username1 Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 link to EddieG's post of sale items On June 5th, I wired Eddie the full amount for his bassani headers, exhaust, kb supercharger and heat exchanger. I received the kb supercharger, and heat exchanger on june 12th. last time I have heard anything from him about the exhaust/ headers is aug 14th. I have emailed him on aug 22,30th and sept 5th with no reply. Its has been now 3 months, and I have an incomplete setup and out a fair amount of money!!! I know Eddie has posted other things for sale on this site, I just want to advise everyone of the situation and to beware of any deals made. I know I would want others to do the same. To be completely fair, I WILL update this if anything does change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FordRocks1 Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 WOW!!! That is a surprise because he's a pretty fair person, I know that he did a major move just recently and that his car was in the process of getting either a new tranny or getting lemoned.

Slabo Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 Via our deal, right now im out $1,500 cash (but more for what I will have to/already had to pay to complete my cars setup) I am fairly sure that in Florida that would be considered "grand theft" and could be charged as a felony offense. Call the police. Check out his old posts. Looks like he may have been moving to the DC area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

username1 Posted September 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 He wanted a cashiers check.......that's what I sent him. It would be neat if you could catch him. sent wired him 7,000 to his credit union. few days later i got 1/2 of my stuff.. Then he had car problems, was leaving town for a while for a new job/moving to dc. Then the car had electical problems and went to Gus Machado Ford in Miami. Then transmission issues, now I cant get ahold of him, as I assume he now lives in DC. If someone knows where this dealership is, and wouldnt mind stopping by.. that would be AWESOME!

Man that sucks, but a 7k wire transfer should have raised suspisions. Hell, I made sure I paid Griggs with a credit card because even with a reputable company you just don't know what can happen in a recession (been there, done that). This is what craigslist has to say about wire transfers: Avoid scams and fraud by dealing locally! Beware any deal involving Western Union, Moneygram, wire transfer, cashier check, money order, shipping, escrow, or any promise of transaction protection/certification/guarantee. More info http://www.craigslist.org/about/scams Follow the link as they have some more links on what to do about getting ripped off. Hope you get the guy.

username1 Posted September 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Eddie emailed me today. whether the content of that email was appropriate or called for..........or not, I will discuss that with him, but It did not address the status of my parts. Just his anger of my post on here. So, I do thank someone for passing the information along to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drlovegun Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Good, forward it to the police so they can figure out where he emailed it from and go scoop him up. ANd you should post it, I'm sure it's a giggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really can not see why he would be mad about the thread, money was sent and parts where not, if you are going to sell something be ready to ship the items.

Imatk Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 thanks everyone! will continue to update! Man I sell a lot of stuff on Ebay (about 10-20 items per week) and I have HEARD IT ALL. From "Family Emergency," to, and I'm not kidding, "My wife left me and I don't know my paypal password because she always took care of that." In the end... it's all usually a bunch of bullshit. Either the person was just not bothered enough to send the payment because they didn't want to, wasn't convenient for them, whatever... OR the person never did intend to EVER pay for it and they are some kind of nutjob. Either way it doesn't really matter WHAT their situation is, unless there is TRULY some kind of catastrophe (which I highly doubt is ever the case), you both agreed to a price for specific items and you paid and he didn't send those items-- PERIOD. He should drop his attitude and just man up and say that he didn't have the time and is sorry for making you wait... all the rest is unnecessary bullshit that I'm sure you could care less about. I mean who cares if he didn't get your emails???? He KNOWS he's supposed to ship the items. He HAS the money for them... same old bullshit... same stories I hear daily. SUCK IT UP and send his parts!
