Last month I answered this ad, and negotiated a fair price via PM for this laptop.

As you can see, he even updated the thread as being sold.

I sent the check, it cleared on 11/26. Here is a copy of it directly from my Bank of America website.

[QUOTE=Trail_Toy86]yeah. I'm also going to wipe it out and set it up as it would come from Dell. MINUS all the extra crap they throw on their which you don't need.. unless you want AOL stuff , and other stuff like that.

[QUOTE=kf4amu]Just to make things clear, your giving me all accessories included with the laptop new correct? Battery, power supply, and whatever else it has?

Key phrase being "I'll keep you updated"

Last PM I received from him was 12/7/2004

hey! gonna send it out this week. Hope you figure everything out.



It is now 12/19 Sunday, no laptop, no answer to any subsequent PM's sent to him. He has disappeared with my 425 dollars.
I notice he has not posted on the BB either since this ad he posted, however he has 113 posts since he joined in Jan 2003. Does anybody know this guy? Anybody in Kansas area know this guy?

This is the info I have on him...

Any way a mod can get personal information to help my lawyer proceed legally?

Thanks for any help guys, I'm a poor college student and I either A need my money back or B...the laptop.

That pretty much sucks....I have found that half on the p.b.b. are full of b.s or are really knowledgable decent people.Bump for your luck,someone knows this guy and i hope it all works out.

PM a mod:)

you ever resole this?

BTT is this resolved?

Sorry to respond so late.

Yes it was resolved, after contacting his parents multiple times, threatening, and relentlessly calling and harassing him.

The laptop actually came well packaged in great condition.
