CHINX74RX2 ripped me off...

Well its been few months now.. he had a set of racing beat springs for sale and sent him teh money order hers the full pm conversation



Me--I would like to purchase these :-) give me all the info i need to get you the money and ill give you mine for shipping
Brian

Him--MARCO FONG
"His address"


Me--cool i will get this sent out tomarrow. prolly gonna send it USPS next day..


Him--A POSTAL MONEY ORDER????

Me--Of course nothing but the best :-)

Him--IF U SEND IT VIA USPS,IT MIGHT BE A LIL CHEAPER....

i am sending is usps.. money order/post office all in one shot\

KOOL!!

did you get the money order today?

Hey, YES i got the money order!!! Im SORRY to say i SOLD them that same morning.....I can send u back the money or find u another set if thats OK????AGAIN I AM SORRY,I WILL DEFINETLY THROW IN SUMTHING EXTRA FOR YOUR TROUBLES!!!!LET ME KNOW WHAT U WOULD LIKE TO DO....

well that is kinda shitty but what can you do.. you can just take and buy a set from racing beat and have them shipped to my addy since they are basically the same price as the ones you were selling.. hit me back up and let me know what you want to do...

ILL GO BUY THEM DIRECTLY FROM RACING BEAT SINCE IM NOT FAR FROM THERE.ITLL BE BETTER SINCE YOULL BE GETTING A NEW SET...


then another set of pms with him after a few weeks


Him---hey,dont think im pulling a fast one,i just havent had a chance to go by racing beat.ill definetly keep u updated when i get em.

ME--its cool, i still need to get my tokicos and some other stuff so i can swap my gsl rear into the car. im gonna do it all at once so i dont have to 3 or 4 times

yeah,im going to go with some eibach springs cuz they lower the car more than the rb's....

any word on teh springs?

really sorry for the extra time delay.ill be headed to racing beat in the next week.ill try to have them directly shipped from there!!!ill let u know as soon as i get the chance.sorry again .ill throw in some thing extra for free!!!

Hey there i have teh rest of my suspension components on the way and was wondering if you had a chance to have my springs ordered?

I will try to have them shipped directly from them during this next week along with the extra some thing as I promised...Thnx.


and the last one

Hey!! I havent forgot about u!!! Im trying to get some funds together so u can get ur NEW springs...I'll also include something extra like I promised...
Thanks again for your patience....



Since then it has been over 2 months and a few pms later and no response.. if i dont get the springs i would at least like to have my money back.. i have been very patient in this matter and would really like some resolve

Man, that's shitty. I hope you get your springs or money, but at this point I wouldn't hold my breath. Guy sounds like a typical scammer douche.

This is gettin' ridiculous. There's a thread like this every other day. How do you sell something from under someone once you've agreed to send him a payment?!?

Just make a claim with USPS if he cashed that MO and did not for fill his end of the deal, you can prosecute him! USPS is federal and they don't take fraud lightly. Pay Pal is terrible! I have been using Pay Pal for over 5 years and I never had one claim or anything bad transactions until a few weeks ago with Cory (1twistedrx7) and screwed me over! Pay pal isn't doing **** yet! All they have done is collect a 63 cents for me, out of 350.00!

Anyways back to your deal if he keeps giving you the run around just make a claim... I got all this info from my sister who is FBI agent, I will never you Pay Pal again.... Trust me you ll get your money back as I will.....

Whats going on with this? No reply from him?? I was going to buy some stuff from him a while ago, he seemed like a good guy.
Can we get some mods on this? I'm pretty sure he's active on the forum.
