Yeah. But God knows how dirty his hands were after he finished using this computer....

P.s. Why does he knock $300 off for a Halo 3 game?! For starters it is worth nowhere near that even that legendary pack. This guy is truly insane.
I see Doomy has an ad on Craig's list too for the same 4000 that is on Ebay.

NO SHIPPING OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA ! It is too expensive and I do not want to fill out stupid customs forms or have to jump through unnecessary hoops.

A hard drive for the Atari ST would sell for between $125 to $180 by itself, especially a SupraDrive Atari Hard Disk. A nice Atari monochrome monitor sells for between $25 to $65.

I am on eBay every day and I watch and keep a record of what Amiga and Atari ST items sell for. Anotherwards, I do my homework before I list an item. What makes my Amiga 4000 worth at least $500 is its new condition. If I still had the original box for it, the computer would sell for over $1000.00. It is the condition of an item that drives its value up. So, the closer an item is to new condition, the more valuable it is. And this is what you NOOBS seem to forget. Or are you just one of those assholes that try to get nice things for nothing.

I think things like this hurt his sales a lot more:
Q: Does it incl the CDROM? Oct-18-07
A: Did you actually read the auction description? Did you even read the auction title? It states: Atari 1040STe with 4 megabytes of RAM, TOS 2.05, and a High-Density disk drive. Nowhere in the auction does it say that the monitor, hard disk drive, or CD-Rom drive is included.
Well you gotta get a little tried of the dumb questions some people ask. This one takes the cake too. A CD-ROM drive on a Atari STE? They never came with one, and the only way you can add one is to buy an extremely expensive and rare SCSI host adaptor (ICD's the Link 2 or similar product, $100+ value) and external CD-ROM drive. Plus there was no pic or anything mentioned about a CD-ROM... But he should of tactfully replied with my above points instead of the way he did...

Ranting is not a regular thing for me but here goes; I would like to know:
1. Why this thread has not disappeared when similar ones have ?
2. Why the thread earlier today covering a guy that appeared to have been ripped off by Doomy for $450, but who then rescinded the whole thread was deleted from A.Org ? {Whatever happened to FREE SPEECH ?}
3. Why I get no information on why a thread has been moderated into oblivion ? (I wouldn't be asking these dumb questions if someone had explained the legal ramifications to me).
As I stated in the missing thread, new people keep coming forward having been ripped off by known people, and they say "If only I knew". What do we do to stamp it out ? We delete these threads just in case it upsets the "known people". Guess what ? More newbies get ripped off.
As we say in the UK, a spade is a spade.

Hi Arikel,
I have not ripped anyone off, and I have the shipping receipts to prove it.
They are cutting their own throat. I do a lot for the Amiga community, and I never get any thanks for it.

Hi Arikel,
dan08 is lying about me. Yes, he did email me wanting to buy my Amiga 4000, but, I never emailed him back. I decided to just keep my Amiga 4000. I do not know why that jerk is spreading lies about me. I just picked up a whole van load full of Amiga stuff. In all of that stuff there was a Cybervision 64/3D graphics card and a CyberStorm MKII 68060 board. I plan to install these boards into my Amiga 4000.
Last year, about this time, there were an average of 29 to 34 pages of Amiga auctions on eBay every day. Now, there are only about 6 to 7 pages of Amiga auctions on eBay at any given time. This is because jerks, like the people who are spreading lies about me, have pissed off many of the eBay sellers that were selling Amiga items.
To be fair, anyone who makes a claim against ANY Amiga seller, be it Doomy or otherwise, should provide evidence to back it up.

My guess is that he deleted all traces of what the original post was about so Wayne decided to delete yet another thread about what's his face.
I'm starting to wonder, with all these new people coming on and their first post being about what's his face (and perhaps no posts further), if the new people posting those posts are just what's his face trolling with multiple accounts... again.

After I posted the message, I received some very nasty E-Mails, that was why took the message back. When people start to defend his seller, remember why he is not here. What is most scary is, he is here, he got his point across earlier in the thread. I am not going to mess this this fellow. Not at all.

Dear save2600,
Well, I received your payment today, but I am not happy with it. The auction clearly states that I do not accept Western Union money orders. I will go ahead and accept it this time, but from now on read the entire auction. Also, both the auction and the email that I sent you states that only cash or a postal money order gets same day shipping. On other types of payment, please allow 6 to 8 weeks for processing. I meant just that. So, your package will not be shipped until around January 2008.

My reply:
Dear hgcsales,
Wow - you are not happy receiving a legitimate money order?
What is wrong with you and who do you think you are talking
to customers like that? I've been an eBay seller for much longer
than you and my feedback trounces yours. I'm sorry I missed
out on ONE of your buying qualifications, but I do not
appreciate being talked to this way. Go ahead and send me my
money back then. I will not wait for you to send out my CD
ROM until next year because you want to play some kind of a
power trip. If you do not comply within a reasonable amount of
time, I will personally call eBay and let them know of your
jerkiness. In the meantime, learn some customer service skills.
It's no wonder none of your items are selling. Especially the
overpriced A4k.

...and his reply:
Shoot! Can't find it right now, but he responded even worse! Telling me that if I give him {bleep}, he'll just give it right back. He also bragged that he had other eBay accounts and that he's been doing this for a "long" time. He then proceeded to tell me that he'll ship my CD ROM out AFTER the money order "clears". If any computer geek deserved a punch in the face lately - it would most certainly be him!! Hmm... too bad Oregon is 30 hours away from me. I would just want to pick up my CD ROM is all ;-)
Update... HGCSALES is no longer a registered user. I smell a dirty, stinkin' rat here. I wonder if Western Union will give me my money back. That's probably why he did not like that form of payment!

And I would tell you this to your face. I do not like it when punks like you talk crap about me in a public forum. You guys need to start picking on someone else. I have not done anything wrong to anybody, and if you think I have, prove it. The only thing I am guilty of is talking crap sometimes for a goof. If you guys want to talk to me, join my Amiga and Atari ST forum. I can even ask a Beaverton Police Officer to join in on our discussion of how I ripped some of you off. This is you chance to get it all out into the open. But, you better be prepared when going up against the DoomMaster, because I will get in your face with both barrels. I am usually a nice person, but people starting spreading lies about me and messing with my reputation, I get fighting mad.... "
Go ahead , get the police involved. I would love that. You are right about talking crap, but you should should have no problem doing that being the worthless piece of that you are. So go ahead and have the police call me or if you like I can initiate an investigation myself.

Why don't you buy something from Doomy then? So you can file your own law suits?

Another thing, I have had a lot of fun on this board. I do believe lately however it has become very negative and seems there are too many users with multiple identities. seems its much less fun and informative then it used to be. So I as one will be logging off. Its been fun. Good luck to all of you in the New Year. :-)
