Beware of NanceWayne - CueKOTE - Wayne Nance

I recently posted a thread in the WTB section of this site and was PM'd by Wayne to let me know that he had a Predator fancy SP butt for sale. Wayne stated that other than a hairline crack in the butt ring, the cue was in good condition with only normal wear and tear. Based on this information, I agreed to purchase the butt. I received the cue and quickly noticed that there were significant issues with the forearm. The inlays were raised and one even appears to have broken the finish. There was also significant discoloration of the butt collar. None of this was disclosed prior to the purchase and now that he has the $, Wayne has decided to not respond to any inquiries. I've PM'd him and he's been on the site a number of time since my PM was sent and I also attempted to contact him via Paypal, with no response. This left me with no other option than to escalate the Paypal claim. I did also want to make anyone else who has started a WTB thread to be cautious dealing with Wayne as they may end up in a similar situation. I posted this here because it appears that Wayne doesn't post any of his cues in the for sale section but only seems to contact folks that start threads in this section of the site.
 
I posted a WTB and received messages from him. I didn't end up buying from him because he was extremely rude.

Yeah, it's been quite a welcome. You should have mentioned you were on the site's welcoming committee. I'm sure AZBilliards is thrilled to have someone like you trying to take advantage of their newer members. It is nice to see that you don't dispute any of what I posted though. You send someone a cue that was not as described, which you've apparently done before, and your argument against that is they are a new member to the site. Even a "Newbie" can identify raised inlays and gaps in the finish yet your representation of the cue is "It is in great used condition". You're doing a fine job of representing the site!
 
HELP !
...just trying to be friendly (which is more than you are !)

I'm sure once the other AZ'rs on the Forum get to know you,
you will certainly be welcomed?
