Default Buyers & Sellers Beware v. 2.0

Well...here's two more new ones and an old favorite from the scumbag list..

Story #1...

Marshal Macri
Schambuag IL

So he still owed me the 30.00 from last time... and then decided to order a model from my latest batch a Jet-X AA Freighter for 30.00 . I figured I'd be a nice guy and give him a second chance So this is over two weeks ago... and still nothing. So I cancelled the transaction and told him to just send me my original 30.00 so we could both go our ways... I get this in reply...

" I don't think you are in a very good position to be ordering me to do anything. The only thing I can think you could do is cancel my wings900 membership, and oh, would I be in tears

You will get your money, when you get your money, which by the way, you do not need nor deserve. Do you really think I can't do math?" "

Anyways, I think that shows it all what time of scum the little kid is, if I don't get my money before Wednesday I think a call to "mommy" who's number I have is needed....

Story 2 & 3....

With the models I had for sale from the latest batch... we had two people that were all gung ho in ordering hundreds of dollars of models and then when it came time to pay... no payment.. DEAD BEATS... OI!!!! So beware of the following;

Name: Pedro Santos
Username: CX787
Location: New Jersey

Name: Mike ?
Username: mgshulof
Location: Boston, MA

t's a shame we have these scum as forum users.... but fair warning to all of you!!!

Ahhhhh.... Pedro Santos!!
Yes how could I forget, Mr. Santos was my 1st ever glitch early in my internet buying days. I don't exact remember all the details, but I got scammed by this individual on eBay way wayyyy back. eBay and Paypal were slow to act... man!! I really don't recall crap now, but 1 thing I'll never forget is that name PEDRO SANTOS from NJ.....

I don't understand why people send models before receiving payment. You don't know these people and here you go sending them models. Don't you think you are asking for trouble?

Big No no, You cannot be a nice guy on this hobby. Someone at somewhere in this world will take advantage of that and give you the finger up on your face as a thank you for being a nice guy.

Of course models weren't sent. But models were pulled off the "sale line" so now instead of them being shipped out to new destinations with the rest of the batch they're sitting here. Just a fair warning in not to do business with them so they don't waste your time too!
