    Just out of curiousity, isn't that the same pair he offered for FREE, just come pick them up?

    Good deal or no, from a Free offer to 120 dollars, that's quite a markup there.

    Ron you are intitled to your view, I just don't agree with it at all.

    This thread is ANOTHER warning to newbies (check the beginning of the thread) he is now using 3 id's here. And you still say give him a chance? Ron, wake up my man, Hoosier or not, he is liar and a cheat.

    I along with many here will not let him ease back in here and act like nothing happened.

    Ron my retarded comment was not aimed at you.

    Monarchy Audio SE100 Delux - mono power amps
    Sony DVP-NS999ES - SACD player
    ADS 1230 - Polk SDA 2B
    DIY Stereo Subwoofer towers w/(4) 12 drivers each
    Crown K1 - Subwoofer amp
    Outlaw ICBM - crossover
    Beringher BFD - sub eq

    Where is the remote? Where is the $%#$% remote!

    Ron,
    Not to start anything but I don't understand your views. Maybe I do, let me take a stab at it. You consider anything in these posts data only. No trust is required or expected. Beyond what you read at a given time you have no relationship whatsoever with any of it. Is this correct?

    That is a very smart way to keep from being a victim but it wont give you much pleasure either. I have long standing friendship with people who have not posted on this forum for years along with those who do. I would feel welcome in their homes if in the area. I have received great deals (Scotts amp was one of them) and would go out of my way to help them out if they really needed it. For example, it was nice to be able to send Russman (I think) money for flowers with no thought of him running off with it. That is a small amount but you know what I mean. Trustworthy is a really nice word. BTW, I don't know how to spell the word you had trouble with earlier either.

    As far as listening and feeling good about the sale, I felt that way with the amp. It does make a difference. That is partially why I gave up the speakers.

    Ron, Check out these 4 pages of posts of the same topic.

    http://clubpolk.polkaudio.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3990&highlight=word+of+caution

    For me it started almost 2 years ago. He was called on his behavior then and is being called on it now. It seems he hasn't changed his behavior at all nor has he learned from past experience. I stated at the beginning of these posts I would stand on the original deal with him, if he sent me the amp first, but no response. Does that show you character? It does me. Ted Bundy was a friendly personal guy, when he wasn't out commiting murder.

    Yes, they are the original set of M-10's offered for free. How many people get "free" speakers? Not too many.

    As far as madmax goes, he pretty much has me pegged on the "trust" factor. There is a very thin line between "trust" and "sucker" - I've found.

    This has got to be the most ignorant reason that I've ever heard for a defense.............I could rant on, but I think that's about as blatant as it gets.........

    Interesting post flason,
    I re-read it and was pretty surprised. You know almost everyone gave Scott the benifit of the doubt including myself and Hoosier and he already owed several of us for a few months at that time. How can you take advantage of that!

    MM, I too gave him the benefit of the doubt. Even when others were bashing, I felt sorry for him with his situation. But you can only get spat on so many times before you get out of the way. My last line in the post above wasn't comparing Scott to a murderer, although he will perceive it that way. My point is he has shown a consistent pattern of behavior that has no social conscience. We are adults here, for the most part, and are responsible for our behavior. If someone says or does something against the community, then the community will determine their own brand of justice, and Justice has been served!

    I didn't even notice the corelation (I know, I spelled it wrong). Everyone knows Scott is just misguided, nothing worse.

    "If someone says or does something against the community, then the community will determine their own brand of justice, and Justice has been served!"

    Sounds like the "Indiana Gathering" :D
    Lord I can't go back there...

    I left Scott my PayPal address but maybe he doesn't know how to use it. I'll send him a payment request once I get back to work.

    I think a very long, honest, and well thought out apology and explanation would help a bit.

    Man up Scott. If you want to be accepted, you have to at least put some effort into it.

    Jesus people..........without actually going back to count every single time that someone has tried to prod him on to apologize or whatever, I can think of at LEAST 15-20 times, all with no result. What the hell is wrong with you people that think it's ok for US to have to ask HIM to apologize? More often than not, he's actually been a total dick about peoples comments about this stuff, so how it is that "a well thought apology and explanation" would cut it is BEYOND me. (Not tryin to pick on you Phuz......several people have made this comment)

    This isn't about holding grudges as rskarvan mentioned. It's about righting wrongs and doing it without OTHER people having to bring it up. Skarvan, he hastn't posted here lately unless he's trying to sell something, which has been where people have been screwed by him. I'm content to have him stop trying to sell stuff here, and as an added bonus, his posts would stop alltogether.

    He's a dishonest, crooked thief that in my best guesses will hae every one of his posts run over just like this one has, and rightfully so. But hey........if he's a Hoosier, maybe he's ok afterall............:rolleyes:

    I have no paypal account never have. i guess the only thing i can say is i took advantage of the same people who got me into a higher level of audio. why i did what i did? i thought i could get away with it. but what really happens is you lose your friends
    like i have here. i have 700 a some odd post all but the last 50 or so have been fun to type. i have learned so much from all of you.
    and what i did is inexcusable. im not going to make anymore excuses for my stupididity. Iam really a nice guy if anyone new
    me. money can be replaced,but the friends you make along the way sometimes can't. you wanted the truth so here it is.

    Thats a start Scott. Being modest and honest *might* help you out in the long run. However if I were you I would never, never, EVER post anything else for sale around here at least and probably on audiogon, or the home theater forums or anywhere else.

    I don't see why you can't share experiences and continue on as a forum member, just don't be stupid (anymore). heh

    Well, I think repentance is a good first step. Pardon my skepticisim but actions speak louder than words. Fess up your obligations and right your wrongs, that would go a long way.

    If you want people to trust, that needs to be earned.

    Scott,
    You have been my friend all along. You just didn't know it. At this point I was starting to wonder though. You are not the only one with problems. I wanted to let you off the hook for the hundred quite some time ago but something in me just wont let that be. I feel that I am being used. Sorry about that but it is the way it is. I'm willing to let it go once you complete the deal with me. A hundred bucks: chicken feed, not something I care about. The action of you completing the deal is the only important thing to me. At least I won't feel like the gullible mark I probably am. It would be no different to me whether it was $10 or $10,000. As a matter of fact I was considering coming after it. That is over $100 in travel and whatever legal expenses I rack up. Not a profitable expedition by any means. I will send you a payment request which is easy for you.
    Thanks bud,
    Chuck

    You know,
    I've given this a little thought. Scott, I don't think you planned this. I think you started this whole thing because you were strapped. I don't think you calculated it the way you say. Whats up with that. It just doesn't make any sense. No sense at all. I don't think you are giving us the real story. I think you are making it up for some reason.
    ???????????

    I'll send you an easy means to pay anyway. Tell us what is really going on though. I know you are not that bad of a guy.

    Brett - Dude,
    I don't think you understand (though, I'm not calling you ignorant). You are probably just naive.
    Anyway, I am simply sticking by a fellow Hoosier.
    If that annoys you - so be it.
    The rest of the world will never understand Hoosiers.
    You guys are too busy springing forward and falling back to realize the common sense of simply not bothering to change your clock. Indiana has contributed greatly to the musical world.
    Hmmm. John Cougar Mellencamp, Michael Jackson, etc.
    Indiana has contributed to the political world... Dan Quayle.
    Scott is an Indiana creation. We acknowledge our responsibilities - even when we'd rather bury our head in the sand and forget that Quayle & M. Jackson are Hoosier natives.

    Ron is not dismissing Scott, and still sucking on his **** to a degree because he's live and local. Why burn that bridge, Ron can go pick HIS purchase up in person.

    Scott seems to think I am the reason he has no friends. Without friends what have you got? His friends in the forum is the most important thing to him right now. That is the reason for his threatening post. Well Scott, go for it.

    **** Scott, AND his lame **** defenders. Let's not forget, this is the same clown that came to his defense and gave him "3 out of 4 stars for integrity" when I tried to warn everybody the first time. Well **** Werner, what is 3 out of 4 stars for integrity? Does he have integrity 75% of the time? Nine months out of twelve? Eighteen hours a day? Just when do we know it's integrity time?

    The only thing I've seen from these two at this point, is an argument for driving AROUND Indiana, rather than through it. What a crock of ****.

    George,
    I think I also also argued he had integrity back then. Oh well. If he wants to come and do something to me there is little I can do about it until he gets here. I've lived through snipers and bombings recently and several years around some real bad asses, not much I could do about that either.
