Don't think so. I have been concerned about whether or not we were jumping the gun in our assumptions and that maybe something bad happened, but HCloud13 noticed lots of internet activity from him without any indication of anything bad.

nothing special....just using google and his name and email....
as a general rule of thumb, assume everything you say or do will be seen or heard or recorded by someone.

Assuming anything I do is worthy of hearing or recording

From now on people should use escrow.com for transactions, especially ones which include large $ amounts or valuable parts. The only time I wouldn't is for small transactions, but even then. I think some people have been on here so long everyone is inclined to trust them. Just my .02. Wow, I just realized that I've been on here for over 3 years. :-)

This was for a parts swap.Originally Posted by H3_VX

I may be a pessimist but unfortunately as parts become even more scarce this trend is only likely to continue or increase. There's inherent risk when dealing in the VX parts "black market" from a variety of perspectives: theft, damage in shipment, poor parts description, etc. About a year ago I spent more $$$ than I care to think about to get JDM rainguards, pedals, and mud flaps shipped from a junkyard in Australia back to the US. Turns out the rainguards broke in half while unpacking the box (no doubt they were brittle from 15 years of sun damage), the pedals came without mounting components, and the mud flaps were aftermarket. The guy was completely honest, but at the end of the day I'm out the same amount of money as if he hadn't shipped it at all.
Good luck guys, let's hope this is a big misunderstanding and/or that the guy comes to his senses and makes it right.

Oh one thing I thought might brighten your day Jon: we've discovered a new use for the rear door cargo box you built me, and it's to host picnics on the tailgate. I took the kids (4 and 2) to Chick-Fil-A last night while Mom was shopping, and I let them sit on the cargo area and eat their food off the fold down door you built. It's still working great today, and the kids think it's the coolest thing ever. I'll take a pic the next time we use it like that.

Well...time to start phase 2.
I can't believe I didn't get a response from anyone on his Facebook! I sent the same message to about 25 people.
Time to start making some phone calls...........this sucks man.

Thats really cool to hear. I thought about that box when I saw Ala5ka's overland VX picture.

he's had them over a week -_- changes nothing in his position of black out.

I completely agree. Clearly the post office was able to contact him to get payment so he must be on someones radar.
Anyone local that could just go see whats going on?
