Troy Tempest Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 Good afternoon gents, I wasn't sure if I should have posted this in the Freikorp section or not. Paid a lot of money for this from a reputable seller, he was more than happy for me to post photos for consideration on any site. Does anyone have any views, good or bad? Thanks!

Homerjey Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 Hello, this one is anfortunately a easy copy. The original are made in better quality. regards Thomas
saschaw Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 Sorry for being offtopic, Troy, but would you please take a look into your email's spam folder? I think my e-mails ended there. ;o(
Troy Tempest Posted September 19, 2012 Author Posted September 19, 2012 Thanks gents for your views, unfortunately, the seller has now blacklisted me so I can't contact him through the site, and refuses to answer my emails. He has also left ME negative feedback, and unless the site management can do something, I look to be out of pocket $700 - very unhappy
OTTER76 Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 That kind of sellers should be pinned as NON RELIABLE on this forum for everyone to be warned. Special section, big red letters, photos of them or their locations & shops, addresses, whatever it takes. I am sorry for the negative outcome. It´s so annoying to feel yourself cheated , and I am really pissed off on your behalf.
Spasm Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 I hate this. Not that it's any consolation but I've been done and ended up with worthless junk in a similar manner a few times. Why do dealers do this? I know its greed but surely they get a rep and no one buys from them after a while. This keeps me away from some fairs on this side of the pond as I'll remember the dealer who did me and I don't want to see him again. These aren't mistakes, it's robbery, pure and simple. Troy, I'm sorry mate but you're not alone. Otter, I agree with you. I'd like to name these f*****s and help put them out of business. Every time I buy something now I'm going to ask for a card or contact details. I'll invite them round for afternoon tea at my house.
Stogieman Posted September 21, 2012 Posted September 21, 2012 what website did you buy on? Did you use a credit card? There are protections using CC for fraud. Did you pay with paypal? Again, there is fraud protection when using this site.
Troy Tempest Posted September 21, 2012 Author Posted September 21, 2012 I paid using paypal, but I mistakenly selected the personal box instead of the goods and services box, and paypal washed their hands of the whole thing. I explained it was an honest mistake on my part, and told them I could forward all the emails in which I offer to pay his paypal fee, as well as the Trade Me site fee, and ask for his paypal address which he provided, as well as a link to the sale on the Trade Me site, all of which would show and prove that the payment was indeed for goods and services, but they just keep replying that personal payments can't be contested by paypal. Very disappointing.
Spasm Posted September 21, 2012 Posted September 21, 2012 I like his comments on your feedback "I would hardly call a couple of random comments from unknown people with no credentials who have only seen photos conclusive proof of anything, buyers remorse is what i call it. Even so perhaps you should contact *********** who sold it to me as original or perhaps whoever sold it to him...as i bought it as original and merely resold the item on. My overwhelmingly positive feedback speaks for itself your negative feedback does not bother me." liar, liar, pants on fire
Troy Tempest Posted September 21, 2012 Author Posted September 21, 2012 Yes, that is particularly galling, seeing as how his money back guarantee was based on whether it passed scrutiny on WAF or not, and then when it didn't, all of a sudden, it was meaningless what the know-nothings on WAF thought.

I know his name from the paypal transaction, it's James Moore, and he lives in Christchurch City, Canterbury, New Zealand. He trades on the New Zealand site Trade Me under the username collbelle. I trade under panzermeister, you can find him through my feedback.

What a disgusting behavior!
army historian Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 Is it possible to get him on mail fraud - did he send it through the mail? I got bunt by Picardy Antiques Ltd, paid for and never got.
