    the dude surfaced or was it just his old thread was bumped here?

    thread was bumped as a warning against him. I'm trying to stay out of things here but through some ingenuity, I found a way to get him to be aware he needs to contact Dave ASAP and make things right.

    I am also not a heavy hitter on this board but I like the A+ list. While I only have 3 trades I have used the list and been very happy with the results of my trades. I don't have a paypal account so I have just been having people send me a check in the mail and I take it on faith. In all 3 trades the check and the posters pass each other in the mail.
    I am a trusting type of person though and I suppose after I get burned I'll do it differently but as of right now I believe in the goodness of people and PJ karma.

    Well, I finally caught up with this guy. He says he sent the poster, but he didnt insure or get tracking for it(doesnt seem to understand thats his screw up, not mine) nor did he get any of my attempts at contact on here, on FB, on his phone, or on his personal email, and somehow its my fault i never contacted him Expressobeans, where he would have responded immediately. Aaannnyways

    but!! he wants you guys to know The situation is being rectified and he's sending the pick back to me, and he sends this message to you all (I'm not kidding)

    FYI- let them know I just landed an Emek PJ 96 for $415 :)

    Me, Ill consider this recitified when the pick is back in my hands. And hoping he takes on board my repeated insistence that he provide me tracking number for the envelope. We'll see.


    That's where we're at right now. I'll keep you guys updated. Thanks to those who helped tracking him down and for the back up.

    Fuck that, 5against1 is still a shitty person for doing this AGAIN. I'm sure EVERYONE here is tired of his shit. Dude, 5against1, do us all a favor and go FLIP your shit on eBay. And if ANYONE else "tries" to do business with this scammer, then be fair warned, you're gonna get fucked one way or another. Just not the pleasant way. :lol:

    sounds like a solution has been found.

    the excuses suck and does anyone care about the poster deal? why would anyone be bothered about that?

    I mean he scored a good deal there but is it really relevant?

    He doesn't and won't learn. Hope you the pick back but wouldn't be too hopeful about it.

    i'd call him a sucker for paying 400+ for a poster

    furthermore, why should we even believe him.

    Whew, now that its cleared up, I feel completely safe in making a future trade with 5 Against 1.

    So, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that this got lost in the mail, however if the trade was done here, it's his fault for not checking back here for messages. And not getting ANY of your messages on here, FB, phone or personal email? I call bullshit. Getting it and not remembering to respond, I can kinda get, however, completely disrespectful. Then add that to this not being the first time? BULLSHIT!! I'm sorry this happened to you. If it helps anyone at all, I always check people's post history before agreeing to any transaction. Anything that makes me uncomfortable about them, even if they are rude to someone in one post or I don't like their choice of words, I don't deal with them. Or if my initial PM exchanges give me a bad vibe, no thank you. I'm sure this is not a foolproof method by any means, but I've been fortunate not to have been part of any bad deals so far. In fact, I've made many friends on Lost Dogs (you know who you are :wave: :wave: )

    Glad that he says he's sending you the pick back, but means nothing until the pick is in your hands. Don't forget to remind him to mail WITH TRACKING and send you tracking number as soon as he sends.

    Could not give a rat's ass about the Emek.

    He's an opportunist looking to take advantage where he can.

    Check out this thread. Apart from the OP calling him out, there are 3/4 different people calling him out in the same thread, for nefarious underhanded nasty shit.
    The guy is beneath comment. He doesn't deserve our energy but its necessary in order to protect others from falling for it.

    Well, he says he shipped over ten days ago now, with tracking. In that time I've received tracked items from much further afield than him. I'm gonna give him til Wednesday next, just so I'm completely sure. Then if it doesn't show, I'll make another thread calling him out on expressobeans(ill be the fifth or sixth person there to have done this, think its four people here he's screwed, or tried to.).
    It's almost worth making the loss at this point, just so others are aware and song deal with him.
    It's crud like this that ruins the whole experience and trust we all work upon.
    Wish you could see the PMs he sent me over on EB. I shouldn't laugh, he's clearly either a little slow on the uptake, or playing that part to take advantage. But having seen multiple people have the same difficulty, I'm not buying it at all.

    Ill update either way. Even if it arrives I suggest you all avoid any offers of trade or sale from him.
    We'll see what happens.
