Here is the guys main page - http://bmx-macneil.pinkbike.com/

I bought the powerbite crank off him, the balance rear wheel, the animal sprocket and some more parts, and he sent me old shitty Canadian tire BMX parts in the box.

He almost got me scammed for $80, but the lady at the post office found a way to return my COD.

Don't deal with him, I always leave messages under his buy and sell pictures that he is a scammer, but he deletes them.

Anyone else get scammed lately?

I already told the mod geezer yesterday because he is my friend, but the guy isn't banned yet, so I made this forum.



I picked it up, and went to the car and opened it, and it was a bunch of crap.

So I went back inside the post office and asked what I should do becuse I just got scammed.

She said that she can't do anything and canada post has nothing to do with that, so I went home to call customer service.

BUT, when I got home there was a message on my answering macking form the lady at the post office saying that she found a solution for my problem.

So I went back and she told me she realized she didn't put my money order through my computer yet.

Soo.. we packed it back up and marked it as refused package, return to sender. Also I got my money back.

And in the ens he will be out the $20 he paid for shipping and the $7 COD charge, and if he wants those shitty parts back, he will have to pay the shipping back to him. Smile

Only mods can see if users are suspended and banned. General users are unable to see what other user's profile status is. It simply isn't viewable by the public if they have been suspended or not. I am sure if you told him about it, he did something about it.

Wow! So now we are discriminating against French people because of one bad experience? Scammers exist everywhere not just in the UK or Quebec. You just have to make sure that who you deal with is a reputable person. Look in their buy sell for previous dealings and be alert!
