Apparently this DeadBeat is calling himself 924Carrera on eBay.

He has been sucessful at getting several eBay Sellers to send items to him before he sends payment, and then he ducks the Sellers/Senders.

He is also bidding on items without paying for them. I am one of the people that he owes money to. No, I was not dumb enough to fall for his stories and ship without his payment.

His home city is listed as Ankeny, IA, and phone number as (515) 965-4402. If anybody is in that local area, can you verify his phone number (please don't waste your money on a toll call, if he is too far away from you).

I used Google for the phone number and came up with this:

Call me anytime you want Gohim. I have never recived any calls nor e-mails about this subject before.

I have NOT ripped anyone off on e-bay. No one has sent me items without me paying first. Had several MO come up missing and never delivered and I have been out of of town until this Tuesday.

If you would like to settle this off this forum that is fine. But don't make statemants I have ripped you or anyone else off and post total f_cking BS that I tried to get you to send me parts for free!!!!!! Seems everyone is jumping on the bandwagon that I'm ripping people off and that pisses me off since I ripped NO ONE OFF!!!!

Sh_t happens and I have the USPS looking into it.

Have been buying and selling on this forum for years with no problems!

If you are 924carrera on eBay, I have sent you numerous direct emails, and emails through the eBay Message System. You won the auction that I ran for a brand new 924 glove box cover for $39.99 plus shipping that ended on May 15th. My terms of sale posted in all of my auctions clear state that payment must be made within 10 days of the end of auction. You posted to the eBay System that you were sent payment, yet no payment ever arrived. And you have not responded to any email since. So where is the money?

I did not write that you requested that I send parts before you sent your payment. I wrote that other people claim in their Negative FeedBack Comments posted to 924Carrera on eBay that the stuff was sent or a request was made to send the stuff before payment was sent, and "those" people never received payment.

You have accumulated ( Negative FeedBack Comments posted by different Sellers on eBay in just the past three weeks for Non-Payment. One Seller claims that you asked him to send item before you received payment, which he did, and you never paid him, or even answer email from him. Another Seller claims that you asked him also to send the stuff before getting payment, and while he refused to do so, he never received payment either. Another Seller noted that you marked the sent payment button, yet he never received payment, while another Seller wrote that you emailed him several times with excuses for why you had not paid yet.

With a total of 18 FeedBack Comments posted between April 21st and June 2nd, ( are Negative from Sellers that you failed to pay and (10) are Positive. That makes your eBay FeedBack Number (4) and sinking further almost daily, eBay currently has you at 62.5%, because you stiffed a couple of Sellers on two items each, and eBay does not dial in multiple Negative FeedBack Comments into the FeedBack percentage calculation.

Thanks for declaring your identity to the other members of this message board. Let's see how much business you do with members now that everyone knows how you conduct your business and treat people who you have agreed to buy stuff from.

So try to shovel the turds, and act all indigent. Your FeedBack shows that you stiff people all the time on payments.

If you have been selling stuff to people on this message board for years without a problem, why do you have a new membership on eBay, and just joined this board in Jan.2005? Did you have a problem with people that you stiffed hounding you to make good on the deals that you agreed to, or for payment? Maybe you treat people sending you money different than the people that you are supposed to be buying stuff from. And maybe you are taking money from people on this board, without even having the stuff, then going out to eBay to try to find the stuff you already accepted the money for.

I don't know what your story is, but I would not buy anything from you, nor I will I ever waste my time again by knowingly allowing you to bid on my eBay auctions, or offer to sell to your or agree to sell to you on this message board. It costs Sellers money to run auctions on eBay, and more money when someone bids on auctions on eBay. At the VERY LEAST, YOU OWE THE SELLERS OF THE ITEMS THAT YOU AGREED TO BUY ON EBAY THE LISTING AND FINAL VALUATION FEES THAT THEY ARE BEING FORCED TO PAY ON THE ITEMS THAT YOU WON THE BIDDING ON AND FAILED TO PAY FOR.

So, if you are not a Scamming DeadBeat, why are so many Sellers posting the same complaint about none payment, and your request that they send the items before you pay?

[944s2guy]

Sounds like alot her hearsay to me. Did I request you send me items before you recieved payment - Er NO!!!! So don't claim I did.

As I said before, I have been gone and several MO's for large amounts have come up missing AFTER I MAILED THEM. I have contacted the USPS to resolve the problem. All the crap has happen within the last 3 weeks while I was gone on Biz. So don't make me out to be someone who has this long history of ripping people off and stiffing them.

I have read your ebay feedback on ebay too, seems people think your no saint as well! Sh_t happend dude! Being a complete f_ucking A-hole about BS statements doens't make it any better.

Again, we can settle this like gentleman and move on. Or not? Oh yes, I will never buy or sell from you.. ever - so don't worry about that!!!!

I have never ripped anyone off on this forum, ever!!!

Don't jump on a forum with a bunch of hearsay second hand stories and BS unbacked statements like "And maybe you are taking money from people on this board, without having the stuff, then going out of eBay to try to find the stuff you already accepted the money for". Very uncool!

Buying and selling 924/944 parts is not my life. If I have a part that will help guy out, fine, I'll sell it. If your unbacked statements changes if someone wants to buy from me or not I really don't care. Nice try!! You will not find one person on this board I have taken money from and not shipped.

How much is your meesly ebay fee and send you the money in any form you want. The USPS has put a trace on all the money order mailed. Your not worth all this BS and hassle over $39 glove box!!

[gohim]

DeadBeats always post Retaliatory Negative FeedBack when they get Negative FeedBack Comments posted to their history. They change screen names and start over. This form of intimidation scares many honest Sellers into not reporting Negative Transactions, so they don't get the Negatives from the DeadBeats.

At this point, I have decided that the Retaliatory Negative FeedBack Threat does not scare me anymore. So I post the FeedBack that goes with the transaction. DeadBeats who win auctions, don't respond to messages, and don't pay (like you), get Negative FeedBack. Then, in return, the DeadBeat posts Retaliatory Negative FeedBack (which is in violation of the eBay TOS). Then the DeadBeat changes screen names. Is this why you have a new screen name on eBay?

If a Seller stiffs me by not sending the item that I paid for, or it arrives not in the condition claimed in the eBay ad, and the Seller does not fix the problem, the Seller gets Negative FeedBack. In return, I have gotten Negative FeedBack from several Sellers who failed to send the items that Ipaid for, or claim that they sent the items and they must have been lost in transit, and refuse to send me proof that the items were sent at all.

I have 8-10 Negative FeedBack Comments from Buyers in Canada that are mad at me because I refused to send the items to Canada as my eBay ads state, because I refuse to ship out of the US. Many buyers in Canada feel that they have the right to ignore the me eBay terms of sale and can demand that I ship to them in Canada. I don't ship to Canada anymore because of the high percentage of Negative FeedBack Comments due to High Canadian Customs Fees, and lost of stolen shipments going to Canada. eBay refuses to do anything about ineligible Buyers who are not supposed to bid on items that they are ineligible to bid on.

With over 1000 recorded eBay Feedback Comments I have 22 Negaatives Comments from DeadBeats, Scam Artists, and Ineligible Bidders in Foreign Countries, and my ebay membership is over six years old. With a new eBay Membership less then 2 months old, half of your FeedBack is Negative from multiple Sellers with the same complaints. Most people would agree that you are the less trustworthly/reliable eBay member.

Now, are you claiming that you have been out of town on business for the past three weeks, and that all of the "money orders" that you paid all the eBay Sellers with disappeared, and you have filled multiple complaints with the USPS reporting the loss of all those money orders, and you never received a single email from eBay or any of the eBay Sellers that are complainging about non-payment, and you have been out of touch since you went out of town?

Now you are claiming that you made complaints about the missing money orders to the Post Office. Prove it by scanning and posting copies of the Postal Service Complaint and Tracer Forms to this message board, and I will take this private, and post the result when this is over.

And all of the documented Negative FeedBack Comments are a Conspiracy against you? Where is Mulder when you need him?

Then, how did you continue to post on this message board during the period when you were gone, when you were not in touch?

As one of the Negative FeedBack Comments to your eBay History reads: "Never paid. Promises and excuses but no money. Big hat but no cattle!".

"...You can fool some of the people, some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time....".

[944s2guy]

What ever dude....

I'm not going to round and round on this and waste the bandwitdh. I guess your just 100% perfect and have never had anything go bad, but your day will come... it will come and we'll see how you like it.

Send me what you e-bay fee was and i'll pay you as I stated before. I'll get a refund on the USPS money order and you can take your $39 glove box and shove it. Sound Good!!! Good, works for me....

[gohim]

That's just great.

How about if I post your information to the rest of the eBay Sellers that you stiffed, and you can make good to everybody?

I am sure that they will be happy to know that they are part of a huge conspiracy with the Post Office against you, out to ruin your reputation.

[gohim]

Just to let everbody know...

As I predicted, 924carrera aka 944s2guy posted Untrue Retaliatory Negative FeedBack to my eBay FeedBack History, today.

And here is a warning for others who may read his ads in the For Sale Section...

The 7 X 16 Fuchs Wheels that he has listed for sale for $250 very well could be STOLEN or EMBEZELED (legal term). One of the eBay Sellers who posted a Negative FeedBack Comment for 924carrera sent him a pair of 7 X 16 Fuchs wheels before receiving payment from him, after he asked the Seller to. The Seller never received payment for the wheels (back in March eBay auction #7960839442 ended March 10th 2005). Seller posted Negative FeedBack Comment on May 9th, 2005, regarding Non-Payment for the wheels after he shipped them to 924carrera.

924carrera claims that he never asked any Sellers to send the item/s before he sent payment (read Negative FeedBack Comment in 924carrera FeedBack History posted May 27th 2005 auction #7969283324), and he does not owe people any money now because he sent money orders (which were all lost). Further claims that he filed tracers/complaints with the Post Office. But when I asked for proof that he purchased the money orders, and placed the tracers/complaints, he ignored me. It would be easy enough for an innocent and honest party to prove his honesty by providing the proof. Afterall, the money orders would have come with a stub, and the purchase would have gotten him a receipt, and the Post Office actions all include a carbon copy of the forms given to the customer.

Forewarned is Forearmed.....

[Neil924]

This whole thing smeels like a dead fish. I'm in sales and I can spot untrue statements and lies. [Read above}

Sorry about your troubles Gohim.

[gohim]

I got a response back from the eBay Seller that wrote the Negative FeedBack for 924carrera aka 944s2guy, confirming that 944s2guy does not own the 7 X 16 wheels that he is advertisings for sale in the For Sale Section.

Here is a copy of the message that I received from the legal owner of the wheels that 944s2 guy owes $152, plus delivery shipping X 2, and how this came to happen.

Dear gohim,

thank you, yes I sent him the wheels and he never paid me. Originally I sent them collect, he claimed the UPS driver always missed him, would i sent them and trust him to pay, I did, he did not pay. I called his place of employment and sent registered letters. But got no responce. I waited to long to file a complaint with Ebay so I wrote this off to experience. Actually those wheels cost me $250.00 each, the guy must have no conscience and be a real low life.

Please respond to the question on eBay by clicking the button below.




Thank you,
thomasl8448

This guy's email address is elkrfgtom@msn.com

I have invited him to visit us here on the board, and leave a message for the Admin regarding his wheels.

[944s2guy]

Gohim has decided to go WAY out of his way to make me out to be some bad guy that rips people off. I have offered to pay him for the glove box, and or his fees - but he instead posts all the hearsay crap you have read above.

7x16 FUCHS PAID!!!!!!!

Money Order to Thomas Llyod $190.00 #46356952763 Travelers Express. As provided AS PROOF OF PAYMENT TO EBAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, the wheels did arrive COD while I was gone. So I paid even more to have them re-shipped. I travel and I'm gone sometimes up to month at a time so I can't always get back to people as fast as I wish, and will admit I'm not perfect. But these where paid for in FULL.

Again, I NEVER ripped anyone off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And in case your wondering, the 7x16" Fuchs I'm selling ARE NOT the same ones I bought on e-bay.

And once again, I would be more than happy to settle up with you off this forum and would be more then happy to pay for your fees or re-pay to get the glove box, it was only the 15th when the auction ended. I have not stolen anything from you or anyone else... EVER!

[gohim]

944s2guy, so what did you do with the wheels that you never paid for, if as you claim the wheels that you are selling are not the same ones? If you are using them, you should have paid the guy for them months ago. If you turned around and sold them, then you should have paid the guy for them months ago. Come to think of it, you don't have a valid reason that would allow you to stiff the Seller/Owner of the wheels and the 2X shipping that he paid to deliver the wheels twice to you.

944s2guy, you never offered to pay, other than when you placed your bid on the glove box cover during the eBay auction. And while you did say that you would pay my eBay auction costs, while I have not taken the time to look and see exactly what they were, you also cost me time and aggravation.

As I have already written here, and several times to you, when you failed to pay on time, or even respond to my emails, my eBay terms of Sale stated in my eBay ads required payment within 10 days of the end of auction. The auction ended 22 days ago. You never responded to any of my messages until I posted the one on this message board asking whether anyone lived in your area, or knew you. Your being "out of town" as you claim didn't stop you from bidding on eBay auctions, or posting messages on this board, so obviously you were not out of touch as you claim.

You are right to an extent, that the amount of money that lost, and I paid to PayPal for auction costs that you owe me are small (I got charged $3.92 by PayPal to auction the glove box cover, you owe me $39.99, plus shipping)... WHEN COMPARED TO THE TOTAL that you owe/stiffed other people for on eBay. From what I can see from PUBLIC EBAY RECORDS, you owe" $152, plus 2X shipping to a Seller for the wheels that you took without paying, $100, plus shipping for a rear fiberglass bumper, $205, plus shipping for a late model 944 dashboard and other parts, plus shipping, $225, plus shipping for a motorcycle swingarm, and $22, plus shipping to another eBay Seller for some late model dashboard parts.

You claim that you paid by money order, you claim you never got any email from me or eBay. You claim that the Money Orders for all of the people who placed Negative FeedBack Comments in your eBay History were lost by the Post Office. You claim that you made complaint/s to the Post Office about the lost money orders. You claim that the wheels are paid for, then you claim that you don't owe money on them. You claim that you never asked anyone to ship without receiving payment first, and you claim that the wheels that you have for sale are not the ones that you stole from the eBay Seller.

From one of the messages that you posted here: "...I have NOT ripped anyone off on e-bay. No one has sent me items without me paying first. Had several MO come up missing and never delivered and I have been out of of town until this Tuesday...."

From another of your messages: "... Yes, the wheels did arrive COD while I was gone. So I paid even more to have them re-shipped. I travel and I'm gone sometimes up to month at a time so I can't always get back to people as fast as I wish, ..."

Changing your story again, eh?

You claimed that I accused you of heresay, that I didn't have any proof that you owed, or failed to pay. I submitted the message from the Seller that you stiffed, and still owed money to for the wheels, as my supporting information, along with his email address, so any interested party can verify what I have said about the matter for him/herself.

I asked that you send proof of payment in the form of a scan of the money order receipt/s, a scan of of the money order stub/s, and a scan of the carbon copy of the Post Office complaint. You replied "...what ever...",

Now you send a bunch of numbers, and claim that they are the numbers for a money order you bought to pay for what? How about those scans? The BIG LIE... Is it really easier to tell than a small one?

A little more information on the WHEEL RIP-OFF. Auction ended March 10th, Positive FeedBack posted by 924carrera on April 2nd?, Negative FeedBack with claim of Non-Payment, after wheels were shipped posted by seller on May 9th. My question, if the Seller received payment when 924carrera/944s2guy claims he sent it, why would the Seller wait over a month after 924carrera posted Positive FeedBack to make a claim that he never got paid? Could it be because the Buyer claimed that the "payment was in the mail", and after waiting a month, decided the Seller figured out that the Buyer was lying? Check eBay FeedBack History for 924carrera and Seller to verify this information.

If you never ripped the Seller of the wheels off, how do you explain the message that he sent me, claiming that he never received payment from you, and you have failed to respond to his requests that you pay what you owe him?

944s2guy: "...big hat, no cattle...", as written by another unhappy eBay Seller that you stiffed. That about covers what I think about your personal character and reputation.

[Neil924]

I have been in this situation before and it's a very sour deal. 944s2guy will probably stop posting here {or use another name... same for ebay}. You have to be careful when dealing online with anyone gohim. Again, sorry for your troubles.

[gohim]

I went to ship some stuff by FedEx, and when I got back, this message was waiting for me from Thomas, the eBay Seller that 944s2guy stiffed on payment for the (2) wheels (auction ended back on March 10th, 944s2guy has had the wheels, at least since the beginning of April, but there were several attempted deliveries before that).

Here is the message:

Sorry to hear that you never got paid.

Your Buyer James Downing is selling things on a semi-regular basis on the 924 Website I suspect that some of the other things that he is selling have been stolen as well.

He is using a number of different email addresses.

Please go to the 924board.org Website and leave a message for the System Adminstrator. The System Adminstrator is waiting for your message to confirm that 944s2guy does not own the wheels, before he takes action. The 924 Board is fairly large, and the membership may be able to squeeze him into paying you if you leave messages in the General Discussion Section, and in the Scam Artist's For Sale Ad (944s2guy on the site). May be a board member or two that could go to this guy's house, and try to convice him that he should return the wheels or pay what he owes.

Good Luck.
