lodge it!

Lol apparently he's a pervert.

seems more like a BuayaKing or GoldfishMan than a con-man xD
ty for the alert

not only a pervert .. he's a flasher and a con man .. just dont let watever happen to me happens to you ..

he flashed you too?

but ok...
you got a police report yet?
talking is no use, just go get it done.

only with that can you really start tracing him via handphone, jpj etc etc and get his address and any related info.

come to my shop buy pups nex time
its reli abit risky at the world outside
cant test, no after service...bla..

sigh..
sorry man

well thx for the alert...

He looks super gay man !

Thanx for the info bro =)

LOL ... this guy.

I also kena from him, but I did not deal with him luckily.. He wanted to buy something from me, said he was overseas .. and 1 month time for him to come back, reserve for him.

Ok la i reserve.. didn't bump my thread.

When the time comes, no msg from him.. I msg-ed him, he told me he don't want it anymore. Not even a word of apology, only arrogance.

Wtf?

But seems that other ppl kena worse from him.. Beware guys. Alot of f***ing conmen out there.. I had come across a few unfortunately.


Bless those who are honest in their sales and life. We need more honest n kind people around here.

but why didnt you check the pick up during the day of trade?

no dissing anyone. but just curious

=D unless its the way the pickup was packed and all

Okies. Will keep this in mind and will see if can get it pinned on the Reports section as well.

he gave you a pair of pickups ? what pickup is it ..

later u found out its original Gibson pickup..then how..

You got the real pickups, but just dont have the screws? Cant just go get it from a guitar tech ka?

How did you get his personal pictures? Damn...he looks gay anyway

Everdying -> no la u read the link i posted up .. see wat girls say about him .. and yeah will be doing police report soon i just need to get a printer to print his gay pics out 1st lol

crazychris -> i was at the curve that day wanted to drop by ur store but i dont know where it was lol .. i know its out side the curve but not sure where is it lol ..

x-crusader, aaronc -> just making sure that no1 else kena haha .. np

skindred -> i was the one who warned you on jamtank about this guy remember ?

metalfreak -> well i dont know wat pickups are those .. he just said that behind of the pickup .. the metal plate has nothing at all .. no chops, no gibson word .. he said coz those are gibson stock pickups :s

blacktrix -> thank you

gapnap -> bro i dono if its gibson pickups like i said .. i went to one person's shop in ss15 subang square .. the guy name is simon .. he told me that if its gibson pups then it should have a gibson chop behind it .. but the thing is there is nothing at all behind it :s

winkybear -> yeah i bought the screws and springs .. which also means he ffk-ed me the next day .. and i dono if the pickups are really gibsons or not

redbustop -> lol i had to make a fake account on friendster and added him .. lol .. he fell for the trick and thats how i got his pictures .. LOL !!

Gibson pickup...

not necessary must have Gibson chop behind it ...

The pickups simon has ...all supplied by me

serious ar ? hmm i doubt its a gibson pickups thought but well .. i dono i'll have to get it repaired 1st lol .. sigh anyway can u add me in msn ? i got some stuff to talk to you about .. lol my msn : kalkelkil@gmail.com

thanks bro .. really need to talk to you

AFAIK...the only brand new gibson pickups without a chop at the back are the vintage replicas...burstbucker...'57 classic...
and no one in their right mind would trade 2 of them for just 1 SD alnico pro.

mr threadstarter, have u posted these info in jamtank? appreciate if u could do that also. thanks.

added you already..

actually



i personally know him lar (online chatting , that is..)

he used to buy stuff from me ..
he is rich as a d1ck man ...and he would pay RM9000 for a normal used GIbson LP Standard etc..
i doubt he would cheat la.lol

hey man ..dont worry about him lar..
you can PM people from jamtank.alot of people can track him / know him ...he is from cheras area..(when he is here)
try down4theartist , vulcan x

everydying -> well i dono man .. but it seems he said that those were gibson STOCK pickups .. and i gave him 2 of my SD for 2 of his stock pups ..

opfish -> not yet put in jamtank .. i wanted to start a tread in jamtank but the whole thing just dont let me start .. i click submit .. it says debug mode dono wat .. lol .. i tried it like 4 times .. after that i got sien d i lazy wanna post it up

gapnap -> hmm .. well he said that he will give me an ibanez RG when he give me the screws and springs .. he said it belongs to his uncle .. and he doesnt like ibanez .. so then the reason why i said i doubt its gibson coz if he have the heart to con me about his sim card then wat more do u think about the pups ? he said he sold his number on lelong .. i checked on lelong cant find any sim card being sold .. then i started to suspect something .. i checked lelong on the day i gave him my pups .. then the next day i woke up .. i talk to him .. he say he's gonna take the RG from te shop .. then he went offline .. like i said i suspected something .. i made a new msn to add him in .. i saw him still online .. dude wth ?

You sell that LP to him ka?

9k for a les paul std wow!!!
i oso wan sell him then

crazychris -> bro i wanna ask .. is ur shop just a shop lot or a building by itself ?

jamtank is pretty dead..

lol ts, i thought u're deal w/ him was so intimate till u got all his personal photos *WTS: gibson pickups + extra services *

anyway, done police report yet?

gapnap, just out of curious? did he pay RM9000 for the guitar? or he was just making some ridiculous offer?

well..not really..

he told me he was selling Gibson LP standard and ask me help him sell..

i asked how much ...he told me RM12000 ...

i am like ..wtf..u think i mahogany ah..

then he told me he bought it at RM9000 ...so wanna make 1/3 profit ..

This guy and the mahogany boss share the same attitude lol

lol i dont care wat he does la .. err not done with police report .. dono wat to tell the police .. the police wouldnt care about this online deals ..

you dont care what the police think, cos they're not gonna help much.
but as long as you get a police report, you'll be able to convince whoever you want to pass his address etc to you, like his phone service, jpj etc.
