if it was a deal made through the for sale forums let rcu know about it.. if you guys made the [make offer] feature they will look into. you still may not get anything in return but he will not be aloud to post anymore on the for sale forums.

there was a kid here from NY that sent his truck [tmaxx] to a guy in VA for a trade on a revo. the guy from ny sent his truck but never got the revo. so since i am fom va i wrote a letter and mailed it to the kids parents saying that i was coming to his house for the truck and if i still didnt get it we would take him to small claims court to file a theft by deception charge,

well it took 3 weeks but the kid finally mailed the revo.. that does suc that some people can be such a-holes and thieves. hope it works out for ya..jake

I'm assuming you've got some emails for proof of the trade? You didn't do all this over the phone right? You've got the shipping receipt along with tracking information? I'd suggest that you contact him one last time then go to the cops. Theft is theft and at the least the local cops should be willing to call or pay him a visit and scare him into returning your stuff or sending the car.

I'm wondering the same. Even 1 evader is worth as much as a himoto, nitro or not.

I know what it's like to be ripped off, though. My bro got ripped by a ebay seller. Fortunately, paypal is straightening things out, though.

Was this transaction through the RCU Marketplace?

It really is sad that there are so many dishonest people in this hobby who deal online. It makes it harder for those of us who are legitimate and care about customers to do business.

Same thing happened to me with cliff when I call him he picks up but when he finds out it's me he hangs up immediately and its very hard to get a hold of him he's had my tmaxx for over 2 months but he has not shipped his truck yet. Today i decided to call my police department and they said it classified as scamming and some other stuff and gave me the number for the FBI no joke i might call them but it feels so silly to call the FBI over a rc car, but yet again I'm 15 and i paid for this truck by mowing lawns all summer.

Stay in school little dude!

ALLRIGHT all those of you have been scammed by this jerk If you have saved the emails and ivoices Go to >>> http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx or http://www.ic3.gov/faq/default.aspx << its a internet crime refferal site .File a complaint and hopefully we can all pool our resources to get this guy what is coming to him and hopefully our stuff back or some type of justice . it might take a while to file the complaint but they contacted me after a week and Im now waiting on a call from the Conneticut state police . I know hes been suspended but that doesnt stop him from using an alternate email and re registering under a different name .
If we all file complaints then perhaps there will be somthing done .
