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

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 would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
