just wondering what i should do. here's the deal.

i sold my nad amp to a member here for half down and he would pay the other half in two weeks. we did the deal in person and i've sold to him before so i gave him the benifit of the doubt and trusted him (MY MISTAKE). it's been a few months and no word from him.first i got excuses then nothing the last two months won't even return e-mails and he has my home number too. so should i out him here on the board so others don't get screwed. i want to be nice but hate getting robbed.let me know what you all think.thanks.

    Do you know where he live? If so might be time to pay a friendly visit. Use this experience as a wake up call. Trust no one.

    I would warn him that you intend on letting forum members know about this transaction via a pm or something, then give him a week or ten days to clear the matter. If he fails to do so.... then do what You gotta do man

    i've sent him a pm here today so we'll see what he has to say if anything. if i don't here from him here then i'll post a thread stating who he is and city he lives in. i'll give him a week or so and then oh'well if it hits the fan then so be it. i just want everybody to know HE has ripped me off and may do the same to others. thanks for your opinions.

    Warn him for what? This guy is a dead beat. Should't take that long just to respond. There's a better way for this dead beat to say he doesn't have the money.

    I'd give him a day or so to reply to the message you sent him today...and if no response still? Then you bust him out to the rest of us, so no one else get's screwed by him. That's not how business should be done.

    Just be assured though, that if he doesn't own up to his end of the deal, karma will come back to bite him in the ****, and no one else on this board will ever do business with him.

    I would think that anybody that has been on forum for even a short while knows how we look out for each other and I'm sure he knows what happens next. Even if he's in a bad way he should say so and at least that way you know he will own up as soon as things get better or he should at least give the item back for a refund due to bad times which I'm sure we would all understand.
