When buying parts, use Paypal or go in person!

I know common sense sometimes prevails but guys, don't use chq's, MO's etc unless you know the person or he's a vendor or long time member/poster, its too easy to send the above and they keep it then you either never get your parts or you get crap or broken parts. Sure Paypal has its disadvantages sometimes but 99% of the time, its safer.

Agreed. I've been burned in the past with a MO... I sent the money, never got my stuff, had zero recourse.

I did a basic inquiry about ol-blu from another member who sold parts to him.
He's good at spending other peoples money apparently. He stated the
daughter was in the hospital and I was willing to standby for a while, but with
no reply or updates I figured I'm out of my cash by now.

Your story is why I posted it here but it happens too much. I really hope you get your stuff.

Don't fall for the hospital line. Most hospital have postal office, he can send the check/mo right back.

Do you have sent record? If so, contact the local police department.

This is why I don't like selling online either, my family is fugging disaster prone, and they manage to save them up until I've got time sensitive duties/jobs. :banghead:

I think it's a law of attraction thing, they're like "OMG RW said he isn't available for a couple of days, something is gonna go wrong... "

Thanks Guys.
I have a copy of the endorsed money order and a timeline of events.
I'm just waiting for things to fall into place now.
