warning: do not do business with Austin M

van_doorn wrote: No, Fatt wants to fix the situation, cause if we all bitch an moan about Austin it doesn't help anyone, so Fatt comes with a reasonable solution. I'm in for 2 bucks also! But Austin needs to get banned from this forum or atleast not being able to post things. because else i need to give a lot of people 2 bucks soon.

I agree with both Fatt and van_doom.   I think Austin should not be allowed to do any more deals until he's at least 18+.
I myself has a couple of bad deals on rubbers too, so I know exactly how cqluu feels, but I only buy used rubbers  for testing purpose, so it wasn't so bad...

Then the decision of the tester is final: Austin was a crook or all this vent is exagerated.Who wants to participate? who wants to be the tester?I put $2 in.Now let's the fun begin. while i applaud your altruistic motive, i wonder if such exploit undermine the integrity of the 'for sale' forum (and other forums). such exercise will only attract more disruptive and juvenile behavior which I (and I gather others too) frankly can do away with. it is unfair to burden other people with someone else's muddle - there is such a thing called 'responsibility.' and the sooner he realize this, the sooner he'll be better off (in this forum and in real life). with all due respect, of course.

Giving the buyer whom was wrongly treated in this case, money from other sources other than the seller....only promotes the ability and non-responsibility type attitude of the seller to keep doing it over and over again.  To do such would be total apathy to irresponsible behaviour. 

Austin,  you misrepresented the thickness of the rubber.  That alone should be more than enough reason for you to "boy-UP'  in this case and give a refund...no matter what you have to do to give the money back to the buyer.  

I vote ban austin for his huge role in bringing down this forum to a new super low level of existence!!!  This little scam he pulled off on cqluu should be more than enough to support such a move. It is ridiculousness how he has not been properly moderated on this site. He fills the forum with 99.9% useless spam posts, especially in the FS section. 

AUSTIN...THE FOR SALE SECTION IS NOT A CHATTING SECTION!!!  IF YOU HAVE NO MEANS TO ACTUALLY BUY SOMETHING OR TRADE WITH SOMEONE THAT FIRST OFFERS A TRADE POSSIBILITY...........STOP POSTING IN SUCH FS THREADS!!! 

i believe that this topic is ended i have sent through 20 dollars in the mail and i have already talked with moderators, i am no longer spamming (according to some moderators due to feedback of a certain moderator and other members on this forum.) so please stop verbally attacking me on a forum because you dont like something. It is bad enough that you are putting your nose into the buissness of cqluu and i. so incase you didnt read it MONEY HAS BEEN REFUNDED!

im not gonna argue over my beliefs nor my parents. please drop the situation it has been taken care of.

thankyou but i guess for no on i need to make a format that has no refunds in it no matter what and that it is the buyers responsiblity that they get all information that they need.

I am not saying not to do that but what information i give is what i have thought is enough if the buyer is a little unsure its their job to ask and then the responsiblity will be put on  me. if they dont ask it is not my fault that they are not satisfied with something that they could have avoided with photos and/or measurements.what i am told by other companies or sellers is not my fault for any misleading. For example, dandc  he made sure that i took pictures for him and measured the rubber. this will make sure that this is what he wants exactly or close to it. i stated that it had some sponge damage but still playable. so he asked me to take a picture and i did. he told me what he wants the picture of and i took it of this exactly. this is what a smart buyer does if he would be unhappy with it he would be able to know from photos. now it would be my complete fault if i had stated that the rubber is brand new and unopened and then sent him a cut rubber that had been used this would be my responsiblity to refund that buyers money. i am just a sales person trying to get some cash for items that i either want or need.

i have never entered a credit card in paypal so there is no source for them to take from.

whats that supposed to mean i have not posted nearly as much...and i think of what i say before saying it to be honest sometimes ill enter a topic to try and participate in helping and ill just click back on internet explorer cause i see that i can not contribute positivly.

moderators should start listening to me better. not too long ago I started a thread about having austin banned.... they didn't think that was necessary, and now look at what trouble he has caused. this issue isn't over yet and likewise, other issues are yet to be resolved. given austin's history with the postal system, lets hope that his refund is indeed recieved and lets find out what actuallly happened to that killerspin blade that he was sent for free testing.

so someone was kind enough to send austin a $120+ blade, but austin claims to not have recieved it (after commenting that he would keep it if he liked it). then he claimes his parents bought him the exact same blade new at his club. (same parents that won't buy him a bottle of rubber cement) he then sells that blade to another forum member advertising it as brand new, which it clearly was not.... hmmmm sounds like it was the blade that had previously been tested and not the one his parents bought for him that he refused to review or even take pictures of.

clearly austin doesn't believe in anything but pure greed and dishonesty (whether or not i'm correct about the killerspin situation)

do we really want this kind of filth on the forum????

i think not.
