RE: Who else was ripped off by Barry Cohen, RCOnly Website.Com?
I ordered two airplanes and one 26cc engine three months ago, after waiting for about a month I got an engine. I called Barry Cohen and he told me the air planes would be sent in about one week after the engines.
I was told by him both by phone and by email the airplanes were in stock. He owes me $384.00 or one CMP 76" Corsair and one Hellcat. It has been 3 months now, Slow as I am, it finally sinks in that I been took!
I recently checked his web site and he has added to it. he still shows my Corsair and has added a beautiful Zero stating "IN STOCK", very familiar words. Also, he has added two insurance company's to the site. I pity the poor soul that may need to collect from them! How can we get this guy shut down so other folks don't get skinned as well? He gives Florida a bad name. I don't really want to deal with anyone from florida from now on.
I recently stopped bidding on a Saito engine from Canada because I got to thinking, I live a long ways away and like this clown from Florida, I am nearly 5000 miles away. How could I deal with them if things go wrong? I live in the high Cascades mountains in Oregon and it is a hundred miles round trip just to go to my bank in Bend Oregon. I fly out of a meadow that often is shared with elk and deer and I also fly off the high lakes. The only thing spoiling my fun is people like Barry Cohen of rconlysite.com This man is not very honest it turns out and I am just an ignorant old man. Times are getting tough for everyone and we don't need shysters fleecing the innocent! Thanks for listening and if anyone knows where I can get the plans for the TRI-SQUIRE that was made by MidWest in the 60's I would love to get my hands on a copy of the plans. I will pay for your expenses of course. Thank you, Steve.
