Yeah paypal. They are useless so I am going to contact my CC company tomorrow. He told me the gyro/servo combo was new and I even asked him 3 times, but arrived broken and stripped from a crash.

Did-OOO! I bought a Predator, radio, 4 servoes and Gyro from him in Jan.2005 . Got most of what we agreed on. I am yet wating on a JR810 and 537 servo. It may still come, any day The canopy was kind of rough but the Predator was in good shape. As soon as I get my servoes I will put him on the good guy list. LOL

I wish I had found MR Gil's thread before I sent payment, but his forum name was misspelled so a search did not show up any bad dealings.

And I am sure channelwhip is the same guy.

Mr. Gil's thread - check the last post by littlepiston

And my thread
Tek's
http://runryder.com/helicopter/t165487p1/

They happen to both post on my thread and both pawned off broken gyro/servo combos.

Man that SUCKS, Tek, I hate to hear that you got burned, Well maybe the CC company, will get your money back for you, I have bought a couple of engines from Tek, and He is a GREAT GUY to deal with,, I just buought a 601/9251 combo ( no pic's but the guy assured me that, if I didn't like it for any reason, Just send it back and he would pay for shipping, 100% buy back, )
Well I hope that this LOSER will get off his A** and make this deal RIGHT!!!!!

How have you been John? Stop by our field anytime you are in Yukon.

I have not had any replies from him so I will just leave it to the CC company. I have always been able to get scammers even if I have to file with the attorneys office. A lot of people do not know the options and get burned over and over or just stop dealing online after the first time. There is always a way to get your money back and the crooks will get theirs one way or another.

I wish I would have read this before. Predator2004 just sold me an EVO 50 and kept the TJ Pro, a JR DS811, the carbon fiber base plate, and a few little miscellaneos parts that were all supposed to be included. I tried callin him, and talked to him, but he had to go and was going to call me back. I have sent several PM's and he has read them, but no response. It sounds like a common occurance with him.

I was lucky. When things were going sour I filed a claim with Paypal and luckily he had a bunch of $$ in there, and it froze his account. I was able to get a partial refund for parts that he can't find now , and the remaining parts are going out priority mail tomorrow with a delivery confirmation number. Then, once I receive everything I will cancel my complaint and it will unfreeze his account.

The funny thing is he said he cut one of the servo wires when he was getting ready to ship it, so he just took it out. Yet now he magically has another identical servo that isn't damaged, that for some reason he didn't replace the damaged one with prior to sending the package out?? The throttle jockey Pro got lost some how, so I got partial refund for that?? Instead of telling me it was lost (really he sold it to someone else in a different listing) prior to shipping it out, he just sends it out without it and never mentions it. He says he never even had a carbon fiber base plate for it, which he said is included in the listing. So he never had one, but said it had one in the listing??

I consider myself to be very lucky.

I guess, i'm in the minority here...I bought a Futaba 502/9253 package from him about the same time as the rest of you made your deals. I remember he listed a whole bunch of stuff all at once. My package arrived and all went well.

Sorry to hear about the other misfortunes.
