    I sold the header to someone locally, and refunded him his money.

    NOT SCAMMED, read the last post, the kid i sold it to locally sent him the money.

    these are both the same person, this was well after i sold my company. He was an INTL person, header was sent back due to customs issues, ended up sending it to a family member he had in the states. he paypalled someone that wasnt even me (look at the address).

    NOT SCAMMED

    Read the very first thing he posted
    To any newcomers reading this, please note that Vteckidd has resolved this issue and I am happy with the results. Please skip to post 242 for the update.
    Not scammed. That was a shipping problem and the kid was a JACKASS. He bought 3 headers, my warehouse in california (also my business partner) shipped him all 3 boxes BANDED together with 1 label. In customs (the kid lives in canada) the header was delivered, but it was only 1 header , not 3.

    Guy calls me up and says YOU OWE ME 2 headers! I told him how do i know you are telling me the truth, i will have to make a claim with USPS to make sure, and call my warehouse to see what happened.

    I had been scammed repeatedly by International buyers. I dont trust them. I had been scammed out of close to $10,000 a year by overseas people. My warehouse person assured me he shipped 3 headers, but then i was sent 1 tracking number and i put 2 and 2 together. Either A this guy was lieing, or B USPS lost the other 2 in shipment and the box with the label made it. Either way, MIKE CORVEY CAME OUT OF POCKET $500 and shipped him 2 more headers.

    NOT SCAMMED.


    As for Batlground
    The story was posted on here, i explained everything that happened. I didnt do anything wrong, I quit , Peter Nickelson worked there (initial_eg) and so did the old Brandon, both were present when i told Dan Willey after an argument that "i quit" and walked out. Dan asked me to stay, and not make a rash decision. I quit an opened my own business the next day.

    Not Scammed

    Basically you are rehashing all the old stuff that is well known to people that dealt with me or paid attention. I basically got tired of being accused of being a scammer and having every cheap ass import enthusiast rip ME OFF and create internet drama i had to respond to. I got VERY jaded and started literally telling kids to FUCK OFF. People would call me at 3am and ask about headers.

    I then had a falling out with my business partner(WITZ) that for legal reasons i cannot talk about publicly. Buy me a beer and i will tell you the story as long as it is not recorded.

    Chris Dye (the owner of ClubRSX.com) made close to $12,000(in 2 months) because I MADE HIM A DEALER. I gave him NO BUY IN, just a low wholesale cost. After 2 months, Chris did what he NORMALLY does, he tried to extort me to get a lower cost. He sent me emails saying "i want to make more money, or i will trash your product and ban you from the forum". I told him to fuck off. My business partner went behind my back and sold to him, so he BENEFITED by trashing me and buying my header from my business partner. I have proof of all of this FYI. I keep DETAILED records. I even filed suit against PLM but withdrew because it was too expensive.

    Anyone that personally KNOWS ME and has met me, knows i never rip people off, and i always help people. After giving my blood sweat and tears to this industry and basically getting kicked in the face, i got very angry at it. I ran my own business and strived to be the best , i was , for a LONG TIME. I got out of it because i saw the writing on the wall. I would rather do IT work and make 5 times the money, than listen to ignorant 18-25 year old kids trash talk someone that is trying to help them.

    I hope i answered your questions. believe it, or not. You can probalby find more stuff if you keep digging, ive seen a ton of it. I stopped fighting it a long time ago. What always is funny to me is you wont find the 10,000+ people that left me positive feedback and reviews on other forums. you only find the 1% that say things negatively. That is why i got out of it, tired of helping people and being given stress i didnt need anymore.
