Wall of Shame: Post Info on Scammers, Thieves, and Unsettled Transactions

I don’t know what’s going on but I fully paid for a stick from a guy on these forums and he is ignoring emails, PM’s and even paypal dispute emails. I tried to be extremely understanding and fair to this guy but I get nothing. I fully paid for a stick on August 3rd and I have not heard from him since 8/4/2009 in a PM that said he was going to change the art for the stick I bought. Don’t know what else I can do. I guess I’ll wait a little longer. No more sticks for me after this. Too frustrating =(

You should mention his name so we know who your talking about and nobody else buys from him. Unless his names Guy then I apologize.

Not just yet because I want to give him the benefit of the doubt incase he had some horrible event happen in his life (God forbid). It has been ridiculously long to not get at least ONE update or reply. I’ll give him another week. If he doesn’t communicate then I think one month of non-communication is enough to warrant a spot on this “wall”.

I’ve seen this alot on threads where the buyer backs off or gets hesitant to pursue their rightful purchase because they assume or believe the seller might have issue or more important things requiring their attention. I don’t get that at all. If they don’t have time to build the stick any longer then they should refund the money but the majority of the time they don’t even that. His personal has nothing to do with responsibilities to others. DJ Matrix had people believing every little excuse that he posted to buy him more play time with other people’s money.

Why don’t you try assuming he’s a jerk that doesn’t want to finish what he started or just wants to steal? That seems to be the case in alot of these scenarios.

=( infoseeker

I purchased a stick from this “infoseeker” guy on August 1st. I fully paid for his dual mod custom. It’s a sweet looking stick. I received a PM from him on August 4th stating that he was going to switch out the art for me before he sent the stick. That was the last I heard from him. I sent countless emails and PM’s to him and paypal has sent him emails. He has answered none. Here we are, August 31 st and I’m still fighting with paypal to try and get my money back from this guy. This has caused me too much stress and problems. I have had many bad transactions but this one is just a blatant:nono:

file a claim

Yeah, I did. I have to wait till they investigate. I should hear something by tomorrow.

go to your bank and talk to them about it. they will help you out and can get your money back. dont wait any longer.

yes. banks>>>>paypal at refunds

infoseeker= not cool!

I got a partial refund from Paypal but ultimately I was screwed out of 75 dollars! Now I gotta fight with my credit card company to get those 75 bucks. Dealing with credit card companies can be a nightmare. I wish I never got involved in this addictive stick crap in the first place. Too many headaches and stress from all of it.

Saving this spot for Mr. khmerdroopy

Just to save this spot for khmerdroopy, who looks like he wants to take everyones money, and make a lot excuses to buy some time, im tired of wait and tired of more lies, guy took my money, took my Egret II panel, and dont reply to PMs, Emails, the dude is just terrible, he goes for weeks, yeah 2 to 3 weeks without updating his thread, and when he does update, he just tells everybody that he is sorry, and he is having a lot of problems, his partner quit on him, and stuff like that.
this was the date he received my original panel, 06-01-2009, but i ordered the panels before that date, he promised me 2 to 3 day to make the panels, and then the days that the USPS takes to deliver my panels, but he took 2 month to complete my panels, (he said he completed them, but i never got any pics of the finished panels), and them he said he shipped them on, 8-4-2009 and todays date is 9-4-2009, and i still dont have my panels, so, i think thats enough reson for khmerdroopy to be in the wall of shame, for being a liar, and a possible scammer.

so, if you want to save yourself from a headache please stay away from this guy, DONT buy from him. you’ve been warned.

for more info go to his thread:

if any of you guys, are in the same situation as me, please post here, the truth needs to be told, to save other people from falling in the same trap we did.

i feel better now, i needed to get that shit out of my system. if khmerdroopy thinks that he is not a scammer, he can come here and prove me wrong, or even post here, ill gladly take him down from the wall of shame.

P.S. Im still waiting for my stuff.

I’m just posting in here to cover myself. I think I managed to inform everyone I sold items but but i’ll just put it here in case:
I was informed of recent troubles with canadian shipping, customs taking longer than usual. They said it might take up to a month sometimes depending on the recipient address. If you still haven’t received your stuff let me know but things should all come in due time.

LOL, thanks for the support man. I don’t have any image editing software on my shitty PC, but when I go to a friend’s house I will take some screen captures that prove all the dates I said are 100% factual.

Just to update: It is now SEPTEMBER 14th, and Nareg has not contacted me to give me my money back. IMPORTANT: Please DO NOT order from Nareg at gamingnow.com. He is a THIEF and will take advantage of any honest person if he can get away with it. He has had MONTHS to give me a simple refund (I was even NICE ENOUGH to send back the WRONG ITEMS he shipped to me, I am out the cost of the original items I ordered, PLUS the return shipping for sending the wrong items back to him!!

Nareg, you are a true fucking lying dirtbag. I have also heard of you ripping off someone else who is a friend of a friend, but that person is rich and doesn’t post on SRK so he never reported you and just bought the wrong shit you sent to him.

You sent me stuff worth WAY more than I paid for, and I, being a nice guy, informed you I got the wrong items, shipped it back to you at MY OWN COST as soon as I could afford to, and you have left me high and dry for MONTHS, I ordered that shit BEFORE FUCKING EVO!

Because of you being a lying dirtbag, I didn’t have a functional 360 stick to enjoy evo (You promised me I would have my PCB befoer evo), and now I am out money and also the time spent waiting in line at the post office. You truly are a cutthroat who takes advantage of honest people.

Expect a complaint to the postal service and the better business bureau shortly, and whatever service you use to collect credit cards from, fucking dirtbag. You are lucky I live in Washington or I would show up at your fucken door.

AGAIN, do NOT buy from Gamingnow.com. If he fucks up your EXPENSIVE ORDER because he uses Cletus the slack jawed yokel as his “packer”, you are FUCKED, and do NOT expect a refund.

im gonna have to call out Knubble. He sold me a ps3 and it’s broken. the hdmi port does not work. i own another ps3 that i’ve used and set up the hdmi just fine.

on the side of the ps3 there is a warranty sticker from a 3rd party. someone fixed this ps3 and he didnt tell me about even after i asked what the history of the ps3 was. the bottom is missing 2 rubber studs so when you lay it on the tile floor it makes a grinding noise even at the slightest move. i would’ve been ok with the minor cosmetic stuff but the hdmi is not something i will take lightly.

last time he logged on was 9/6 which was the date he shipped out the ps3. he hasnt responded to my pms since then. i will be going straight to the bank in the next 2 days to dispute this and get my money back. i wish i could be nicer but 200 dollars is alot of money.

It’s kind of like on ebay when people have stuff listed as mint condition and you can see scratches all over it in their photos.

You can’t even have sony repair that thing now that some company has worked on it.

edit: getting colder

WTF is taking this dude so long? Go to your bank and due a charge back ASAP!!
You have 90 days to do it!! Plus show them the proof of your emails, this site and your Paypal account!! This is ridiculous!!

What is taking him so long is that he is a thief and a fucking asshole. I’ll call my credit card company on friday and see if it’s not too late.

THANKS VALARIS!

game came in the mail this morning!! I LOVE YOU.

Edit-

Sorry to disrespect the forum. I did not read the ToS. However. I’m extremely dissapointed.
