warning about known scammers

Andy Wang sent rappes a refund.

He should have gotten a tracking number and insured his packages and accounted for this in his price. Now he is the one who loses out.

Rappes was unwise to use the Paypal friends and family option.

I try to warn people but they don't listen. Repeatedly. See the stickied posts tn this section.

If you have a transaction ongoing here check your email or log in here regularly. Everybody has smartphones now. There is no excuse not to do it. People who claim they are on vacation and couldn't see PMs sent from buyers are asking people to believe in unicorns.

Last month I checked PMs here regularly from a small town deep in the Andes mountains.

Personally, I don't know why he's still allowed on the forum at all.

I got scammed by HarmonicTT. first time I bought from him TB ALC, never received it and tracking he provided never show something. He said Post Office lost package and refunded money. Second time we traded blades. I shipped my blade and he received it long time ago. From tracking he provided I could see his package arrived to NY sorting center then wend back to HarmonicTT. He again blaming Post Office and says it was unavailable to deliver.

nobody will believe you twice shipped to me and twice something happen with your package at post office. I deal with many people on this forum, I had many orders from online stores. Never in 8 years I had something like this. I always received all packages was sent to me. If you won't pay for my blade I will make sure nobody in this forum will deal with you

I asked this but he doesn't want to

I received few PM's from people who had similar problems with Harmonic

This is starting to seem very odd from such a well-known member... multiple people at the same time.  Come on, Harmonic, get the blades shipped out and give people their tracking.  We all know people get busy, but your customers are starting to worry.

I think most important for a sale or trade here is that ， if you don't feel comfortable to deal with some one, then don't do any trade with him no matter how good the deal looks like. 

First of all there is pilgrim you and just zeon waiting on blades. Who are the soo called 4 people? I have no record of 4 blades sitting here besides the 2 I'm shipping today. I am using ups regardless of the cost because I am not going to be called a scammer. I will gladly leave and be gone but do not call me a scammer. I have made it right and even overnighted packages for mistakes beyond my control. I am using ups which is charging me 30 for a mere  5 Oz package to canada when usps charges 9.95. Zeon I am not using some slow poke mail which is why I'm trying to find the best option. Ups wants $55.99, usps wants $35 but I do not trust international post there. The Turkish post you sent me was a pain but nonetheless I am here to make things right. Sorry if I sound rude or arrogant but do not label me as a soo called scammer. If you want to deal with me that is up to you? Want me to send first? Sure then tell me politely or just don't deal with me at all. I've had plenty of deals and great sales on here along with trades. Once I am off working I will be printing you your label pilgrim. Again please do not lie about this. 4 people waiting on blades from me really?..  Show me proof and show me that I have sent them nothing or tracking of some sort. 

Yours yes not zeons his just came in...

Regarding HarmonicTT,

I still didn’t get no tracking no blade

Seriously, if you deal with a seller that has had several questionable transactions already, you are the one to blame.

This is my feeling too. Very childish behavior. I think should be rules in for sale section only allowed 18+

He admitted the weight was not accurate, along with some other excuses, and would like to right his wrong by sending additional funds. I thanked him for being an adult about the situation and gave him my amount. He agreed and promised to send me funds.  It's the 10th day and I've reached out to him twice, no response. He's very immature in correspondence. So I reached out using the e-mail which is connected to the PayPal account, his father's (assuming that's not also a lie). If nothing ever happens, I'll leave it up to the karma to set things right.
