looks like they deleted a few posts, the kid (I guess no more then 20 if that) who made the STFU comment threw a jab at me as well. Not that I give a fuck.

At least the mods are trying to let it be to see the resolution.


Let's leave the Towlley/Jake issue as concluded as of now. I'm sure Joe will update this thread if the parts are not received or not as advertised.

Mods,

It would be helpful to edit the first post with a current list of known assholes, and maybe a brief description of their offense. Reading through 50+ pages isn't realistic, anymore.

Thanks.

That's a really good idea. Have it be a sticky.

I like that idea!!

The only problem I see with that is that someone is going to have to decide on who is a bad seller and who isn't to create and maintain this list. If you just put anyone called out in this thread on that list, I think it'll be worthless. I don't recall but I believe there have been people called out in this thread that didn't turn out to be bad sellers after all.

And that's what we have moderators for. They seem to be doing a good job about staying on top of it.

A person interested in buying from someone after looking over their iTrader feedback, could search by username in the classified section and see i they come up bad in the bad sellers thread!

if there name is mentioned possibly have what pages they are listed on? May take a little bit of work. But then again, if someone wants to know about a seller, they should only have to search their name in the search button and if they are in this thread, it will pop up

It had a direct link to each post they were mentioned in, like if you search HOLYWD there are 2 pages with each post that has his name mentioned

OK, I was gonna keep this to myself, but I just heard of another buyer that got dissed by the same guy, so here goes.

I had a deal in place to buy some Long Tube headers from Hufen. We had agreed on a price after haggling. He is local to me, so we even set up a place and time to meet up and make the swap the next day. On that morning, he messages me, telling me that he decided to keep them.

In his thread, I see another poster, who was also interested in them add to his sig: "LT's in the mail". Of sourse I PM both parties, but neither would respond. So basically, he made a deal with me, and cancelled it when he got a better offer.

Anyone who makes a deal with this guy, be very careful, If he agrees to a price with you, he WILL sell them to someone else if he gets a better offer.

onebadgsx - it sucks, but IMO, it's first come first served, if someone has the cash in hand, as a seller you take it, too many times (not saying you would do so) the buyer says "give me till XXX" or "just gotta get my paycheck Friday" etc and they then back out.

Bodam - if he in fact backed out with the line "I'm keeping them" and sold them elsewhere that is not cool.

Not standing up for anyone here but until money changes hands, the deal is not final. At least in my opinion.

I saved the PM's so he doesn't have a leg to stand on. I'm over it, but I just wanted the other members to be aware.
