Scam Warning Thread / Bad experience with a member / bad or no shipment

I saw your album earlier, that is a shame you had to experience those problems. As long as they are cosmetic, most of the damage can be fixed with some

Matt,
I'm very sorry to see this. .

I had a VERY good experience with UPS damage claim. In my case, the UPS guy left my item on the porch. Then, it rained all day the next day. I called UPS and they had my claim processed in 5 minutes and I had my replacement product on my doorstep in 3 days!

I suggest you calling them and file the claim. Answer any questions they ask you and see where it goes. InfmousAXEL did say that if they deny it, send him the paperwork. He will follow up on it. Personally in my case, no one even came to check my box. They just asked the manufacturer and sent me another identical item. Hopefully everything works out.

Default Jmbeebe0722 use caution

Contacted this seller Jmbeebe0722 thru the classified to buy a set of mats. I noticed he was a new member but the product looked good and he was able to text me pictures. We agreed upon the price for the item plus shipping so I mailed him out his check. I no sooner got back from the post office mailing his money and he texts me back that he wanted to cancel the sale as he found someone local. I stated I had already mailed his payment and he said okay. I good faith I tried to call him and he couldn't even return the call. Then I noticed that ther is a posting on the forum from another member boasting what a great set of mats he just purchased from guy.

Used extreme caution if you choose to deal with this guy as you are apt to send payment for an item and he will sell it to some one else. Now it will interesting to see if he returns my check.

no offense but that doesn't seem all that bad, yes it was wrong of him to sell it to someone else but he found it less of a hassle to sell locally then ship it, and you are not even sure if he has cashed the cheq or he has just thrown it out or not. i would have been more patient till you heard back about the cheq before going and calling someone out, once again i understand it was not right of him to sell to someone else

Doesn't really sound like a scam as much as just hurt feelings. You didn't mention if the buyer was infact local to him. If you are worried about the check you should go to the bank and place a stop payment on it. There might be a fee but this is exactly why 99% of people on the forum use paypal if not buying something in person.

EDIT: The buyer was 11 miles away from the seller... sorry but I don't think that had malicious intent, just bad timing.

Wish I've seen this earlier. Sold a Valentine V1 to him and now he is claiming that I sent him a defective unit that did not work and had a different serial number. Of course I accepted his refund upon returning the item back before I read this so now I'm pretty sure he will ship me back an entirely different unit that is not working and still keep the one I sold him for free. SCUMBAG!!! I alerted Paypal of this. Anyone know if you can appeal as a seller after a tracking number is submitted by the buyer? Paypal will certainly issue him a refund after he provides a tracking number.
