Default FL_Cracker, where are my heads???

I am not sure if this is needed or if there has been a miscommunication. Either way I paid for heads on May 24, 2012 and have yet to receive them. There have been issues with FL_Cracker about this transaction before I purchased the heads. The issue seemed to have been resolved. That is explained in this thread...

https://ls1tech.com/forums/negative-...t-springs.html

I called and talked to this guy before sending him the money, everything seemed legit. I used Paypal and sent him $450 but it locked the account, and could have left it locked for up to 21 days. He claimed he needed to use the account and couldn't have it locked down. After a few conversations I agreed to "Gift" the money so it wouldn't lock the account. He claimed he was leaving for his job on an oil rig the next day and would not have cell phone service for the next week or so and that day was the last day he would have to ship the heads. Its been just shy of 4 weeks now and I haven't heard anything. His phone is dead, I have messaged him on here and gotten no response, I emailed him at the address I paypal'd the money to and got nothing back. He has not been on ls1tech since I sent the money. Maybe this will be resolved soon, maybe I got scammed. I will send him a link to this thread so if it is resolved he can defend himself. Otherwise I will keep the thread updated with whatever I find out.

Default Gifted money

Why would anybody gift money to someone they have never dealt with in the past? Chalk it up to a lesson learned cuz you're never seeing the heads or any of that money again.

It doesn't lock up the account, just the $450.
