Anyone else GET SCREWED BY JtsYfz450? Worst trader ever

Here's the run down....I made a trade with JtsYfz450. He had great feedback and screwed me BAD! Karma is a Bish man, what goes around comes around.


Mancave, and TNCRAWLER both hooked me up with rigs for a great deal. I think they felt bad about the first trade I had done on here deal and GOT SCREWED (HOPE YOU'RE READING THIS PAL you know who you are kid.)


The agreement:
I would send him My Artr G6 and AX10 for an RTR Wraith with SEMI built axles. He was getting the axles in a trade from a friend. If the axles weren't up to par he would send his built axles that he valued at $4-500.

We were both supposed to ship Monday May12th I think ( I can check and verify with my txt messages) I was hospitalized, so the deal was changed to ship USPS 2nd day priority Wednesday May 15th (again I believe) I sent tracking. Nothing. Then Lie after lie. I shipped, my wife shipped, it'll ship tomorrow you name it. Finally he "got the axles from his buddy" The deal was then that he would ship me alum upgrades since his friends were 100% stock. So he shipped. (I told him on Thurdsday 5/29/14 it needs to go 2nd Day USPS because I'm going out of town for 10 days Monday 6/02/14. He ships UPS ground. Box arrived 06/03/14 after I left. I had to send my brother to my house to get it. He said after I shipped and he had traded my G6 to his friend for the axles. Then he said he just realized his servo was stripped so he was sending mine back. ( new airtonics 427 oz servo.)


I get the box, its a hacked up wraith. Chassis is zip tied and super glued together. No servo, beat a$$ RTR glued wheels and tires. The RX case is ziptied together. RTR radio is all jacked up. The buttons that adjust trim etc on the back were "smashed down" under the surface of the radio. The drive shafts were rusted and missing grub screws. The axles were stock as mentioned. The bearings and insides of the housing were rusted. There were screws missing. 3 axles shafts were bent. One rear lock out was cracked. One axle housing was stripped where the lock out slides on. The gears were worn, There was WD40 in the axles and allover the inside of the box. The trans output shafts were mangled. The rig was just overall beat badly. And of course no servo at all much less my new airtronics servo.


I let him know this was BS deal. He argued he said "them axles seemed fine when I sent them." After telling him what and how bad of shape everything was in he said he'd fix it he but was broke. He stated that he paid for the aluminum axle upgrades at the LHS and they were on they were on the way to him. Then oh I'll send you my built axles. Then he supposedly ordered the aluminum axle upgrades at a different LHS. Then he had to sell both his built wraiths to pay bills. ( then more lies, he kept forgetting what he was telling me through text I assume) Then he said the rain in Alabama was preventing him from working as a equipment operator. I said ok I'll give you some time.


Last Wednesday 6/25/14 he said he got BOTH wraiths back he was gonna send me a box Friday or Sat.He did send me a pic of one of the Wraiths that he said he wass sebnding. He said he'd send pics n a couple hours. No pics, no text, no box a week later. He hasn't responded to txt or calls or voicemails.


I was patient because I was hoping to get anything I could. It appears that isn't happening. I have pics of what I sent, what I got, and what I was promised each time he changed the deal.


He was nice enough to include the A$$ end of a dead roach. Thanks pal.

So thats twice I've been royally screwed on here.
Anyone else had dealings with this joker? I'll post pics of what he saen tonight..

I assume you meant to write "pics of what he is saying "

Reminder: Although relaying the general information of what's going on and conveying the situation in your own words is perfectly OK...
Publicly posting private messages, texts, emails, screen shots etc... of conversations between the two of you is however not allowed.

I know you're frustrated, but please do not publicly post copies of any private conversations.
 
if you know his name and where he lives, maybe find out who his parents are and give them a call.

im sorry for your dealings. ive had one trade over the years that i wasnt at all happy with and its a hopeless feeling for sure.
 
I would never do a trade without seeing "exactly" what I'm trading for first.

I would never do a trade without sending pictures of "exactly" what I am offering. This covers you later if they say they got something other than what you agreed on.

It sucks that you've been ripped off twice...I hate that feeling too. In the future though, ask to see pictures of the zip-tied and shoo-gooed chassis "before" he sends it. It can save you a lot of headaches.
 
if I seen that name trying to sell stuff "JtsYfz450" I would have ran away, that name says nothing but "hey I'm a scammer, lets deal" :roll: ....yeah that thing called KARMA sure got you "thumbsup" ....

Sounds to me like the original deal would've been too good to be true. :roll:

That only leads me to believe someone is getting screwed...you were too excited to think it trough carefully...and you got screwed. Live and learn.

I just got burned by someone you got a good deal from...
 
if you know his name and where he lives, maybe find out who his parents are and give them a call.

Note sure how old he is but he's a grown man with a wife and a kid. My brother in law is stationed at Ft. Rucker about a 1-2 hrs away...Maybe a road trip is in order.

Yeah he had good feedback from people, a few of them I know on here and trust. My buddy gsrcivic is local to him (JtsYfz450P). They have done a few in person deals. Jts hid the chassis issues in the pictures he sent. He never mentioned them. He also sent pics of one thing an sent another.

KARMA is a bish. I'd like to think I have good Karma, but we are all heroes of our own story I suppose.I'd like to think that EVERYONE i've dealt with on here would say I alwasy keep my word.

It didn't seem to go to be true. I was sending two upgraded ARTR rigs for one with upgraded (semi built ) axles. I felt like I was taking a loss, but was really after a wraith. I didn't have any cash and wasn't seeing any up for trade. He pulled the classic bait and switch. He sent pics of the chassis positioned so that the damage and hack work wasn't visible. We spoke and texted over the course of a week before the deal was actually done.

When I said kid above I was referencing Khalifkid. He sent me quite the hack job. Yotapane helped me out and bought it off me. Same deal. Sent pics of diamonds and sent me dirt. :evil:

The mods have been great in trying to help. But with a trade they can only do so much.

Then that is total BS. Make sure you leave feedback, and post a link to this thread so others know who they are dealing with in the future. Sorry to hear you were ripped off.


Thanks for the advice "thumbsup" Just posted the link in Feedback.

Yeah man I'll be back I think found a few places there hiring Firefighters.......
Jts shall now be reffered to as lord of the douche.....:flipoff:
 
This is the reason I won't do trades with people (or international shipping).

I sell stuff and buy stuff- that way I always have paypal to fall back on.

Never deal with anyone whose screenname looks like they swiped their fingers across the keyboard and called it a day.
 
I've seen the pics and vids of what Marc received. He totally got screwed.
Sucks to see a good guy get so screwed. All I can say is what comes around goes around. He will get his in the end man.


Kcco!!
