Dear FBBO-Member,

I found a part in the „parts for sale“ area and contacted the member and we had a deal. I transferred the money but he never sent it out. Just hearing excuses since one year but now I got no replies from him anymore.
Is there an admin to forward the case and name of the member?

Thanks in advance for your help!!

...and naming the member and/or thread.
 
That's a real dog act to do that to someone, especially if they are overseas.
More info required for sure, but maybe don't name them just yet, give them a chance to read this thread once you explained your side and reply with their version of events?

According to the original poster it's been a year.... Out the trash....
 
I read that, but I thought it would be fair to see some correspondence between them first about what the part is and why it hasn't been sent. Money sent but not received, confusion over address and subsequent postage costs, illness etc.
I've read enough online reviews and responses from the business to know that there's often more to the story than the complainant suggests.

In answer to your question, no. Neither the Admin. nor the Moderators hold any liability in the the deals that are made between members in this forum. They try to help where they can, but ultimately the burden rests with the members involved.

That being said, I'm very sorry to hear that this happened, I hate when rat bastards screw people over. Hopefully, you'll get this straightened out, but I wouldn't count on it if it's been over a year without reconciliation.

I am sorry, but the Site Admin's and Moderator are unable to assist with deals that go bad - that is between members here.

However, if you provide details here that substantiate your claim, we allow you to publish your case - facts not fiction and get the word out to hopefully prevent someone else being ripped off like this.

Try not to post personal details like the seller's address and phone number - UserID will suffice for now.

There may be a history with this guy, and conversely, he might be in hospital injured - it has happened before. A witch-hunt with a genuine excuse is not good either.
 
That’s why I’ll only do ftf transactions unless I’ve dealt with a long time forum member. Good luck to the op.
 
Question #1: Why did you wait a year before finally bringing this forward?

I've been pretty fortunate so far when buying from members here. All have been pretty honest, and delivered as expected.
 
WE all need a name...

his screen name/avatar, the real sir name if need be

this stuff needs to be public, for everyones protection
or for information/warning if nothing else

if the person has died or hospitised, then it will show up sooner than later

been 'a year' later
I'd have posted something a long time ago
OP he's been more that reasonable waiting

@Jan_Hamburg not to derail the intent of your thread, but what part were you after? Maybe someone here has it or knows where one is to at least get that going for you. Hopefully by reaching out you'll get this resolved. Best of luck!

Haha there’s always that guy that says you should only buy face to face.

They say a cat that gets burned on a hot stove will avoid ALL stoves in the future.
 
Sad but it does happen, thats why people need to leave feedback on members. Post his name,I would in a heart beat.
 
Without a name we can't even look the guy up. May be he was a Spammer/scammer and his account was deleted.
