You know, I've got to say... you do know hyperformance2k IS a retired vet right? That comment is COMPLETELY uncalled for.

And furthermore, just call it a loss over the 55 bucks. You could go to work for a few hours and make that money back, rather than wasting 5 years worth of time for some money you are probably never going to get.

Time= money. And it this point you are chasing pennies.

Ive been ripped off on the forum for 10 times the amount you have been shorted, 5 years ago as well. And you haven't seen me whining for the last 5 years.

I've re-arranged that post since it appears some reading comprehension ability to understand the running conversation is lacking.

Again, to all, if you're not replying to help, don't bother replying at all. I don't care what has happened before, I'm looking for some help, not mewing advice.

Anymore bad advice is simply going to be deleted.

Nothing beyond this statement, "Well, I've followed you since you joined RX-7 Club, so I trust you've got the process started. (blah, blah, blah)....I'm just very patient...when I tried AIM this year, I found him active again and started the process all over again.

Thanks for the help, Mario III
"
, has been directed at HP2K. Read that again...does it make sense now?

If it's someone on this website, let me know...we've become very proficient at squeezing $$$ from the would-be scammers here. For some reason, they actually value being on this website.

Still, there's nothing quite as satisfying as having the person in your clutches, no doubt.

Can we close this thread already?? Mar3, it should be blindingly obvious that nobody in the NW has any intention of helping you with this matter. This threads very existence and the fear of people replying what they really think screams abuse of your mod powers. Hell, you had this thread stickied for a minute. I can't help but think that if the roles were reversed, you wouldn't be going out of your way to help us out either, let alone stickying threads in your regional forums for us.

I agree with you. We don't need this. We can't do anything to help. The ony thing that can be done is between then buy and seller. I am going to contact another admin and get this thread locked.

I do, you simply have no idea...just pull up my profile and then check the posts.

Quite frankly, if everybody had replied, "Oh, gawd, what do you really expect from us? Greg is a freakin' loser who ripped me off in the past also. He hasn't reformed he's still a two-bit con rippin' people off. If I never had to see him again, it would be too soon."

Instead, I get "a diff man maybe? ive done several successful bizness transactions with him the past few years." and then "I'm a good friend of Greg's and he's been nothing but reliable with me through the years. I've done thousands of dollars wirth of transactions with him and never been hustled. I talked to Greg today and he said he totaly forgot about the part considering it's been about 5 years since you've even talked to him, he's not even on these boards anymore. He said he'll mail you out a money order on Friday.", giving me hope that something was actually done.

To me, that looks like a real conclusion to this affair? And that was NOT from 5 years ago. That was current. I thought something was going to actually happen because of Hyper4mance2K's post. That's just three months ago. So, do all of H2k's "good friends" lie to him like that or is it just Greg? The difference between $55, $155 or $1550 is simply a matter of relativity. It's all the same thing. I'm going to take your money and laugh. I have stolen from you, too bad. STOLE your money.

Again, if it hadn't been for H2k's post, this thread would have died.

So, who's zoomin' who?

Geez, you are too funny...ok, let's flip this. My PayPal is mar3njeana @juno.com.

Put $55 in there and put your money where your mouth is since it's "just $55" and no big deal. .

i dont know man.. i see it this way.. you gave him 55 dollars. now its 5 years later. this whole time you have been in the pursuit of happiness. you have been pursuing it for 5 years. which would equal a total of 11 dollars a year. you paid 11 dollars a year for the pursuit of happiness.. i have to pay 10 a MONTH for netflix, now i feel ripped off.
im just joking though. i really hope you do get your money back. best of luck to you

OH MY GOSH
You know this is a loss cause trying to get your money from Greg. $55 is not worth all the stress. He will never pay you, and you know that. If I paid you $55 would this really go away, and you forget about it? NO, I think you would still pursue it again and again, still wanting Greg to pay you $55. So are you saying, if any other forum member paid the $55 you would be happy?

i think he was just making a point. $55 dollars is a lot to me right now. that would actually be a god send and i would be that much closer to being able to pay for this months car insurance

Exactly...the point was to show the hypocrisy of those crying that "it's only $55."

It's ALWAYS nothing to worry about when it's someone else. THAT was the actual point. Why do I get this sinking feeling that Greg actually does still hang with some of these people? How can they stand to be around a thief?

I'll pay you $40 just to drop this and I'll "tax" Greg next time I see him.
