Glad you got your cash back. I got scammed once on a different site, filed a paypal claim and got my $ back, I always use paypal a nice security blanket for purchasing online

Somebody should make a list of scam artists and their info sticky in the for sale section.

That actually sounds like a great idea

it helps just a little nothing much, 'cause they're banned, those names not active anymore. now a day people move around a lot and with technology, they can create new user name with different email and IP address. So just be careful and research a little bit before giving out money, info...... Plus economy is not so good, there are so many out of works then criminal rate goes up.

This guy sounds familiar....mods should look into whether or not his IP address matches the user from this thread:

He pulled identical scams.
Could FishNdChips be the same as Cichlidmania ????

Both accounts have been banned. And yes, they are the same. Thanks for pointing that out. I left it discreet earlier until the staff revokes access of both accounts.

Buyers beware. As already advised, please be sure you check all details of the seller before you commit to buying his products. Check carefully feedback (ALWAYS leave your positive/negative feedback to the vendor/seller regardless of how useful/useless you think the system is), post activity, location, history and connections.

quite a bit of exaggeration don't you think ? ....would you drive cross country for the right fish ? ....there are plenty of trustworthy members here that I wouldn't hesitate to do business with at any given moment.
...and fyi ...the biggest scams I heard of, on this site, were the work of website vendors at that time (such as massive aggression).
the key is to buy from reputable sources (both members and vendors) instead of dealing with anyone just for the sake of saving few pennies.

LOL, yes I drive all the way to San Jose (2 n half hours for vietnamese sandwiches) and have driven to LA (3 n half hours for fishes). My GF and I love to drive. We drive 3 hours to Morro Bay just to eat BBQ oysters. Heck some people drive 6-7 hours to Vegas to play video games HAHAHA and they have to pay to play it too.

Everything is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it. Buying a $10 fish but add $90 for shipping is an awesome example. Yup $90 is what Jeff Rapps quoted me for shipping but I haven't found a fish worth that yet. He's an awesome vendor with a great reputation.

I was the guy who bought the 2 fluvals from this person. As soon as payment was sent, it showed up shipped on paypal...this should have alarmed me at first but he said he was just 'marking' it down.... I guess I'm pretty gullible....

I was they guy he was trying to get money from by Tuesday (first in line). I told him to sell them to the next dude in line since I didn't get my tax check until Friday, so he did.. That must have been you. I asked him not to hold them for me but he said no less than 3 times they were being held for me and I was put off a little by that.. I had the $$$, something just didn't feel right. Got to trust your gut sometimes. I happy you got your money back.
