Wow really sorry that this happened to you, I hope you get this resolved. But all this NYer, NYCer bashing is about the most ignorant thing I've ever heard in my life.

Btw, the guy lists his location as Central Jersey. You know I've done countless transactions all across the country from my days on ClubDSM, ClubSi, S2ki, and Club4ag. The only time I've really had a problem is with a guy in Orlando. So does that give me the right to assume that most guys in FL are criminals? Ignorance is a dangerous thing and some of you guys are way over the top.

I can't stand people like this. Someone should go knock on his door and teach him not to do stuff like this again.

I have heard nothing good about this guy.


BTW, I know a bunch of people from NY that are VERY honest. This is just an idiot.

I would take him to small claims court. I agree call your credit card company if you paid with credit card. You have a very strong case in small claims court. I am working up to be a lawyer. I hope you kept all your records.

Look on the bright side you have learned your lesson. You will not make the same mistake twice.

Its true I am a real NYer we are the countries biggest assholes. But I am from Upstate NY. We are pretty rude up here as well. But dishonest we are not. (Even though I did buy a lemon as my last car)(i was too impulsive. Learned my lesson. ) English is my 4th language. My dad does not speak it well at all. I am not very good at writing english. As you may tell. Still no need to knock on him for that. But what he did was wrong.

if this guy isn't willing to make right on what appears to be clearly his wrong; you could make sure he has trouble buying/selling on other forums as well.

his AIM is TuRbOcOuPe97 and that screenname is registered on the following forums.

www.homemadeturbo.com
www.honda-tech.com
www.urbanracer.com
13tharmy.net
www.clubsi.com

his profile on at least a few of those forums matches his 05 S2K Stoner profile on s2ki (i didn't feel like joining the other forums to verify all). if his location and other profile info matches... you have some leverage to prevent sales on those forums.


i also found another possible scams with his screenname:

I sold him my rims a while back, if anybody wants me to post his info maybe I can dig it up. I knew it was him when I read your first post.

BTW if this guy doesnt refund your money than take it to a local rim repair shop... that is your best and cheapest way to get out of the situation. They should be able to fix that right up.
