Man i know exactly how you feel. I was looking around on ebay and found an in dash dvd player i wanted and the webpage said that the buy it now option was the cheapest way to go and it wasn't on the page to use, so i emailed her and she responded back agreeing to sell me one at an awesome price. She gave me her name and address and telephone number, everything. Then just to be safe i went back to read her feedback on ebay and she had 100% positive and all the replies were good. Everything looked safe to me so i sent her $989.00 the next day and she never spoke to me again. I contacted ebay, they didn't do crap, I filed a complaint at www.fraud.org over a month ago with no word from them yet. I tried calling the local police in her area, that didn't work either. Everyone pretty much just told me I was sh*t out of luck and that the situation "sucked" but no one could do anything. The fraud place told me that unless they have more than one complaint on the same person, than more than likely they won't have a pattern to follow and they won't even pursue the case. It sucks man but just learn from your mistakes. Mine cost me twice as much as yours did but I'm sure as hell more carefull now. Good luck in finding that punk and fixing this whole situation though.

By the way......don't buy crap from "lyzzyloo" on ebay. (unless you just want to give somebody some money for nothing, which in that case, i could use some so just give it too me )

Let us know when he gives you back your $. When he realizes what is going on, he'll want it to stop. You might even want to charge him a "service fee" for the problems that he caused you as well, say about $50-$75 on top of what he owes you. Good luck.

Bad news, my man...that address is a UPS store....the owner's name is Derek Puleo. The phone number is 314-892-8492. I went in there this morning, and the guy sitting behind the counter SAID he was the owner, and didn't know who Kevin Kirsting was, but that they have 300 Post Office Boxes. I don't know how they can take mail in there and not have a PO Box number, and not know the name or at least have some familiarity with the name. Anyway, that is all the info I can get for you right now. If you had a phone number, that would help a ton.
BTW, there was a black Z28 sitting outside the UPS store, but no Borla on it, and "Derek" wouldn't admit to any knowledge of who it belongs to......maybe just coincidence, but a little odd in my book.

Ok....I went by his home address, 5343 Mardel Ave., St. Louis, MO 63109, and his sister answered, and she says he moved to New York on Thursday. I left my phone number for his dad to call me and give me any contact info he might have for him. Their home phone number there is 314-752-1448. Good luck on anything you can find out in addition to that....BTW, his dad's name is Kevin, also, and according to his sister, the scamming biotch doesn't even own a Camaro or Firebird.

I am not going to quit buying over the net but I have learned from my mistake. If I purchase something from a personal individual not a company then i will be purchasing via C.O.D.

Still havent recieved my cash or exhaust yet. He wont even talk to me. Hey G22lvr can you get me his parents phone number? I would greatly appreciate it, perhaps they can tell me how to get ahold of their gutless son. Later guys.
