Bad Guy: 06carbon8--Brian Wolfgang
Brian (06carbon8) still has a chance to rectify this situation and hopefully this thread will facilitate the right thing being done here. I will try to give short version as this is a story that needs explaining.
2/23/08--I sent Brian $ via Paypal for a front bumper. Part of the deal was he did not have to package the bumper in any way or ship it, all he was to do is drop it off at a nearby freight company (i work for this company and we have a hub near him) and they would take care of it.
Just a day or two after i sent the $ Brian was on the job (part of emergency response team) and was injured due to a car driving up and striking the one from which he was in at the time helping someone else, there is a thread dedicated to explaining the accident and can be found in search.
**EDIT: It has recently been proven that the WHOLE "accident" was a LIE fabricated by this guy in order to decieve, it is proven later on in this thread.**
It wasnt until a few days later that his fiance posted a thread here telling of this accident and that Brian was admitted to hospital (first i was made aware as well). So understandably the sending of the bumper was put off. During the following week she told me that she would go ahead and drop the bumper off due to Brian being in hospital. From the jump i was sympathetic and gave the option of just refunding the $ but she insisted he wanted to honor the agreement. She failed to drop it off on both of the occasions she said she was going to (over time frame of about week and a half). She didnt so much as call me or even email me with an explanation. Even at this point i remained sympathetic for obvious reasons and didnt press the issue. More days passed with no communication/resolution. Brian was out of the hospital i believe on 3/12 (give or take). He never said nor had i heard that he had any serious injuries rendering him unable to walk, talk, see or use his arms by this point. On like 3/14 or 1/15 Brian sends me a text message to my phone saying he would drop off the bumper by Monday (17th) or refund my $. No phone call or anything to discuss it with me, just a simple message stating monday or my $ back. I tried calling him but he didint answer. I text him back and inform him that i'd rather have the bumper and i would call ahead to make sure they were ready at the hub when he got there with the bumper. Monday comes, he doesnt send it. No call/email explaining why. A day later he sends me a PM saying he will "positively" drop it off the upcoming Friday (22nd). Friday comes, he doesnt drop it off. I tried calling him the thurs. night prior (21st), nothing, tried callin him the Friday of, nothing. So, from 2/21 to 2/25 he ignores all my calls/texts/emails/PM's until i finally filed a dispute with paypal. He THEN replies to a pm inquiring about why i filed a dispute and then he says he will pay my money back AND send the bumper. He doesnt say anything about when. Shortly thereafter he sends me another PM telling me he is broke, has no car (his is in shop gettin engine installed) and no cell phone (says him and his girl consolidated to one phone to cut costs and she has it during the day). Mind you, this is the first time he has come clean about any of his reasoning for ignoring me, not refunding my money and not droppin off the bumper. We then set up yet another time (this time on Saturday where he for sure can use his girl's car) for him to drop the bumper off. I try calling him Friday night before to verify everything and he doesnt answer. I then get a text message from him saying he will send it. I text him back telling him to just to call me so we can go over it quickly and he texts me saying he cant (although he can text just fine) and to just tell him what time to drop it off. The time of 10am is agreed upon. The hub there closes at noon. Well, i am busy on Saturday afternoon and at this point i believe this guy will finally send it. This morning i call the hub over there, "he never dropped it off". I couldnt believe it. He didnt so much as write me a text or PM letting me know that he once again he failed, no explanation, not even an excuse. To this very minute on 3/31 Brian has avoided my calls/emails/Pm's. This is the VERY short and sweet version. I have all PM's and emails from this ordeal saved and i did not post them here due to length and how embarrasing some would be for Brian. Should i need to, i will furnish them.
In short, i paid good $ for the bumper. The accident happened and i gave up ample time due to that fact. He went ahead and spent my $ for whatever reason, im sure he needed it, but he never sent my bumper. Not once throghout the whole ordeal has he even attempted to call me to work this out. He has ignored me time and time again and broke his word the same. I told him many times in emails that all he has to do is call me to resolve this and he has beglected to do so. I had no choice but to escalate the paypal dispute to a claim and list him as a bag guy. I think he is under impression that if paypal pays out the claim that we will be square and that he will just ignore me until then......i sure hope thats not how he sees it, cuz it will not end there.
Brian, when u read this, just know i gave you more than plenty warning, u know that. You can still make this right. You had no trouble spending my $, so you should honor your end and send the bumper, all u have to do is drop it off. Or, as you have had this choice from the beginning, refund my $ back to me. Please dont drag this out any longer, i understand u have had alot of misfortune in the past couple months, but it doesnt justify this.
