Alright well I learned something here. Thanks reefer.

The reason I am so frustrated is because I like to help people... I like to believe in people... I have given stuff to people before, but would sure be hesitant if they ended up for sale on here later on...

I can back up Jim's statements 100% along with a bunch of other people in town. I don't normally jump in on threads like this but I would feel worse if someone else got ripped off by this guy again so buyer beware.

The mods should look into banning this member as a detriment to the community.

I have met many of the Island reefing members & they are a great bunch. Luckily, we believe in the "warning others" about bad experiences.

JMO,

Anthony

I'm not sure but I think he's already been warned. He has changed his name from Red_Fire to Like Reef but I'm not sure if that's why.

Exactly! Most of the people here are great people. I don't think there should be a whole bunch of flaming threads with individual or baseless complaints, but when somebody's behaviour becomes like this, it is nice to be able to warn others...

He went with me to buy a computer.H e told me the lady said the speakers were blown.I phoned the lady a week later and she said there was nothing wrong with them and that she never said that.I got them back .That shows you what kind of person he is.Anything to make a buck off good hearted people.

It is interesting that a lack on anonymity is a good check on people's behaviour.

It looks like on this board if you rip people off you will get caught.

Kind of like living in a small town where everyone knows you, if you act like a jerk word will get around.

I just worry about the people who don't get warning until it's too late.

Not really, there is a person on the lower mainland who continually rips people off (particularly the new folk) and attempts to make a buck off every deal but no one has said anything about it...

If I was the person I'm describing and reading my post, I'd be advised to fly straight henceforth, because this thread has set a precident.

If enough local reefers get screwed by you, and are willing to post about your shoddy behavior your rep will get ruined... and no one will get banned for speaking out about you.

You know who you are... So do we.
