    IMO if it wasn't a deal through the Club Polk FM then it should stay a private matter between the parties. I'm all for justice but I'm not sure a public "outing" on the forum is the right thing to do.

    Well, you're the guru, but I don't see why not. Whether or not the guy deserves to be treated respectfully after what he did is debatable (I would say not), but if he is a member here that means he could be doing business in the fleamarket and it's a good thing for everyone to know what kind of guy they are dealing with. It's a valid warning IMO.

    oh'well too late now. i had let this go for a long time figuring the holidays and all but i just wanted to let everybody know what he did so hopefully he can't scam anybody on here. i trust most people but it's smooth talkers like him that mess it up for everybody. so because of him i'm a little more cold and bitter. i try to give everybody i deal with a good deal.

    You should use this to collect the rest of the money and teach him some manners....sometimes you have to teach the manners first...then the money mysteriously shows up...funny how that always works . :D

    Oh, and dont forget to go update his member sales rating ...even if you ever get paid...that deserves a slam rating.

    Shack is right,, if this transaction did NOT occur thru the FM,, then is should be handled privately. Good luck,let us know how it eventually turns out.
    JC approves....he told me so. (F-1 nut)

    I must respond to this. The REAL reason I did not pay the remaining money to him is I also bought a pair of speakers from him...Polk 10s. When I bought them they had a tear in one of the woofers and I was told you did not even know it was there. Kinda hard to believe since I found it in 30 seconds of seeing the speakers. You said you would look for one to replace it and get back to me. Did you ever get back to me, NO!!!! You also have my email addy,you know I visit this site and phone number as well. I heard nothing.

    I did get an NAD amp not to long after getting the speakers from him and payed half up front and agreed to pay half later. I kinda felt dicked over on the woofer deal so as far as I was concerned until I got my woofer you were not getting your money. Guess this could have been resolved if EITHER of use had bothered to get in contact with the other. Now this is public so the gloves are off. When I get my woofer you said you would get to replace the bum one I will pay you the 60 bucks I owe. Until then we are on equal footing......you owe and I owe.
