xxxpipologyxxx--WARNING???
« on: June 25, 2003, 05:45:47 AM »
Just wanted to post a warning about this user. If he posts, or messages me soon telling me what is going on with our transaction then I will retract this post.

I posted a awhile back looking for a Track EMB. He messaged me telling me he had one for trade. I told him what I had and we agreed on a trade, an Ebonite Apex Aggression (which was used, thumb was plugged once, and he was notified of it) and $20. I shipped the ball on June 13th, with $20 cash in the thumb hole. It arrived at his address on June 17th at 3:07pm. He never messaged me letting me know he got it. I sent a few messages asking if he got it, and when he was going to send the EMB. He notified me that he was "on vacation" and he would have his maid send it. OK, fine. I told him just to make sure that I am notified of the tracking number, as I notified him of the one I shipped. Still nothing. I realize the ball only arrived there 8 days ago, but he has posted a few things in the wanted/for sale room. If he can do that why not return my messages?

This is just a warning to other users. I understand people have things happen and it can take awhile. So once I recieve the tracking number and the ball arrives I will repost about a positive transaction with him.

MarvinSkeleton - message EXCALIBUR - if he sent the ball to him, he should have the address.  That should allow you to narrow down the search some.

Yes Doug that is the same address that EXCALIBER sent me, and I come up with 4 or 5 names but not yet a address match or phone number.

When I purchased a ball from that is the addy I sent the money to.  I got the ball so it had to be correct.

Wow!!!

This is interesting.

May be time to send Mad Max and some of his veteran buddies out on a little visit!

We have a guy in our house orders stuff all the time from pro shop.

Last thing was ABS shoes.  Doesn't show up to pick them up and then shows up with a pair off the internet.

Pro shop guy doesn't order ANYTHING Any more without full payment.

Likdable very big guy.  Bought a ball off me a year ago and can't get around to paying $25 dollars.  He weighs about 300 I weight about 220. I could get it but it would be a tussle.

Likeable guy can'tfigure out why no one's very friendly to him.  They never can!

REgards,

I wouldn't lend him a piece of tape, or a glass of water in the sahara!
He never is allowed to bowl on my pair though I smile at him all day!

Matt,
If you are reading this, it is starting to get ugly buddy. You may want to hurry getting this deal with along pretty fast.

PLUS...one suggestion I have from you is do not buy on impulse. If you see something you want, (if anyone will sell or trady anything to you again) and you will not have the money....just let the person know it may take a month or so. Most of these people will wait. But do not stick them with something they could have sold to someone else. Be a man of your word.

Is that really the phone number? I am getting pretty tired of this and may try to give it a call tonight. Paul, have you found it yet for sure?

XXX  promised to buy a ball from me also and deal never was completed.  I would never deal with this person ever, after reading his history of deals.


Nothing hits like a BUZZSAW !

I have not been able to pinpoint the corrent phone number.  I can't find a phone number to match that address.  I will keep searching when I find time.  Do you have his e-mail address??  We could bombard his inbox with viruses in hope he would open one....  or maybe that is a bit too harsh.

The phone numbers listed come back on a reverse search to:
Wagar, David
6063 Catawba Dr
Fort Gratiot, MI 48059

and a secondary return to
Wagar, David
6063 Catawba Dr
Burtchville, MI 48059

Also of note is that there is a YABA listing on bowl.com for a Matt L Wagar in an association that appears to be located in Michigan...
Matt L Wagar  00010-0961036
Most Recent Membership Year: 2001-02 in YABA
Association Name: BLUE WATER AREA YABA *
Association Number: 23135
Membership Card Status
Date Membership Information Received by Bowling Headquarters: 05-01-2002

Call me a cynic, but I am forming the opinion that the kid has deliberately given false spellings of the name and a nearby address in order to make sure he got his stuff but without being able to trace back to the address using the name.  The noose tightens..

Both city/town names come back on the zip code, and a street search shows some addresses being in both locales...interesting that the Fort Gratiot township website shows no police department- looks like they are dependent on the county sheriff for criminal matters.

[Added on Edit:  The SO for the area is St Clair County Sheriff Dept., located in Port Huron with a phone # of 810-985-8115.  However, strictly speaking, fraud across state lines or that involves the internet is often viewed as the purview of the feds.  As such, it is entirely possible that a call to the SO might find you getting a referral to another agency.)

Oh...and I never did find a 6067 street address, but there were some other 606x listings, so my guess is it is a small enough area that the mail and UPS drivers know the names and disregard minor differences in addressing (I remember that sort of thing when I lived in a town of just over 100 people and hardly anyone actually knew street addresses).
