i feel stupid for doing this for a measly $50 but at the same time i must
it started with this thread by him
http://www.importatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?t=116239
note that i was intsrested in his soundstream amp and was willing to pay every cent he wanted from it. no haggling and i would pick it up from him.
he clearly says..."Used, in good working order."
we pm each other a few times to discuss when and where i could pick it up from him and i ask him again to make very sure if it is good working order
and i am copy/pasting from a pm...
"It was in my car and working fine."
i pick up the amp, to go and have a new headunit installed without an internal amp, 2 sets of new components, and a new mono amp. so that being said, i need and expected to have a WORKING 4 channel soundstream amp since the HU has no power
i rip everything out of the car, , install all speakers, install both amps, and when i power up the SS from matt....pop goes the fuse.
i try another fuse...pop, pop, pop 3 more times.
so i have to buy ANOTHER 4 channel amp since the new headunit is in, and the old HU is gone.
i quickly that day ask again in a pm....does the amp work? and his reply by PM is
It was in my car and working fine. I removed it after I had an accident and it sat in my garage for about a year. Here is what I'll do. Whenever you can, bring it back up to me at my work and I'll have one of our engineers take a look at it and see if it can be repaired. He has repaired a few things for me in the past. If he can fix it, we're good. If not, then I'll give you your money back. Sorry for the trouble, it wasn't intentional. LMK when a good time for you would be. I apologize again, but it did work the last time I had it installed.
so cool, i drop the amp to him and said take your time, i have another amp so there's no real rush...this was all in april and may. its now september
on may 27 he sends me a pm saying-
-found the problem, we are waiting on parts. They should be here monday, I'll let you know.
on 6-12 he sends another pm saying-
-Sorry man, I've been really backed up at work. If I can't get it done this week, then I'll give it back to you and we'll work something out.
10 day later on 6-22 i send another pm asking for an update and he says-

okay man, I'm in Minnesota until monday, I'll get with you then, I'm not ignoring you, I've just been traveling alot for work. Sorry about the delay.
3 days later-
Hey man, okay here is the deal. The guy I work with took the amp home w/ him to see if he could fix it, but everytime I ask him about it, he always says he's too busy to mess with it. I am truly VERY sorry about this man, it is not intentional at all. If you want to swing by sometime this week to my work, I'll gladly give you your money back. It's either that, or I'll just keep bugging my guy and get it back as soon as he's done. I realize that this seems like an excuse but I assure you that it's not, had I known it was going to take this long, then I would have just given you some money and the amp back and called it a day. LMK what it is that you want to do, and I'll be happy to oblidge either way. Again, I am sorry for the trouble and promise I'll make it right.
at this point i forot about the amp for a few weeks...my fault. so once again i pm him asking to either get the amp in working condition or the stupid $50 and this is his reply-
sorry man, I'm in San Diego for the week on work, you should have hit me up last week when I pm'd you. I'll be back in town next Monday.
i have sent 2 more pm's on august 7 and sept 6 with no reply. his profile shows that he has logged onto IA just about everyday since then most recently today around noon...

i have posted an "attn nbp01ls" thread in whoreslounge but he has yet to ever confirm reading his pm's, nor ever reply to my messages, nor make any effort to give me back the amp in working order or give me back my $50.
he has said before qouted above
"I am sorry for the trouble and promise I'll make it right."
he hasn't made anything right, it ended up costing more money and i have nothing to show for it from him. he has never had to lift a finger outside of walking to meet me at his place of employment since i always went to him
cliff notes-
bought an amp in april from him that he claimed worked...didn't work said he'd fix it or give money back...neither has happened.
won't return pm's won't give back amp in working condition or payment
