you know it.

 

[surfjunkie]

yeah with all that has gone on and how his name has been drug through the mud, you would think he would cease the light bulb changing project and go get you the info you need to clear things up.

i dont get his m.o.

if all this had been said about me, i would drive the part from california to florida myself to prove everyone wrong.

he seems indifferent to the criticism.

:dunno::scratchchin:

 

[Foximus]

yeap... so he didnt call back and again is not picking up. Whodathunk.

 

[termite]

He got me too 3 broken bolts in motor listed as in "great shape" NOT

I forget how long it took him to ship it but it was at the UPS store right where he left it 2 weeks before they shipped it. He said they had the wrong CC# so he paid them cash and wouldn't respond to my PMs after that.

This quote from a thread nikad actually started is what takes the cake for me. Lecturing others on selling/buying etiquette......:ugh2:

http://www.x-h2o.com/threads/15929

As most of you know I do sell alot on here and have heard it all as far as people wanting things and I just must vent this..

Dibs explained...
Dibs doesn't mean...
1. Can you hold it till I get my tax return..
2. Can you hold it a few days while I think about it..
3. Can you hold it untill I sell my part..
4. Can you hold it untill I find out if it's what I want..
5. Can you hold it until my butt breaks..
6. Can you take $100.00 shipped for the part you want $150.00+shipping for ?
PM's are for that !!!

Dibs means..
1. How would you like your payment !

Prices..
This happens all the time !!
Boy I get the urge and catch myself wanting to say something like..
1. That part goes for $50.00 less
2. Hey I have been trying to sell that same part for a month for $100.00 less here look at my thread (link posted).. thinking I'm helping him but really it's a high jacking of a thread and a horrible thing to do !

Questions...
Questions can turn a whole "for sale thread" into a "repair manual/how to do that" thread and should be asked in the forum section..
example..
1. If I buy that what else will I need to do back flips ?" etc.
(note) Yes it is hard to say what a good qestion about a product is, but most everything has been covered (at least once) in the forum sections !
PLEASE search before you call DIBS or high jack a thread !!

Products..
This site as well as others has a product issue sometimes..
You and I have seen this a million times !!
example..
"X#1" part for sale... $200.00
1. Hold out and buy a "X#2" part, its by far the best and everyone says so !
"X#1" part breaks/leaks whatever.. But the truth is there are some very good parts that come very close to performing as well but come up a little short.. but is it $300.00 short ?
Not the point ! The point is "it's" someones elses part for sale and people are just repeating others and really have no clue or testing to back it up.. THE TRUTH IS... Proper set up/combinations with less "good" parts will do more than alot of best parts buying with no proper set up !!

A BIG note: We need to act like there is a company out there saying..
I will pay all your gas and rebuilds for the year or sure feel free to use my lake, hotel, beach, etc. but can I go to X-h2o to see what kind of people I'm thinking of backing up for a year !

:haha:

Like I said, he probably answers for me, because I owe him money! I'm just relaying what he told me. :wiggle:

 

[Matt_E]

He's a different kinda guy.

:biggthumpup:

 

[Foximus]

Well like I said, He called me back and told me he was busy let me call you back in 30 minutes. An hour went by and no call back. So again I started the back to back calls. another 25 in a row. Nothin.

What a prick.

 

[Tuttle]

yeap... so he didnt call back and again is not picking up. Whodathunk.

Me!!! I don't even have ESP of any psychic powers either. :moon:

 

[yankeeboy]

i called, his mail box is full. No one lives by this guy to go knock on his door?

 

[Foximus]

Thank You Nikad!

Yes thank you. for ruining my spring break. Jerkhole.


Im sorry 31 days wasnt convenient enough for you.

 

[KaosFreestyle]

Have you called from the same phone number everytime?

 

[Foximus]

unfortunately yes. I dont have any other numbers to call from atm.

 

[cambo au]

I didnt get screwed...yet. I have 45 days to file with paypal, which i plan on doing so, and escalating it if need be. The paypal account is under his girlfriends name, so ill be getting my money from someone. Of course the package could be at my house right now.....


edit: nope, not today.

i feel for you guys but that is the funniest thing i have ever read he just got screwed (if that is the truth) by one female and now he is doing deals through his new g/f s paypal account " i thought the saying was once bitten twice shy" seems in nikads case he is the dumbest prick out there .
it is amazing how strong that furry magnet can be to some people:grumble::rant:

 

[Mike W]

I got bit a while back so I don't deal with the guy anymore. I gave him a second chance and bought a starter from him. So 10 days go by without seeing it in the mail so I email him to remind him to send it.

Butch is a nice guy but I just will not buy anything else from him. Anyone who does should know what they are getting into.

 

[Pablo]

if one could see his feedback forum (like how ebay does) right beside the for sale items it might give all the buyers a moment of pause b4 they thought about buying from him. it's gotten comical, but not to the folks who's cash is floating out there.

 

[BombThreat]

i called, his mail box is full. No one lives by this guy to go knock on his door?

lookup all his neighbors and ask to have them get ahold of him. Ive done that before and it worked.

 

[Foximus]

all i have is his cell phone number and no address. So if someone has his address to divulge...

 

[Cliff]

how did you pay for this? if by credit card, call them and cancell the transaction. Fu** him. sorry, i didnt read all 4 pages of this thread as im sure its like the other nikad threads. good luck and i hope you get your pipe

 

[Foximus]

yea... I dont think you need a Recap.. Same as most of the others, Except the others eventually get their product or money back. I'm hoping my case is the same.


I always use paypal so im not to terrified about the money. Already filed the dispute. Just waiting another day or two to escalate it to paypal fixing it.
