Piston Slapper Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 And the intelligent element of Volvospeed reveals itself. Deimos you've been around long enough but maybe you don't spend enough time on the forum to know that the patterns are pretty obvious. There have been other members who got themselves in trouble because of very similar behavior. Just because your transactions have gone well doesn't mean the OP should be satisfied to wait 3-4 weeks now for Okoye to deliver. If the messages sent by Okoye as indicated by the OP were actually the excuses offered then something stinks. We tend to have a low tolerance for selling laziness and failure to deliver in a timely manner. So Adam is right to threaten the ban hammer. No, I'm aware of the problems we've had with sellers/vendors in the past. But, this post doesn't look like a legitimate complaint to me, more like a flame at him. If it was, the OP would have been happy to explain everything in great detail... but he hasn't. Looks like he's the one with something to hide.

Scootdiggity Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 You cant determine a seller on past sales. You can read the threads through the years where longtime sellers who had a good standing just flip and decide to screw people hence stylinmotors etc and even my run in I had a few months ago with robert blair who used new screen names after being perma banned. I have said this numerous times when these threads come up if you got somebody's money it is your duty to ship the items out, dont sell if you are going to procrastinate and never ship and then get mad at buyer for getting pissed off when he doesnt have his item he needs for his car. If the shoe was on the other foot okoye you would be pissed because you could have saved yourself the headache if you would have just shipped what you responded to him that you had for sale and this thread would have never existed. Also I see you have posted as having items in other want ads so if you can take the time to respond to those ads you could have taken the time to ship the item, period.

Piston Slapper Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 LOL When that's all the OP can say when asked for an explanation... there's no need to bring out the hammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootdiggity Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 You dont need communication unless their is an issue as someone stated your communication ends when you agree to price and send payment, the only other communication needed is if the seller cannot ship item which he was advertising or their is something wrong after recieving item. we dont need details and okoye has never provided a tracking number in response like a responsible seller would do to put an end to this thread.

Or the buyer screwed up payment... that happens too. Or they leave off a digit, see if they can get a good deal.Just saying there's no reason to snap to any judgement with ZERO details on the situation. And since the OP is the one accusing okoye of whatever... you'd think he'd be forthcoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burn-E Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 What more details do you need Deimos? OP states: payment sent, walks through all the responses he's received from Okoye (briefly) which seem to acknowledge payment received (why else would he say he would "ship it tomorrow"?). Which leaves us with the situation here. Payment sent, no parts received. If I'm missing something Okoye feel free to correct me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oreo931 Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Also, I don't see any need to throw around ban threats when the OP hasn't provided a detailed account of what happened after being requested to do so and responding with "LOL" nor providing any proof what so ever he actually paid okoye. Maybe he didn't pay the right amount? Who knows, he won't tell us. Or the buyer screwed up payment... that happens too. Or they leave off a digit, see if they can get a good deal. Just saying there's no reason to snap to any judgement with ZERO details on the situation. And since the OP is the one accusing okoye of whatever... you'd think he'd be forthcoming. You're fucking stupid. Plain and simple. Well I wouldn't be bumping if I had gotten the parts, would I? I never received anything, and regarding the silly "failure to communicate" comment, you agree on a price, you send the payment, and normally you receive a shipment a few days later. So there is not really much communication necessary. My inquiries about the shipment received as answers "have been busy", "shipping out tomorrow", "sorting out issues with the bank", etc., but still, nothing received up to this day.

Piston Slapper Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 I'm the fvcking stupid one for saying that "LOL" is not a credible response when asked for details? Ya, that makes total sense. Great mature attitude from the moderator. From what I read of okoye's posts, the OP wasn't responding to his PMs and there was an issue which he apparently wanted to stick his head in the sand about. But you want to ignore that side of this... that's fine, whatever, ban him. so what are you bumping. for? you said don't respond back to your messages. you're a joke. because once again you chose not to respond to my messages i even sent you a message saying i guess you don't like to check your messages. I have seen plenty of legitimate complaints about sellers, and in every legitimate case the buyer is forthcoming with every last detail of every exchange with the seller, payment details, etc. This post has pretty much nothing of the sort. IF, and I stress the word IF, this turns out to be a legitimate issue, then yes, a ban would be in order. But without someone more concrete than banana's 'i got scammed, bump, LOL' there's no need.

Fudge_Brownie Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Are you seriously that stupid? Adam is not planning on banning anyone. If he (and others) find that Okoye isn't going to send his stuff, then yes, he's gone. But that's an IF. So, based on your logic, IF you, deimos, don't send someone something they paid for, and I find evidence supporting that they paid for it, and that you never shipped, I'll ban you. Now you can go tell everyone I'm planning on banning you based on your twisted version of the story. Neither the buyer or the seller is being very publicly informative. You are forming some pretty interesting opinions considering you also said Just saying there's no reason to snap to any judgement with ZERO details on the situation. But you also said And since the OP is the one accusing okoye of whatever... you'd think he'd be forthcoming. My bet is it was already shipped at this point. I've dealt with Okoye before, he can be a little slow sometimes, but is a decent guy and isn't out to scam anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okoye Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 i'm sorry but how am i supposed to communicate with a buyer that responds in the way he does? you've seen his strange responses when trying to speak to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Tuna Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 If both of you would just list the events of this sh*t show transaction, it would stop other people, having nothing to do with, to stop hypothetically guessing what happened lolol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are forming some pretty interesting opinions considering you also said But you also said All I was saying was that he was very quick to come out with this ultimatum towards okoye: Okoye, refund his money or ship his parts. Otherwise your account will be perm banned. Unless you're missing his address there shouldn't be anything to communicate about. Without any details or proof the payment was kosher. I didn't say he was planning or plotting or conspiring so don't put words in my mouth. And there are not any contradictions in those quotes of me... so I really don't know what you're getting at or reading into there. First one is a no-brainer that some of you seem to have missed, second states the OP's behavior in the thread is fishy (which it is), and the third is me simply stating I have dealt with okoye in the past without incident. No judgements there. But please, keep the insults coming. I guess you don't have anything better to do than make something out of nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty Moo Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 None of this shit makes any sense...but whatever. This isn't 1989 anymore. Shipping is easy is shit these days. Somebody pays by paypal, you figure out how much the shit weighs and print a label straight from paypal at a discounted rate. Buyer gets a tracking number automatically, and either USPS or UPS will pick up said shit right at your door if you don't want to drop it off. Don't have boxes? There are dumpsters full of them behind every strip mall in the world, small boxes are free at the post office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burn-E Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 It's like we're in 3rd Grade or something...no I take that back, my 3rd grader has more sense than this. It's like Pre-School. The two of you are beyond obtuse. Did he or did he not pay you? Did you or did you not ship the parts Okoye? If you don't want to do business with him then send his money back via paypal and be done with it. I've just put both of you on my personal do not do business with in the future list.
