wrillo Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Why haven't you taken him to small claims court? You could hit him up for interest, court associated costs, etc. I know its only $200, but thats your $200!Have you reported to BBB? Does he only take cash? Did you get a receipt from him? I'd bet he isn't keep up with small business taxes, I'd tip the IRS off on him too! Do more than you have man!edit: did you get your wheels back?

Do more than you have man!edit: did you get your wheels back?its amazing.. his shit gets flagged and then he FINALLY calls me back. I didnt answer but whatever.I didnt report him... I paid through paypal for some of the money and some was through parts from my busa. I got smy wheels back thankfully but they didnt have anything really done to them. he stripped them and one of them was coated but the coating was CRAP so i had my guy redo them.We almost came to an agreement a couple times.. then he got mad at me for flaggin his posts when half the time it wasnt me.. then he never paid me back like i said.now he's blowing my phone up as i type this.

camaroguy72 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 it's comforting to know you have a force like this community to stand behind you when you have a valid complaint about a business...I'm posting about him "08r1man" on r1-forum as well as him as "chromeowner" on hayabusa.org hes ripped off more people than me and well... if he wont pay me back and chooses to spend his money elsewhere ... well thats his problem if this is what happens. as he stated, and I quote..." i'm not in the business of giving refunds" ... .what a guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V4junkie Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Yeah small claims court sounds like a good idea. If it was my couple hundred bucks it would definitely be worth the man hours to make his life miserable. What a tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclaimer Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 You could probably do an "RE:" or "ATTN:" post to his ad, and throw a link to this thread in there. Save you the trouble of flagging, and the only one flagging your ad would probably be him.Not only would it show people what a scam this guy is running, but also pick up a few potential new board members.

camaroguy72 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 heh. he left me a voicemail telling me that he was staring at a $250 usps money order right now that he had made out to me and he was going to mail it out right now but since i'm playing these games by flagging him he's thinking he should keep it for himself and yadda yadda. Right. I'm sure. Considring the dude doesnt even have my address.... I wonder where he was gonna send it to?

camaroguy72 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Update! I got cash in my pocket... he moneygram'd it over to me today as he said. He apologized for taking so long and gave me the full refund as promised, no questions. He was blowing up my phone because he wanted to let me know he was going to pay me today to clear this debt and what not. I can appreciate that he finally took care of it.
