: No parts from Ebay seller

I bought some spindles on ebay and after over a month I haven't received them. My money has already been received. Now the seller is not returning my emails and his phone number is disconnected.

I was wondering if anyone has any info on:

Jason Merry
50 Market Street
South Portland, Maine 04106
PMB 223

BIG BOGGIN OFFROAD FABRICATION
453 Gorham Road
Scarborough, Maine 04074
(207) 580-1753

That is all the info I have on him.

One of my emails was answered about 2 weeks ago. It was from a Janet Salvo (an employee I assume) and she said Jason was in the hospital but the parts would be sent out by an employee. I've gotten nothing so far.



Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

I dealt with this guy on ebay before also. I bought a 14 bolt open carrier from him. I got it no problems after about 2 weeks or so. It took him a while to return my emails but said he was out of town. Shortly after that he shipped it to me. Thats all the info I have about that guy.

I just forwarded this to a friend of mine who is a stand up guy in Portland. I'll let you know when I hear back from him, but it might not be until Monday

Report this to ebay and pay pal (or who ever you paid with) it is a federal crime and they take it very seriously. You will get your $$ or merchandise just search the ebay site for fraud advise.http://pages.ebay.com/help/community/insurance.html

I've never heard of that shop, but then again I don't get down that way often (and certainly not for shop type stuff).

Posting this on NEOW may help you with info.

I am in that area, and would be glad to help if I can.

Let me know if you need somone to go find this guy and ask him whats up first hand.

I would contact ebay, and if they cant help, I would contact the postal inspector.

DId you send a money order? Check? What?

Sounds liek fraud issue if they indeed did stiff you.
Contact the South Portland, adn Scarborough police about it too.

Like I said I can go check out those addresses and see if they guy is there and see whats up.
Thats about all I can do legally. ;)

Email me directly if you'd like my contact info.

I only get mean if I have to. ;)

Odd how there is no listing for his "Fabrication" Business, and the number is now discoed.

Probably really is in the hospital...

Maybe he is in the hospital from a previous bad internet deal.

I am also here to help, I work in Portland and Bath and do not mind looking him up. Never heard of his "fabrication company" though, it's probably partly in his garage and partly in his mind. Maybe myself, Preach, MJ, Charly and some others can pay him a "visit" and see what's up. He probably just forgot though, Mainers are pretty forgetful...must be in the water.

I heard back from my friend Damon, he is willing to help. His contact info is Damon Gentile at damonfg@yahoo.com.

The name sounds familiar, but I can't really lock on it.
Just shot an email to a cpl of my local wheeling buds.

I cant post to POR as I um unregistered but please post
back for the fella to conatact me and i'll give a hand.
I'm in S.Portland now, and a weak stones throw to Sacarboro.

As to Big Boggin, I've never heard of the shop but I have
seen a blue full size with that decal on it. In fact I think
I drive home on the gorham road but dont recall seeing anything
like a fab shop. I'll check a map for the exact location and
eyeball it tonight.

Will do what I can,
