what i dont understand is jforney36 has activity today at 725 pm. if there is a problem come on here and say your cue will go out monday ect...
the fact that there is activity is unexceptable.
truth is even if the cue is send out and received in perfect condition he is still dead to some azers the smart ones anyway.
i for one do not buy on az anymore. i sell when i absolutely need too. unless its about 10-15 ppl i trust i dont even bother
sad sad times

I was the winner of JFORNEY36's raffle of fancy tooled Justis case few weeks ago. I received the case in mint condition.
I hope this is just a miscommunication between both parties and JFORNEY36 can stand up to solve this issue asap.
Good luck to you!

Actually if you're selling, you're at much lower risk. Just make sure not to use paypal if you're worried. It's usually the buyers that get burnt.
It's saddening that people are resorting to such despicable methods to get some cash. This is how the world becomes a more F***ed place.. as bad as it already it. People start doubting everyone else, and the chain goes on. Its seems that integrity these days mean absolutely nothing to some people. They are just pathetic. *rant out*

Yes it happens and that sucks.......... but..........if you do a little homework, check out a sellers past deals, iTrader, posts, etc... It can help determine who to deal with and who not to deal with.
If you are still apprehensive on the deal, just use ESCROW !!!!!
Costs a bit more, but wouldn't you rather spend an additional $50 or so to make sure you don't lose thousands???
Just my .02

I totally agree on escrow, but imagine, Escrow on anything below... well... maybe $300 is essentially not worth it. $50 extra = $350 on the item purchase. It's no big figure, but to students and such, $50 is kinda substantial. Sometimes, we (I'm a student) are the ones burnt by all these, and the money we saved just to buy a nice cue goes down the drain due to some scumbag.
If the cue is worth a lot more, escrow is definitely the way to go! iTrader ratings does give an indication, but look at JFORNEY36 for an example, he has 26 iTrader rating @ 100%. Unless we watch the forums regularly, and know the user's history or make an active point to research on the trader, it's just not that easy sometimes.
I guess it just boils down to how lucky we are to trade with someone whom has integrity or not.
*rant out*
P/s: Thanks for the rep Russ

One would think that 25+ positive Itrader feedbacks would lend to credibility.
Strange that someone that actively hawks their stuff here hasn't bothered to enlighten us in this thread
that's had 3000+ views and 50+ posts.

I know, when i purchased a cue recently, i wanted to go through you as escrow, but the seller refused. I wanted the cue so badly that i actually didn't do the escrow. Thankfully, the seller was a man of his words (although with 0 iTrader rating, which jingled my "spidey sense"). He was great to deal with. I'm one of the lucky ones.
$50 factors in the extra postage, and the extra fees incurred via paypal or something along those lines. The fact that i'm not located in the states also does make things a tad bit harder and slightly more expensive.
For a $600 cue.
Paypal @ 3% = $18
Extra domestic shipping with insurance (I'm guessing) = $15?
Escrow service = $20
Added = $53
Do correct me for the shipping, but $18 for paypal and $20 for Escrow = $38, and the extra shipping... makes perfect reasoning for $50.
Also to add, TT/western union fees (and WU exchange rate is quite bad) would be all right if the item is expensive, but not so for something cheaper.
EDIT: I just realized something stupid in my calculation, $300 cue would be $9 bucks for paypal.
$20+9 + extra shipping and postage+insurance. Would it amount to $50?
DOH. Brain's not really working.. but yeah... you get my drift.

I just can't believe he has had activity on here and not responded in this thread. I'm sorry, but if I saw my name in a thread title, you bet your a-- I would be there to say something. I guess the proof is in the pudding??
The next time I see him selling something on here, I will LINK this thread. Hope others follow suit.
What a shame things are coming to around here. We've (the AZ community) have lost very good posters over the last few months because some people can't be adults and this type of thread is getting more and more common.
John, what goes around, comes back around. Hope this gets resolved quickly.
