Oh, by the way guys, the guy on US ebay selling these ICD products, has ripped me for $122. I paid him for some items inc shipping to UK, and in the period leading up to the transactions and on the day of the transaction I have no less that 10 emailed from him. Since I paid him, I haven't received a single one, despite 4 emails from me.

I'm currently filing a fraud complaing against him. All his bible-bashing rhetoric - "God bless you and all in your house" and "God speed" in his emails, was that part of the con?
God speed my arse, I didn't think Jesus was a fraudster.

That A500HD was sold on ebay a few days ago.  But I have another, has that 3.2 gig hd (only 2.1 is recognized though!), 2.04 roms.

BoingBoss: The AdIDE works GREAT.  I like it because its compact and it just is pretty cool to have a internal 2.5" hd in a A500.

TjLaZer: I hooked up a LED to the AdIDE interface.  I *might* do the floppy LED thing but I dont know...kinda want to put a thin LED throgh the 500's case.


Cyberus: How odd.  I'm having the same problem w/that guy.  I bought 2 AdIDE interfaces not going through ebay and it worked.. he has ALOT of Amiga hardware..so I offered to buy more, so I bought 2 A500's (untested) and 1 A540 ram expansion all for $72 shipped.  Have not recieved them in 1 month.  (If you look at my acct on ebay you'll see I bought 'spam' which is acutally the Amiga stuff.  That way he can get another ebay feedback and so could I).   Also, a friend of mine here in San Antonio bought a AdIDE and has not recieved it either.   I have  filed a complaint w/Paypal to get my money back but I'd rather have the hardware.  I've even called the # he has listed with ebay but nobody answers, it just goes to a mailbox.

Hi TheMagicM,
I arranged a buy-it-now with him, for A LOT of stuff, called 'spam2' - I noticed your transaction in his feedback profile actually. Another user on here had a similar problem, I believe it was someone who's actually posted on this thread. I have done the first stages of fraud complaint with ebay - I'll contact PayPal soon as well. Like you though, I'd rather have the goods.
I'm glad you tried phoning him - ebay's autogenerated response says that I should get his contact details and phone him, but I don't fancy phoning the US!
Please let me know if you hear anything.

Regards

PM me his phone and name details and I will call him for you.

[Cyberus]

Hi Acill,
Are you sure? That's extremely kind of you. I have done the contact details request thingy on ebay, I'm just waiting for the details to be emailed to me. The only thing is, TheMagicM said he tried to contact him by telephone, to no avail...

Regards

[TheMagicM]

Yep..I call at all times of the day.. heck, let me call now, again.

I called on your behalf of you (I mentiond your spam2 auction) and left a message.  As always, nobody answered.
I have also emailed 2 of his auction winners for his contact info.


You want his #

One day I wish someone locally or in Texas would try to rip me off, that would be a good day.

Woah..hold yer horses... looks like I found his phone # other then the one listed above..I called and nobody answered..I'll call later on today to see if its really him, if it is I will post it. LOL
Anyone have his complete address?

Thanks for trying

lol @ "One day I wish someone locally or in Texas would try to rip me off, that would be a good day."

[Cyberus]

Perhaps he didn't know what he was letting himself in for when he ripped us off - the wrath of a whole international bunch of amigans... :lol:

[TheMagicM]

It just gets me pissed off.  Why do that anyway??  I mean, I'm guilty of shipping items a little late (although its been a while since I've done that) but I've never NOT shipped something.   I'm almost positive this new # is his.  I threw away the box he sent the AdIDE interfaces in so I dont know his street address.  We'll find him.

[EzdineG]

Are you guys speaking of maxxdoo?

Item number: 5114646008

My own personal-about-to-file-fraud-with-ebay experience.  The shipping amount alone warrants action.

[TheMagicM]

Yes, that is the guy.

[Cyberus]

Yep, that's the one.

What do you mean about the shipping costs?
This?

YOU MUST ADD $ 95.00 TO THE SHIPPING COSTS.

I say we nail the {bleep}er

[EzdineG]

Wow..  Time to get Visa on the horn i'd say.

[TjLaZer]

Hey all I got my items yesterday from Maxxdo.  A AdIDE2 and Novia kit.  I had to email him on one of his current items to get a response.  Maybe he shipped it out to you guys at the same time?

[TheMagicM]

I've emailed him direct and through ebay about 5 times with no response.
