Strapped

[biggerpatterson]

Sent him money for a scope mount in October. I have recieved nothing but empty words. He said he recived the money but never said when he sent the mount, if ever. I suggest FTF deals with this gentleman as I'm hearing this is not a first for him.

[SPEEDGUNNER]

Beware of dealings with Josh Myers (STRAPPED) of Pocono Pines, he is a liar and a thief. After one successful transaction with him back in the fall I entered into an agreement to purchase another item from him as well. To date I have received nothing but lip service from him, with constant lies and delaying tactics by asking for my contact info and telling me he has to "check with the PO", what a load of BS. Even when I mentioned the possibility of negative feedback he pretty much told me that "1 negative is hardly a beating".

I probably let this go on too long, but I actually felt bad for the guy because he was "supposedly" having some personal and family problems, brother in an accident, blah, blah, blah. Probably just more BS.

I have copies of all PM's back and forth if anyone is interested. Amount I am out is less than $50, but at this point it is the principle. This joker is still doing business on the boards, and I don't want to see other people get screwed.

BE VERY WARY WHEN DEALING WITH THIS INDIVIDUAL, no guarantee you will ever see your money or the item.

Join the group, He got me too. Only a little over $20. Not enought to make a trip to see him.

Not to be a bandwagon jumper but I never really cared enough to post before I saw this. It seems a pattern is being exposed and I am a victim as well.

I sent STRAPPED a $25 money order (at his insistance because he would not accept any other payment method) in October for a serpa holster.

Months and months went by, he responded to no more than 1 out of every 3 or 4 PMs, always with some explination or excuse and eventually I just gave up, it wasn't enough to lose any sleep over.

Thanks for positng. Buyer beware.

[elray]

he lied to me as well,claims he sent a mo for 25 bux.....i never got it.
when i left negitive feedback for him,he basicly told me he would come down
to see if i really had not got the mo and cashed it.it was a vauge threat.
the whole issue was bandwaggoned by a bunch of his buddies,making me out to be the bad guy...and to the best of my knowledge,the thread i started on him was moved to a feedback thread that was already in progress...
if this were any other forum,he would have been banned.

Due to the rash of recent negative feedback on Strapped, maybe one of the mods can take the "thumbs up" off of this thread.

[CHEMICAL]

my experience with him was 100% professional, and he hasn't been here since Jan. 17th or so, so it IS possible that something has happened...I think until the guy returns and is able to defend himself people should refrain from posting here, you've already posted your feedback, whether positive or negative, move on.

not a big sale,but i was selling the item for $20 ftf,and had asked for 5 extra

He sent me a site instant message on the 17th of sept
that a mo was sent.after a week or so,i sent a friendly reminder
asking him about the mo. he replies his brother had an accident,he will get back to me,then he said if it had no showed by monday the 28th,to let him know. now he says the mo was lost in the mail? when i asked for the mo sn#
i got no reply.(proof he sent it)
after several im's,and repeted attempts on my end at solving the situation
i have not been contacted by him since sunday october the 4th.
this member has shown me that he is not trustworthy,and that his word is suspect.
your milage may vary.
Strapped,thanks for nothing,and a lost sale.i removed them from my ad,and they are still still in the box i was going to send them in.you wasted my time.



I sent this dude a MO almost 3 weeks ago, I have alot on my plate and worrying about a $25 MO wasnt a priority.
This kids PM's borderline on harassment.
I will stop by the post office tomorrow on my way home to see about canceling it and getting a refund, if they tell me it's been cashed I will take a ride down to Pheonixville and knock on his door.

Strapped has no reason to screw you over.

Ease up on the guy bud

Thanks guys..


There are plenty of people on here who know me and have met me, and have done plenty of business with me. I don't care what Elray says or does, it's not going to change anyones mind about me. I'm not concerned.

Besides I have already received a warning over this crap for "threatening"..
If I post anymore on this subject I'm liable to get a time out for the shit I really want to say about this whole ordeal.
[/rant]



maybe now some opinions will change,since strapped dosent care.
oh,and btw,in this thred, 11 positives,4 negitives.
thats basicly a 1 in 3 chance he will burn you.
but hes a really nice fella...we should refrain from posting our dealings with him here....
right....
