Beacause then I can go pick it up. For the same reason you said. Newbie. Been burned before. Like to pick it up. Thanks.

TeenyCAR · 10-24-2006, 07:46 AM

Sent him money this morning. It's sold.

hope you didn't get burned..........people are far to quick & willing to jump on a "DEAL"

bad seller section is full of proof, good luck

na83cj7 · 10-24-2006, 10:44 AM

Seabass is right on.

section525 · 10-24-2006, 11:16 AM

Maybe we can get everyone who sends money for the winch to post in here.

Although this guy may be legit, this exact same thing happened on another forum I crash. Guy came on selling a winch for cheap, about eleven billionty people jumped on it. Three guys send him money (not knowing the other two did), he cashed all the checks. No winch.

But like I said, this could be legit. If it is I apologize for wasting your flavor.

TeenyCAR · 10-24-2006, 07:14 PM

Your sentiments have crossed my mind as well. Yep, it's a gamble, but then again every now and again I figure it's worth it to restore my faith in humanity. We'll see, if he comes through, then at least I know there are still some people out there with integrity, if not I'm out a little money. I'll post up the results.

I do hope you get your winch, I really do
but I look at these adds just like known overseas scams, not blind faith in humans, you are educated, you know it could be as scam and still did it, so it's greed

no posting I was scammed if you get took, cause you knew better

TeenyCAR · 10-24-2006, 08:33 PM

If I get it I'll post a pic, if I don't I'll let everyone know I didn't. People should still know to be aware of such people right? Hey, it's only money.

ya but in your case, post in chit chat

hope it works out, I saw that and wanted it too, but not from an unknown.

section525 · 10-24-2006, 08:52 PM

He posted this for sale a month ago. Maybe find out why no one in that thread has it now?

he had it at $400 + shipping
these arte $529-550 shipped, so why would anyone pay $400 + shiping? shipping $50-100, so $450-500, likely why it did not sell.

Teeny did you bail on this deal?

I got two PMs from OLH 8:44PM yesterday and 12:31AM today saying it was mine if I send the money.

I asked for a name, phone and address that I could reach him at and got no response. At least with a good number I feel like I could hunt him down if needed. I've been burned before and paypal didn't do a damn thing.

My "wenzel-meter" is pegged right now...

Keep in mind that until proven otherwise (someone else comes forward who paid, or the winch never arrives), he hasn't done anythig wrong.

I did a search for his username & came up with this.
http://www.marineengine.com/cgi-bin/...itchettk-users

Which is making this sound fishy.
