Re: Another Forum Member Ripped Me Off!

Now that the issue has been addressed and both parties have posted, I am going to go ahead and lock it. Without chiming in on one side or the other, I hope other forum members can learn from this thread.

last i checked, most if not every scoundrel i've come across or read about in this hobby have been dudes.

Aileen Wuornos sold me an 80s 'gamer' that was really just game issued.

Re: Another Forum Member Ripped Me Off!

One more problem - She didn't communicate with you but she did communicate (email) with you? Hmm...

Wow Preston your on her team! Congrats for you! I replied to every email, see had my cell phone number (did not).... Email me personally from here forward if you have any questions. Thanks Preston!

As for your childish threading emails I will not be doing business with another lady again.

I'm glad things worked out. As for the above quote. You do know about the whole procreation thing, right?

Re: Another Forum Member Ripped Me Off!

Unfortunately because you've been shady with multiple people, nobody believes 1. that you didn't plan to rip her off and 2. that she actually sent "nasty" emails. Your word right now is like Chris Johnson for the majority of this football season - worthless.

Not being mean, just being honest. Thanks for the excuse.

..... I am pretty sure I have NEVER RIPPED anyone off!!! So thanks for knowing Carah! Good luck buddy

Re: Another Forum Member Ripped Me Off!

She had every way of communicating with me and did not. I kept her informed with my current holiday schedule. Glad you like Carah, Justin! From the nasty emails I would assume she is a real keeper. As for any cracks against female collectors I have just had bad moments with them.

To be clear, why wasn't the jersey mailed before the holidays?

Re: Another Forum Member Ripped Me Off!

LOL... I have offered this lady her money back, or I can send the jersey when I get back in town from the holidays. This is advice for all GUU members never do business with a egotistical crazy b$t@h lady!!! I am waiting on her reply. Friends, people I have done business with... Please make it rain on this post!

[QUOTE=Preston;275778]I can personally vouch for BrewCrew being a FIRST CLASS PERSON - if I had a gun to my head and had to pick one of the two as being a "liar", based on both parties' reputations (from what I've read and know), I'd pick mlbforeverhomer without hesitation.

I don't think she would have called you out unless you continued to give empty promises and tried to take advantage of a FEMALE collector. That's pretty low.

Re: Another Forum Member Ripped Me Off!

BrewCrew,

Glad to hear that in the end you received your refund. Based on MLBForever's reputation, you are lucky.

This is one example of why I typically don't use PayPal. I go oldschool and pay with US Postal money order. It can be tracked to when it's delivered, who signs for it and who cashes. In the event of fraud you can get the Post Master (of your city) involved, bank manager (if cashed at a bank) and bank/post office surveillance.

Unfortunately I have had issues with sellers trying to rip me off in the past. Fortunately I had all my ducks in a row and was able to come out on top. You may consider using money orders in the future. It may be a hassle for the other party, but you have better protection. More options legally. PayPal is iffy with who they will side with.

Re: Another Forum Member Ripped Me Off!

Online shopping has pampered her way to much with instant tracking gratification.

Sellers just need to be honest about the shipping time frame. Don't say you'll get the item out right away if you are not going to!

I totally understand about not being able to not get to the post office right away, but don't lie saying the item was shipped or will be shipped on a specific day if it is not true.

Re: Another Forum Member Ripped Me Off!

Clayton, I am not going to get into a forum fight with you over this. I sent you multiple emails asking for a refund, and received no response. Without a response from you I felt I had no other recourse than to take it to the forum. I would point out to you that the instant I took this to the forum, I DID receive a response and a refund from you. Very interesting timing.

Again, my reputation speaks for itself. I will not let you disparage it or engage in petty name-calling.

I am not arging with you in fact I am stating facts. As for your childish threading emails I will not be doing business with another lady again. I even gave you my phone number to call me at anytime if you have any questions....Thank you for teaching me this lesson. Happy holidays!
