O.K. I got this email August 30, 2007 in regard to a knife I purchased.

It was shipped from XXXXXXX, but the return address is for XXXXXXX. I went down to the office I shipped it from, and the supervisor told me that 2 weeks for a 1st class package was "too soon to push the panic button". He said it will most likely show up eventually, but that the automated system they use that reads handwritten zip codes sends things all over the place all the time. I never heard of this sort of thing, myself.

I'm so sorry that this has become such a hassle. I always ship these things Priority, but I had my wife do this one cuz I've been so busy with the tourists that come to town this time of year, and I didn't specify for her what to do. Unfortunately it didn't have insurance or delivery confirmation like I thought, so if this doesn't make it to you shortly I'll have to just eat it and refund your money out of pocket. They told me it would most likely show up to you, or get returned to me. I will be anxious to have either happen. He told me to come back if 30 days passes, which seemed extreme to me, but he said it probably went somewhere else first, and is making its way around to Quincy. Again I'm really sorry. I messed up on my end not getting a tracking number put on it, and I'm really sorry. I'll make sure this is taken care of one way or another though. I promise. Thanks Peter for your patience and understanding.


Still I have nothing for my $250.00. He said he had all kinds of problems (health and such) so I said I could wait. But He continually buys and sells here
(I emailed and he said he usually has to sell anything he buys because he can't afford it) That was March so I waited a little longer and I sent an email saying he could send small amounts or I would even take a trade, and the last time I said I would take an item he was selling for $200 and we could call it even. he never replied and then I got a little angry and asked him to man up and get me my money ASAP it was 8 months at that time. So every time I see an item for sale from him I send a little reminder email (not to polite) asking for my money back.

I don't want to smear his name and I really think he is a good guy, Itrader confirms many of you have had good dealings with him, I just get a little heated every time I think if this
So...... Any advice?
 
This may be a post for the GB&U. Up to the mods though. Good luck, I hope you get your money, and if its a HOG I sure hope they man up.
 
Wow that sucks. This belongs in GB&U. I really hope you get something out of all of this and I think other potential buyers might be interested in this.
 
What are you waiting for... A whole YEAR to go by? I think that you've given him plenty of chances to do the right thing, even in small amounts at a time. PLEASE post this in the GB&U before he does this to another member. I will not want to deal with him on anything until he's settled up with you.
 
do

post up your EDITED transaction

Hogs will see it.

You also need to post this person's name as this is not right, no matter what other feedback exists.
 
Could you please identify the other party? I would hate to have the same experience! Seems like you have a good case to let us know.
 
You are one patient man!!!

Time to out the guy, he has had more than ample time to make this right.

The scam quackin can be heard in the distance. If it ...............................
 
First -Thanks thathamguy should have put it here in the first place

Second - Vance I appreciate your sympathy but don't get yourself in trouble

Third - I have taken all your information into account and am still hoping he will man up, another day perhaps and then I will make his name clear.

I would like to give him one last chance to set things right.

I apologies for my restraint I know you all would like to avoid like situations.

- As usual my good nature is being used against me.

You are a saint. 8 months? Good God man! One more chance? I'd be wanting to strangle someone after 8 months. I hope you get out of him what he owes you. He should give you something extra for all the problems and the wait. I'm sorry Brother, that sucks.
 
8 months is ridiculous.....the other party has had plenty of time to make this right.....


if he has not made it right in 8 months, chances are, he will never make it right.....



please tell us who he is, so we can avoid dealing with the same person.....you would be doing the rest of us a favor...a person like this doesn't deserve to do business in the busse forum....he will continue to take advantage of the trusting nature of most hogs in the busse forum.....this person deserves to be blackballed, until he makes this situation right with you......


just my opinion, and i hope everything gets eventually worked out for you.....
