Default Beware of seller( speed_racerdude) [RESOLVED]

Just wanted everyone to watch out for this seller. Was selling electric H/lamp kit. I purchased the item thru PayPal as request on Friday June 28th. I have since sent several PM requesting shipping info to track. This guy send a blank page attachment and state something wrong at my end. I even asked him not to send an attachment but to type the info in the PM and as of today he still sends the blank page. I also found that he has another member on this That he sold the same kit to him. After PM him I find that he's having the same concern... Not sure if I will ever recoup my $550. form him.
So please watch out for this Guy

You didn't do friends and family Paypal did you? If not file with Paypal and you'll get your money back.

Never, ever use family & friends for anything other than family and friends. Too bad you had to learn the hard way.

I am sick and tired of this, I have sent you numerous messages over and over again every time you reply and you STILL keep saying you haven't got anything. Here is the last one that I sent yet again yesterday right after you asked.

Tracking shows it in Atlanta, GA. If the receiver is in SD as indicated; guessing pony express is going to have to put a whipping on those horses to get it there by tomorrow.

It appears this item has been delivered today.

Please acknowledge this has been received as well as the tracking information provided that you had been asking for.

We do not generally delete threads in this section. We allow both sides to have their say, sometimes a mod gets involved to help that process along. But members have the right to see what the dispute was and how it was resolved. In this case, the OPs apology speaks to his desire to do the right thing.

I do think the OPs apology belongs in this thread rather than in C3 Gen, so I will cut and paste that post here unless there is some disagreement by the OP. I’ll close the thread at that point, but not delete it.

Copy of the OPs statement:

I have to apologize to speed_racerdude for my handling of this sales transaction. After several PM request for the shipping info which I was unable to open/read his attachments.I felt that I was being taken advantage of and in my anger posted wrongly about this sale.The item that I purchase did arrived late Wed afternoon .
I once again apologize to Speed_racerdude and any other forum members regarding my post, and if you fell that I should leave this site I fully understand.
John
