Default Blownta00 is ripping me off

I bought a hood off of Blownta00 on 6/9/07. Paypaled the money, he hasn't sent the hood, or a refund. Now he will not even respond to confirmed private messages. Just an FYI for all the good members out there to stay away from this guy. Blownta00, if you read this... pm me and I'll be more than happy to give you my phone number so we can talk and/or meet.

You think maybe giving him more than a day before ripping into him would be fair?

I'm sorry... It was June 9, 2007. TYPO. Is a month fair before I start ripping him?

A month is more than fair but I would've thought twice about buying from someone that says they just lost their job, or their wife lost their job. I can understand people helping others out by trying to get them some cash in their pocket, but I've seen this happen in a lot of transactions. People receive payment, they use it all up right away to pay for bills, then they have no money left to ship things out. Either that or they are in the middle of moving, their internet doesn't work, blah blah blah. I understand **** comes up, but if you are going through something like this, it is best to keep **** to local sales. I'm not saying you shouldn't have bought the hood from him or bashing you or calling you an idiot. I'm just saying that his reason for selling the hood, would've been enough to turn me away from buying it. If he needed $300-400 that bad, he was hurting for money. Good luck in retreiving your money or getting the hood to you.

I agree with you completely, and was even second guessing myself before I paypaled. The fact that I have never had a bad experience on the site prior to this in about 5 years was the only fact that made me say what the hell. I guess I should have followed my first instinct. And... Idiot sounds about appropriate j/k
