Re: More bad karma within our hobby re: Fraser Kittson from Sturgeon Falls area. scammers are everywhere..... hell even a close relative could be one of them There are ways to avoid getting scammed paypal (NO GIFT) is one of them Ebay itself is safe but many many many horror stories maybe 90% more than we will ever see on rc canada Nothing to do with rccanada always sad to hear this still happening in 2014..... but criminals are criminals for a reason |

Re: More bad karma within our hobby re: Fraser Kittson from Sturgeon Falls area. Agreed. Just sold a not RC older FM radio on Ebay and the New Mexico buyer claimed damage without photos. In the several exchanges I stayed polite and asked for photos. He swore at me and called me every name in the book, etc. etc. Ebay reviewed it and gave him his money back and Paypal owned by Ebay just gave it back, and he got to keep the radio. I am reconsidering Ebay and Paypal. Great for buying but not for selling. |

Re: More bad karma within our hobby re: Fraser Kittson from Sturgeon Falls area. Paypal isnt a sure fire way of not getting scammed. People charge back all the time! Best way is cash, in person, in a public area. All sales final etc. If you are buying and selling on RCC you should be looking at the buyer / seller feedback here: https://www.rccanada.ca/rccforum/itrader_main.php There are people in the hobby that scam, its just the way it is. You need to protect your self from being scammed and do what you can to not get ripped. Buy and sell with people who have feedback or have a ton of time invested in RCC. I have never been scammed by anyone from RCC but I have gotten not as advertised items before. It is what it is, I wasnt made, the difference from the ad to the item was only a slight difference, hardly worth the neg feedback. Use the feedback system

Re: More bad karma within our hobby re: Fraser Kittson from Sturgeon Falls area. EMT is fast and easy IF you trust the person. It is just like handing cash to the person. |

I accepted PayPal from a buyer once and the fee was substantial; when I informed the buyer in passing he was good enough to send me end EMT to cover the fee. It's EMTs for me now. I would have to be stupid to keep paying such fees. Just goes to show there are reasons for everything. Calling someone stupid when you don't know all the facts is a bit ironic. |

Re: More bad karma within our hobby re: Fraser Kittson from Sturgeon Falls area. That sucks Gary, I'm guessing you still haven't got your money back after all this time? Want me to go and look at the bike he's selling? I can sit on it, pretend to lose my balance and fall off. Dropping the bike in the process. I'm serious. Lol. I'd love to go meet this guy. He looks like a total idiot. Awesome for Mike to post up a pic. Lol |
