Has anything been worked up with that "thing" you were working on? LMK. I may need another angle. Being patient doesn't seem to be working.

The night before I left I packed my stuff up and thought about bringing my .45 along just in case. It was at that point I called it off. Not worth it as everything pointed to a shady transaction. Unfortunately all of these motors look like warranty cores. There is some very sketchy **** going on north of Detroit.

I had to call my credit card co. to get my cash back as he was not willing to refund.

I have just received some REALLY disheartening news. A little birdy just told me that Mr. Payne is still scamming on this board. He apparently is using another name to sell. I was also just told that Mr. Payne (the same one that is having money problems and can't pay everyone back) JUST BOUGHT A MOTHER ******* CADILLAC!

I'm pissed.

So....I just called my credit card company. I told them the long drawn out story and what happened. I told them what I received, what condition it was received in, and we settled on the fact that I got half of what I originally paid for. They refunded my credit card, and are now in the process of contacting Mr. Payne.

IF YOU PAID WITH A CREDIT CARD, CALL THEM AND TELL THEM WHAT HAPPENED! THEY WILL BE ABLE TO REFUND YOU THE MONEY AND GO AFTER CRAIG FOR THE BALANCE.

Enjoy your Cadillac.

He is using 2 Paypal accounts. The one almost everyone used was CraigPayneWS6@gmail.com . That one obviously doesn't work anymore because he has had so many claims on it. He is now using one of his "friends" accounts. It is vinchenzo89@yahoo.com . Lets hope that him screwing up someone else Paypal will help in nailing his ***.

J, no one responded with the info, so I left it alone. You just did the best thing you could have done with the CC company. I hope you got all of your money back. With all the claims against him, I doubt he will be able to reverse a single chargeback. Let Paypal take him to court.

Im surprised he still has not learned his lesson. If for some reason I didnt get my cash back, I would have hunted him down for sure.

Spectre, what did you buy from him? I used the first paypal address btw.

I also saved these pics from this thread of a "different" engine from a "different" seller with different mileage.



Same engine stand, same filler cap, same state of disassembly, same oil leaks... If Karma exists, this dude has some thugs with blowtorches in his future.
