Fun read... I missed this whole thread. And yeah, I recognized those ridiculous rims right away! Old-school shenanigans back at it!

Okay so I just did my research. Banned from yaris world previously, banned from a couple other forums. Heres his pic from a car audio forum if anyone cares

PETERPOOP · 03-17-2009, 08:44 PM

Definately a face of a criminal. ;)

Good luck, the track record is not clean, but I hope for once he comes through

cali yaris · 03-21-2009, 12:49 PM

I hope so too -- kind of interesting that he hasn't posted after being called out

I really hope its because he is banned. I'm shaking my finger at the mods if he's not.

ChinoCharles · 03-21-2009, 03:37 PM

He isn't banned. Save the tough talk dude.

Shaking my finger is tough?? I better go tell my grandma to stop picking fights with everyone.

The funny thing is, YOUR posts were the basis for my post. You've confirmed that spkrman and crankyelbow are the same person. So why are your feelings on banning him so completely different from this post(#4)? - http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6116

I myself keep jumping on and off this thread.

I see two things happening, maybe one is wrong, maybe both are wrong.

The person was sent a check for the turbo kit, and now everything plays the waiting game.

At the same time, a lot of talk and arguments are clouding up this thread, and I dont see the reason why? Honestly I would start another thread just on this guy selling the kit, if its really that important, and leave this thread to what it was made for, because it really is not fun to hear all this fighting.

cali yaris · 03-22-2009, 02:11 AM

I usually agree, but because of who it is (a banned member), I'm just entertained by the whole thing. Kind of like admitting you're hooked on American Idol or something.

Hoping for the best outcome, of course.

I appreciate that members try to protect each other here by making sure full disclosure is made. I will point out that the seller said nothing of his former history on this forum, so it was fair for someone to state it for prospective buyers.

tropicalsuckerpunch · 03-22-2009, 02:25 AM

After looking at his previous posts under his previous username, I'd say nobody buy ANYTHING from this douche.

Jeez, sorry I got under your skin! I was kidding...

Why is my opinion different? 1, that was two years ago, and 2, its a good opportunity for one of our members to get a turbo kit. Now, if I would have known from the beginning that he was looking for a ship and remote pay type thing, I would have banned him again. That wasn't the premise this started on though. Oh well... cross your fingers.

Sabretooth · 03-23-2009, 02:27 AM

Worst case situation, just like last time...
Check get cancelled do to fraud and the bank goes after him if its cashed.

Actually the worst case for ME happened, well, almost :)

I got a bad check... VERY happy that I waited for that thing to clear before shipping...

Worst case would be shipping a turbo for free... now I'm just in the negative because I assumed all was well... bad but not worst case.

On that note I haven't been able to get back in touch with the buyer to straighten things out - the check went sour monday and I got a message tuesday or wednesday asking if it had shipped yet... I'll assume no foul play here but I did hear from the bank that a stop payment was the reason for the check going bad - not lack of funds...

I'll leave this post (although I have already sent pm's, texts, calls...) as the last FYI to the buyer that things have went south...

And the first FYI to those who were interested to please re-apply for this great deal - I would like to get my bank account bank into the positive asap :)

I squared away my past issues and intend to follow through with this deal as smoothly as any - but I *will not* accept anything but cash or a money order this time around. NO paypal, NO checks, and I will not entertain any offers of either.

And again, the best way to reach me is by phone - 7736774961. I don't have ready net access (right now I'm at the library).

I found someone to take over my payments, I want this deal hammered out ASAP so I can throw on the stock parts/new pads/new windshield and eliminate one large source of debt from my life :)
