Hey Armando - if you got scammed by a board member, as a fellow board member, I would kinda want to know who it is so it protects the rest of us. Not sure how mods feel about "outing" someone, but I personally am all for it because it helps keep the integrity of GUU.

Hopefully the other member knows who he or she is and will see this message and make things right before needing to be called out.

Otherwise if the seller will not reply to you or resolve the problem, then I agree to share the name to protect the rest of us. Even after you put the name out there, they can always post their explanation and try to clear their name that way.

Agreed, especially if it's been a "few months" since the transaction as stated... I hate seeing posts from buyers in the past over an item a couple weeks lag on an item, but once you pass a month with nothing showing up, it becomes something different.

Armando -

Just out the $#%^@^* so we can get on with the public ridicule...

Just a thought! If you do not wish to post the member who took you. Maybe post what the item was so those of us who collect those items or that team can be weary if that items happens to come our way.

Thanks!

It is a privilege to post in the Classifieds. It should be obvious that if you take someone's money, you're going to get called out for it.

Communication is the key. Sorry, but there is no excuse for not returning emails once you have accepted someone's money.... Things get lost in the mail, sure... But where is the communication?

Seems to me the Seller threw you under the bus by taking your money !!!

If what you say is true, why not post his/her information?

Just an opinion

You are extending this individual a courtesy that s/he didn't nor hasn't extended to you!

Hi Armando:

You are being too kind to the guy/gal and that person must think that you are a push over. Please protect the hobby by naming the person that is doing this to you. At worse, you have exposed him/her. At best, it will force them to come clean.

At this point you having nothing to lose and would even suggest contacting the police, sheriff to protect any legal actions you have...

Re: Paid and no item !!

I hate to say it but coming on here and saying someone stiffed you for two months and then protecting their name just leads to speculation and concern by others not to buy from people on here suspicious who you are talking about.

Anyone who calls out a seller on here should mention them by name or don't blindly call out all random sellers. That is not fair to the honest ones.
