What can i do? Cl fail

bigpapapump · 03-21-2011, 10:04 PM

So long story short i sold rims to some guy around 3 months ago. They were near mint and came with tires that were bald in back and perfect tires in front... He had his car lowered and fenders not rolled and the rims he bought from me were rubbing.. So just today he somehow has my number and txts me saying "he wants his money back and hell give me my rims back because he scratched the rim and the front tires have massive camber wear and thats not what he thought would happen or some BS" saying he remembers were i live and all this BS
all i could tell him was leave me the **** alone and dont come anywere near here... and your not getting your money back because 1 its been 3 months and 2 you ****** the rims up yourself...

What do i do? change my number? what would you do? hes one of those worthless mexican dudes, im not scared of him but i dont wanna be harassed since my family lives here aswell...

Report the harassment to the local PD. Beyond that, not much you can do besides sleep with a weapon.

yea that sux it has to resort to something like that.. i wish it was like the old west and i challenge him to a dual! lol

Probably wouldn't have been as rude but stayed firm in your position. You don't want to provoke him. If anything you want to see if he'll actually issue a threat that you can report.

This sounds more like something that will go away depending on his distance to you and how you react. I would definitely alert local PD that there could be a situation with this guy. Other than that there's really nothing you can do.

+1 to that.
Get the history going right now.

If he threatened you and you have proof on the text get a restraining order. That way it makes it illegal for him to be anywhere near you.

Racist much?

Tell him, sorry, but all sales final. You don't have his money, and you aren't obligated to return it.

Him saying he knows where you live... was it a threat or what?

Sounds like he hasn't actually threatend you or done anything illegal, so chill.

post up the messages between you and him

Corona370z · 03-22-2011, 09:18 AM

Gonna go ahead and jump on the "tell the local PD" wagon. Good luck with everything.

It is an implied threat, and worth reporting.

Having dealt with these situations before, it is extremely helpful to build a history before anything happens. That way if he shows up at your house and you knock him out, there's much less chance of you being legally prosecuted.

hey, guy... if you're reading this, leave the OP alone. what you are asking for is totally ridiculous. if you want your money back, sell the wheels to someone.

Jordo! · 03-22-2011, 02:06 PM

Will the police actually care or do anything for that tho'?

Guess there's no harm in trying, but in my experience, until something actually happens the police don't do squat.

They will do nothing, but you need to build the history.
