Rcsrracing15 - deal gone bad

I sold my morimoto DIY retrofit kit along with 2 headlights plus one I threw in for free for parts because I noticed some damage I previously hadn't before I was packing everything up to ship it to RCSRRACING15.

It was to be a trade + cash on his end, which he did send the cash ($200).

After he received the lights he informed me that his friend who is also apparently in the cobalt scene explained to him that SSC Springs did not mean "Stock S/C" springs and that he would pay the rest of the asking price plus shipping cost for me to send him those lights (roughly $150; not counting the $20 between the box and a giant roll of bubble wrap I bought at walmart).

He told me that on August 21st. It is now September 6th, and I haven't been able to get a response from him since the 23rd.

If anyone knows him please tell him to get ahold of me. I do understand things come up and whatnot, but this is bad business.

Still waiting. I haven't been able to get ahold of you via text since August 23. I understand mistakes but the deal was made on August 1st, and I still haven't received payment to cover the cost of the springs you didn't actually have. I will modify this when I receive the payment we agreed upon.

Still waiting on those ssc springs bud. If something happened text me.

You might want to edit out the email and addresses you left.

But I don't really understand what happened

What it boils down to is that it was a trade plus cash.

He couldn't produce the trade after I sent him the lights.

He told me that he'd pay the difference.

That was August 21st, It is now September 6th.

And I haven't been able to get ahold of him since the 23rd.

I never received any springs AT ALL. But that's what he told me, that he thought SSC meant stock supercharged springs.

The guy is transitioning out of the military man. He lives in one state waiting to get out and his wife is living in another. There's a very likely possibility that something happened and he has been busy (that's military life for ya) so give him a little bit of time. I've met him personally and he seems like a stand up guy.

I hope that's all that it is. In which case I will apologize immediately to him and thank him for serving. But its just a really sketchy deal when you go weeks without hearing from someone.

Has anyone heard from him or seen him?

I know he may be busy but that is no reason to not even answer text messages.
Does anyone have him on FB, MS or twitter? His last login on here was on the 24th.


ALSO: If so many people have had problems with this guy, why doesn't anyone leave a negative iTrader rating?

@Get wicked. Im honestly not ignoring you. Im hella tight on money. Im trying to sell **** like my 3rd gen headlights on facebook and my springs and a zzp catted downpipe so i can pay ya back. I apoligize if you took it as me screwing you over. Im not like that. Im working this issue so please bear with me alittle longer. Text me

@nwss. So i stole your lights what about the rims i bought that just so happened to disappear out of alexs garage when you left. I swapped yellow bulbs cause your car was wrecked i even replaced the bulbs with my stock bulbs. you also sold me a cracked zzp header so i had to buy a new setup.

Your the one who is sketch man. I have a current situation that makes me look bad but im fixing it. You on the other hand, your a poser friend who stabs you in the back first chance you get. And laughs while doing it then runs off to montana.
