Unfortuantely...I dunno but in the NE section someone seems to be saying the whole "accident" is totally untrue...I dunno this situation is weird, phucked up and just plain stupid.
I just don't understand people dicking people over. It ruins your rep and you'll never be trusted ever again is it really worth it?
I hope everyone gets their stuff. Brian man the F up bro....grow a sack and man up to what you put yourself and everyone into.

Guess I'll give the story of my transaction with him....
After a few PMs, we came to a deal on his stock rims. I didnt want the tires as they were already worn. He gave me a shipping quote and told me he had the tires removed and they were boxed and ready for shipment, so I sent him payment through PayPal.
A week later I had not heard from him so I filed a dispute through PayPal. A couple days later I got a response from him saying they shipped with FedEx and he would give me a tracking number soon. After a few days of no shipping info, I continued to email him and he once again told me they shipped yesterday (at least a week after he had already told me they had shipped) and he would get the tracking #.
After several days of calling FedEx to see if anything was shipping to me I was continuously told I had no packages coming my way. Finally I got an email from him saying they were at UPS and he had dropped them off that day. He told me they wanted $230 to ship them even though his earlier quote was less than half that. He said they were holding them because he didnt want to pay that much to ship them so I said I want a refund, keep your damn wheels. I get another e-mail telling me they shipped them against his wishes and he wanted me to send him money. Come to find out, he didnt take the tires off, which is why the shipping was so damn high.
I ended up getting them about a month after I paid for them. Since they were in good enough condition and I could get a few miles off the tires I told him I would give him the TPS later as I have no use for them. Yeah I could make money off them and most of you will think I am a moron for not, but I have my reasons.

What? that is crazy no wonder shipping was so expensive. it wouldve been cheaper to have the tires removed then have the wheels shipped rather than shipping the wheels w/the tires mounted, lol. What a duuu duuu duu Well I'm glad to hear you got the wheels at least. i say screw it and sell the TPMS...
is this true? How do you know? Please explain....I'm sure pleanty of angry people would like to know the tru th if that is the case....

i'm sure if the mods do an IP check of this person saying it is lies we will find out it was someone who already has an account and got burned by him. if it really is a lie then that is really, really messed up.

^^ Yeah i have heard (just recently) the "accident" was all a hoax as well. I didnt put too much validity into it at first because i am one to want sufficient evidence to support such an accusation. Now that i think about it, there ARE anomolies with the whole story that dont quite add up, but, whatever this guys rep it squashed beyond repair as it is. Now it is just a matter of doing the right thing and getting the people their parts.
If sufficient evidence IS presented or it is apparent that this accusation is true......wow....talk about F%#$ed up.

Well, i guess this explains why his "girl" never returned my email message asking what hospital Brian was in. Nor did she or he say anything about the injuries incurred. You would think they would be substantial the way she made the accident sound, as well as his supposedly being in hospital for around 2 weeks. As well as only a few days after "getting out" he is talking about attending local meets? All of those questions remained in back of my mind from the jump but seemed insensitive at the time...........yes, i CAN be sensitive

I would like to think that he actually was in an accident just because I always try to think the best of people until they prove otherwise. However he hasn't been contacting me about a sale that I sent him money for about a month ago. So I can't comment for or against him. However I did recieve a PM telling me about him being a complete liar and scam artist from a third party. I don't trust him and I won't until I get the part that I paid him for.

why does it take a month?.....when i sell a part its in the hands of a buyer in 10 days or less in the continental US.....and if it isnt then i always keep in constant contact with the individual.......there is no excuse for that type of behavior and if this is all true then i dont know what to say........

I knew a guy once who behaved just like this. Ended up having severe bipolar depression. One minute everything was fine (ie. "it's in the mail!" or "Ill do it first thing tomorrow!") and the next minute he was absolutely useless and depressed and wouldn't leave the couch for 2-3 days at a time, and had to drop out of college because of it.
From a regular point of view, agreed, this behavior is just not acceptable. But at the same time, we just don't know the whole story.
