Reply With QuoteWhen people get suckered into buying replicas they thought were the genuine thing, after finding out the truth they try to do the same thing to someone else. Cause if they didn't know they hope the same thing can happen when trying to sell em.
People like this guy seriously piss me off...

not only did he email me and tell me they were real wheels, he also has the same set on ebay advertised as replicas.... Makes me mad too because i really want the wheels, if he even has them
He's damn lucky I didn't buy them off his description or he would have been lawyered up in a heartbeat

yeah but the guy knew he was buying replicas in the first place before he re-sold them... that's just wrong

Agreed. Good job researching the fact that he knew about the replicas before.
You sohuld be abel to get the wheels from ebay for a better deal. Search ebay.de- Angry was able to find a lot of good stuff there...

after further review, it looks like he's covering lies with lies.. check out the thread in the swap meet now.. He claimed his GF bought the wheels hence the mixup but in his PM to me yesterday he told me he bought them last summer and ran them all summer... Kinda hard to do when you buy them on march 6th of last month

OK, so the wankers become tossers and start to rip everyone else off.
Occasionally the dumber ones can get caught out.
Question is, what to do about them... should the sleuths become vigilantes?
Should the tossers be black-listed, let alone prosecuted and punished? That is technically fraud...

it's most definitely fraud, it just didnt get that far because he was found out.... It's a shame, I almost should have bought the wheels and then went after him but whats the point really? Stuff like that is hard to prove and a hassle to deal with, but liars like this guy just really set me off

just post a warning so anyone else will question him before buying stuff, no use banning them cause a search of their name will come up with this thread.
Always buy with either a credit card or US Postal Money orders, you will be covered unfer fraud.
