    Hi all, wasn't shure where to post this, I was just reading a thread about Evo_Ant not sending parts which he said he would, and then being owing money... I'm now in the same situation, I payed £570 for some rota gtrs, apparently the couriers lost them 2 weeks later, (had no delivery slip, record). Now I'm waiting for my noney back 5 weeks on, a check was put in but apparently the account in which it was payed from is now closed so things arent looking great. if anyone has any info please let me know!

    That is a wanker thin to do man, feel sorry for you as that's a total bump in my book. Find out where he lives and smash his face in with a brick... Or call the police

    I wondered why the evo ant thread was closed waiting for ant to give his side to the story, but his side of the story was never given......

    Contact the police. Tell them there are multiple people in the same situation.
    What a bag of shit.

    Why does nobody ever use Paypal. It doesn't matter how genuine they seem always use paypal because now you haven't got a leg to stand on really.

    Yeah but 90% of people go 'oh can you send it as a gift so i dont pay the charges' not realising that it gives them fuck all comeback.

    Hindsight's a wonderful thing, Evo_Ant seemed respectable enough - loads of posts, plenty of 'mates' on Driftworks so naturally you think 'cool ok'. Now he's disappeared with 1K from the guy who bought the SR20 and £600 from Ben.

    Who knows what else has been mis-sold or what? This isn't a thread to say 'oh well you should've done this - tough luck' any form of help would do or if anyone who knows him personally can find out why he's not responding other than the obvious.

    Where is he based? Anyone got an address?

    Someone local to him could go knock on his door and let him know this thread is here?

    2 Problems here:

    1. Untrustworthy theiving bastards

    2. Fucking half-wits that pay for anything by bank transfer, get a paypal account and use the 'goods' function, it's not beyond the wit of man, for the sake of £19.38, you will have safegaurded your purchase.

    Seriously, does no-one believe it will eve happen to them?
