DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BUY OR SELL ANYTHING FROM THIS MEMBER!

I responded to his ad in the Mall to purchase parts ("3 Fieros being parted out") and paid him through Paypal on January 7, 2019. Since that time, he has failed to provide tracking numbers and ignored or refused to respond to repeated requests for the status of my order.

I attempted to open a resolution case with PP, but because I sent the money as a personal payment, rather than for goods/services their policy is to deny any conflict resolution, so while I was trying to be a good guy and have him avoid paying the PP fee (which I paid), I got screwed twice - no parts, no refund.

Beware, Beware, Beware.

He did the same thing to me this month. He answered my ad for parts needed and I did not hear back from him after I sent the money on 1/7. I opened a ticket with Paypal a couple days ago since I sent the money for goods/services. My loss is only $30.

Why oh why would anyone do that with someone they don't know??!!!

Hey, I feel for you. I detest freakin' thieves and con artists. I hope you either get your goods or your money back... but let this be a lesson to anyone using PayPal with a stranger. Do NOT send money as a "personal payment"!

Yeah, I learned not to be a sap. As Ronald Reagan said, "Trust, but verify."

Without a reply the man is obviously a thief that belongs in prison.
