Not much you can do.It has happened to me here several times which is why I will not list anything for sale here nor reply to any ones wanted items.Never ship anything before it is paid for.

Funny thing Radtech is I just sold 4 early disc willys mb wheels as I was going with combat wheels, I posted them to the Facebook G-503 page and had a bunch of members step up. Sold them for 280.00 each plus shipping, went to get a shipping quote and called the buyer and he agreed to the quote, he called me after work to say he was sending the funds via pay-pal and asked when I would be able to ship them to which I informed him that they were already on their way. He posted enough on the page and even though I never met him we had mutual FB friends so I never even thought twice about it.

The member here has 250+ posts so for the small amount I asked for I just shipped it as I figured who would ruin their reputation for lunch money...lol

lesson learned.

It runs both ways. I "purchased" a air compressor that a guy had listed for sale, here on this site, and agreed to his price. I set up shipping with Fastenal, and was paying for the shipping to Fastenal when I picked it up. Sent him the funds Priority Mail, and he received it on Friday. He told me he would drop it of on Monday. I do not hear back from him till Thursday with me emailing him asking if he had dropped it off.

He tells me no, It was given to him by a friend of his Dad and his Dad was mad about him selling it. So he would return my money.

Funny thing I went back on the boards here, and he had posted a couple years earlier how he bought it at the Aberdeen MVPA Rally.

I think he just got a better offer.

I contacted Ron, and he stated there was nothing he could do.

We need a rating system of some kind for sellers and buyers......

Sold them for 280.00 each plus shipping,
If somebody stiffed me for that amount, I know what I would be doing about it. There are people who take care of those kind of things on every corner.
So, lets start by posting his name for all to see.

Maytag it was only 23 dollars not 280.00, the comment about the wheels was just to show the irony of getting beat for a small amount, I will give it another week then I will call him out in a new thread..................
