Bad deal with baja1

[toyrunner]

I bought a transmission and transfer case from Jared, AKA, thebaja1 (http://www.myspace.com/thebaja1).
I called him to verify this was a good running transmission. He said it was so I went from Ventura to Colton to finalize the deal.
I saw the transfer case had rust on the shift rails and the trans was dirty in the shifter base since the shifters were left off outside. I only needed the tranny and figured since there was oil in it, I could clean it out and install it.
When I go to separating the two, the trans was full of oil, some bearing particles and sand, and the t-case had water in it, although only about 6oz.
I pm'd Jared a couple times and got no response.
I called him and left a message and this is what I got back:

I feel you knew I was wanting a good running trans and there was no real reason to not believe this was. I know there was sand in there, it is pretty easy to clean that out. The rebuild necessary to make this good isn't easy/cheap.
I just wanted to let you know about this. I now need to get another trans for my rig as this one is useless.

Danny,
the tranny came out of a running truck, i pupped it out 2 or 3 days before i gave it to you. the only reason it was parked was the frame rusted out near the front mounts of the rear springs, so i dont really know what to tell you, and i dont know what your after, you already talked me down when you picked it up. i've sold other parts to other people and they have had no problems with their stuff


Jared,
This trans is worthless. Good for a core is all. I have three people that were with me that watched the water run out of the transfer case. There was oil in the trans. After draining that, I saw the bearing parts in the bottom of the trans.
If this came out of a running truck, why is it so rusty inside the tcase where the shifter was?
What I am after is a good transmission. I don't want anything else except for what I asked for in the beginning.
I asked for a lower price because I always barter prices on a used part. I saw that this was not represented as you had said.
I would like to give this back to you and move on. It is the first time that I have had an issue with a deal on Pirate4x4. I have been on the BBS for 7 years and made hundreds of transactions along the way as well.

You say that others have not had problems with deals between you, what would you do if there were discrepancies? Just walk away?
I wouldn't. All I am asking is that the right thing be done here.
Thanks



Danny
well between the price of a core for the t-case and tranny, is less than you payed



So here I am with what was allegedly a good trans and the seller saying I got a good deal on a core. WTH is wrong with this.? Am I missing something here?
Am I wrong wanting to reverse this deal now since I didn't get what I was paying for? Hell, I already have a good core. Why would I want two? :mad3:
I put this b4 the PBB to see where I stand.
Danny

edit;
If this is such a deal, why don't you take it back? I wanted a good trans, you knew that. This is not a good trans.
As far as I am concerned, the contract that we made, was for a good transmission to be sold to me. We talked about that when I called you. This transmission doesn't match that "meeting of the minds" that we came to.
Basic contract law states that the essentials of a contract are; "parties are competent to contract, a proper subject matter, consideration,mutuality of agreement, and mutuality of obligation" 286 N.W. 844, 846; "a transaction involving two or more individuals whereby each becomes obligated to each other, with reciprocal rights to demand performance of what is promised by each respectively." 282P. 2d 1084, 1088.
The total legal obligation which results from the parties' agreement as affected by law." U.C.C 1-210 (11) Types of contracts included;
Oral contract
One which is not in writing or which is not signed by the parties; "within the statute of frauds [it] is a real existing contract which lacks only the formal requirement of a memorandum [signed by the party to be charged] to render it enforceable in litigation". 84 N.E. 2d 466, 467

I am not done with this. I will pursue it to all ends.
Thanks
Danny

hes got a good point saying that its still worth it for the core :shaking:
i would be:mad3:

I am thinking baja1wenzel here

[rickibrat2]

guess it depends on what you paid

you appeared to drive all that distance to pay him and pick it up
why did you not heck it before you paid cash

[toyrunner]

I paid for a working transmission, not a core!
I paid $160 for the setup down from $200.00 asking price. How do you check a trans for bearing issues at the side of the road/in a parking lot?
He gave me his word/said it was a good transmission.
I guess I trust people too much :shaking:

It sucks that the trans is bad. Maybe Jared can post up his side of the story. It doesn't sound like he was trying to rip anyone off based on his comments, it's just one of those things that happens on used parts sometimes. Anyway, probably the best solution would be for both of you to compromise a little. A top shift case is worth $100, so if the trans is junk maybe you guys meet in the middle and he gives you back $60. So in essence you got a top shift case for $100 and a free tranny core for your trouble. I think that would be a fair deal. Just my .02.

I already have a tranny core! I wanted a good transmission and this tcase is worth $50.00 to Marlin, maybe. It was full of water!

[j2005]

that sucks it is starting to get to the point where you cant trust and or rely an any one any more

i converted my rig to propane and i found a guy in town that said he had a tank for my truck and it has been two months since he said he was picking it up
and on another note i had a local company (Vilas motor works) rebuild my toy 3.0 v6 and when i got it back and finally installed...it leaked so much that it would lose a quart of oil in a day and a half.
so long story short...
be carefull you never know

[krb]

Just because "it" was from a running vehicle doesnt mean that it is good.
Sounds like "it" was thrashed somewhere along the line.
Now with evidence of bad bearings/bushings,sand and water you would think the seller knew what condition this stuff was in!
If he is honest,I think he should work it out with you IMO.

[fj40forlife]

Hey Danny was this trans for the runner ?

Eric

[toyrunner]

Hey Danny was this trans for the runner ?

Eric
Yes it is. How ya doing? Are you going to Calico this weekend? We are. Going to be a small city!
Danny

[fj40forlife]

Im doing well thanks for asking. I dont think so, Rig is down just need to put the case back in and do a trac bar. if you in need for a tran, my buddy may have one laying arould.

Eric

[toyrunner]

I may be interested. PM me details, please. It needs to be a W56-A or W56-B top shift.
No cores, please :laughing:

[GloNDark]

I think there is a lesson to be learned here. If a deal is too good to be true...it probably is. :(

Sounds like he didn't know the condition of the trans as stated. And you put your trust in that. Shitty situation for sure. :(

When I called him to ask about the condition, he assured me it was good. I drove two hours one way to get it. I sure the heck wasn't going to drive that far without asking the questions one normally asks.
He sure as heck isn't very forthcoming here. I will be pursuing this in court.

[coolcruiserfj40]

mr d why you bumping his zuki?

[toyrunner]

mr d why you bumping his zuki?

Just getting my sig in there.
Caution on this seller!

[fenderbmxer86]

Kinda surprised about Jared doing this.

I was talking to him for awile about trying to arrange a pickup for his sami but it never worked out.

He went from keepin his sami on the front page at all times to checking in once a day. :confused:

[toyrunner]

I don't like doing this ad campaign I am on. I already lost, hoping no one else does.
He no longer responds to anything I have sent him.

Oh I agree he isn't steppin up now. But seems like he assured you it was good, without really knowing. Bummer there are people out there like this. :(

Quote from thebaja1;
"run your mouth on here but be sure to look for me this weekend in calico!! peace out pussy!!"

So this is a good response to the bad deal that he gave me :laughing:
I hope he doesn't do all his deals like this
All I want is to reverse the deal and he says I am a CON !
Why don't you just give me my $$ back and take your junk?

[JeepManEd]

I have worked wrecking yards for several years....when it was possible to test an auto tranny, we would check it out as much as possible before selling it as good....we always pulled the pan and drained the oil for inspection. If there were pieces in there, it was a core. If the fluid was not burnt it was sold as a good used trans. If the vehicle was wrecked to where the trans could not be tested, we assumed (after checking fluid, and pulling pan) that it was good. It was sold as good used trans. If the person buying the trans was not happy, or the trans was installed and not working, it was replaced (our guarentee) or refunded. As for labor, that was a chance the mechanic had to assume. Reputation was a key for mechanics to trust us, and buy our parts. Baja should take the tranny back, since there were circumstances not known by either party. Sellers need to spend the extra time to check their product before offering it to buyers willing to spend hard earned money. Buyers need to make sure they check areas of the part that may effect its performance....if it is not possible, because of time, place or neccesity, be prepared to get burnt once in a while. Hope you guys can work this out.

The latest from this tool;
"what is bearing residue? i find it hard to belive, use the trans as a core, and what about the t-case? missed you at calico i was in both canyons both days, anyways, it's yours, you got a hell of a deal anyways i dont want your tranny, i dont have a toyota anymore"


So I guess if I want to sell something to someone and I don't have a vehicle that the part comes from anymore, it is O.K. to describe it in such a way someone will want it and then refuse to honor that description?
This is a fraudulent and deceitful practice and this asshat should be banned for this! And to top it off, he wants to get rough with me for calling it as it is. :mad3:

Yeah, some people are all brawn and no brains.
I say bring it on if that is all you have. Just don't wonder at the consequences of the action you took :rolleyes:
I think if Jared really wanted to see me, he would have been where everyone else was at 9AM, at the event registration instead of some canyon

[BKinzey]

Couple of things I see.

First, you are in the right.

You say you drove to Colton? If you file in small claims you'll have to file in whatever County Colton is.

Catch more flies with honey than vinegar. IMHO your first two messages to him were good. You jumped in on the third. If this guy is sketchy you've given him a "reason" now to stop talking to you. It's hard to deal with asshats but calling them an asshat only makes it harder.:shaking:

If you do go to small claims they won't care if you already have a core. I don't think your drive will gain anything either. You may not get the whole $160.

So you have 2 trips to Colton, to file & court date, that won't be re-embursed and you could be awarded the difference between price paid & core value.

So figure out what that is and if it's worth it to you. If you do go to court take the parts with you. Take only pics inside but if you win the whole $160 you can give him the stuff there and ask the court for a witness. He on the other hand will have time to pay you. If he doesn't, it's another trip to Colton and you may not get payment anyway.

[Backncardr]

The small claims court may give you the award (decision)-but they do NOT collect it for you, although the papers for garnishment of wages would have to be filed through the court following the stay of the judgement.

[thebaja1]

first of all i drove from barstow to colton, he knew the truck was parked for a year but still ran, and the only reason it was parked was the frame rusted out at the rear spring perches, i pulled the combo out 3 days before i took it to him, he started getting hasty and beligerent, i gave him the opertunity to say his peace in calico ( he told me he was going and its in my back yard )
I sold some stuff to a guy named rick in havasu, i drove the stuff two weeks be for he got it he said some parts were bad so we agreed on a compensation, and as far as i know he was happy,
i just dont care for people who call saying i owe them or they want to haunt all my posts, as far as im concerned thats bullshit, and ''toyrunner"i'm not goung to tell you where i live after the threating phone calls we had, i would have met you in calico because there were a lot of people around. if you want to discuss it further leave me a pm

First off, I never threatened you on the phone. I asked for you to return the $$ and I would give you back your junk.
You drove from Barstow to Colton cuz ya work there at the train yard :shaking:
I was never belligerent and hasty with you when we did the transaction. If that was the case, why did you continue to deal with my "rudeness"?
You PM me and call me a pussy and then tell me to watch out in Calico for you. I was there for the cleanup, not to negotiate with you. There is a time and place for that.
I have PM'd you to no avail. Offer me a reason to PM you again

Where's the original thread? I seem to recall it saying "was pulled from a running truck" not "100% perfect transmission".

Still a shitty situation, that everyone is making even worse.

Cool! So used parts sold on pbb require 100% moneyback ger-un-tee? This place blows now:barf:

Feel free to not use the FREE classifieds if you feel that some FREE buyer protection is not your style. No one if forcing you to sell here. But we are saying that if you are going to sell here you had better be honest and up front with your descriptions.

And if you are not, and try and rip people off you won't be selling here anymore.

Pretty simple really. Honest people stay. The dishonest ones join the band.

[thebaja1]

well half is what i'll do

[ocjpr]

well half is what i'll do

Scammer. You've branded yourself and you'll never be able to sell again. That must suck.

[loveshackle]

baja - you're a fucktard. Probably dump your trash on the trail and sit in the grocery store parking lot with your shitty music at full blast.

At least that's what people think of you from the way you present yourself here. Dumb move.

Toy - Take the $$. I'm sure the mods are watching and will handle this issue permanently.

That's my .002 cents.

[MattS]

well half is what i'll do

So you are pretty much admitting fault then. Nice. You give him 1/2 is $$$ back and he still needs to find a working transmission. If he wanted to buy a broken transmission for 1/2 I'm sure he would have been looking for a broken one. He needs a WORKING one.

Just refund his $$$ and he can give your trans back. Then you can try and sell it BROKEN for whatever that will bring.

[thebaja1]

no, i'm not admitting guilt!!!, it came out of a running truck. everything anybody else got off that truck, excluding the frame was good. the tranny was going into my 82 toy, but since i got rid of the truck i no longer needed the set up so i sold it. So, i will agree to half, and i told him i no longer need the set up back. if that will work then great, if not then:flipoff2: from this point good luck getting anything, and that is my final answer

If your convinced you sold a good running trans why would you hesitate to refund him all his investment, and simply resell this elsewhere...not here obviously. You still get your full asking price.

Sounds like he's asking to be banned to me.

What part of, they guy DOES NOT NEED OR WANT a junk core transmission is so hard to understand. :shaking: Of course he doesn't want to give a refund. He doesn't think he will be able to get rid of it after he gets it back. :shaking:

well then ban me and go fuck your selves, there are other ways around the world of wheeling with out dealing with a bunch of crybabys. it came out of a running truck no warrenty, toyrunner, you are a :rainbow: :crybaby2:most parts are good and few are bad, has anyone else seen the inside of the tranny? i mean open it up and find the bad bearing missing pieces? didnt think so, and i am perfectly aware of carma, give what you get, later on PUNK!!!

He says on his myspace (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=71074402) page he is a Christian. Probably doesn't even know what that is.
More of a con man and petty thief:flipoff2: :flipoff2: :flipoff2:
Anyone know his last name so I can file on him. I know where he works so I can serve him and attach a lien on his payroll.
Bummer he wasn't as stand up of a guy as he has portrayed himself.
I hope this is a permanent ban on his IP
I'm out the money and need to find another trans on top of that. I wish I could have afforded to go see Marlin in the beginning.
This hurts as I was laid off from work due to the housing market bust.

You must sue in the right county. If you file your claim in the wrong county, the court will dismiss the claim. Ventura County is the proper place to file if:

The defendant or the business involved is located in Ventura County.

The damage or accident happened in Ventura County.

The contract was signed or carried out in Ventura County.

For a retail installment account or sales contract or a motor vehicle finance sale: The buyer lives in or signed the contract in Ventura County.

Or, the buyer lived in Ventura County at the time the contract was entered into.


So I am filing against Jared Louis thebaja1@hotmail.com on Monday. He needs to come to Ventura to answer this warrant of debt. I told him I was not going to let it go. :laughing:
Thanks for all the support on this matter! I surely do appreciate it.

thanks for changing my thread matt s.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Glad I gave these guys 20 bucks for a red star, they just change your thread when they want....If they dont like what you have to say.

[NOODLES]

how can you pull the drain plug and assume it bad? I would have pulled them apart before comdemning them. I have seen plenty of metal come out of toyota 5 speeds and had no noise or problems with them. if the truck was a wheeler, people forget to change fluids after river crossings all the time. of course the shifters are going to rust, because if it sits any amount of time, the water seperates and goes down, but the steam formed while driving does up.


I wouldn't give anymoney back on a I pulled the drain plug and figured it was bad.
I see no reason to get butthurt about a little metal that probably will not hurt the unit for at least the next few years. you bought used working parts. as far as you know it does work. you can't tell by pulling a plug. you may have 7 yrs on this bbs, but I have 10 working for transission shops and dealing with toyotas.

Btw I do not know either of you, this is not supposed to help one more than the other, but I feel you're unprofessional opinion may hurt the way people deal with you. I am sure next time you post a wanted ad somebody is going to think twice about helping you out. because the used parts are "used" and not "brand new" condition.

don't you think if you wwere looking for a 100% reliable for 10+ yr trans, you would look into a factory reman, and not on a website for less than core value? I pull 6oz of water out of my t-case after every fordyce run.
how much for the "good trans"? and would you deliver? :flipoff2: I Have paid 150 for really junk w-56's just for a good mainshaft and counter shaft. and davez gets 200 for his cores.

I think you got away good for 160, and I bet the trans and t-case work.

[toyrunner]

I have said several times in this post "I saw parts of bearings through the shifter hole,in the bottom of the transmission". I don't want to pull it apart til this is done, IF I keep it.
This raised a red flag to me. I have bought several used items off this board and not had any troubles.
Danny

[NOODLES]

I would run it, then figure it out. how hard is it to actually put it in and see? I know I can swap one in less than an hour. I bet this is all premature. Put it in and then bitch about it if it don't work. Or bring the trans to me, I can tell you whats wrong with it, or I can put the trans in for you.
I can't believe trying to get money back from someone withpout actually testing the unit. what do you need $160 bucks for? it is a gawd damn used trans, did he say he pulled the unit apart and rebuilt it, or did he say, he drove it and it worked fine. put it in the truck.

I'll bring it to you it to check out if you pay fuel.:laughing:
I actually thought the transmission was good from his description of it til I saw bearing parts in the transmission.
I'd like to see you do a trans r&R in under an hour. That is pretty fast there :cool2:
I must be slow cuz it takes me at least 3 hours to change a clutch without benefit of a lift.
Not trying to beat this dead horse. Just thinking you don't really have all the facts down.

Must be nice!
I have been working on toys for years and know a fair amount. I don't do it for a living per se, some side work and mostly hobby. Keeping the rig running stuff.
I could do it in my sleep, just don't want to take the time to do it twice.
I'll see what happens in the next month and go from there.
Thanks for the post :smokin:

first of all i drove from barstow to colton, he knew the truck was parked for a year but still ran, and the only reason it was parked was the frame rusted out at the rear spring perches, i pulled the combo out 3 days before i took it to him, he started getting hasty and beligerent, i gave him the opertunity to say his peace in calico ( he told me he was going and its in my back yard )
I sold some stuff to a guy named rick in havasu, i drove the stuff two weeks be for he got it he said some parts were bad so we agreed on a compensation, and as far as i know he was happy,
i just dont care for people who call saying i owe them or they want to haunt all my posts, as far as im concerned thats bullshit, and ''toyrunner"i'm not goung to tell you where i live after the threating phone calls we had, i would have met you in calico because there were a lot of people around. if you want to discuss it further leave me a pm


Well, I am Rick, in Havasu. Baja1 sold me some parts for a samurai namely; a 4 to 1 t case and two axles, with detroits. All opperable, and useable. These were a gift to my wife for her Sammi, so I never haggled price and agreed on a rush decision and meeting place to get it done. I showed, he showed and we transfered parts. I am an extremely trusting person and just paid for the stuff w/out checking anything. Long story short the front had a lockrite, the rear was welded and had a broke axle, the Tcase was as described. I was pissed, but I was understanding that something may have happened. I simply sent a PM saying we had a problem.

When I spoke with Baja1 he said, "that was what he was told when he bought it." So he bought back the rear end, minus the third that I had already installed, plus he had it delivered to a place near me pretty much on my terms!:smokin:

I know I over payed for my parts, but I made haste in my decision due to circumstance. It turned my gift into a serious pain in the ass, but alot of the blame was on my own trusting nature, I knew it was used stuff.
As a gift the wife was stoked, Baja1 made it right by me and I have moved on. Basically I would buy from Baja1 again, but I would just have a whole lot more in the way of conversation/confirmation.

Now back too your feud,:(
Easy Rick.

[TLittle]

Let's keep this on topic here people.

[toyrunner]

i am perfectly aware of carma, give what you get, later on PUNK!!!

Jared,
It's Karma, and you get what you give
Didn't they teach you that in Bible School?
Anytime you want to get together to deal with this, call me. I am sure you still have my number.

[toyrunner]

TTT
Posted in bad sellers thread

[toyrunner]

Hey Jared,
I know you still read this.
You are a complete crook and to call yourself a Christian is abhorrent to the religion.
You fully are a crook and I know you will get your "carma" as you call it.
Karma will kick you in the ASS :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

[toyrunner]

I have seen that this guy has been on the board still. I figured the only way to get a response, since he stopped responding when hew got band, was to get a little nasty. It worked and here is what he says;

what a wothless fuck you are Danny, dragging a guy throug your dumb
shit,
coming to calico any time soon? let me know, we still never squared
away on
our deal punk, so if you want to run your mouth, just remember karma is
a
bitch just like you

Now, tell me why, when I was the one that was given the short end here, he still wants to "beat me up"?
Guess I will go to "Calico" and see what is on his mind.
Maybe I will get compensated for the bad stuff I received from him. :confused:

[IslanderXJ]

If you see him in calico just beat his ass unconcious and pull his trans and t-case while he's out and leave him the one he sold you...

[toyrunner]

thebaja1 told me he would take care of this around the 25th of May.

get back ahold of me around the 25th, am i back on pirate?

We'll see what happens here and I will aprise all that are following this.

The 25th is less than an hour away and the suspense is still killing me. Maybe its a bad dream and I will wake up in the morning and this will all be over.



Please,

[NOODLES]

so did the trans work or not. did you ever put it in the truck?

[toyrunner]

so did the trans work or not. did you ever put it in the truck?

No, I bought a good one locally. I don't have the time to do it twice. He implied he would take care of the matter.
I really wish I had the time and place to take it apart to see what is wrong/why there is metal in it.
I don't want to do that on the other hand, he could say I did the damage.
Catch 22

[toyrunner]

The 25th is less than an hour away and the suspense is still killing me. Maybe its a bad dream and I will wake up in the morning and this will all be over.



Please,

No reply from Jared.
I am not surprised at all. Given the level of honesty he has displayed to date, he gets a big zero!
Have a good life Mr. Jared Louis, the scammer of the PBB :mad3:

[Easy Rick]

This is very unfortunate.

Rick.

This is very unfortunate.

????????

it's $160 deal
even if he was going to give you 100% of your $ back, & I don't think he is..........he can't come up with less then $200 & drop it in the mail for another 2 months?
damn!...........I can't see him having any job at all then:laughing::laughing:

I would have refunded your $ & told ya to toss the trans in the trash:)

[toyrunner]

He claims to make $60-$75k a year on his myspace (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=71074402) page.

Must be a crack head. I don't make that much and would still be able to refund that :shaking:
Shows his true colors here with this shit.

[breakjeepparts]

he just bought a house and he seems to be able to afford a set of labels...:shaking:

Is that his 4Runner? Maybe I should get the trans from that and call it even :flipoff2:

[odin544]

id just take the whole fucking thing. you gotta add in the interest, and cost of all the bullshit, ya know, collection costs:D:laughing:

[toyrunner]

BTTT
Still no resolve, he did say look him up in August:spam:

[Ragged_ol_86]

Wow. I thought this shit was resolved long ago. Good luck cuz.

[toyrunner]

So the scumbag didn't uphold his end of the deal, again. Why did I think he would.
JARED LOUIS IS A CROOK
He claims to make $60,000 to $70,000 a year in his employment. Why does he need to rip me off for a lousy $160.00?
I think because his wife left him and took his balls with her! :laughing:
I'll keep his name in the limelight for anyone that wants to Google him.

Hope your wife gets more of your money than you can make.
No wonder she left your lying ass.
Happy Trails You Lying Thieving Pussy Bastard
Why can't people keep their word? At least give me another plausible lie!:mad3:
anyone who is on myspace (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=71074402) give him a FU

[NOODLES]

are you located anywhere near palmdale i would buy the trans and t-case from you for the $160.

[toyrunner]

are you located anywhere near palmdale i would buy the trans and t-case from you for the $160.

I am in Ventura. I could bring it to Palmdale and drop a door off to childsplay at the same time.
I am in Moab, Utah right now and won't be back until the 20th.
When would be good for you?
Danny

[NOODLES]

let me. know i have a buddy that has a dad in palmdale. I am sure I could pay pal him, or get my friend to take care of it. I had some stuff come up today I have to buy a toyota tomorrow or monday and some parts for the galaxie then i will be in a position to send money down to palmdale. so after the 20th would be fine.

[SCOTT RAIMER]

Lets go - I've got the drive down under 5 hours.

[toyrunner]

So this fag changes his Myspace page from "thebaja1" to "Jared" cuz all the publicity from this thread when ya Googled his old name.
Now to do the same with, JARED, the thief, conman, and liar and common criminal. All beware!
Looks like his boyfriend is getting it :laughing:

[gotmuddy]

I thought he didnt have a toyota anymore :confused:

[toyrunner]

BTT so this isn't lost.
Not only doesn't he have a Toyota anymore, he doesn't have any honor, either.

[toyrunner]

back to the top

[Easy Rick]

I truly feel for ya brotha. Not that this feeling does any good! Do some good and hook your brotha up! Make this dude come right. Please someone do something!

[toyrunner]

Thanks for the thoughts Rick.
It is funny how Mocha Mike's experience had Charlie Wenzel in sheer terror No one has really done anything to follow up like that here. Nothing was done except SanDiegoCJ band the dude. :confused:
I even asked for the PBB collective wrath to be brought upon this outright crook!
I'll just keep TTT this thread every couple weeks. :p

[toyrunner]

Thanksgiving Day bump!

[toyrunner]

End of 2007 bump
Jared Louis (http://www.myspace.com/thebaja1) is still a crooked scamming piece of work:mad3:
Go to his Myspace (http://www.myspace.com/thebaja1) page and let him know what you think, so all his friends are warned of his "business" tactics

[Slapahoe]

I didnt read this whole thing, but have you tried PMing MattS? He's the guy who brings the bad guys into the spotlight.

[toyrunner]

New Years Eve bump for the crook:laughing:

MattS is aware of this and there is nothing more that can be done PBB wise.
I'll just keep this out in the open as a warning to others.
Happy New Years all!

[ADD]

[toyrunner]

his new myspace name (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=71074402)

Should be "The Real Mr.Crooked Jared Louis"
Just thought I would update this again:D

[W8ng4msrgt]

New Years Eve bump for the crook:laughing:
