That's pretty fukd up . Can you elaborate on what happened so that other members can be wary?

[Qik-1.8]

the guy also ripped off another member on here that doesnt own a gsr no more,
he brought a 4g93 off him and he told the member that it was in great condition, his mate went to get the engine got it home and the engine was seized

[Gianni]

Well I have emails from him. Him giving me bank accounts. I even sent him a reciept as well. If worst case I can get transaction reversed. And go to police and have him done for fraud.

WTF is wrong with people these days??

I was always a bit skeptical about this guy- always had parts for sale, but never joined in the forum as far as telling us who he was/what car he had etc.

Wasn't this guy originally from S.A??? He regularly logs into GVR4.org.au

I called him on Monday and he said he was posting them Tuesday. He had been moving house so no net. I'll call him in an hour and see what happened. If not I'll go to bank and have transaction reversed. Being an ausie account it can be daily done through banks. Will keep u posted

[Gianni]

Tried callin about 5 times. No answer. I'll try again at lunch then head down to bank

Yeah that's the one, I had a few dealings with him years ago on mgec and found him to be a bit suss.

I met the guy in person once when I bought some tail lights and a bumper off him.
Apart from being overpriced he seemed legit at the time?
Spoke to him for a while and he said that he travels alot and is pretty busy with work and rally-car-fixing or whatever he does.
A bit vague, but straight-forward.
I paid just under $500 in parts from a car he bought from my mate I could of had entirely for $1000!
Meh, his good luck I guess.

Good luck getting your money back dude.

[Gianni]

I don't want my money back. I want my parts
Look. He might have posted them. He might still. But it's looking sus Coz he isn't answering his phone. And from stories.

Mdk87. If u have dealt with him before. Do u mind giving him a buz for me and finding out the situation or getting a tracking number. Thanks I know it's not ur business though

Lol, all good. I deleted the number I had but I rang the number above and......guess what? -> No answer! haha
Give it some more time I reckon dude, he did seem like a busy guy..
Maybe get the transaction reversed for now and speak to him later when he answers the phone?

[Gianni]

Yeah. Bank is sending him letters asking for money back.

Like I said still a chance his done the right thing just feeling 70% like a con ATM. I'll keep u guys posted if any updates.

Query for admins. Anyway to set up a few reputation levels for sellers. Like people with good rep can ask for money upfront just like normal. If u develope a bad rep can we have a mark that shows up in their avatar. And maybe a system where there is an account where customer pays into but seller can only receive the money once goods arrive. It's obviously a rare occasion thing. And might take up a little more time and work for people. But would probs drive away scammers more than anything. And that way if it's a once off mistake try can still repair there reputation through trusting others.

Hi Guys,

All good. We are back on track. I hear from today. Left his phone yesterday so didn't get it till this morning. His sending tracking numbers tonight

I guess moral of the story is it is important to keep a good reputation on here

[cbgsr]

i have bought from him before drove out to warwick though seemed like a decent guy but he is hard to get a hold off, he definetaly does have alot of parts keep us updated but i would buy from him again
