[colin purewater]

Evening all,

As above the reason I ask I've bought loads of
Stuff of this forum especially over the last few months
And had nothing but a good experience with the sellers
And buyer I've dealt with.  So I have become trusting  ( out of character) 
But one purchase I've made recently I've got a really
Bad gut feeling  that it ain't gona turn up
The seller ain't local to me

So I would be interested if this has happen before?

Many thanks
Colin

[Frankybadboy]

would this be the slx?

[colin purewater]

Mite be frank

I got done with a di vessel I sold a few years back, my own fault, he turned and only had enough cash for a tank I was selling and said he would return for the vessel another time, I stupidly said nah just take it and send a cheque when you can

[stuart mc]

how did you pay colin? might not be to late

[colin purewater]

In to a bank account

I no I can get the name and address of the account holder
No worries but as I said it ain't local mate

[wfp master]

slx  why not buy a brand new one. dodgy add.

[sunshine windies]

That's interesting, have you paid for the SLX?
Cos i have

[Dave Willis]

I think I know what's happened (could be wrong) but I think he's sold it to you and invoiced somebody else by mistake.
I'll have another read on the better forum. Back in a mo.

Yep, he's invoiced a guy in Anglesy so if that's not you it's possible he's got the wrong bloke. The other guy asked about the pole and got a Paypal request for money even though he didn't agree to buy it.

Bit confusing because different user names get used elsewhere. Sorry if I've got it wrong though.

[sunshine windies]

HMM strange !! luckily i insisted he set up a paypal so i can claim it back as i didnt want to do a bank transfer. he set up what seemed like a pretty dodgy paypal address but they said i can claim it back whatever if i dont get it, wonder how many people he's sold this imaginary pole to though?

Colin, what area code is that i'm not going to get stung calling that on my mobile am i?

[sunshine windies]

p.s i'm not the guy in Anglesey if thats what you mean?

[colin purewater]

Nar mate sounds like he's selling a non existent
Pole to as many people as possible..

I thought I was buying it from p1w1 until
I checked Saturday and noticed I'd read it wrong
Then I dawned on me.

[colin purewater]

Sorry mate 07960213304

[Dave Willis]

He's invoiced a guy called Jay so if neither of you are that guy (who only enquired about the pole) then it sounds well dodgy).

[stuart mc]

2 posts both selling equipment for the exact same price with next day del, bit iffy, maybe an honest mistake though

Well, I had an email at 7:46 this evening asking if I still wanted the SLX (assuming it's the same advert)

Interesting.  Might be time to involve the rozzers.

[colin purewater]

What was the email address vin?

[stuart mc]

i am guessing this ad http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/index.php?topic=158407.0

[colin purewater]

Vin do me a favor please and email him back asking how
To pay him and a mobile number and forward the detail on
to me please mate

Cheers
Colin

[stuart mc]

if you are talking about the same ad, report it to moderators before someone else pays for the pole or his other thing for sale, but ask them to keep the written evidence, go to the add and click the report button, sure tosh or someone will know what to do, until it is clarified

[colin purewater]

Already done that mate and took photos of the lot,

Some people ay stu..

[Perfect Windows]

Several emails sent (to you, Colin), possibly including a number.  Good luck.

I'll tell you if I get a reply.

Off to my pit now.

I no mate thought I was buying of p1w1 so didn't give it a thought
Till I read it back. Blind bar steward lol

Hello,
I'm the jay in Anglesey. I asked if he still had it and got a PayPal invoice  for £200.
Since then I've had various emails asking if I wanted it.
I have forwarded all the details to Colin @ pure water this morning.

Cheers Jay

[sunshine windies]

Just spoke to paypal, they said he has closed his account down so they will just sell the debt onto a debt collection agency.....What a chancer!!

[wfp master]

dodgy bassa hope hes banned from here.

[jr windows]

Have u tried his and wife's mobile no?
I have them if you want.

[sunshine windies]

Yes please

admin should have his ip address logged

[sunshine windies]

Cheers  

One of them is answer phone and the other not in use
Dont see the point myself all the hassle it will cause him in the long run with debt collection agencies chasing him just for a few hundred quid or whatever....not for me like  :

[jr windows]

Think about it,
How many wc forums, 5 people buy of a site,
10 forums x 5 x £200 not bad for a weeks work.

[sunshine windies]

But the point is how much of that will he keep (not much i guess) and is it worth the stress / hassle of looking over your shoulder everywhere you go?

I stand by not for me 

[jr windows]

Not for me either, but seem to be a lot at it.

[colin purewater]

admin should have his ip address logged

I've asked for the IP address already but heard nothing
I just want it to pass to the police along with
All the other info I've gave them

hope he dies a horrible lingering death

Here here Ian!

Unfortunately this has all the tell tale signs of
Someone who is just about to emergent..

[Tom White]

Hmmmmm.

Look at this member's back posts....

http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/index.php?action=profile;u=30204

Do you think he is the same person as the one who was selling the SLX?  He has the same IP number.

I haven't looked into it properly, not yet anyway, but you guys know what's going on, so please check it out and report back.

[Tom White]

Actually, I don't think it is!
