Doesn't always pay to be a nice guy.

For any one who Knows ARVIL MATLOCK of wisconsin. Tell him I hope he enjoys the free Modified detector I sent him and I appreciate him not paying me for it in return.


Never again will I be a fool for sending a unit before payment.
 
Man, reading this flipped a switch in me and made me as angry as if it was me that got ripped off.
Sorry finnfoto.
 
Matlockarvil@outlook.com
, Only thing I managed to keep was the email. and the address says Black Earth Wi.53515 Arvil Matlock
 
WTH? Did you run into him here on our Forum? Bad deal man..sorry about that, you really do some nice work that should have been appreciated..:sadwalk:
Mud
 
He got the Phyle unit I just recently did with the detectorpro 8inch coil hardwire and retune. That little unit was sweeet for a promised $180 dollars. I even sent an invoice to the email with No reply.

I sent him about half dozen messages on ebay also. No more replies. USPS shows the unit was delievered on the 4th. No responce.


I love being a nice guy. I would have gladly given the unit away to someone who was jsut starting out or in need of a unit because of a lack of funds or a dissability . but to talk me to pieces and say they will pay you on friday. and then I know I should have waited till i got the funds first before sending the unit I just sent it anyway not thinking. He even asked me if I was on face book so he could keep in touch.
 
i've reported some spam e-mails that used outlook.com and they shut them down. if you contact them there may be some way they can help you on the deal. woth a try at least. good luck
 
Thanks Chuck for the Help. Will see if I get the unit by Thursday. I find it funny how after sending the email with 3 small options of small claims cort , a visit from the popo or to simply send it back and then He replied. ..


Will see is all I can do. I said If he sends it I will put all this behind us and we can forget about it.
 
I played "nice guy" to a kid in California by letting him send me $$$ after sending his machine. I shipped a clean Sovereign GT and he shipped an Xterra 305. He screwed me out of $200 and will not reverse the trade or answer my Pm's. He then proceeded to bad mouth me in the forum and said I screwed him! I will never give someone the benefit of the doubt unless I know them pretty well. NEVER trust "Chris K." over on FXXXXXX forum.
 
I recieved 3 emails since He recently replied to my 3 offers and its back to I am really sorry you donot understand I have medical issues and I will get it sent as soon as I get home from hospital . This started after he mentioned of going to hospital on the 6th and I saw he recieved the unit on the 4th I questioned why no response on the 4th and 5th . his reply was I was i'll. Sorry. Stranger thing is. he claims to be in hospital but the emails seem to be comming from both a computer and cell phone. According to him his heart put him in hospital. He claims he has no family to help him resend the unit back for him. So I get a reply as .You will get it or I will pay you.

I seriously think I may as well write this off as a total loss.

Is this guy Dwight Bonnie. He had the same story.
 
Well heres an update. Mr. Arvil claims to have had heart conditions opn the 5th of april but recieved the detector on the 3rd which I mentioned he could have paypal'd my money that same day or the next. he now since I mentioned of the unit and wanting it sent back to me. claims to be sending it back tomorrow and to not send him anymore emails. LOL


mr. Arvil will recieve an email every day i donot recieve the unit. He also mentioned I am going to give my self a heart attack over worrying about a measly $200.00 I said if the 200 dollars wasnt worth so much to him he would have paid me in the first place RIGHT???? again. No reply.


I am still waiting on the detector and will spread his name all over every forum if need be. He has also been mentioned to ebay numerous times by me. So people be aware.


Arvil Matlock. is the name. to avoid.

My dear friend claims to have had medical issues and had to have a pace maker put in on april the 5th. Yet he's active in the detecting field on the 14th of april with posting a picture of his 1/4 ct. diamond ring find detecting.. Must have healed rather quickly.?????
 
Sorry to hear that finnfoto,, The guy Sounds like a NUT!. I wouldn't give up on getting the detector back or money, (If nothing else aggravate him to you get your moneys worth) But it sounds like you are dealing with a NUT!! And that can't be a good thing. Good Luck.
