Your honor, he besmirched my ebay screen name on an internet message board where I may chose to purchase car audio items possibly. Thats your charge? And it worth the cost of a lawer
In 1997 I made my way up from full-charge bookkeeper to acting comptroller at an oilfield company due to the fact that they couldn't keep a comptroller. Anyhow, travel expenses alone would average $25k per trip for the attorney that we kept on retainer. If the case went to trial, he billed out about $40k per week. My point? It better be well worth it for someone in another state to sue you in your jurisdiction. Did you besmirch him with business you were doing in New York? No? Guess where he has to sue you? Taking inflation into consideration, think of how much that attorney would cost in 2012 dollars. See where I am going with this?
Dang it, I should have listened to my accounting buddy who went to law school when he didn't pass the CPA exam and is now a successful attorney. I totally chose the wrong field by becoming a CPA in lieu of becoming an attorney. Oh well, back to work I go. The good news is it should slow down after April 15th.

Well I hate to break it to him but it would be a Libel suit not Defamation . And he would have to prove that what was written was A: not true and B: that is actually cost him money .
So sure, go find some people who will tell a judge ( Well yes judge, I was going to buy from him until I found out he might possibly rip me off so I changed my mind)
I think he forgets just how much information is forevermore recorded on the internet. All those screen names he used just on this forum INCLUDING Adrianfocus are a permanent record as are IP addresses .
What you do on the world wide web doesn't just disappear after 6 months even if you go back and delete your posts or change your screen names over and over and over again .
I still have my one and only ebay and forum screen name after 12 years. He's up to what 9 for ebay and about 9 here ?
That guy is an idiot!! He has no grounds to come after you. Don't be scared of his empty threats! Thanks for posting to the form for everyone to see, scumbags like that guy ruin it for honest people trying to enjoy this hobby. Karma will find its way back around to him.
This is my hobby and my passion. The fact that there's people like that out there is a hard pill to swallow. And as far as a broken item (mentioned awhile ago), it's not like there is a thousand of the things we like stamped out in China every day. The things we like were crafted with care, and there's not that many left no matter what your flavor.
So when it comes to me looking like it was hit by a rocket, and the seller listed it "like new", that's just shameful.

Sorry, I may have wandered off point.
You are preaching to the choir here. Why do you think that I am so against procuring old school gear on eBay? Here is what my experience was with old school gear. If the amp looked like it was hit by an IED, it usually worked perfectly fine. If it was in mint condition, it usually needed some sort of repair. Unfortunately, 98% of amplifiers I purchased were mint/ish and had problems. The other 2% that looked like they were dragged down the highway on the heat sink usually worked fine.
All of a sudden, something BNIB, procured from an authorized source, with a warranty, and made by a reputable manufacturer isn't so bad after all. I believe that I abandoned old school gear because I lacked the patience to deal with problems.

I'm starting to get jaded with sellers like that. I'm also getting jaded over sellers who don't leave feedback even though I pay for every single one of my items immediately.
mayiborrowaquarter was on my blocked list prior to reading this thread. Can't remember why he is there, but I noticed his ID was mentioned a couple of times in the thread.
I have had many bid on my items, blocking the "buy it now" option, and then not paying.
Thanks so much to the OP for the thread.
Hate to see the knock on LP/Blues in the thread. I am a huge fan of LP, and have used their gear for years.

In my opinion the mods need to escalate action here. All of the guy's usernames on DIYMA and ebay as well as the guy's email addresses and phone numbers need to be consolidated in one post. Maybe even his IP addresses used should be listed as well. And perhaps most importantly, his physical address needs to be posted, as this is the one thing he can't easily change.
People like him are the reason people are afraid of selling things second-hand and are detrimental to the second-hand community. There should be a formal section of the website where blacklisted buyers and sellers are clearly listed in one place with as much information as possible. I'd even wager this should be a dedicated menu button at the top of the page!
Why must you keep bringing my name up without cause? You don't see me outing your eBay seller's account or your business practices every chance I get. I could tell everyone how you use shill buyer accounts, threaten to leave negative feedback saying the item didn't work while requesting 1/2 your money back AND getting to keep the item. I could tell everyone how you resell that item later on eBay via another account in a private listing. I could even tell everyone what your eBay seller's ID is.
I'll make a deal with you, you stop bringing my name up without cause, and I won't tell everyone your eBay seller ID. Deal?

The funny thing is, just as all your LP claims, none of your claims against me can be substantiated. I shill bid my auctions with other accounts? How do I do that when 99.99% of all my auctions are in buy it now format? Explain that one.
I would ask you to explain all your other accusations as well, but just as the witch hunt thread about me on DIYMA contains no factual information backing any of your claims, you wouldn't be able to provide any here either.
All of your, and your butt packing buddies, attempts to cause harm to my business have failed. No one cares what you people say, and the rational can see right through all the BS. My customers are always happy and receive a quality product. 95% of people I have bought items from are also happy. It's those 5% who misrepresent items, and then tell me to **** off when I try to return the item that are unhappy. Never do I ever request a partial refund. Never. Every time a negative feedback is left for someone, they have been rude, unresponsive, and/or cost me money returning an item that was not as described. Now lets see you buy as much as I do and not run into problems with 5% of your items. I could actually quote you stating that 95% of the time you shop on ebay you have an issue with your item. Somehow 5% of my purchases ending with an issue is out of the ordinary?
Your buddy jbreddawg thinks this is all a joke and doesn't even know the different forms of defamation. He is about to find out the hard way, as well as many others that follow after he is punished to prove a point.
How about this. Take your bipolar medication and maybe, just maybe, you will be able to keep up with what you type from day to day. You may even start to think rationally for once.
Enough with the rant. Back to the thread topic.

I would have to imagine that the reason he gets so many positive feedbacks is cause it seems he buys good items that WORK and then resell them. But as the OP suggested, he opens a claim with paypal and says it doesnt work. He gets the amps for cheap due to the paypal claim and resells these WORKING good condition amps using another username.
SO he makes a profit CAUSE he made the paypal claim.
If he doesnt do this then why so many usernames?
Why the same items bought then resold? I can understand one seller id and one buyer id but why so many and why all the negatives on certain ones?
HE is the one that will have to prove he is innocent. If he wants hi sname cleared he needs to come up with a legitimate reason why all this is happening with his ebay usernames.
What I find funny in all of this is that he stated that he was a Certified Public Accountant, which is public record. I looked up his information here: NYS Professions - Online Verifications and found no CPA in New York with his name.
Granted, I obscured my personal information, but would be more than happy to provide my certificate number to anyone who feels that I have misrepresented myself as a Licensed Certified Public Accountant.
EDIT: That reminds me, I had three tax returns come in this evening and one is HUGE. See you guys next week, lol!

Maybe he is a certified Douche bag? They have a website for that?
Hey Bret~ that website you mentioned is not oly for douche bags but it doubles for the biggest list of crooks thieves and liars in the US.
Actually that would be our Congress and Senate.

HOLY SHIT MAN!!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!
On all forums and ebay my username is (FRESHKRYP69) I have sold on ebay for yrs, been online for yrs. I messed up this account and had to change my user to (Dubstep). but its me Brad.
about a couple yrs ago i had 6 amps stolen out of my garage, 1 nt200, 1 2250 sx, 12250xtr, 1 600.4, 2 400.2.. I found out who stole it (a meth head) and wouldnt ya know it a couple months later this guy on ebaY (TIS10300) HAD MY NT200 for sale on fucking ebay! I of course had police reports and shit!
a lil thing about my NT amps. all of them have been modded in the same way by me using the same components to mod them. truely 1 of a kind amps at this point, NO ONE IN THE WORLD HAS ORION NT AMPS LIKE I DO! PERIOD!
that mother fucker did nothing but lie, about who he bought it from, how much pretty much anything I asked him. he refused to take down the listing. so I used my friends ebay account, bought my NT200 back from him, with a visa cc of course, then did a charge back based on it was stolen property! when the cop showed up at my buddys house. the ups guy was there and a sheriff.
FYI, while I was modding my 4 orion NT200's I got the heatsinks mixed up, (all the heatsinks had serial #'s on the sink under the board and on the board and the bottom plate) lucky for me the theives didnt get my 3 other NT200's!!! but also lucky for me I had the serial #'s.LMFAO!!
heres where it gets good, out of the 4 NT200'S 2 of them had the wrong circuit board for the serial #. I took apart a NT200 in front of the cop and ups guy (in about 30 seconds) i showed them the 2 diff serial #'s, I said the amp in that unopened box has the circuit board to this heatsink and vica versa that I was holding in my hand! I opened the box that (TIS10300) sent me, took that amp apart and showed the sheriff and ups guy that amp he sent me in fact had the wrong circuit board in it! If I didnt do that or couldnt prove it, the sheriff was going to take the amp..;(..BUT NOT ON THAT DAY!!! I proved this ebayer (TIS10300) was selling my stolen property on ebay, so he let me keep it! and I made 1 phone call to visa while the ups and sheriff was there and they instantaiously refunded the 700 bucks I just spent to buy back my amp that was stolen from me! WOOHOOO!!! Everyone knows im going to build a casket out of my orion nt's and PG zpa's and will be buried with them! Id never sell my orions or pg amps!
when (tis10300) found out what I didnt to recover my stolen property, he was a HUGE ASSHOLE! I said thats what you get for selling stolen property on ebay DUMBASS!
HOLY SH*T MAN!!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!

Damnit, a buyer won two of my auctions for NIB pioneer decks and when He receives them I get a hateful message saying that some clear tape and a label on the boxes have "ruined" them and he says he is going to file a PayPal claim on me and get his money back. The guy's name is Christopher Blood from Jamestown NY, and I was shocked when I saw this thread in a Google search of his name. His eBay Id is: poodipoo. Watch out, ebayers! Add that username to your blocked bidder list!
