LMFAO!!!!!!

The links came all the way back to this thread. I wonder if he got the point? I hope so.

I managed to trade the charger he sent me instead of the money he owed me . I traded it with 5irc (thanks again) for a nice CNC tail case which is pretty sweet. That is one nice tail case. At least the charger worked, unlike the major component of the heli 007 sent me.

I had to throw a new engine in the helicopter I got from him (I've a total of 1 1/2 gallons of fuel in it since the trade, 1 of those gallons went into breaking in the new hyper I had to buy, the 1/2 went into trying to tune the so called "awesome running" engine which turned out to be blown) . Oh well....

I'm over it. Unless someone provokes me again (imsofaman). lol

By the way.....if a fellow member offers a trade but he wants you to you ONLY to respond by a PM. Get a clue guys....he is hiding something! If he does not others to read what guys are respoding to....that is just shady. How can you trust a guy like that?

Just want to warn you. Be careful.

Ron,
Thanks for apologizing to some of us. For me....it was just the common courtesy of letting me know you were going to trade with somebody else. I wasted time and long distance phone calls and had high hopes that I would actually get the Raptor 50 for my Corona. You had said that mine was the best one so far. To me...that was a green light. I thought I had it all wrapped up and had my hopes up. I even started packing it! So.....when I heard nothing else from you...yes I was upset. Then I had my heli buddy in my ear saying, "I told you so!" because you backed out of the same exact deal with him for a Corona two years ago.

Many others have problems with you. We are going back like two or three years. Just remember that heli guys are not so large that you are lost in the mix. We remember you! We talk about you in meetings and at the field and we have never met you. That sir...is pretty sad. Your reputation right now is not so good.

In a "NUT shell".....if you strike up a deal with a guy....don’t back out. If you have contacted more than one guy telling everyone you will do the trade and then back out and go with a whole different trade for a different item.....that is just wrong.

Ron....we are not stupid out here in hobby land! We have been wheeling and dealing for years. We know how to search and research who is bad at making the deals. Those of us here on Runryder know of you and try to stay away from you to be honest.

I am not trying to cruel or mean. I am being straight forward and honest with you the best I know how. All of this can be fixed on YOUR end of the computer by being better at communicating with others in deals....even if you change you mind in the middle of it. If so, have the courtesy to email everyone you have contacted.

If you went out on five service calls during your day....every customer had "changed his mind" before you had arrived.....how would that make you feel? You had traveled miles and miles all day and got nothing for it except aggrevation. That is how we feel about you. Think about how others view you and how you have reacted in business transactions.

That's all I have to say. I hope you can understand where all of us are coming from. Communicate better and stick to your guns and we may deal with in the future.

Ron,

It is good to see you come on here and appologize. Like imsofaman said, this is a small and tight knit community, and everyone and I mean everyone hears and sees all. And to back him up on the rest of his last post, I went to my club and explained what I went through with the deal I had with you and do you know what the response was? 007? Ron I live in Canada and people up here even know how you have been in many of your dealings.

Where I get PO is when I go out of my way to accomodate someone in good faith and end up with the short end of the stick. I bent over backwards just to make sure everything worked good for you. I bought the three servos from tower hobbies because you liked those ones, one of them was NFG so as you put in the warranty claim. I kept communicating with you to make sure they made it right! And I still followed up with you to make sure that you didn't run in to any problems in getting that servo and offered to deal with them if you did run in to problems.

Then, one of the lipos I had include in the trade failed, did I just tell you "oh, well". No, I made it right! I went out of my way again to hold up to my end of the deal. I went splits on a brand new Flight power lipo and I covered the shipping and duties! Just to make sure that when I say everything works perfect in the trade I made with you does work perfect. Then you have the nerve to tell make me wait a month and half for the money you owe me, I had to chase you down and in that time period after all the work I did to help you out, you have the nerve to go on vacation and not pay me, then yout get rid of the heli and all the stuff I send you and made $500 from it and you still don't pay me, THEN you have the nerve to send me a lipo charger instead of the money! And the final straw is the engine in the heli I got from you didn't even last for 1/2 a gallon of fuel! It's funny because I step up to the plate when you had a problem with my product, I didn't ignore you or tell you "oh well".



F*ck I have to take a break or my computers going to end up on the floor!!!!!!

Ron.....get a clue....you are really PO'ing a lot of guys off. If I were you....you should make things "RIGHT" for Marc. I had no idea how badly you took advantage of him. That is just plain wrong! And for you to say "i never screwed anyone out of any money." is insult to injury. No wonder Marc is upset. Do the right thing Ron.

Ok, breathe deep, ahhhhhhh.


Now that I'm a little calmer and have spoken to you behind "closed doors" Ron, I hope you now understand this isn't a smear campaign against you, more or less a wake up and smell the coffee sort of thing.

We all try to help others for the most part in here. And trust me, it takes a lot to let go of some items in a trade and to trust the other person isn't going to screw you in the process. Just from the response of some of the guys to this thread I am obviously not the only guy who had a problem. So in essence re-evaluate the way you deal with people on here and maybe you can gain some trust back and a little respect at the same time. Sh!t happens.

Things happen, we get caught up in the moment of trading or dealing and then we want to change our mind because something else catches our eye. Ron....we understand, just think about the other guy...that's all.
