laz1969 Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Postal order but not the crossed one,so he would of cashed it yesterday Link to post Share on other sites
Chrissyg Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Right, well I suggest Wolfy, if you can provide me (or the other mods) with an address and the affected parties (if they havnt already got one) . It might just be worth comparing the addresses you have incase he has given a false/different address. Im also going to get in touch with a Global Mod in order to see what restrictions should be placed on TomTom's profile. Link to post Share on other sites
laz1969 Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 The address he gave me is exactly the same as someone else has sent me Link to post Share on other sites
Sergeant Bilko Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Did this guy ever provide pictures of the gun? If he didn't, how do we even know he has it? He already seems to have sold it to three different people, I want to see recent pictures proving he has the gun. Link to post Share on other sites
laz1969 Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Pictures meaning nothing?????i could borrow a friends gun and take a photo. Link to post Share on other sites

Connery Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Give it a little more time, doing brash things instantly isn't the way to go. Give him the benefit of the doubt to actually get back to us, he was last online Friday. Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Pearson Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 On a sidenote: If it turns out you've all been shafted - contact the Police giving them his full details claiming money has been obtained by deception. Link to post Share on other sites

laz1969 Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Really frustrating now as theres been no contact what so ever,steam is starting to come out my ears as my anger rages Link to post Share on other sites
laz1969 Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Someone on arnies must no who this guy is as airsofters are normally a tight knit community.......the guys lives in stranraer and plays at a site in dumfries.Info would be gratefully appricated in this matter.His name is THOMAS milligan Link to post Share on other sites
Connery Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Okay, now you're just being silly. Give him a little more time, it's only been five days, he was last online on Friday. Something may have come up and he cannot go on the internet. Come March 2nd if he has not gotten back to you, THEN will be the time to start doing things. Seriously man, you have to give people the benefit of the doubt if they have not been online since the day the item was sold for a week. Link to post Share on other sites
laz1969 Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Silly,easy for you to say........you have"nt sent money to this guy like 2 of us on this forum and have"nt heard a stitch from him. Link to post Share on other sites
Connery Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Actually, it is easy for me to say, because I once waited three months to get a gun worth 300USD. Came through in the end because he was never online due to the fact that he had absolutely no time between work and fixing his car to do anything on the computer other than check his email, and when he finally did return online, he profusely apologized and sent it out right away. So give him a few more days is all I'm saying. Link to post Share on other sites
laz1969 Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Problem being,he promised me delivery of the aeg monday this week!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfy Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 I would say an equal problem is the fact that he sold the gun to two people and accepted money from them and then tried to swap it with me. Whilst there is possibly an innocent explanation for all this, although I have no idea what it is, the fact that he has now disappeared despite being aware that there is a problem and with other supposed sales ongoing suggests he knows he has now been caught out and is deliberately avoiding this forum.

Connery Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Unless your postal service works on Sundays, I don't see how it's even possible for you to get your gun two days ago. If the British postal service is anything like the United States Postal Service (and I've heard from many numerous regs that they're nowhere near as "efficient" as USPS), then it'd take at least a day to process a package, then two to three days to deliver to the city the recipient lives in, then another day to process it at the local office, and finally another day to deliver it to the house. I really don't think that any of us will be of any further help if you people won't provide your conversations (with addresses removed, of course) with Tom regarding purchasing the gun.

Sergeant Bilko Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 What if something happened to him, such as he was in a car crash and eill be in the hospital for several days? I think sending out a gun would be the least of his worries. It's happened to me before (not directly to me, but the seller wound up in the hospital). Like Viper said, wait a few more days. A week is, for the most part, enough time for him to get back to you. Link to post Share on other sites

A week is, for the most part, enough time for him to get back to you. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> A week is a good guideline had the guy only sold the gun to 1 person and everything else looked above board. Seeing as he sold it to 2 people and swapped it with another I think an extra 10 minutes is over generous. From where I am sitting it would be a genuine error possibility had he swapped it with 1 and sold it to 1. But it is beyond the realms of believability to have sold it to 2 people and swapped it with another without there being a big old fishy smell stinking up the place. Give him till Friday then get all your evidence together and take it to the police. I am sure they will be happy to pay him a visit and resolve any missunderstandings.
