This guy hasn't been on here for about 2 months, after taking I'm not quite sure how many deposits he took. If the 49 people on there gave him a deposit, that's over $1700 he's taken people for a ride on.

Stupidly I paid a $35 deposit myself. All PM's haven't been replied to?

How do we chase it up, and or at least get this guy banned?

I posted him the steering rack out of my r32 gtr so that he could mock up the lock bars, in return he said he would give me a lock bar. Ive tried email, and looking up his "business" without any luck. Tried calling him a couple of times, but his service isnt hooked up.

relax guys, give him the benefit of the doubt. you only paid $35. Silent has been on the forums for a while, and posted some valuable information on painting etc. While, I don't know him and have nothign to do with him, it seems quite unlikely that he'd ruin his own name to scam you for some small amoutn of money like that. I read through the thread, and not that many people paid a deposit. maybe 10?

it's only $350 - hardly worth scamming you for that

this sucks. but I have to say. here we have a guy who has been on the forum for less than a year. looks to be a bit immature, has only 4 trader ratings and all are for him buying stuff and he only has a hotmail email account for contact. I don't think I'd send him my money.

Anyway, He hasn't been on-line for over a month, so I would say most likely he hasn't ripped you guys off, he is just not keeping up his end of the deal very well and is still overseas, or hasn't been able to get done what he promised, but most likely eventually he will come good.

If you feel you've been shafted (anyone that has paid money) then by all means use the trader feedback system. if you want him banned that can happen too, but be aware that if he's banned that limits your chances of getting your money back.

I am working with the Victorian police atm about another member who scammed somebody on here so if you feel like you have been shafted, call the cops and have a chat with them, I am happy to supply them with any info they require.

Oops i forgot his account details

Name : Daniel Humphrey

Bank : Westpac

BSB : 033080

ACC : 346933

If its any indication of his integrity, he spelled his name wrong in his profile;

Real Name: Danial Humphrey

This isn't really a major issue, just an annoying one: One of your business advertisers in the classified section refuses to answer calls, return sms, or respond to pms. So I left a "what's going on?" post in their supposedly uncut customer feedback section a couple of days ago, only to find that it has now disappeared. This strikes me as a very dishonest way of doing business, if they can just remove any customer feedback that doesn't paint them in a good light.

No money has changed hands yet, as they just don't respond....

    • If they can dyno them, get them dyno'd, make sure they're not leaking, and if they look okay on the dyno and are performing relatively well, put them in the car.   If they're leaking oil etc, and you feel so inclined, open them up yourself and see what you can do to fix it. The main thing you're trying to do is replace the parts that perish, like seals. You're not attempting to change the valving. You might even be able to find somewhere that has the Tein parts/rebuild kit if you dig hard.
    • Can you also make sure the invoices on the box (And none exist in the boxes) are below our import duty limits... I jest, there's nothing I need to actually purchase and order in. (Unless you can find me a rear diff carrier, brand new, for stupidly cheap, that is for a Toyota Landcruiser, HZJ105R GXL, 2000 year model...)  
    • Murphy strikes again! Nothing at all would have gone wrong if you had the tool kit in the car! You'd have just found the clamp loose the next time you went to touch it...
    • I have been being VERY quiet about what you're alluding to, as it is something that ticks me off... The number of cars from factory that run coil overs is HUGE! Most of them these days do... The other part that annoys me, is people saying "Well all the incabin adjustable suspension is illegal by blah blah blah"... If that's the case, then why can I buy a car brand new that can do it if, FULL STOP in cabin adjustable suspension is illegal...   Also, I could just chuck some aftermarket shocks in my car, throw the stock springs on, after my blue slip, dump my super low springs back in. Same shock and spring style setup... Hell, they could also be the same colour springs etc.     I'm voting, BlueSlipper didn't want to touch the above car for some reason. Whether it be some sort of bias against the car, the owner, them maybe having previously done dodgy shit and now they're being super careful in case they get slapped in the face by the Gumbyment again... Find a new blueslip place.   And can confirm as you had said, yes there are holy bibles of vehicle heights, and all sorts of other suspension stuff. Heck your run of the mill mechanic, and tyre shop has access to all of that stuff. It's how they do wheel alignments...
    • Funny story Heading to Sydney this morning on the HWY there was some slow traffic, so I gave it the beans and midway through my overtaking "power run" I lost all power It seems that I missed a hose clamp,  and the MAF and filter went WiFi To make this more problematic, the little tool kit that lives in the boot, is sitting in the sun room at Goulburn......LOL Luckily for me I found a bit of steel on the side of the road that could be used like a rusty and bent flat head screw driver to tighten it up enough that it got me into Sydney, it is now all tight like a tiger with the aid of a 8mm socket Note to self: Use my brain and double check stuff, and always keep that little tool kit in the car for when I have a brain fart
