bbunker - thank you for posting that pm. This information is very helpful as I compile this case. This is exactly the type of support this community needs to rally against scammers like him.
I would love to know what tracking info Joe has of things he has sent to me??? He sent me MY revo that he cleaned up and absolutely nothing else. He was supposed to send me an e-revo but said he wanted to keep it for his wife and so would add the cost of that to the total. Conversely, I have sent him, a race revo, a losi 8ight-t, two lipo chargers (1 high end brand new), lipo batteries, starter box, custom painted body, etc. All of which, luckily my law firm's mail department keeps records of for 12 months. Oh, that's right Joe, if you're reading this.... I'm an attorney so I don't have any lawyers fees to pay either. I can draft the complaint myself and, as it's small claims, can represent myself even though not licensed in Michigan.
Also, wanted to thank the offers for the people who live in or around Jackson who can help. It is greatly appreciated.
Also, in regards to his comment about this being a "trade" and no cash being involved... please see the PM below that I received from him as just one of the numerous examples of him confirming that this ended up being a cash deal...in fact (in addition to admitting that he was falsifying receipts and defrauding Hitech)... he even uses the word "cash" haha...

I also have 3 more here to send to him so I'll deffinately have some cash to pay you forsure. Again man sorry for the wait but the taxes crap is holding up more than you know and I know you have bills too so I'm working on getting you paid asap. If you could use any of those servos let me know as we can work it that way too as soon as I get anything sold you'll have cash! "
