BEWARE BUYING FROM AUDIZINE - DEVILS4
Posted: Wed Feb 06, 2013 8:43 am
Ok, a story for all of us to be careful when buying from overseas forums
Firstly, over the last 12 years I have bought hundreds of items from Ebay and more recently via forums such as Audisrs. Rs246 & Audizine and until noe never ever been ripped off, or failed to receive the item purchased. with one exception everyone of every nationality in many countries has been brilliant - i even had a guy from Audizine take delivery of some tools for me (which he paid for before I transferred the money to him) so he could post them on to me - turned out the postage was close to $500 for $100 worth of tools so I said he could keep them - he sold them for $150 and sent me all the money - Great guy!
that changed late last year when I paid for some porsche 18z calipers & rotors to suit of a guy called DEVILS4 on Audizine. initial communication was great, he asked the right questions, offered to get rotors, told me they were ordered & and when he got them he would post.
They never showed - he stopped responding to my PM's and happily pocketed my money knowing I'm in Australia and cant touch him.
The admoinistartors on Audizine were useless - They wouldn't even respond to my PM's - just poor form (I know they couldn't solve it just wanted some assistance in contacting him)
I've done a bunch of research, his business name is Redline Auto Group, based at 6700 Derry St in Swatara County, Harrisburg PA.
The police will only pursue him if I am willing to attend court as the victim. That's probably going to cost me a week off work and $3k in fares, accommodation, transfers, food etc - just not worth it!
So whatever you do never buy anything of the lowlife, or have anything to do with him
all I can do is let you all know, be happy that in the whole scheme of things $920 will not change my life (although I'd rather have it than lose it)
so beware!
Graze
