and with the amount of bad tradings that go on on this site i thought maybe there would have been a moderator who specificly deals with these situations. maybe its something to look into now.

but im 100% with u get your money back one way or another 4k isnt a joke multiplied by how many other people are involved.

And for that stupid comment, warning issued.

it was a general comment.. not directed at anyone in particular and i'm sure theres been more than this said on here which mods havn't picked up but hey thanks for that >_<

Welcome to the club CJ !!

Charles & Steve Tison from JDM Imports have screwed heaps of people for thousands of $'s in the last 6 months on SAU & NS !! ( and I'm one of them ). You better get some legal help fast or kiss your $'s goodbye !!

With ALL SINCERITY & RESPECT !! SAU moderators, here's yet another example of why I'm asking you to ban JDM Imports and put them on the Bad Trader's List.

If you want to speak to those who've been screwed, I'll list all the logon names I know of.

Scott, pm me as much information as you have and I will add him to the bad traders list.

i sent Prank and Blitz both PM's regarding the matter nearly a week before i posted these threads.. i know they are busy, but being admin/moderators i would have hoped they would have been online within a week and maybe replyd to me even just to say they will look into it and what i should do...

looks like il be losing my job in 2.5weeks anyway. so yah for me...

I have replied to you previously via pm - it seems you may not have received the message though.

Moderators have monitored this situation and advised each member that has been ripped off or is concerned to make a final attempt to contact Charles and failing that, report the issue to the police.

We have neglected to physically ban him for the moment as doing so would remove the ability for affected users to pm Charles and as such on the off chance that Charles would log in, this is an avenue that we wanted to keep available to try and help the chances of those members who have been stung and hopefully assist in their chances of getting the money back.

So how can people go about taking legal action to get these sorts of issues sorted out?

Is it just like a tribunal you go to? Small claim thing? or do you just go speak to a barrister or something and take it from there?

Has anyone been through this shit before?

I've merged both threads, no need for two in 24 hours.

Stryder, dont play Admins against each other. I for one dont appreciate it.

You told me that you couldnt get in contact with anyone else. Finding out this is not the case does not help your case regardless of where you stand.

Take Blitz's advice above. Although JDMimports hasnt logged in since Jan '07.

Thanks

In a situation like this you would probably go to the CTTT (read up on the Dept of Fair Trading website).

Thats true.. every state has their own tribunal thingo... Victoria has VCAT

If you can take legal action against them they will pay... unless they claim bankruptcy then they claim they have no assets..

Stuff like this really sux... i can see why they've done a runner... not to just people on forums but people buying direct from their websites too... imagine... $4k one person, 3K another... 1 here and 2 there... by the time they know it they have 20+K... so they do a runner... online traders have that advantage unfortunatly

what do you mean? i sent a msg to one admin, after a little while with no reply and me getting a tad impatent (as i think you could understand) i moved to the next admin, then after a few more days with no replys i sent one to you asking you if my PM service was working correctly. im not bloody trying to play admins against each other?? and i dont quite understand how you come to conclude i was doing so? im confused on that part...

ok, well no i didnt get any reply to my PM that i sent you, but as i said to ash when i first sent him a PM i was asking if my PM service was working correctly... can you please forward your reply to me again??

i have tried every way to contact him that im able to do from here...

both him and steve's mobile numbers i have called, i been calling the fax number, i have sent emails through the 'general enquires' email address, i have sent emails to the 'sales' email address, and even charles's own email address and PM'ing him on here....

when all of those failed over a period of 4-5days i started talking up. and now have asked if anyone in the area of his supposed work shop can check if he is home or whats the go.

I think the general concensus is Collect all your reciepts of proof of purchase, take a copy of there advertisment, contact the bank of possible defraudulent activity and give them sellers bank account details, Give these forwarding details to the police as well they should be able to help. Also after that contact Office of fair trading and notify them of what happened reciepts and details. Then you may also be able to lodge it with the small claims tribunal to recieve money back.

There ya go there is the response, there is no need to get others that may have had a down fall with this trader as it will pose no use, The benefit if you have these people is all individually file what happen to the police and will end in the police getting more involved.

And all in all hope you get your money back

Cheers

Adam

CJ sorry to hear it buddy! This is garbage and not really something you like to see from SAU Traders (not blaming SAU in any fashion). Mate if you have there address it may almost be worth making the trip to go see them personally. I know I would. Its easy to avoid phone calls and emails but not so easy to avoid a face to face confrontation.

Heck if theres enough of you, you could organise a group to go see him along with Today Tonight.

If you havent already I wouldnt be sending a letter of intent to his email and mailing address, and if you get no reply then you may have no choice to but seek legal aid. Its not cheap I know, but you may have a chance of recovering your hard earned dollars.

All else fails sell the debt to some bikies. :closedeyes:

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
