Tried to phone him? PM "im late" from perth i know he flew over to him in brissy and picked up his brake kit from him.

Good luck man! hope you get this sorted.

Hey.

Sorry to hear.

I did some googling.

He also goes by the tags of TYGER and PP_082.

This is his ebay account.. it might lead you somewhere, you could get his home/postal address pretty easily. http://myworld.ebay.com.my/pp_082/

If you google his mobile number it seems he has been at it for awhile, selling numerous different cars and parts.

Did you bank deposit him the 6k and he never sent you the stuff?

no he has told me im not allowed to have the gearbox anymore as i wanted to pick it up in person and this was not acceptable to him.I was only allowed to buy it if i put the $12000 in his account and then he would send it ???????.He has now told me he has "deemed" the contract void even though i will do anything to get my gearbox,and he has awarded himself my $6000 as "costs".His exact words i have 123 text messages from him in my phone.

Thats it

i bought a head($1500) of him ages ago, i felt like i was getting ripped at one point but it was all good, he just doesnt keep in contact.. mercury motorsport knows him well i think and was a middle man for myself and Ben.

i tried to get him on the phone numerous times and he wouldnt answer, but after i spoke to the fella at mercurys all was good.

hope it works out man.

Is that not enough proof for the cops? Well i am kinda new with this whole car thing but what gear box would cost 12k?

trust 6 speed sequential ,and the NSW cops wont have anything to with it as he is QID so i have to fly up to make a report.

Sorry to hear man,Hope it is just a misunderstanding and you get your box or your cash.

Find out from others who have had dealings with this guy where he is etc, Take a few days off work,Fly up there and Tap this guy. I hate these conartists ripping honest people off

hey mate im coming up to sydney in a few weeks.

and if you find where he lives wait for me and we will go find him

i hate f**kers like that, i would just love to hit one.

[MercuryMotorsport]

Have you paid entire 12k for the gearbox? Why would he send you a gearbox if you haven't paid for it? I have had many successful dealings with 555kkk and I am sure that he is not ripping you off. Sounds like there is more to this story than you are letting on!

mercuryimports under wat circumstances does that farknut have the right to say hes going to keep gtr30beast's 6 grand as costs? costs for what? for sending messages?

If he is not happy with how the transaction is happening, he should have the farkn decency to refund the guy his 6k. says alot bout a workshop when they condone such scams.

hope you get your money back buddy.
