    This guy is local to me and is always at the yard hoarding every e30 part for resale. Pretty sure he's not a scammer

      He's stolen from members in the past. If you want to do business with him do so at your own risk.

        That thread is hit or miss it looks like. Half the people got screwed and the other half got exceptional service...Not defending or recommending the guy. I'm just saying he's not in his grandmas basement writing emails to members as the prince of Nigeria, he's actually out there at the yards stripping and hoarding all e30 parts for resale. I and a few friends have small stuff from him before but were local so there wasn't much risk of douchebaggery

          Nah, hit or miss isn't ignoring PM's from moderators attempting to reconcile a situation. Hit or miss is far from acceptable practice in business.

          He'll never get a penny of my money. I'd advise other members take their money elsewhere.

            Another possible scammer

            This new user (trustedseller59) replied to 34 different WTB threads on Jan 23rd and suspiciously happens to have the exact item the person is looking for in every thread. What are the odds? ha ha

              I sent this to Agent yesterday as a heads up. Basically he's copy / pasting the same message for all WTB threads and just pasting in the title of each thread into his post.

              Username is a dead give away for a scammer too. Reminded me of the @notapoliceman twitter page, haha.

                I see he has now been Banned, and branded as a Scammer.
