The , to put it kindly, dishonest guy selling parts etc. in the Barkeyville Clintonville area of Pennsylvania is still
out there so be careful who you buy from.
I do want to stress though, that there are some very honest sellers in the area as well, I'm sure.
I have watched a situation unfold where he sold a trusting young teen an engine. The teen is one of the nicest, hard working,
honest kids you'll ever want to meet. He took all the money he had and gave it to this guy in return for an engine. Now a
person doesn't warranty parts like this as rule but when it was installed and turned out to be junk from the first time it
was started, it is a different story. The kids father called the seller up to explain the problem and see if they could work
something out. Now is when the seller showed his true colors. Too bad he says. No guarantee. I'm not taking it back but he
offered to sell them another one. Hmmm. Yeah, right. Some time went by and eventually he said he give part of the money back.
Well, they were going to take it and cut their losses. Well, now it seems he won't do that either.
Now a guarantee is one thing but a person can't sell something that is junk and say it's good. If it went bad 5 minutes
after is was installed it would be a different story but this was junk from the start. This is theft by deception.
This type of person has to be the lowest of the low life to pull something like this and I'm certain he has done this in
the past and will do it again.
There was no , I'm sorry for the problem. No, well I made a mistake. No, We'll try and work something out. Nothing but,
tough luck.
I have been talking to some people in law enforcement and anyone having a similare experience should save all their correspondence
and get in touch with them. This is often immediately considered a felony as per the means of selling through e-mail and other
such comunications. Luckinly the teens father did just this so there may be some recourse.
Please be careful who you buy from. Like this person, they may just be looking for a way to take your money from you.
After checking into the legalities of it we have found that we can set up a website with all the information on this situation
so long as it is all true, it can be documeted.
I will be posting again soon with updates.
Thanks a lot and God bless the honest sellers and buyers out there.
I have been contacted
by some people living in the area of this person, who are indeed familiar with him. I am told his actions didn't surprise
them at all. I am gathering aditional information on this person and will be posting the transcripts of the mail exchanged
with him. All can judge for themselves at that point.
I will also be posting any and all information
on him soon.
