Suspected Scammer: GoldSax

[Furio-92]

I paid £40 for a set of mk2 headlights last week. I've sent him at PM at least once a day since then and i have not had a single reply, and i've been checking to see if he has been online daily and he has; however, i bought a bonnet off him a week or two ago, and it come without a hitch :/

[Viper]

Well if you've had something from him before then he's probably not a scammer is he?

[SAM-S44MDS-]

Wrong section ;)

[Furio-92]

Building a rep to look legit? Just think its weird that i've not heard back. Wrote on his profile wall, in his thread and plenty of PM's. He hasnt posted on his thread since i have posted either :/

[Furio-92]

Wrong section ;)

where would it go?

[SAM-S44MDS-]

where would it go?

Suspected scammer section?

[f13sta]

his inbox maybe full so he wouldn't recive you pm's

[Furio-92]

Suspected scammer section?
Which is where?
his inbox maybe full so he wouldn't recive you pm's

It tells you if it is full, and i've also wrote on his profile wall and thread

[shaneio]

he has 10 positive feedback so doubt hes building a rep to scam you £40

+1

Mate have some patients? I'm sure the guy will have a decent explanation for it...

If anything you now will probably have put people off using him with this thread.

Start a paypal dispute if you are that worried about it...

Thats what i thought, however the fact that i've not heard anything back from him doesnt give the best vibe

Can Vouch for this little shit e aint no scammer proly just real busy atm :y: ill text him now askin him to come on forum and sort shit out

[Goldsax]

Cheers bri...i may be a little shit, but im no scammer, like i said to anthony via PM, ive just started my new job and i cant really take the piss to post some lights :P, they have left my hands as of yesterday lunch time, so they are on your way mate, and as for the online thing and not replying, i can get on saxp on my phone, but not access PMs, thats the only reason i have not replied. its all sorted dude dont worry, i kept in good contact with you for the bonnet, and would have done with the lights, just been dead busy :D

Sorry for any confusion

[RustySkull]

Everyone thinks everyone is a scammer now days =/

[iw_laurence]

Only a scammer would say something like that..... lol

[Goldsax]

haha :P

[Paul]

I can vouch for 'this little shit' not being a scammer aswell ;)

[Goldsax]

cheers paul :D x

[e8_pqck]

some people have no patience. all this tells me is dont deal with OP else he'll be publicly flogging you after the slightest hitch. 1 week is nothing to be fair.

[Paul]

Although keep your ratchet spanners away from him! ;)

I don't think it's really the 1 week waiting time, it was the lack of communication where he had PM'd him and seen the guy had been online since but hadnt replied to any PM's

But unknowingly to him the guy couldn't view his PM's so knew nothing about them, just a mix up unfortunately although if i didn't have time to post i would have alerted the buyer to let them know the score

This is what worried me, but i have jumped the gun far too early, have heard back from Goldsax and have understood that he has started a new job and hasnt had the time to post.

[Goldsax]

cheers ant, we have sorted things, and with was just a miss under standing, they are on their way to you as we speak. im not a scammer, just get really busy at time :D. soooo we are all good now :D

Great isn't it? Another case of, 'yeah i'll take your money, but i'm too busy to send your goods'.

I'll guarantee if the buyer hadn't paid after a week the seller would be pissed off.

[Furio-Gazza]

dunno why people have problems, if im selling i expect a payment 1st, soon as payment is made your item will be sent out within a few hours and i give you a tracker number to follow it as well... simple's lol

[Malky]

that's a good way to sell. Unfortunately some dont have that ability, however keeping the buyer informed is all thats needed. I'm too busy, is a fucking piss poor excuse.

Thats in an ideal world, in reality some of us havent got the time to send something hours after payment.

Why you so angry? :hug:

[Malky]

Why you so angry? :hug:

I just get pissed off when I hear the 'I'm too busy' excuse.

Come join me with a banjo round my tree stump. You'll see I'm far from an angry person.

[VTHall]

Simple answer to that is then - dont take the payment.
If you can take a payment off someone in a few minutes, you can get the parcel sorted or get it sent off shortly after.

Because sometimes people pay at odd times/you need to be able to confirm payment.

It's not as cut and dry as some people believe espec as I can understand some people are on shift work. It's unreasonable to expect postage the next day all the time but the seller should notify the buyer of this.

[Furio-92]

This has been sorted now. Has been for days.

[Furio-Gazza]

I think this thread can be locked now mr Ryan :zainy:

im afraid were going to have to agree to disagree on your first comment. If the seller is on shift work, tell the buyer that he will have to wait a few days or hours or whatever untill i can take the payment. If you cant send the goods or sort out the goods at maximum the next day then dont take the payment.

MAXIMUM NEXT DAY stupidist thing i heard. i work 2 jobs starting at 4am and not finishing till 6-7pm sometimes, when i sell stuff i tell buyer i will always post within the week depending on when i can get to post office or when i can get a courior. dont even think most internet companys post maximum next day, as usually takes processing time

[Andy_K]

Plus there are so many messers on here these days that buyers will take payment straight away or probably will never here for the buyer ever again.

Everyone seems to demand next day delivery these days. Sadly, some members have lives outside of sax-p which prevents them posting items straight out. Thats life. If people want goods immediately then perhaps they should go to a shop instead of getting seconf hand parts over the internet?

[MikeYost]

I don't think next day delivery is a must, but communication with the buyer is. As long as you inform them on when you will post it and when they should recieve it BEFORE they pay then there shouldn't be any issues..

[Goldsax]

if you work 8-6 mon-friday...how do you expect to get to the post office which is open 9-5?? Ant had my number, so if he had text me i could have replied, i cant get on my PM's on my phone, and i dont always have access to a computer...i sent him a bonnet the week before with no problems, i took a day off work so i could be in for the couriour...and then they went to the wrong house (not mine or anthonys fault) but non the less i had to have another day off work the next day...we sorted it, he got his goods, no one got hurt, nothing was damaged or wrongly described, id just started my new job, times got crossed over, somtimes things over lap other things...but its sorted now, im far from a scammer lol, i dont have the balls to do it for a start :P, plus im a nice guy :D...thread close?
