He's now mysteriously taken all of his items off ebay. Made both of his instagrams private. If he doesnt refund my money i will make sure to make his existence on the internet a living hell. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.

Not if he convinces you to pay as a friend, he refunded my first payment, (which I still haven't got back) and then asks to do that do he won't get slammed with the extra fees, I guess I had it coming, but I'm gonna work with PayPal I have all our messages still. If anything we'll make sure this guy doesn't try and sell shit again. Skinner already hit him up via Instagram and he instantly deleted his shit and made his profiles private.


Good luck with that, once i snt two pmts "as goods" for some shit, and i never received what i paid for, supposedly it was going to get that fixed by the seller, he shipped somewhere else so he was waiting for the item to come back to him, i waited and waited and i ended up opening a claim right before the 40 days paypal gives you to file one, and i only got refunded for the second pmt, supposedly they took the first one as down pmt and they were not able to cover that with buyer protection, so that douche ended up taking $200 from me.

I tried making his internet life hell. Blasted his instagram and facebook page. He just deleted my comments and blocked me. I got his phone number and home address and threatened to get a lawyer involved and he finally caved in and sent me my money back. He and his crew of friends that set up fake ebay handles and paypal accounts are garbage thieves and came an inch away from getting jumped and beat.

You/your brother/Skinner should let Mishka/Greg/Joel to never deal with this lowlife - I'm sure he'll try to scam someone else

Does he have an account on Skullbrain or KR? Get him BANNED! There is no law against flipping, but theft and fraud should not happen.

If he's already taken money from any of you and you never got anything back, you should call authorities otherwise, he's just going to keep doing it under a new name.

Yeah. I'm guessing LA from what little I looked at his twitter. Since he is in my state, if you have his address and still need help, I may be able to offer some Pro Bono time to set this guy straight. Just let me know. If lawyers scare him, I'm GODZILLA and he's tokyo.

LA makes sense, cause I was wondering how lowlife worms like him always seem to get ahold of rare/great toys ..... :evil: I wish the mighty fist of toy karma would slam down on him....

Money refunded in full today. Hope this is an eye opener for everyone. Be careful with who youre dealing with, haha and definitely dont make personal payments unless you have dealt with the person before and have a trusting relation with the seller. Never fuck with Keffpristine aka aprilrainnn. So thankful for anyone who had my back and helped resolve this, especially Skinner. Still a little sour I'm not getting my mock bat, but very pleased to have my money back!
