If anyone in VEGAS sees this heli post it and call las vegas pd

wow, that's painful. I've been completely turned off from dealing with ANYONE on RR that I don't know personally, or with in driving distance so that I can see what I'm buying before I agree to take it.

There has been waaaaay too many of these scammer topics lately. Its a real shame it has to be this way. This hobby used to be all upstanding great people 15 years ago. Now that the hobby has become more accessible and popular its drawn more and more low lifes. A shame.

That does really suck. This is also why I will never do trades unless I personally know who I am dealing with, or can meet them in person. There's just too many places where you can get ripped off with a trade, it seems like there's more people on here who post about problems they have in trades than with regular sales.

Good luck, hopefully you'll see your Rappy again.

Ya

I've called The pd we will see what they can do but I'm from old school teaching that you put the word out to every one you can with a reward for the person who find what your looking for and the person responsable and you will get better results.

Man, what the hell is going on lately here on RR?? Got people running scams right and left, theft, others threating to go to homes and "kick their ass", just all kinds of crazy stuff. Man, what is going on??

I hope you get your heli back, that is a damn shame. Good luck!

Call your local cops, call his local cops and call the postmaster, it could be mail fraud, a federal offense.

Sorry to hear of your loss...it hurts no doubt. After looking at this thread I did a search for "oneinverted1" and found out that he or she has a user profile not filled out completely...registered the day of listing the want ad and had a post count of zero prior to the listing. His total post count now stands at 2.
Above all else, even if this was a legitimate deal, the above facts should have been a red flag hard to over come and entice anyone in to a trade. Without known, creditable references to call on the trade should have not taken place.
These are facts that are easily over looked in lieu of other info like phone numbers and mail addresses.
Sometimes it's easy to over look the obvious and get caught up in other thoughts. It is also easy to point out all the things that should have been done once a deal goes bad like this one.
Escrow is the only way to guarantee a deal. Short of using escrow, maybe if we had a check list of things to research prior to entering into a deal it would lessen the chances of getting ripped off. The check list would be a reminder of things to look for and things to verify before shipping.
A lot of times if you just go back and read thru a members posts you can gather valuable info. The audit trail tells a lot sometimes.
I have been ripped off like many others here on RR and had I followed my own advice it may have been prevented.
Good luck in searching and I hope your model turns up somewhere.
