It's going to be a long summer

It's gotten so hot here in Texas I thought I would get me an AT Pro to get in the water to peruse my hobby. I found one, a used 4 month old one
on another forum. The nice gentleman had hurt his back and could no longer use it. So I sold a couple of things to get the money. I sent him a check,
but he had sold it to 3 people and I wasn't the one that got it or my money back. I guess I could say I did get it but not the machine. So it is going to be a long summer looking out of the window.
BEWARE of coinman Dwight Bonney Pacific Mo.
If anyone would like to give him more help send me a PM and I can give you his address and phone number
 
Sorry to hear that, what a low life, Karma will soon serve him well! Being you know who it is, and where he's from, there surely has to be something that can be done about it?

Is that coinman on here? I noticed "banned" by his name
 
Could be he is banned from the Treasure Quest forum
I have filed a complaint with my local sheriff department but I don't think that will get my money back
 
Bah.. Sorry to hear that. I've worked hard to get the machine that should be arriving tomorrow, and I'd be crazy upset if someone did that to me. Just might have to gut him with my Lesche tool. :)

Hope the rest of your summer goes better and that you are swinging a new detector soon!

Yes it is Treasure Quest as "banned" is by his name.

I read his add where he was getting out of it for finicial and health reasons, what a low life, I'm not even involved and just really irritates me that someone could do that to others?

To CONMAN! if you are lurking? I'm not a Christian by now means, but do believe we will all be judged by how we treated others, some how ,some way , by means of the good Lord, or just plain Karma?

I'd sure hate to be in your shoes, and how can you even sleep at night. Do what's right, and return the money to those you ripped off, if you want to redeem yourself or Karma will strike with authority when least expected.
 
Call the police in that town. See what they say? I had my ebay account hijacked 2 times! I mean they took over everything. They stopped my auctions early and offered my stuff at lower prices to the existing bidders. I was locked out! I personally talked to ebay both times. They said they knew who did it but it was up to me to get my local police involved! What a bunch of crap. They should have lawyers in house that are suing these people for the money they make.....

I have to file with my local sheriff. I live in the county
I can file a complaint with the Attorney General in MO. but they say I would have to appear in court in MO. I can't afford the trip to watch him get spanked on the hand.
I am hopping my local sheriff can extradite him to Texas which I don"t think will happen for $ 500.00
 
Thats terrible......i cant imagine your discust!! Makes me sick just thinking about it!....I think we would all like to get our hands on that POS .
 
What a useless SOB!! If he was here in Texas I think it's still legal to string him up for thievery!! What part of Texas are you in?
 
That is just awful.idiots like that ruin it for all the good people who sell items, often times at great prices too!
 
Travis Co. for me.
Again, sad to hear somebody did that to you, he'll get his due one day. Personally, I've quit doing any kind of buying or selling from the forums unless they have a Paypal account. I even had one guy stiff me for $7 shipping on a coil that I sent him for free. Said it had a hairline crack in it and he threw it in the trash. Was nothing wrong with the coil, he just wanted something for nothing and evidently really needed that $7. He acted like I had tried to rip him off. What?? Not that I needed the $7, just the principal of the thing!!

if you paid with paypal or credit card file a complaint with them.

Very good suggestion! I would give that a try. It has worked for me in the past.

Post up his name, number and address and let him answer a few thousand phone calls or visits. If I live near him I would give him a visit for you. !!! ( I think I'm a rather NICE guy). LOL
 
Mr Dwight Bonney at 79 Cedar Brook Dr. Pacific MO. 63069 (636) 257-3649 told me he didn't have pay pal so I sent him a cashiers check.
 
Jarrow, That is a federal Crime- Mail Fraud . If you got a Cashiers Check from your bank get the bank reciept , the account # or ID from his endorsement and file a Complaint with the US PS. Postal Inspectors.
 
Sorry Jarrow to hear such news. I see that he is posting this scam on several different websites. I hope things work out for you. Best of luck.
