He reached out for me and sold me a Takara Waspinator. He shipped it fast and the figure was in good condition as he promised. Great communications. A++++
I bought a Botcon Pyro from him. Shipped fast and packed well, he's one of my go to's here on the boards. Solid all around!
I would not do business with again. Still waiting on my trade. We traded an IGEAR Cogz for my mp sunstorm. He sent me a maketoys gears. No problem I ahipped it back and we worked out another trade. Still has not shipped the trade nor has he responded to texts. Just really dissappointes overall. I pretty much gave him mp sunstorm and spent near 20$ on shipping overall. I wish there was some kind of recourse I could take other than this. Do you want to trade with this guy? Edit: Finally got my end of the trade after over a month and having to go to the mods. It was thrown into a box and shipped a bunch of parts. No instructions and a screwdriver. Would not trade with again. Awful all around.
Picked up a nearly new FP Kar Krash from Slick for a good price. Great communication. Took a few tries for him to get it to the post office but it was sent out after eight days and arrived in fine shape soon thereafter, so nothing to complain about. it was a Xmas gift for a friend and he's very happy. Thanks again Slick and merry Chrisytmas!
This man is a damn thief!!! I sent him a toyworld Orion, G3 trailer, Renderform Upgrade head for Orion, Fansproject Columpio and a Dr. WU Starsaber to trade for a used Ps3! As soon as he found out I was Law Enforcement the lies started. My part arrived within 2 days but he said he couldnt ship his part yet because he was broke from bailing out his brother. A few days later he is in the hospital with swine flu which lasted over 2 weeks. While he was in the hospital he had a flood which ruined his part of the trade and said he would mail my stuff back. After several days of ignored texts I threatened to take legal action in which he finally responded offering to buy the stuff from me. Another week and several more ignored texts he says hes too broke to pay and said he would have to mail my stuff back. Another week goes by and hes too poor to mail my stuff back yet hes still selling to people on this board. Nithing but lies and stall tactics!!! Avoid at all cost. I better get my stuff back or I will contact his local law enforcement for grand theft charges and fraud! UPDATE- Finally got my stuff back after a month of trying to get him to return my stuff. Multiple threats and I'm guessing some help from the mods here prevailed! Anyways I DO NOT RECOMMENDED THIS GUY, VERY SHADY and does not live up to his word! Thank you for those that helped me get my stuff back and those trying to look out for me. I have received multiple messages that he tried to sell my stuff to others while I was waiting for it all to be returned. Again, do NOT TRUST THIS MAN!!!
I may as well post this, even though it will have absolutely no effect on my situation. Slickleg, or Josh Kehn of Hays, KS, initiated a trade with me before all this mess hit about him being a total POS now. He has my part of the trade and won't respond to my text messages. He gave me his cell number and did respond at first, but now he is ignoring me. He's a liar and a thief. If anyone deals with him outside of this forum, please be on the look out for a stolen Diaclone Version Columpio!!!
You are not alone. He also initiated a trade with me, offering the very same Orion and Renderform kit he scammed off autobot prowl for my Columpio, which he initially thought was the convention exclusive, but wanted to go ahead with the trade anyway after I told him it was the retail version. Like you, his feedback thread had been clean up till the day I sent out my part of the trade. Alarms started ringing after I found an auction for Orion with a G3 trailer and a Renderform kit with the exact same number as the one in the pictures he sent me. As I live halfway across the world from him, I only have his email, which he is not responding to. I think from the multiple victims it is quite clear he had already planned to take advantage of his history of good feedback to prey on people when initiating the trades. If there are any other victims out there, please step forward. Maybe we could work something out together.
I am filing a paypal claim right now against him. Said he was sending Nemesis Prime right before this crap started...Claimed I sent the money to the wrong paypal at first and now all this negative feedback.
Sorry people are having issues with this guy too. I wanted to post his crap weeks before but I was afraid it would kill my chance of getting my stuff back. Perhaps if I did I might have saved some of you guys from being victimized. I even had to send a pic of my uniform (Law Enforcement) before he would start responding to me again. I suppose I was a lucky one though. It's amazing what people turn to out of nowhere, certainly opened my eyes about trading again here. Thankfully most people here are good people. Just glad this guy is banned and can't scam anyone else here!
I dealt with him some months back and it was rather slow and he made a ton of excuses and even used his mom as an excuse in all of it, but in the end he did come through. I got the wrong UT Sharkie, but I was glad to have it, period. It was over 8 days before the transaction completed on his end, I can't find my comment in the thread at the moment, but it's in here. I was a bit leery when all of the "delays" and excuses came up. Such as his son and girlfriend/wife/whatever she was sick and in the hospital or vice versa. (Can't remember, the story was so convoluted.) It certainly put a sour taste in my mouth to the point that I was relieved, but wouldn't do another deal with him, ever. Not even if desperate. My patience and nerves are two things that are irreplaceable and I wasn't willing to give him more the second time around. Still, can't rush the mods to "deadbeat" him just yet. We have to see if they can get a fire lit under his ass to get things moving, and if nothing happens after that, then yeah, deadbeat away. One other thing, people in this thread keep calling him Josh, but looking in my saved PMs, emails from Paypal and payment receipts, there are different names being used here. Email: trey_dawgXX@*****.*** (amended the email address so it wouldn't get spammed) Paypal receipt says: So, which is it? Josh or Trevor? I'm starting to see I got really lucky and dodged a bullet on my transaction. I'm sorry you guys are going through this.
It's been updated now: http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/junki...90-members-deadbeats-list-2.html#post11986925 If anyone has any additional contact information (name, email address, address, etc) for slickleg please PM those details to me. Also, feel free to detail problem transactions here, but remember this is not a discussion forum. Thanks!
Looking into the information just posted. Deleted to avoid incriminating those who may be innocent here. Please PM me with any details.
UPDATE: I've been in touch with Slickleg. After Javier encouraged me to email him, I got a response. He has also texted me via phone. Trey_Dawg05 may be his brother. However, it appears they are both involved in this fiasco. Trey to a lesser extent possibly. He stated he was looking to send back my stuff on Wednesday when he gets paid. I'm taking all of this with a huge grain of salt until I get a tracking number.
He repeatedly told me the same story but never delivered, just non stop excuses. I hope you get your stuff back, good luck!
