You will guys probably just call me dumb and stuff like that. This guy had Made threads about wanting TC skis and I hare some, he was also selling surface blanks. I offered to trade and he said yes. We PM'd for about 10 days and I felt like I could trust him. I mailed my skis to him and it took about a week and a half for them to get there. I asked him if he got them and he hasn't responded for 12 days. I keep messaging him and I won't stop until i get my skis back. I can't believe some people on this planet. I told him that I was 14 and I really needed this skis but he doesn't seem to care. Super bummed.

Put his name and address/phone on here so we can put him on blast. That doesn't work, file a police report if you have his information.

I'm not phasing him... I pm'd subaruzu or whatever nd explained that it's in his best interest to send op the skis, I just don't think putting his address on here is the right solution.

there are tons of NSers in whistler that you could probably pay to go shake him up.

or call up the RCMP and they'll kick in his door with a horse

Then your last PM to the OP should have been "hey bro, I'll be out of town for the next 2 weeks. Is it cool if I get your package in the mail when I get back on December xx?" So you're either a thief or an inconsiderate dick. Both of which are super lame.

Looks like your good. I got scammed pivots for $105 over the summer in July? And haven't gotten an answer in about 3 months. His last login was like 2 weeks ago. I got ducked. Newschoolers can be sick 90% of the time, but everywhere you go trying to buy/sell there's a chance of getting scammed. It happens.

Alright listen up scamgod420, you did a real bitchy thing to one of our fellow NewSchoolers weather it was you trying to steal his skis or you where an inconsiderate fuck and did not tell the kid that would be out of contact for a while. (witch we know is not true because your last login was 12/3) Anyways the only way for you to come back from this is to make an apology thread with a special call out to our boy where you admit you where a bitch, and it better say the word bitch, and you give your most heartfelt apology you ever have. And until that happens you can expect to blasted by all of NS.

somewhat similar situation happened to me last year, bought and payed for a brand new pair of skis and buddy kept making excuses as to why he didn't ship them. i was chill about it seeing as it was summer and i didn't need them right away. then he stopped answering. i was obviously pissed so i made a callout thread and within hours ns managed to find out his parents business, left a bunch of terrible reviews (not what i would have done, but this is ns)called his dad, got him grounded and almost arrested for selling weed but most importantly got my skis back. shits a true story the guys name was JWANG

Until OP receives the package the problem is not fixed as he still doesn't have his skis. I hope the scammer sent them express post so he can clear his name sooner. There is no excuse for this other than being a complete twat.
