Default Trying to find TC3Driver

All,

I looked on this forum and he had a good post so I decieded to buy a car from him. Sent the money almost a month ago and he has not sent the car. I only got two e-mails from him regarding the car and each time he says he is going to send it. The last one was about two weeks ago and still no car. Does anyone know this guy:

[email protected]
name: William Graboyes

Need to know where he is exactly in socal so I can submit a police report and have it investigated. I'm also filing through pay pal where he is a verified member. I really hate doing this kind of stuff but what choice do I have. Any help is appreciated. Thnaks.

Yokguy:

Remember me? I'm the one who told you "good luck with your trade"... You do right?

Well I can say you DID NOT read the post from this guy, he meant to come to rip people off. I don't know this guy and I never cared about people's trade..

Well I forgot exactly what your trade is but TC3DRIVER posted that he got a car to sell for $150, first thought from me is OK, very good deal I thought. Then next day I checked this thread again and someone said "This deal is evil" or something with the same meaning, which he means its a really good deal.
Then the next post from this guy is "Evil? Do you mean too cheap?" This guy barely even knows what the price is for that car. I ICQ my friend to read the thread too and he too thinks this guy has something wrong..

I checked in the Rookie Zone and saw this guy have some posts.
This guy knows 0 about RC. Just read what he posted
http://www.rctech.net/forum/showthre...s=&threadid=64

I feel sorry for you and I hope you and the others to be caution about these guys before you actually want to trade with them...
If these guys got 1,2 post and wants to sell his stuff, be sure to check on him first..

Dudes, Just an FYI...the address posted on my previous thread came from www.anywho.com and has not been verified. However, the e-mail and work locations are AOK. Thx.

M5,

There was a post from another buyer and he said the dude (Tc3driver) was cool, he got his stuff. So yeah, I took a chance and now it has come an bit me in the a**. Don't need to feel sorry for me though, I'm following all the properiate actions and I will get the car or money back somehow! I've have all the info on this guy and I plan to use it all to make sure it doesn't happen to someone else. Thanks for the input.

Alright guys, I called the hobby shop again and he's still out sick according to the guy on the phone and I tried the number from anywho.com and no answer. I'll keep trying.

Maybe you should ask the Hobby shop dude how long he has been out sick. Then you could see if it started around the time of your deal. Maybe he is sick(hostpital?), doubtful but maybe.
