Do not post here.

This is an information thread only, not an invitation to vent frustrations or take shots at the latest target of opportunity. I created this thread to alert RR members about Ken Meyers, a.k.a. Kenchoco and how he stole $100 from me.

Ken stole $100 from me last year by selling a Tamiya 4wd truck twice. He advertised the truck, accepted my payment and then sold it to another RR member. It has been a constant hassle trying to get my money back a few dollars at a time. He continues to lie and stonewall me about how he has no money, on hard times, it must’ve gotten lost in the mail, Houston TX was iced over to badly he couldn’t get to the post office, etc., etc., etc. I have 126 PM’s and there have been at least eight threads filled with his deceit. He is truly a person to be avoided when buying and selling R/C equipment. My intentions are to alert new members about Ken’s theft and to keep his name in the public light until he returns all of my money. To date, he has returned $80 of the original $100.

Multiple threads have been opened and every single one of them has been closed down because somebody with a grudge starts writing obscene, vulgar, or threatening comments towards Ken.

Make no mistake, I despise Ken for stealing from me but these responses are just insane. Some members were recently encouraging him to commit suicide and one nutcase even suggested racial terrorism by placing a burning cross on his front lawn! A burning cross for $20 owed on a bad R/C deal? What the hell is wrong with you people?!?! You should be ashamed of yourself.

I have had to apologize to Mark Ryder twice now for posts that he had to close due to vulgar content, I don’t want to have to keep doing this. Please do not post here – at all. Especially not you, Ken. View it, laugh at it, cry over it, whatever you want but please do not post here. I will keep the thread updated with any and all developments as they happen. Thank you.

Nothing yet. Saturday’s mail was devoid of Ken’s promise that he had sent the money last Friday.

I would like to clarify the reasons for this post. Some people have encouraged me to let it go, that it’s not worth the effort. One generous person who is sick of seeing this on-going BS offered to send me the cash out of his own pocket if I would drop the whole thing. While I appreciate the generous offer, I cannot accept it.

My old Gunnery Sergeant told me once (just before nearly getting us killed) that you have to stand for something or you will fall for everything. He was an idiot but his philosophy was smart. I really like this website and I wouldn’t be the pilot I am today without it and the people who populate it, so I want to do my part in protecting it.

This is not the Circus Maximus. I am not trying to needlessly bash Ken or provide the public with some voyeuristic entertainment. I simply want to keep it in the public eye as long as it takes to get a full refund of what he owes and prevent him from doing it to someone new.

If we let Ken slide, then the problem will never go away. Kenchoco, David Yates, Heliman13, Kirijas, Dunedinflyer and a dozen other scammers will continue to spoil what we love about this site.

Jon,

I know you do not want me to post here but I want to keep this alive as I have not heard any news, good or bad for awhile.

Have you received the funds from Ken yet?

Ken told me in his last PM that he sent it to the wrong address and it came back to him; this was after he confirmed the correct address two weeks ago.

Hi jrvander

i wnat to make i sent it to the correct address...can u verify your adress?





I sure am glad I don't live in Houston; their postal system must really suck! They regularly lose all of Ken's packages, can't provide tracking info, close up shop when the weather gets icy (what ever happened to "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds"?), and send letters to the wrong addresses, even after the address has been confirmed! Plus, it regularly takes them a week or more to deliver a letter that only requires 2-3 days anywhere else in the U.S. Man, what a dysfunctional post office they must have!

Another week gone by and still nothing...

Please do not post here - Please nicely.

If Ken sent the money last Saturday it must've gotten lost in the mail again - that darned unreliable postal system strikes again!

Ken, all this will go away if you just stop lying and stalling and make good on your debt and send the money. That's all it takes, just send the $20 and be done with it.

Again, please do not post here. If only works to provide Ken with entertainment when everybody starts bashing him at whim.
