    Learned a lesson about being to trusting

    I been selling a few items on BBC and other places also, first time I ever just got screwed the wrong way !! I sold three items and shipped with out first getting my money, this is one reply I got from a fellow BBC guy.
    (It looks like it lists a few part numbers but I'm not sure which this actually is. If it's the fmk104 or fmk105, send me your PayPal and I'll take one. Thanks again.)

    I sent it to him, waited about a week to check tracking, it arrived at 1:44 the following week at his house. I pm to make sure he got it, he pm back telling me he had already bought one from Amazon plus said he never told me to send it, lesson learned even at 71 years old!!

    Rant over hope he loves living with his self!!!

    Being honorable isn't in some peoples priorities.
    Don't screw with others money when you owe them and never cheat a fellow member.

    Karma normally comes around at some point. Atleast that's what people tell me. I know years ago me and Stephanie got screwed. I eat it with people telling me Karma goes around.
    Had lots of dealings that there wasn't a single issue on here.

    Bummer!

    He said he would take one and gave his info on where to ship it. He needs to man up and pay you and sell it if he does not want or need it.

    I know most on here if not all are great to deal with. I've had a lot on here and don't even have a paypal acct. I always did it the BBC way and sent cash. Sorry you got scammed.

    I've sent stuff to other BBC members and only requested they cover shipping cost by personal check. Never a problem. I sent a box crammed full of stuff for a HS fishing team to a BBC member in Kentucky and never got as much as a "I got it", which was very disappointing.
    Don't bother me, I'm screwing for virginity.

    I killed a 12-pack just to watch it die.

    Lol. I did the same for a “wanted” post on here. I didn’t say a thing other than ask for his address and sent a nice box out. Nothing after that

    I had the same thing happen with a BBCer's son that was in the service who didn't have a lot of funds to buy tackle so his Dad asked for anyone on the BBC that might help him out. I sent a nice package didn't want any reimbursement for postage just asked for an email to make sure it arrived.

    No emails to even verify it's arrival from the son yes it was very disappointing

    That's disappointing! As a buyer, I've had nothing but good vibes here.

    ^ This. No different from ebay but safer. With ebay they have the abilty to scam, say they never got it, say its broken and pull a switcheroonie on the seller and return a different broken item and keep your good one etc etc etc.

    Luckily have always have good interactions with buying or selling on her and even paying it forward when I can but I find most on here as honest and I consider myself honest . But he should return it. I always try to follow up when I sell something to make sure it arrived and they are satisfies or thank them if it's something sent to me

    I know a guy
    There’s no use being stupid if you’re not willing to show it off.
