It's not about the money really. heck I gave him the blocks. I give lots of stuff away. It is a good thing to help out. I just want others to know who they are dealing with. Tons of great guys on here, just a few that I wont have any dealing with.

oh crap..I never sent you the shipping $ for that ECM..or the paper kite..:eek:

Please don't out me Roger..how much do I owe ya?

yeah,,it sucks that some people take advantage; I too keep giving stuff away anyway...

Thanks for the heads up, Bax. And sorry this happened even if it is only for the shipping it sucks when good people get taken advantage of for being good people. I have been completely amazed by 99% of the folks on this board who have helped me time and time again with technical advice mainly and they have no idea who I even am. I hope that incidents like this don't affect the good will of guys like Bax and others who are always willing to help a Bronco bro out.

I'm with Alan, I hate that someone has taken advantage of your generosity...that sucks.

I had the same thing happen to me. I gave a guy an MC2100 carb for free, asked for the shipping money, it never came. Oh well, if people want to loose all credibility over a few bucks, I'm not going to sweat it.

You're a great guy and I sure do appreciate what you've done for me and others on here!

Thanks for the heads up!

You also never charged me shipping for that set of heads I got from you. I think You got a few more packages coming. Plus I gave you that stuff, you never asked for it. The ECM was to help get that flatie running. How is that dead project coming along?

I've been burned from a member here that doesn't post much, and another that does. What the parts were or what direction they were coming from or going to is irrelevant. 99% of the members are a great bunch ready with a helping hand or advice. I give more stuff away than I sell as I'll always need help in one way or another...Just this past weekend I gave away a set of Taurus SHO powered seats, a set of aluminum turbine wheels and a 3 speed with a T-shift and twin sticks, to three different people...all for trade of goods or services I've received earlier...I'll be doing it again too.

Don't let it bother you Bax. Eventually he'll get his. It's a shame it's over such a piddly amount...

Now if it was for $200, now THERE'S a reason to get a mob going!!!! ;D

It's interesting that "mitch" posted on the forum last night, but hasn't defended himself in this thread.

I buy a lot of stuff here and I hate to hear of deadbeats, but I appreciate the heads-up.
