I Pm'd superman-01 about a videocard he had for sale and left my phone number. He called me later on that night and we arranged to meet the same night. We exchanged many phone calls back and forth between this time and on the way, i had no problem contacting him.
We met up, everything appeared to be in good shape. I paid him for the card, he told me to CALL HIM if i had any problems.
I took the card directly home, installed it the fan was making a horrible noise and within a minute or so completely died (the fan). I called the seller (within an hour after meeting him) and he picked up and hung up on me. I sent him a PM notifying him of the problem and went to bed with a bad feeling in my stomach.
Next day i called him at all different times from different phone numbers, once he heard it was me would hang up. His response to the PM was that it was working when he pulled it out, and that i should RMA it. RMA a card that i bought because it was convenient and advertised in working condition?
In almost every single PM i sent him, i asked him to contact me, left my phone number and name. He said he did not want to talk on the phone because he would get mad. What was there to get mad about? He admittedly said he was ignoring / blocking my calls.
In the end the seller REFUSED to take back the card, and also refused to pay for the new heatsink and fan required. He informed me that he should not even give me **** because i posted this publicly after i was unable to contact him by phone, and he was online, read a pm and did not respond to it. I ended up being forced to take a partial amount of the heatsink and fan which was not acceptable and he knows this.
He let me know in pm's that he did not care about his rep (I don't give a **** about my rep)
I have posted negative heatware for him

Turtletrax has also had pretty much the same problem with this user, so it seems that it is a trend with him.
Why does RFD need users like this that don't care about their rep or the items they sell or the people they sell them to.
I recommend he be removed / banned from the forum to protect future users from having the same problems.
I have contacted a MOD but have not heard back yet, maybe the mod who closed the FS thread could contact me please?
Anyhow, thanks for reading this post and have a Happy New Years!
