Wow, this guy started an internet riot

mudtoy67 · 11-12-2005, 10:15 AM

If you haven't seen this on any of your other boards already, and you have a good 3 hours to kill, you may want to check this out. It started off as a classified ad on Pirate4x4.com which went bad, and then went to an almost 900 reply thread with people finding links to it on a hundred other forums. This guy tried to change the price on something he had sold someone.....after he had already cashed the check. Then he tried to act tough. Then he got owned. Talk about notoriety, people are even talking about making tshirts about this guy! :insane:

I'm confused as to how it might apply to this forum or us.

mudtoy67 · 11-12-2005, 01:14 PM

Ehh, just thought it was interesting to see a bad seller get what they deserve. I've been burned once or twice on internet deals, but never got any help.

people try to screw buyers over in person..makes sense they would try to take advantage of the internet :insane:

Unneccesary. I'll come back and find this thread when someone posts one of those "where is everybody, nobody is posting threads.

I've been readin the thread (sorry nothing to do today) it is absolutely hilariously entertaining. IT's a long but great read. They really got this scumbag, they did some searching and know almost everything about him.

I got up to page 29 and I'm gonna finish it later. Man chucky better dissapear till he's about 60.

I am still waiting for a set of gears from a guy in Illinois. From April. I wonder if its the same fellow. I do have his address and phone number. Next time I am in the area I will look him up. Should be a nice chat. I have bought ALOT of stuff on the net, and this is the first time I have been sold a bill of goods like this.

It's midnight, I'm up to page 31, and four pages have been added since I started reading (from 54 to 58). I gotta get some sleep; bet it's up to 100 pages next time I check it. This kid's going down in history.

No one is getting screwed as bad as the punks family. Imagine it being your kids fault people now get "Wenzeled". I might have to disown him and change my last name.

troylaplante · 11-13-2005, 09:32 PM

I finally finished all 70 pages.

Dallas · 11-14-2005, 07:15 AM

At 73 pages the thread is now closed. Idiots put on post after post so they could say they were part of it and therefore ruined it. A very entertaining read.

Dale · 11-15-2005, 04:49 AM

Oh, OK, mudtoy...my bad.

the thread is closed now at page 73. It seems to have been overloading the server. Funny while it lasted and there are still alot of links off from it for those that are bored. LOL for those 4wheelers out there, its a pretty cool site too.

Chris · 11-16-2005, 07:02 AM

The thread really cracked me up a lot.

There was also another story inside of that one about how the kid got sent a bomb and he died from it. That person got really mad about getting screwed and took it out the wrong way.
