Default VTStom.......scammed!

about 3 mounths ago sent cheque for btb system. he txt me saying it be sent out when cleared, fair enough. txt him few times and he saying he guna send it. ended up waiting a munth but got in in the end.

buy this time i send a deposit for a ecu. wos around start off november.he then said he would knock a bit off for me as waiting for the btb. by this time i got the btb so i wos thinking he wos genuine and talking to couple lads on here they said he woz a sound lad.

so i sent the rest off the muney to pay the ecu on the 5th december, he said it be sent out rite away to me...once cheque cleared. no probs to me. i txt him the 18th asking if it on its way and he txt saying he completly forgot to send it and the ecu bin sat on his wardrobe. again this piss me off and i wait. to make it worse ave txt him last 5 days asking if it been sent and wots happening with it. i have had no replys to these txts. nothing.

am so close in having all the parts i need so kant afford to not get these parts in the end.

courier services state when buying their services how long things should take to deliver, ive sent stuff ive sold on here and havent ever seen why people fuck around or find it so hard to deal with postage, they come to your door and pick up the parcels ffs, a little lesson for you to be learnt here tho bud paypal exists for a reason and always pay the charges its worth it to cover your back
