Just so you know this guy up an vanished after a bunch of us paid for things from him so i dont think you should buy anything from him untill the rest of us figure out what happened to this guy and our money..

It's been 15 days since i sent this guy payment for a Binaltech Silverstreak.. More then enough time to reply to all the messages and emails i have sent to him .. I just went and filed a report with Paypal.. I suggest that those of you that didnt receive your items from him do the same so that paypal can see im not the only one that seems to have been ripped off by him..

I wouldnt post that pic, as far as i know Admin will ban you for posting someones personal info in the forum.. If we need to get in touch with this guy, paypal will give us his info as well as phone numbers to his local police department if we would like to press theft charges on him , i have done this once before when someone from ebay didnt honor there auction sale.. So i don't know if Lordstarscream here knows that or not but yes we all can press Theft Charges against him with his local police department.. So if you are reading this and i'm sure you are , just send us our stuff and make us all happy ..

Make sure you guys file reports with Paypal.

Who wants to start a user feedback thread? How does something like that work on other sites?

News Credits: 2 · by **PrimulArchangel** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 12:04 am

This is the link to TFW2005 feedback thread
http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/forumdisplay.php?f=317

How it works is , a member can not start or leave feedback for him or herself .. It must be started by someone that either bought or traded with that person..

When someone starts a feedback thread for someone they just put the members forum name into the subject box and then leave there feedback message in the message area.. Then when the next person wants to leave feedback for that person they just do a search for the members name in the feedback thread. Once they find the person they just have to respond to the thread with there feedback and so on .one thread per person, you dont keep starting new threads for the same person .
Hope im not confusing ya lol , im a bit tired right now lol.. If you head over to TFW2005 with the link i put up top you can read there rules for the feedback thread and it gives a rundown on how it works.. They even have a deadbeat list for those members that have ripped people off...

This is my feedback thread that was started for me over there , so you can see how it works out.. http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthrea ... larchangel

I think it would be a pretty simple thing to set up and could save some people from getting ripped off in the future.. Hope that helps

The Feedback forum seems like a pretty good idea. Adding a User Rating to the each user's info page might be problematic, and making sure there weren't abuse issues would be another thing, too. I'm not sure how the site set-up works, but I would imagine setting up a new forum would be a lot easier than setting up a whole feedback interface in user profiles.

I wouldn't say REQUIRING auction site feedback was a good idea, but it could be highly recommended for sales or trades.

Yeah the feedback forum on TFW2005 has helped me out big time with sales and trades with members.. I offer up both my ebay feedback and my forum feedback to anyone that buys or trades from me.. But its nice to have feedback for the site you are a memeber of like here on seibertron..
And if you have a problem with someone lying and just leaving negative feedback to be an idiot and they never bought anything from you, you could just get in touch with a MOD and ask them to remove that post.. The one over on TFW for me has never been a problem with people leaving fake feedback...
A thread here on seibertron would work out nicely to get rid of people like this lordstarscream68 deadbeat.. I hope that guy enjoyed spending my whole 28$, Its people like him that make it hard for honest sellers and traders...

anyone hear anything yet ?Paypal told me that he has till the 2nd to reply to my claim , if he dont then it will be found in my favor and i guess my money will be refunded to me.. So if you havent filed a report yet on this guy ripping you off, you should do it as soon as possible .. I'll let you all know if paypal gives me my money back or not..

Paypal sent me an email siding in my favor, but no money back. What a douche

News Credits: 2 · by **GreenLantern of Cybertron** » Tue Jul 10, 2007 1:51 pm

Ill make paypal to give my money back whether they like it or not.

I ordered an alt Ravage and got a reply saying it had shipped. So far the guy I was getting it shipped to hasn't received it. Seemed pretty honest to me so I don't think we should jump to conclusions

Regards

*sigh* what do we do now? I lost $82...

by **icanfly** » Sun Jul 15, 2007 2:37 am

If anyone has any ideas how to either get our stuff or our money, or even just an answer, please let me know

This guy is a scam, if you sent him money then you are not gonna see anything, only reason he answered you was because you messaged him about buying a toy.. once he gets the money he will say it shipped and then you dont hear from him ever again.. Im messaging Admin to remove this thread before someone else gets ripped off....

by **Homer** » Sun Jul 15, 2007 8:06 pm

Wow, I feel for you guys. I assure you there are many more good, honest sellers on this site than not.

For what it is worth, one of the walmarts in town still has Alts Skids, Ricochet, Rumble, and Ravage. If you like, just pm me and I would be more than happy to pick one or more up for you for cost and shipping.

Just let me know guys.

News Credits: 2 · by **PrimulArchangel** » Sun Jul 15, 2007 8:10 pm

how much do they sell for in the store ? I been thinking about getting the ravage and rumble just to help complete the Alts line... I may even pick up another skinds to do a repaint and make him Ironhide... Let me know what the prices may be and ill see if i can do it or not

thanks man

-Curt

They sell for $19.99 each, and if I recall from when I shipped some to other members, I think they are somewhere in the ballpark of $6 shipping through USPS Priority.

Let me know, I'd be more than happy to snag them for ya.
