Unhappy Rodjonathan = BS ..

Just to give a heads up the guy pm me and told me he would buy some plugs.Held the plugs for him as he would send a check , days go by and i ask him again if he send payment, Again he lies and says yes i did ,long story short he never send it or he would of been all over me asking me were is the check.


Made me lose my time and a sale when other members wanted the item.



The right thing to do was to let me know he no longer wanted the item.
so i can give it to the next club member and not waste my time.




Just wanted member to have a heads up ,If he lied about this simple transaction who knows what else he would lie about.


Cheers

I wouldn't exactly label him "bad guy" completely, in reality you chose to hold the product for someone. He being the customer is not obligated to make the transaction with you, you are the seller and in complete control the entire time.

Now as for the check, yes that sounds fishy, and if he was trying to get you to mail the product prior to you verifying and cashing the check then I agree with the bad guy label.

hey man im here in my defense .. i sent it out by post i have the check copy for you dated and everything idk what happened but i swear i sent it out and ive sold alot of stuff on here and traded stuff too never had a problem. right now im living between 3 houses because of what happened plus im in school and work for my dad so if it did come back i dont even know yet but i will surely check today as i sent it out ... sorry for the inconvenience man but if its that big of a problem just go ahead and sell it as its not that big of a deal ill fork out the extra bucks and get it from fluid or something. again ive traded stuff sold stuff and bought stuff on here never had a problem so i mean you calling me a bad guy is kinda harsh bro

no i never asked him to ship before the check cleared i just asked him to hold it till he got the check.

oh and since i made you loose out on the sale ill send you a money order with delivery confirmation and ill scan it too so you know i sent it i just request you destroy the check when and if you get it coz i dont know where it is ... or send me an alternative coz i dont mind doing paypal right now

no hard feeling on my end either but let me set some stuff straight ... first you claimed i cost you a sale ... if its sold i dont see how i cost you anything (time yes and sorry for that) ... and YES i totally agree with you i should have told you if i didnt want it but i did send the check and i did want the item ... the ONLY reasons i havent inquired as to where it went is
(1) coz it should not get lost but now i will because i need to know where it went
(2) ive been CRAZY busy and like i said ive been living between 3 houses AND now a hotel too with no set schedule as to where ill live on which day which is very hectic so i figured if you didnt get it its probably at the house i put the return address for which leaves another scenario open because im in a habit of using my home address which no longer exists so they keep the mail for that house at the post office and ill have to check there too as i dont remember if i used that or my dads house as the return and with school work and house stuff its been VERY VERY busy so pardon my negligence as i should have checked up on the check but good to hear you made the sale

i say the OP should delete this thread. this should have been sorted out by PM, not posted out here like this. simple miscommunication and no need for this to live in the archives.

I finally sold it last night how long more should i wait ? 3 weeks is enough time unless you shipped it by snail ,last pm i ask you and you said you shipped it.I believed you and did not want to sale it to another person and then your payment arrived.

I understand your point of moving but a simple email telling me to sell it to the next person would of been more then appreciated,that way we dont waste you time or anybodys time.

man some people are sensitive some arent ... my house burning down obviously isnt an excuse to not check up on the check so its all good i admit my fault in not checking on it and its cool if he leaves in on here i dont really care ...

ive sold quite a bit of stuff lately local and shipped so if youll dont mind getting on here and describing your transactions with me to put this guy in his place id appreciate it ...

Whole lot of drama for something trivial. Why is this thread here, I mean no one lost product, no one got robbed out of money, nothing is lost, just a transaction that didn't work out. I would trust rodjonathan in any transaction until proven otherwise. This thread is not proof of anything other than the OP overreacting! Best thing...... delete this thread as it is pointless and the "situation" has been taken care of.
